Had a great day on Saturday. Arrived with two mates at 8:15am after narrowly avoiding the defect station around lake george!

My friend Andrew that was due to run his lj on the dyno at 10am got thrown on the thing at 8:30am so i was stoked for leaving as early as i did. He had some problems with the BOV opening when it shouldn't and leaking all manifold pressure after 15psi and peaking his power @ 448hp :D Not great considering his last years' performance of 484. As it turns out, he made the final 4 and upon running this morning, made 520hp and is stoked at being the 4th toughest pump fueled car there.

Immediatley after him was a black VK (?) with plates RAPID8. It is a twin turbo v8 that looked reasonably unnassuming up till the point when it spun up 1206hp first go!!! ON PUMP FUEL!!!

The crowd lost it and cheered till he ran it again and ran a 1097hp without revving it out!!! AWESOME! The Gold TT V8 VK won with 1300+ this morning after both cars were emptied of there fuel tanks, tilt trayed to the servo, filled from the same pump with optimax and tilt trayed back to the dyno cell! Intense. It almost came to fisty-cuffs when the suggestion was made that the Gold car was running the bottle but it was all sorted in the end.

HEAPS of girls with their titties out, (Hey, it was pier pressure that made me cheer them on!) and loads of nice cars.

Great day, Fridays must blow cos i had a fantastic time topped off with a trip to Fyshwick (sp) to top up the DVD pr0n supply :())

2rismo...i'm sorry i didn't get to meet up with you...i should've got ur number :D I guess you were at the dyno cell for a while then? we went in there briefly and caught up with Rob's friends who were working in there. Couldn't see shit though! Unless ur in the grandstand you can't even see what car is on! There was an XY and then a 180sx when I was there.

the looks are a matter of personal taste i think :uh-huh: :)

Note bullet holes from chillin in the canberra ghetto.

Here

This phot was taken outside Autotech Services Collie Street, Fyshwick,ACT

Its a member of Syndicate Motorsports, which is an ACT car club.......Maybe this guy just bough it??

Hmm, I"ll be quiet now. :)

I talked to the guy at the Summernats SAU get together. He mainly lives in Canberra but also lives in WA. He works in Canberra.

Bullet holes are definitly from chillin in da Canberra gheto, in particular Franklin St. Manuka and Lonsdale St. Braddon. Pretty tough hoods! :lol:

I remember seeing a while ago a news article claiming Richardson to be the bad ass gheto of the ACT. The cops bilitzed it for ages! Lock your doors driving through or you'll get jacked for your ride and your The land of goat sphincter rings chain!

Those Southsieed boys are real G'd up gangstas! They claim the front of the Hyperdome as there turf! :lol:

I work across the road from the hyperdome next to la prochetta.  Don't mess with them, or they'll wip out their skateboards and skootas.

    • Yeah, I don't believe the M35 uses a deadhead system.
    • Have you done your thinking backwards? 3 bar, 43.5 psi pressure drop being the presumed specification for an injector, means you need 3 bar upstream when they are firing into atmospheric pressure, and more upstream pressure than that when on boost (you add your boost to your rail pressure to maintain 3 bar across the injector) and you need..... less pressure upstream when you have vacuum in the manifold. So, presuming that you're idling at -10 psi, then you only need ~23 psi in the rail. I realise that I did not need to say all of that to you specifically Matt, once you'd realised your mistake. It's mostly there for complete clarity for others.
    • Have you reached out to the guys at Spool Imports? They are a Ross dealer, I can imagine they would have the rings just sitting on the shelf (I could be wrong).  
    • There's one for sale at Grand Auto Wreckers in Lonsdale (SA), for .... let's suggest the sum they're asking for will make you cry. You may have to embrace the idea of modifying the rear subframe to accept some other diff. You could probably find a way to wangle a shortnose into there, with a custom rear adapter and some sort of shenanigans to relocate the front mounts. This has probably already been done by others, so there might be some guidance available as to how easy/impossible it is, out there in the googles. But you possibly needn't restrict yourself to Nissan diffs if you're going to contemplate that. There are similarish Toyota diffs, possibly some Euro ones, possibly some Seppo ones.
    • The ball joint taper and arm taper have to match angle and diameter, but just doing the bushes is a much better option.....seems like the industry moved to "it is cheaper to replace the whole arm than take on the labour for changing this bushes", glad the aftermarket supports it
