Ahhh yes , the Chris and Ken's Kalamunda to the weir thrashfest.

My speed cut is still in as well - sucks eh?

yeah?

so how come I hit XXX+5 and had long-forward-neck and then you belted past about 20 kms faster?

I might have taken my foot off at that stage, but not by much!

there was one point when we got stuck behind that 4wd and the car with the canoe on top.... I was fuming! but then we went past that multi and Im sure had I not beendoing 55, I would have been doing something horrifically not-55!!

Ken, Not a problem for me, I'll sleep with you:p

On the way home after dropping Aidwin home I was driving enthusiastically at the double ton, hard to swerve left and right to avoid traffic, then the car died, I will still doing a ton and a half! Luckily it was in a straight line. Was it just fuel starvation from the sideways action?

See'ya:burnout:

Died ?

As in rolled to a halt , sputtered once , dash lights came on ?

Be more specific.

Cheers

GTR's seem to get 200kmh before the limiter comes in.

Zanda - mine seems to cut in about 10-15ks higher than what your speedo goes up to, if you know what I mean:D

[GTS-t VSPEC]

Aidwin,

I think I still need to sort out my brakes, even once hot there not that great:p

neo

car has tein coilovers with dodgy-install usingone spacer instead of 2 to try and make it lower!

when it came in it wsa on 35s and was the lowest skyine Ive ever seen. pimpin only - cause you couldnt turn the wheel past 5.

have jacked it up about 5-6 inches to put it through the pits.

now seek to arrange a "compromise height".

[SHUTO-BOY]

i suggest get an electronic speed reader, speedo's can be dodgy

Sounds weird, sure you havn't got a loose terminal or something ?

How much fuel was in the tank ?

Brakes , biggest killer of speed.

Trouble with good brakes is they cost.

Go DBA slotted , Castrol srf or AP660 brake fluid with a good bleed and Pagid blue pads in the front with Bendix ultimates in the rear.

Adjust the brake pedal height to take out 90% of the freeplay and viola"

A good brake you can trust.

Cheers

Micko,

Yeah, I think the turbo will need replacing soon, then all you bitches better watch out. I just hope I don't need to brake:D
