Nige is up there with the Orange Supra... he gonna get banned for sure lol

That wouldn't happen to be the orange "650kw 10 Sec twin turbo street-driven Supra RZ" on the cover of the new issue of Speed would it?

I haven't had a chance to read the article yet, but if the caption on the cover is anything to go by, the car sounds (and looks) like a bloody weapon. If it's the same car, it'll be interesting to see how it goes on Sunday.

AND....if it has already done a 10sec. pass.....it will NOT be racing !

the ANDRA rules are clear cut and designed with safety in mind.....So if the car does not have a current ANDRA technical inspection sticker,and the driver hasn't got a current ANDRA UDL drag race licence. The car park is about as far as it will go.

According to the article, it's run a 10.91 @ 129mph at Heathcote.

Sounds like a long way to come from Melb to Syd, only to leave it in the car park though :confused:

Provided we're talking about the same car here of course...

is this car entered in "street car of the year"?...looks like no points for the drag component of the scoring for all (and that includes Dominic, TOF-55T) competitors who do not comply with the ANDRA technical specifications, that have previously ran a 10sec pass.

Well done Adrian, i saw new PB of 11.8 a top effort because you raced the loudedst car of the day supercharged 20B RX7 and do not know how you could have heard your engine for the first 60 foot.

What was your 60 foot because it looked to be your best launch of the runs i saw.

I only saw TWO06L run a couple of times, 11.2 the best.

Intercooler pipe blew off twice in a row resulting in a major vaccuum leak after the AFM. Car = no worky :)

Fixed that problem with an extra hose clamp and a shit load of huge cable ties and then developed a misfire but this cleaned up on my last qualifier which was completed without the bottle.

Once the car felt right again, I went out with the gas and ran an 11.98 with the car bogging down badly on the launch. Gave it a bit more on the next pass and went 11.85 @ 116.47 mph.

What started out as a terrible, shitty day became good things turned around and I went quicker than I ever have. I firmly believe there's another tenth or three in there yet.

Thanks to all of the people who lent a hand or offered help when it all looked very bad. You're champions.

Adrian

      Unknown sound similar to BOV on positive boost with partial throttle RB26

      Absolutely could be. I collected data logs from when the O2 sensor was still out and also after I had replaced it so will try to compare them. Pretty confident that the affect is lowered with the new sensor, will check logs at the same RPMs/conditions.

      thanks for the advice on the box... i was thinking the 6 speed was better for cruising on the highway but on closer inspection and comparison the Rb 5 speed box was not too different...  So the choice is going to be the RB25 box... if I can save up and find one at the right price

      Thanks Matt, yes that's what i am aiming for. Just going to apply the right voltage and grounds to the dash connector. Hence my search for these pins... any chance you know if these pins are in the same spot as the ones on the S15 Dash connector? as mentioned above on page 8?

      Yes, unfortunately that's the one. Signal was noisy to begin with; after driving once and looking back at the logs I saw pressure constantly swinging between 0-200psi, or staying at 0 randomly for a few seconds. There's a lot of good sensors that share the same look and feel, so don't presume they're all bad. I bought mine for 20$ off Amazon and I should have read the reviews prior, as it's clear they're junk.  I purchased a lowdollerr motorsports sensor.
