I am still pissed i missed it!

Ex how did u pull a 13.8??

did u use that special fuel you were talking about last week?

I guess it comes down to setup, I ran a few low 14s, then got the 13.9, ive got really good rubber, good clutch, and I guess my safc is tuned really well..

mmm.. more power needed.

/me slaps himself..

Had some good clean fun yesterday!

I didn't run the quater, but it was good to catch up with Dave, and the boys from ICE. They put in some impressive runs, however i think Dave (leewah) was looking for more.

Came in the 555 WRX, which performed well. Clutch was still good for the drive home which as everyone knows is the week point in WRX's :) Just a shame we couldn't work the Boost out, there was a flat 13 waiting on the day we just couldn't reach.

Weather gave me the shits! plus everytime we got a break the V8's would start up, have a few runs, then drop oil all over the track. more time wasted. :D

Next time I will definatly have my car ready so put me on the list now.

Well... my Manual Calais Turbo... (a skyline in drag for the day)

i got a 15.021 @ 99.38

with a 60' of 2.599.

That was Disgraceful if you ask me. :Oops:

I've only had the car 3 days and i can't seem to get the thing moving. Any tips?

It's got a small AVO stage 1 stlye cooler.. 3" zorst and a hi-flowd T03-->15psi

So is it fair to say it should've been more to the mid 14's ???

My vacum hose came out of the boost gauge and it was busted so it didn't go back in, so i guess i would've lost a bit of boost ???

WTF am i doing wrong :D :confused:

I dunno.. I'm sad

Traction... not a lot.

I ripped a BIG :burnout: before that run but it still was skating all up first.

The ozperformace guy's reckon a 13 on good street tyres is possible and maybe a high 12 on slicks.. :D

It's just what tyres to get ?!?!?!?

Also... i had more grip on sat night (i swear i wasn't racing on the street mommy) than at Calder!

R31Nismoid, the thing i was told once by a tyre place is that u have to be careful when your lighting up the rears before u run down the 1/4

with most street tyres, theres a threshold point of temp, pass it and the stickness is not better than when they were cold

unlike slicks, street radials wernt designed for the track

i was also tipped that u can get treatment for street radials, its a paste u put on the night before run, breaks down teh rubber abit and makes it super sticky..the only catch is u probably have to put the tyres on when u get to the track and not drive up there with the treatment on the tyres

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
