Well done on the win and trophies :( At least you guys drive the thing like it was built for - street, strip and show. There are plenty of GTRs with bucketloads spent on them only to be dyno queens and show ponies.

Congrats and best of luck at Jambo.

Thanks Charlie....the jaw-dropping part of the whole weekend was when the Autosalon staff watched Stacey drive the car off the stand, through the auditorium and out the door home.....they asked me if the trailer was out the back, i said what trailer??.....she's off home!. Not only did she drive it home but also drove to the show.

Car will be driven to QLD on the friday of Jamboree....raced Sat and Sun. on street tyres (federals) and regular unleaded pump gas...and driven home Monday. No dyno/trailer queen here!

There is a car carrier spot available if you guys want one, but I think the drive would be great. I have done it in a slightly modded GTR before and don't know how I didn't get booked.

check it again :D

pm received.....THANKS :) phone call has been made, personally I'd much rather TWOOG's on a transporter than a road trip. I'd just sleep better at night. Although, a few boys around here (yes, 2rismo, that includes you) lov the sound of the road trip. THANKFULLY......I'm the one calling the shots around here. :)

Sorry about that, it honestly didn't cross my mind I'm not really into dyno comps

Congrats Stace

Its all good mate....thanks big fella...ill let her know.

was the aqua VL you were refering to, the one i absolutely owned in the street drags at powercruise. No point having all that laggy topend power if ya can't use it!

Nice work it will be very interesting to see what times the car does in true street trim ie pump gas, pump gas tune and street tyres (federals)

its already done an 11.2 in this state of tune....(Compak Attak)...had my mates borrowed stock box in , so harsher changes may have netted a 10...so anything better than that is a bonus....no point running any quicker....only gotta make top 16 with the silly rules they have in place.

the difference between the pump tune and the race tune is not as big as you think..

pump/street......................404awkw

c16/race...........................442awkw

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
