Wed. night Drags

[rev210]

Well I finally got off my ass and went down to the plex. It's better than ravenswood ever was I have to say.

First run 14.3

Second run 14.3

Third run 21.99999 ---- smoke that clutch baby yeah!

Fourth run 20.00 ------ Bang what the %$#* was that!

Vacume hose blows off thanks to me cleaning the engine bay and not putting a clamp back on the other day. DOH! At least it wasn't my turbo! I had no clamp so I thought it might just blow off again at 10psi so I put boost down to 8psi to see if the next run it would come off again. I managed a 2.1 60ft tho'.

Run No. 5 --- 13.8 / 101mph / 2.2 60ft. Wooo hooo!

Run No. 6 ---- 16 , no more for the clutch tonight time to go home.

For those interested my car has the following handicaps:

1) me driving, my own BO also affects alertness.

2) 100+kg of paper in the boot ( I took some pics of it )

3) Stock IC , ECU (I have no additional fuel management of any kind).

4) El' crapo 205s all round on stock rims.

There you go . You CAN run a 13 with a pretty stock R33, so go out and have some fun trying.

Well done mate:D

I recall saying 'put you money where your mouth is' a few weeks ago about the drags...

Well - now you have:eek:

[rev210]

BTW , Does anyone know who's white silvia ran that 12.9?

[JH32]

well there ya go!

well done mate!

[Gradenko]

Excellent time!

For reference, I ran a 13.802/103.68mph, 2.378 60'. Its all in the 60'. You would have rocketed if that 2.1 (60') run had of gone through.

So, gonna get a new clutch to match that flywheel?

Cheers guys.

I hope this encourages 'our team'. I won't be down the drags again (to race) until I replace the stock clutch (poor things done 90k) and get some tyres a little wider than razor blades.

Yeah I was running 10psi as opposed to 8 so the 2.1 would have got me a 'fat bastard' time. I speculate the ol dunger could have got a 13.7 maybe a 13.6 (with 1bar ) then again it didn't so we will never know.

I actually got the flywheel to go with the clutch, the clutch has been on it's way out for a while ( I carry too much in the boot all the time and try to race people on private roads ). I thought if I'm going to do the clutch I may as well do the flywheel.

I hope this encourages 'our team'.

You R32 guys have GOTBOOST running 13.7s, the R33 stockie team needs some revving up so we don't fall victim to every silvia that motors past. All the other R33's on the night were running mid 14's exept Rob77 he got a flat 14 from memory.

[skyzerr33]

great time dave

actually the weight in the boot may of helped the car squat more giving you better traction

you can't forget you diff kit, and refridgerated stock coola

great work. good to see another R33 in the 13's

Thanks mate.

In all honesty the extra weight in the boot probably did help a bit ( I had 3/4 or so tank of fuel too), the weight didn't help the poor clutch. But, really putting extra weight in your car to go faster is a bit wrong isn't it?

The diff kit is an interesting thing too , I have only got the back half installed. Due to my renowned slackness I couldn't be jiggered putting the front section in. It sure has improved things tho' none the less with only more potential to come if I install the rest.

The refridgerated ic I only switched on for the staging on the first and second runs, after that it was pretty cold anyway so I left it off. It was off for my 13 pass.

looking forward to a meet with a decent track prep

everyone was complaining bout traction last night.

that 13.6 or better is gettin near. 13.700 104mph

with heaps of wheel spin into 2nd.

new cooler is in and looks the goods.no more boost spikes

changed wastegate line from turbo comp housing to manifold.

Congrats Rev Nice numbers mate.

I'm sure you can get the time down at least 5-7 tenths with that MPH, more if you got DOT street racer tyres (should be 12s)

I still haven't got the concrete in the boot yet. How about you?

You machine should get some nice low 12's with all that new power you have, either that or a good 1/4 mile long burnout.

Peltier with heatsink 'devconed' to the bottom of the stock ic.

It's pretty good at cooling between boosted runs. So much heat during boost I can't imagine its any good at improving the HP curve on a sustained run. It's quite handy during hot days like today to minimise heat soak.

WOW.. someone using PC cooling technology on car's ?

Nice work Rev.

How much did that little system cost ?

Roughly how big are the peltier's ? how are they affixed to the coola ?

This sounds like a TOP idea.... you have any pics ?

I think I covered it pretty well on the freehorsepower thread on the SDU forum.

The peltier is a highpower unit but, still only 4x4cm. Its stuck on the bottom plate with bits of metal putty.
