Who was the other guy with the white 34 running slicks, no interior and no LH headlight? What times did he run?

that was "ADDICTED2R34'S"

not sure of his best time, but i know he got a low 13...something like 13.4 maybe....then he did a gearbox

hehe I spoke with Interloper on Wednesday night when he was having his car tuned and I must have cursed him as he didn't make the day to race his car. Sorry!

lol, thats right Paul i blame you for my no show :D

Bring on the next one! :P

my bad :(

so its all tuned and running sweet now or more work ?

nah, Sam only got back from tassie today and the software need to be sent back to the guy who wrote it for some changes......anyway Sams pretty busy this week as he's going tuning to Adelaide on thursday for 5 days so i'll just have to wait....

Spewing my car wasnt ready for this one, cant wait for the next one. Whats the chances of having one at the end of the year?

Due to overwhelming demand both here and WRX

I will organise one... but you'll need to be a member Daz :laugh:

Same as this one

This wont be the "formal challenge" as thats only one a year.

But ill think of something to jazz it up with :laugh:

I just wanted to send a big thank you not only to the organisers but to everyone that attended. There weren't any idiots ruining it and everyone had such a positive attitude, it made my first time down the magical 1/4 simple and enjoyable. I can see why people say it's so addictive.

I know I wasn't setting the fastest times out there but I was thrilled to just get out there and compete, hell I only won 2 races (for one of them, the WRX I was racing popped out of first gear). I was stoked just to get into the 14's on my first ever attempt at drag racing. And that was in a heavy 4 door with standard turbo and no front mount! I still think I can do better as my trap speeds were up to 99mph.

I look forward to next week when we can see exactly what power we've got.

Ah, you're the guy that I met first thing in the morning

Nice to meet ya!

It was a great day. Thanks for organising it all Paul and Co. Not only was it a good from a driver view, it was just as fun from a spectator. The only gripe I have, is that Heathcote didn't let us continue with the BBQ, due to "Heath and Safety Reasons"…. The Ladies running the canteen weren't even wearing gloves, whilst handling my food!

At the end of the day, I was happy with my best time of 14.7 @ 94.6mph. Such a low terminal speed. I couldn't break over 95mph. So very happy to be in the mid 14's.

yer that was me iam getting a retrim done should have it back soon :laugh: yer i got a lots of 13s cant meber what but best that i do is 13.7 at 107mph my take off is really shit diff is like a basketball bounce i riped it out tonight the boxs itS Fu*ked bad i thkinck off posting pics of it as my diff is aslo gone YESSS new ls now :laugh: should all be done in a couple of months include full respray and that i let yous now i post a topic if yous wont pics of box diff ,respray ect????

I vote calder park one night

we can book the inner field track for our use so we dont have to line up and sit around with random goonies all night

Calder Park - no go.

They are not club-friendly.

If you book the side lane you will not get "more" runs than any other friday night. So max of 2-3 runs.

Heathcote pricing is realistic, and far offsets the 1.5hour drive and fuel by $40 runs and $10 spectator.

Calder wants $50 to race, $20 spectate, if you get your own "lane" as i said you will get limited runs.

You wont get 10+ runs like heathcote by any means.

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
