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

    • The spray cans were in the "Kiln" room whilst I was preping the parts,  so probably around 2 hours to get them warmed up, the kiln room has 3 small ovens running at 100°c, 3 medium sized ovens running 100°c, and the large one I used running at 80°c, the room itself was about 28°c, I also spent a bit of time taping up the parts in the room as well, and by the time I was done I would assume that the parts were around that 28°c As for power, I expect a couple of Killerwasps up high would be achievable with the current mods, I'm still running the MZR 2.0 intake and throttle body, and there is a slight mismatch with the 2.0 intake (smaller) and 2.5 intake ports (larger) on the head, this intake is matched and specifically designed to fix this issue with the ports mismatch, the throttle body is also a couple of mm larger, OEM is 65mm, the Bosch is 68mm In the end it will look "prettier" than the molded plastic thing that is the OEM MZR 2.0 intake As for the LSD, it's the OEM Torsen which works fine for what I use the car for, plus, basically no maintenance apart from the occasional oil change
    • I was at Tunehouse in Marrickville (great team over there really know their VR's) , and I spotted this Very clean R35.  
    • Mate , I have the same issue right now with the exhaust noise , if you can tell me what your local guy did , I'll talk to my guys and see if they can do the same. Power is good but it just too loud when put it down. 
    • The other trick I've found with wrinkle black is to put the can in hot water for a bit to warm the paint up, and to pre-heat whatever you're painting. It'll be interesting to see if you pick up any power with the intake, following with interest. Got a proper lsd for this?
