Finally got the tyre pressures right and me sorted on the drag racing thing and late in the night we cracked the 10's last night at WSID. Our second event at drags, and it was on street tyres.

Exact time was 10.894 1.690 60 foot and 130.85mph Ambient temp 22C.

The run after that did a 1.597 60 foot but then missed second gear and then ran out of fuel and night was over anyway.

Off to get a roll cage then will be back next year.

Big congrats mate. I bet you're rubbing it in large time on the Zed-Boat forums. Were you the first in your little bunch to go 10 sec? Was there a wager or what? :P

Can you confirm the type and size rubber you were using? I can't remember what you said but I think you wanted to run 16" BF Comp T/A's?!?!?

Well done again mate. Are any of the other Zed's racing for the 10's workshop cars? I hope you're rubbing it in!

Comp TA street radials 275 50 15 .

Rubbing it in everywhere especially the doubters. I called Jason at Street machines to tell him I knocked him off the fence by only 4 thousands of a sec. Will be in HPI in a few months in the back as they have a delay printing.

so you did crack the 400rwkw mark john, I thought you were gonna ateempt it with 360ish.

Congrats all round, esp to your tuner :)

perhaps I should alter this image now...

Well done John from the DIRTgarage crew, is your cage "only" cams and fia approved. It seems a bit of a joke that such a well constructed and fitted cage does not comply. ANDRA shame bloody shame. Paul...DIRTgarage.

I agree. :bs!:

Congrats on the awsome time, John.

Yes it is a bit odd I can tear around turn 1 at Eastern Creek at near 200ks but need a cage to go down a straight and with the walls so close. Not saying CAMS are slack but ANDRA a bit strict, but then hey I have seen some of these hectic sick bro drag racer gear knob drivers drive. Cage I have is only a Cusco bolt in job. Getting the Groove Rider Fabrications special, including the strut tower tie in support. Yes still mainly a circuit car and will sacrifice a little weight for better handling for circuit.

Funky Monkey love the Zed Barge thing. Big fat and wide but with grunt.

Wreckedhead I am pretty confident I will run a 9 in my circuit car before you do and not with current motor, it is for sale as going VQ35 500rwkw and alloy block and 100kg less weight. I will be waiting for you in the 9 sec club. Have you even run a 10 and not on Grand Turismo??

    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
