I'm planning on heading down to kwinana tomorrow night for the last whoopass wednesday for the season. This will be my first time of any form of drag racing and I was wondering if anyone else is heading down there as well. Just so I can get a couple of tips from any of you heading down there as well, and someone to talk to as well.

Cheers

His would be a silver R32 GTR, and it would be hard to miss, cause it will be the only 800rwhp Skyline down there:D Unfortunately I can't make it, but best of luck. Most of the drivers are very friendly, so if you see a Jap Import go and say hi:D

Well i went down and ran a best time of 14.7 @ 152km/h. Does that sound right for a car with 3" cat back and pod filter? Damn I keep trying to pull good smoking burnouts but it just didnt want to do it. Maybe I should use second gear instead.....

for sure pop it in second straight up and smoke away

Ah yes the purple GTS-4 with the GTR rims I remember now. Sorry bout the nick lol. Thought it was a pretty decent username when I first signed up but didn't realise that someone else had a similar username. You used to run a RWD R32 with a RB26 in it right? With the plates "GOT BOOST"? By the way I've tried to get in contact with Prank about changing it but could not get a reply from him and I don't know of anyone else or how I can change it. Anyone?

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
