C'mon Rob! You put your car through harsher punishment on most cruises. I'm serious too! As Clint mentioned above, apart from the potential for a bit of clutch punishment (which depends on how you drive it?) the car will be fine. Trust me mate you'll have a absolute ball :) You'll be hooked for sure!

For $50 you can cram in at the very least 5 x 200km/h blasts without any hassles from the law, + you'll have hard fast evidence of just how well those new found 160rwkw move the black beast :D When you DO hit the drag strip I'd recommend upping your boost level, now you've got the S-AFC2 & FMIC 10-12psi will be fine for a few quick runs.

The JAFFA mobile should head out too!

It'd be good to get a few of us SAU guys running. That way we can line each other up.

Rob,

I can organise a helmet for you if need be? Let me know.

I'm buying an open face helmet from Revolution Racegear this Thursday. $80 brand new. ADR approved. Nothing flash, but it's comfy & looks ok.

To run at a street meet you'll need the following:

ADR approved helmet

Full length pants/trackies etc... long sleeved top

$50 cash

A roadworthy car - no noticeable leaks etc...

EDIT: Some additions -

Your terminal speed or trap speed (TS) is an average speed taken over the last 30ft b4 the 400m line & 30ft after the 400m line. I'm guessing a stock GTS25t would trap in the mid/high 90mph region? A car with a 100-105mph (161-169km/h) trap speed probably wouldn't hit the limiter until past the TS area so it wouldn't matter. If you trap @ 110+mph then the limiter will hold you back (no limiter for me :( )

Elapsed Time (ET) - taken from the time your car breaks the staging beams till it breaks the 400m beam, irrespective of reaction time (for street meets).

For more info have a read here - http://www.geocities.com/MotorCity/Garage/.../offstreet.html & here - http://www.geocities.com/MotorCity/Garage/...034/timing.html

Ignore the AIR website street meet calender, it's waaay out of date!

You wont hit the speed cut drifty - if you did you would be pulling

12s.sounded good on the dyno today - does need more boost.

The rumour is that the usual winter Sunday street meets may not be on so this MAY be the last one for a while(I hope not)

So come out a have a go.

Driftspec - just drive like you normally do & you'll do fine.

:( Classic! Oh but best to keep it pointed straight ahead for at least 400m Rob :O

No passengers allowed during a pass.

Awesome yep I am sold :) , I will be there if I can get leave pass hehe.

Yeah I know I need more boost for sure John , need to get an EBC at some stage when money permits... Mark said should easily get over 200rwkw safely with the setup I have so looking forward to that one day.

lol but sideways action is fun Matt :(

damn no passengers :O

Passed Denzo in his JMS R33 (heading opposite way) the other day in my 33, we both looked over. I was thinking "hmmm nice car!" He was probably thinking "POS" :(

Thanks mate :O I've done a bit more tinkering since you last saw it.

45k isn't bad for all the gear it's got! If ALL the gear is part of the 45k deal?

Regency & any of our cars don't mix well :(

    • The cam I am actually putting in (a few posts up) is actually smaller than my current one. At least duration/overlap wise. All the chop stuff I hear just sounds like an engine running badly, because it is. I then envision driving it around in 1st gear and being massively sad about it bucking to the beat of said chop. There is an idle video of someone with a similar cam floating around the internet, but mine is a custom cam (so is his) so it'll never be the same, plus the fact exhausts are entirely different. What I want to do is put some bullet mufflers/race mufflers in to replace a couple sections straight pipes that currently replace the two extra cats that I don't need. But this is even further down the line!
    • I can tell you now, when the bracket that the little hydraulic ram attaches to snaps, with a subframe, and V8 from an AMG C63 on it, it sounds like someone letting shotgun off right beside you. It leaves your ears ringing, and a huge thankfulness that you never ever put a body part under something heavy that's only supported by a hydraulic lift...
    • Still not a guarantee fix. I used a high quality butyl-mastiq (the black goo that's not really silicone nor polyurethane, same stuff they use from the factory that just spreads out like melty cheese), and I still get lots of water on both sides of the trunk when raining or washing the car. I also suspect the factory spoiler rubber gasket might not be sealing well, so I'm thinking of adding a thin layer of grey silicone around the bolt holes on both sides and see if that's where it also leaks from. The biggest issue is that these cars don't come with a drain hole on each side like other coupes and hatchbacks.
    • I hate it, but maybe he could paint it Monster jam style and call it...godzilla?
    • Would seem to me to be appropriate to go GTR style bar. There are options with and without N1 vent holes, with the GTR lower lip integral (because FG copy). https://justjap.com/search?q=r32 bumper
