I guess by the sounds of it u didnt do so well/?

Nah I pulled sweet times... 12.3's the whole way through......whackit:

Well busted right hand rear coilover doesn't help plus drfit style suspension plus as paul said crap hard rear tyres might make a difference.... in all honesty though it was my 1st time and i am a pretty crap dragging.... good at rolling starts but anyone can do them..... before i ever dragged i didn't really think much of it... i know realise that it is more than just ruinning in a straight line! there is so many little tips and techniques that have to be done... so i admit it I am pretty crap, i know if i fixed those little things there is a possibility for a very low 13 and if i pull me finger out maybe a high 12... but with those little probs that my car had (which will all be fixed in 2 weeks :-) ) plus the fact that i will practise a bit more hopefully in the next month i might have a run down the quarter again... plus if the new gym job goes well i have a few little surprises and presents for SLY which might help me out a bit :-)

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
