Coventry are the distributors I think.

Happened to me once on the track but never again. Worry about it if it happens again.

13.8 for me although I will have some new mods by then. I'm doing it then.

Muahahahaha. I will moderate you all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!112wqsedafdsxc@&%$*^%#$

I've got some RE55's already. It's not the same though I don't think. What if you wait an hour for a run then they are cold so you do a burnout and waste half of them then I wont have them for the track. I suppose I'm just whinging and drag radials would get half wasted doing burnouts anyway.

Not identical. Plastic/nylon compressor wheel on series 2. It's black.

Looks like series 2 R33 to me.

Well it's funny you should mention wednesday nights because up until a couple of weeks ago I've had a permanent wednesday night booking which has stopped me turning up. It's stopped now so when the car is running again I think I'll go one night.

It does but there's no one on the list you'd need to worry about. Me for instance.

Maybe a bunch of us should pool our dosh for 2 rims and 2 tyres that we can share. How many runs would you get out of a set roughly?

I will, I will. I'm just trying to ascertain the likelyhood of qualifying if I go to Drag Combat or something like that. The Drag Combat website has ****all info on it and I'm interested but don't want to waste my time if all that happens is I do 2 runs, fail to qualify then sit out the rest of the day.

Damn SnS!

Emperor - lots but not all. You have to look at the back of the deck to find out. P1E - I like that one.

They do have to change them to Halogens but cutting them out?!?!! That's bullshit. The xenons are your property and you are entitled to have them back in perfect condition. I think it is lowered a little.

Thanks mate. That's what I'm aiming for. 12.9999999999999 btw Do you guys find this sort of question annoying. I guess it's in the same vane as 'how much power will I get' but slightly different because an ET is an ET whereas different dynos read different things.

The manifold bolts onto the head, not the block. About $50 for the gasket and a large amount of work, so expensive. I'm not really sure from your description that that is the problem though. Can't be more specific though sorry.

Ahh sorry. I misunderstood. Don't about mods then. Make it reliable and then spend the money on tyres and track days. You will have so much more fun.

At my first drag day with 190rwkw and crappy street tyres I started the day at 14.1 and progressively dropped it down to 13.8. I don't think the tyres were much of an issue because I wasn't getting wheelspin off the line very often (about 3 or 4 times out of 30 odd runs). I will next time have somewhere between 210 and 240 rwkw and can bring some RE55 semi slicks if you guys think it will help. Also, since my car is an auto/tiptronic (and for those wondering yes I am quicker changing manually than just putting it in 'D', I tested it) I am putting in and will have for the next drag day a new valvebody which is supposed to slam into gears at full throttle. The guy making it for me expects at least 1/2 a second from this mod alone. Given the power range I have listed above, can you guys estimate an ET range for me? Thanks.

So where do we go to find out more about this thing? I have questions. Like what class would I be in. Similar format to Compak Attack? do we race against v8's? I'm hoping for low 13's. Is it worth taking a car like this to this sort of thing?

Have you done cams yet jimbo? If the forward facing plenum has a largish volume then I think the response gained in shorter piping would be lost again in the larger plenum.

Yeah the signal is not very strong. I'd get an RCA to 2.5mm stereo jack cord and hang it out the back into the passenger footwell. Connect your ipod there. You can just tuck the cord up behind the dash when not in use.

And since no one has mentioned it so far. Don't believe the k's. They are reasonably irrelevant. Just look at condition. I can't believe there are people around here that seriously think 40-80,000 on an 8-12 year old car is genuine.

I think you would need cams to get to 250. I am installing one in my car on the weekend.

Ok. So out of 30 people 11 have been and done. I guess I've learned a lesson and I will never allow confirmation without deposit again. New available dates for bookings. Tuesday 19 April. Saturday 30 April. Friday 20 May. If you haven't booked with Robert for one of these days or another suitable to both of you then you will miss out. This gives people another month which is more than enough considering it has been nearly three months already. There are two people in Iraq so they have excuses. If your airconditioning doesn't work it doesn't matter anymore because it's no longer summer. Get it happening guys. We are all busy. By having this many no shows we are collectively ripping this guy off because the discount was based on volume. I don't rip people off.
