plex 15th


Recommended Posts

I think that the times all of the stock turboed cars are pulling are very impressive (Rhino, Works Auto and rev210), we are only a few tenths behind some of the guys with t3/t4's, must be that they can't drive, right Macka and Shannon? Just stirring.

It's good to see the times heading ever downward, will be nice when we can get some 11sec Skylines down at the plex and show the Trev's a thing or two.

See'ya:burnout:

The more Skylines that are biting my tail, the more ambition I will have to go quicker. I can almost taste 12's.

If you can taste 12s, im deep throating them nightly.

4 passes of 13.1 , 13.033 13.087, 13.078

Gimme 12s damn drag god.

Osc@r, Once I'm finished I expect to be pushing the 11 barrier not the 12.

The only 16" rims I've got are only 16x7, I have heaps of tyres for these, but still none for the 15".

RB20LagWagon, You were going so deep throat I thought you would gag, you'll need to get the 12 in your first couple of runs or else the clutch will end up slipping too much, but your so close.

Yeah my mate said they were for a silvia, so i presume the PCD is right. Don't have any pics, can take them on monday, there are only 2, so they would only be good for the drags, but then I could score you some better tyres, got some 225/45/16's in stock.

Oh i just smoked up my tires last night, i need some 17s x 235 or 245 if there is any available road or race, prefer road i spose i hate changing tyres. ill take odd sets of wheels as well as long as 4x114.3 16 or 17,s i need brakes badly

Its actually not the clutch slipping, its the pressureplate forks, getting rather hot and not being able to push the clutch face, or so i am to believe the clutch doesnt slip, it just doesnt let me get into gear

RB20LagWagon,

I have some 2x234/45/17's Bridgestone SO2's for drag use.

It's getting harder to get good stuff, but maybe next week I'll have some more, lots of people on the waiting list.

Glad to hear that your clutch is OK, hope that you can get the 12 soon.

See'ya:burnout:

You smoked the whole street...ummm..track. Well done.

Nankangs are good for something, try not to wreck these tyress before I find you a replacement set. Then you can smoke them up till your hearts content, I've smoked them at the 'plex, once they get going the smoke is pretty good.

See'ya:burnout:

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
