Low Mounts 10.6 @ 138mph Stock Bot End Gtr

[XRATED]

Ive got the same problem.....its the worn transfer case.

Croydon's are modding one for us with extra clutch plates in it...worth a thought

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Yeah, that's what I thought, (although the box was re-built before I got the car) but I pulled it down and it's all new inside. The front whels have no problem spining and it's a consistant rear wheel then front wheel spin. So...

Mate you've really got your thing really moving, I was never going to keep draging after I ran my 10, but it's tempting now....

By the way (somone mentioned somthing.....) I'm not workshop backed, I built the thing in my car port and is tuned by a local (Andrew Kutz/Pro Automotive).

I would love to see the times GTR's will do when the new HKS GT-ZZ's come to replace the 2530's

well done xrated thats some awesome numbers for low mounts and stock bottom end, and home built is even better than all these business backed cars with piles of development and time/money poured into them. i have 100 times more respect for peoples cars who are actually done by the owner and not just cheque book racers.

(no im not having a go at anyone in particular with my comments, just the general car scene and all the braggers who done nuthing and paid someone else to do it then claim they built it and put in all the effort)

good luck in the future

well done!! go the low mounts!!

hmm thats got me thinkin! i,m not far off the mark.

i went out to the test & tune at willowbank last week and ran 11.1@135 mph with a 2.1 60 footer. on low mounts.

drove like a girl & wheels spun for two gears and didnt do a burn out( saving the tyres for the track day this weekend at wakefield, michelin pilots to expensive to burn up!!)

the best it's run time wise before that was 10.85@133 with a 1.85 60 footer, but power has increased since then hence the higher mile an hour.

will try and get back out soon for a better time.

cheers Russ

p.s car built by me, tuned by someone else

Paul, what is Jim charging you for the transfer case mods? I know Race Pace in Melbourne are also well known for doing transfer case upgrades.

Awesome work there Justin, top effort!

Hey Russ - your 10.85 was run on N1's wasn't it? Are you still running the N1's?

And well done xrated. Very impressive.

I shudder to think what the bill may be....will not be ready until Tomi Miyamie comes back from Japan as he is the wizz on these upgrades

Backyard engines are the best!

[giant]

So true, so many times backyard engines are best!

yeah snowy was on N1's. great performance from them!

can anyone enlighten me as to the transfer case mods that can be done? i have read that there is something that can be improved , but have never found information relating to it.

From what i could gather from the translation....the transfer case has a number of clutch plates...7 i think....3 thin and 4 thick....the mod involves simply removing all the thick plates and putting thin ones in. From what i could gather, the removal of a thick plate allows you to put two thin ones in its place. So instead of having 7 plates in total you end up with 11.

Please correct me if i am incorrect...as this is something i am very "green" on

[giant]

Yeah it is Mik, were you competing?

had a great time at the nsw round , great tracks!!
