Tonite was an awesome nite out at the creek with quite a few GTR's, a few GTS-T's and many SAU spectators in the crowd. Me and VISHES got out to EC around 3/4ish and we were in the first few cars to run.

My results of the night weren't anything special. My best time was a 13.1 with a 1.9 60ft time. Last time out I managed a 13.2 with a 2.1 60ft time. What this tells me is that even though my 60ft is getting slightly better my ET is ONLY dropping slightly meaning the car is reaching its currently power potential. Also my MPH seems to be the same between 104-106.

Anyway was awesome. I had 5 runs all up. One I got fouled out. And 4 consistent runs around the 13.1/13.2 mark. I tried launches at 6500, 7000, 7500 and redline with a bit of clutch slip, dumps etc. I found the best method is to slip up the clutch a bit and then dump it. Totally just dumping the clutch at redline DOES NOT work hehe but being the last run of the night I had to try this brake frying technique.

VISHES ran 14's all night long until his VERY last run he cracked a VERY impressive 13.4! :) Very cool VISHES !!

Saw JUDD there but don't know what he got? XCALBR (Black R32 GTR) ran low 13's like me all nite.... and there was another Black R32 with chromes with the plates GDZ11R.

Out of the 5 runs I ran 3 very fast rotors/V8's which were drag spec cars, also raced an E36 M3 which ran a 15.5 (bad driver?) and my final run was against the car formerly with the plates FEELDG... now with the plates GTR8U. He chomped me with an 11.7 run hehe...

My first run, I came up against a V8 Calais (REACTA) which side wayed so bad he posted an 18 second. That was the only victory I had as my other runs considered of 10 second Rotaries!!!!

I tried to transfer my street launch technique to the drag strip. Which didn't work!!! In my last run, I tried something unorthodox and came up short of upsetting Mr Yangsta!!!!!!! hehehehe

Overall I had fun and learned a great deal from dragstrip racing :)

Argh im sitting at home thinking "damnit wednesday night nothing to do i think i'll watch tv" (ended up at a chicks place) yet this time last week i couldn't wait for the EC Drags grrrrrrr. I've never ever seen a Skyline Drag at EC only those stupid Rotaries

    • Crazy how good the aero bar looks compared to the stock one
    • Yes, but you will need to rewire all the things that are different. CAS, coils, etc. Yes, but there is no IAT. What? You can use anything you like. It just has to be hooked up so that it will work.     Or are you wanting to just plug and play without having to do any thinking/work?
    • It's been a little over a decade since I bought the S15. As I did on my socials, I'll share some of my favorite pictures from over the years further below. If you haven't realised, pretty much all the pictures in my posts are ones I've taken.  In terms of updates, I don't have pictures, but I acquired a near-perfect pair of fog lights from a friend of mine, so those got swapped in for the pair I already had. As for the JZX110, I just got it back from being fixed. A few weeks back, I was on the highway when I suddenly drove over something with very little time to react. It was probably the size of a soccer ball, but it went under the car and banged into the underside pretty loudly. I pulled over and realized the fluid leaking was fuel, and of course, it was right near my exhaust. This required replacing the fuel tank. If you happen to be in the same predicament, thankfully this car shares a fuel tank with the JZS171, IS200, and IS300, so it wasn't too painful to replace. Enjoy some pictures as mentioned above, including the carnage from the fuel tank and a bonus picture I came across which shows how ridiculously shiny the Bugels are on the 110. So many more pictures I could share of the S15 but this will do for today, enjoy. 
    • Welcome.  Was the mistake the car, or joining us? 😏
