Provided the weather holds out im there to spectate. The roads are 90% dry in penrith and the sun is trying to break through the clouds but their are still occassional very light showers.

All eyes on www.wsid.com.au at 3-4pm :rolleyes:

Well I'm home now because we got rained out. :mad:

I got 4 runs in, all of which were crap.

I got to thinking and decided that the radiator airflow panel might be restricting me so we took it off and then the rain stopped another run but on the drive home it definitely felt more powerful.

The airbox itself is not a restriction, it's getting air to it that's the problem.

I would say my 256 dyno kilowatts are more like 220 road kilowatts with my current setup.

Hey mate,

Didnt get a run in coz of the weather, rocked up late...

Saw your runs.... shame about the rain... Cars looking good. yours too msp-25t.

Was gunna coe up and say hi, but saw your in depth conversation about the radiator panel with the boys! All that thinking prob heated up the engine bay a bit too....

Damn Mona with her impressiveness.

Ahh sorry Ben. Yeah it was one of those brainwaves that results in more money being spent on the car.

At least I did some good burnouts. My speedo saw 180km/h in a couple of them!!!

Ahh damn you Adam....so now i do the lamest burnout on SAU

Just got back to the workshop now. HAd a good nite, 3 passes in all. First was a 12.90 @ 111mph. (15psi, bogged launch from hell), Second pass was a 12.0 @ 116 - More boost and too many revs so up in wheelspin.

Last run was an 11.75 @ 121mph. Still has a bit in the 60'. :mad:

Well done Mona on the 12.60 and Abo on the BIG SMOKEY BURNOUTS!!!

Yes Paul, now you do the gheyest burnout in SAU!

Adrian/Daniel/Stuart :)

I guess I should have sacrificed a few more virgins, bloody rain.

Had a little fun with Abo bob and his 4 doors, sorry mate. :mad:

Did a PB in my sled 13.442 @ 107 mph, but a slow 2.17 60' time.

Gotta get that sorted. :)

Well done to Mona with her new tune and Daniels RNMENC.

    • It's the adhesive holding the ceramic wheel to the shaft the fails on 90% of them.
    • Foreign debris, physical shock, boost leak, could be anything honestly. The danger in taking all the timing out of a tune/hitting the R&R corner is that even if the engine doesn't detonate your turbo is taking a lot of abuse from high EGT. Also, even if nothing goes wrong it is a journal bearing that is spinning at 100k RPM on boost. Eventually it goes through enough cold start/pressure cycles to wear it out.
    • I kinda accidentally saw this, and was interested, but It actually seems to replaces the whole center computer, using the existing screen and buttons. AND it may only be for a G37 and not compatible with a Japanese 370. So its not for me, but someone else may be interested to look into it. Its about $680USD. If I am understanding it right, it basically replaces/installs and android pc that integrates with the existing screen. But I could be wrong. https://gromaudio.com/vline/ The video I first saw was the following, with very little and unclear details.     Even if your not interested in the system, the video on their site was pretty comforting in showing how simple the whole centre comes out
    • hfygrte52 what side you looking for? Do you care what color car it's off? Found a white LH side on here: https://skylinespares.com.au/product/nissan-skyline-r33-coupe-rear-tail-light/   Aussie parts place but will ship to USA. Maybe get it before there's a tarrif on 25yo shit box parts
    • I’m with Shannon’s for all 5 of our cars. Agreed values seem fair, premium price is okay. ($210 ish a month, all comprehensive).  Have claimed once with them for a not at fault claim with another car where my car had no damage. Was one call after the incident and an email after. Deemed not at fault so premium didn’t go up either.    I have called up and spoken with people who are not familiar with certain cars and didn’t agree with me on value or let their personal vehicle preferences effect the call. But called back later and got someone else who was more agreeable.
