Swiper the Fox

Just Dave took plenty of snaps. Someone may have taken a vid...but no-one in our crew. Also big thanks to all you guys on here for the support and interest in the car...its much appreciated. cheers

I always recommend using a Nitto collar when using the Nitto pumps. They are machined to match the pump drive perfectly. I even fit the collar when using an R33 crank if there is any signs of wear.

considering it only put on 12 MPH from 1/2 track onwards and normally puts on about 34 MPH id say that pass was a VERY LOW 9. 8's have always been the plan. once we get a few consistent clean passes out of it we can throw a bit more boost at it and see.

Ran 9.5 last night at Willowbank at a lowly 126 MPH. The clutch air gap was too small locking me out of 4th gear in the deep end. Ran 114 MPH to 1/2 track and 60'ed a 1.37. So to run a 9.5 with 20 MPH+ washed off the terminal speed is rather encouraging. Big thanks to Mark and the team at Godzilla. The brakes and chute arrived in QLD today and will be fitted before the next meet. Bring on Jambo!

Nitrous is for fags who can't make real horsepower. (s/s)

the trailer plug was the pivotal link to assure the car would run a number. Thanks for your assistance yesterday getting the car transported to the track. Big thanks to Mark Jacobsen for helping get the car sorted for the meet next week.

turf it...turf it...into an express post bag and send it to my place. ill send you a 600hp one and 4 Edith Cowan's to tempt you.

Saw tooth or not ive seen what a Nitto pump is capable of...im not gambling on other brands when i know i don't need to. Id buy a Nitto over a Tomei.

calculated...you have PM.

yep...spot on

Reslo bought, or is buying the last one from the group buy...around $500 cheaper than the Tomei pump. The Nitto gears are designed and manufactured in Germany and are made from superior material than any other OEM style pump. If Reslo pulls out of the sale the last one is yours, if not ill contact the group buy supplier to see if they will do another lot of 5 pumps at the reduced price.

they are a saw tooth gear design...not a gerotor like other RB pumps. Saw tooth pumps are less prone to breaking due to harmonic vibration.

you wouldn't do it...seriously, pulling the donk and doing it properly is a piece of cake. Id hate to see your anguish after seeing the sump leaking after trying to do it in the car only to go through the process again to try and fix leaking again.

yes...good call. JW Auto do good reco'd VL turbo pumps at a reasonable price...they use them in some big cars.

it is a dealer fitted part.

ill take the cams. pm me your banking details please

ill guess it was BU5TER's. Hypertune milled me up some new runners with 1/8 NPT tapped bosses underneath to run direct port. Ive never used even my single fogger set-up yet...suffice to say ive never fitted them.

lol...$120 return...Jetstar FTW.

true...im flying up tomm. morning to run the car tomm. night. Flying back the next day.

some people pay good money to see sh1t that ain't there and stay awake for days...lol...you however are making money from doing it so don't be a sook. you can bitch slap me next week when i come up to sunny QLD

Ash returns serve very close to the baseline but manages to keep the ball in play

that post did 2 things...made me lol and then gave me a warm fuzzy feeling that my JUN pump may live longer than i expect it too. Nice one Fox.

+/-50 micrograms so within 0.1 of a gram

I know another recent victim to the N1 crisis...broke on a low revving engine at around 1000klm. The driver unfortunately didnt notice the idiot light, it bound the inlet camshaft, skipped the belt and smashed valves into pistons. Ouch!! I think the material they are using now to produce the gears in them is not up to scratch as the older stock N1 pumps (in Ash's defence) were a good pump. It took me 3 years of limiter smashing and 9000+ rpm launches to break my old stock N1 pump. It may or may not have something to do with the engine build as well, in the past if someone wanted to use an N1 pump id make sure the engine is properly balanced to an exact tolerance and i insist they use a proper balancer on the engine and i ensured it was correctly fitted. Mine is the only engine ive built thats broken a pump. N1's now are Russian roulette...not a nice game if you loose.
