7 To 11 Test'n'tune Nov 2nd @ Willowbank


Recommended Posts

Just wondering if anyone from SAU is going to the 7 to 11 test and tune tomorrow night?

I did have a few mates who were going but it appears they are now wearing skirts and don't want to go... Need to organise a bunch of people to cruise out with :(

Also wanting to know if there will be anyone who has a support crew who wouldn't mind looking after my spare tyre, tools etc when I'm racing :yes:

Cheers.

hi mate, pm sent, im interested in going, finally some nights off this week, havnt ran my car yet. ..

just find a security guard who would be happy to sit on the tyre and fall asleep on it for you.

Tried that one last time... Asked if I could leave my jerry can near the scrutineering desk and they basically said it may not be there when I got back... Luckily for me it was and I had enough fuel to get home :rofl:

12 flat ???

Nah... seriously mid to high 13s would be good.

I've run a 14.1 @ 100 mph on a 2.3 second 60 foot... so if I can get my 60 foot times down, high 13s should be realistic.

... Mods are EBC, power FC, pod filter, high-flow cat, and catback exhaust... Everything else is stock (standard SMIC and standard turbo).

hey i dont know if this will help but last time i went out i took my stockos and changed from my 18s while i was there. i just left my 18's with the jack under a sheet i put in my car so not to dirty the seats and left them on the grass around other parked cars and people. I was worried first and kept checking up on them but i quickly relised they were fine. Although now ive posted this on the net it might be a different story, nobody get any ideas.... lol

Hey mate, I will definitley be out at Willowbank tomorrow night. But unfortunatley I am also without pit crew :)

I wish to go to, but now i have an issue with needing a helmet :). on such short notice i dont have a helmet to use..

You can buy the helmets pretty cheap. I have seen them at the motorcycle shop on the corner of Moss St. and the M1 service road starting at about $70 from memory. :)

lol , ended up using my 18"s for the job, just dropped the pressure to 26 psi. only went to 26 cause i still had to drive a fair while from the track on em.

Great meeting ya Chris. was a good night. my first time, ran a 13.93, not too bad i guess. just gotta work on my starts.

ps. shouldnt have jinx myself ;)

Good to meet you too Dale... Was a very good night (except for the oildowns!)

I ended up running 13.96 @ 100mph so I got the time I was after.

Were some impressive times last night:

'Easy St' R32 GTR ET: 10.9 seconds

Marty (STZ automotive) SR20 powered celica ET: 11.6 seconds

Alex (GT Auto garage) R33 GTR ET: 12.0 @ 127 mph! (was definately bogging down off the line and falling off boost + struggling for traction on boost) - looking forward to seeing some low 10 second passes soon!

    • Hey everyone, just wanted to let you know about an app I use to track the modifications, repairs, servicing etc I do to my R33 GTR. You might like to use it as well. I'm biased because my son just wrote and released it! But I think you might find it useful to... https://trackmymods.com  
    • Hey everyone, been on here for a while, but never introduced myself before. 1st import was a R32 GTS Type M, then R33 GTS, now R33 GTR - each one sold to help pay for the next one. Over the years my son has seen me modify and do changes to my imports and was one of the reasons for him to build an app for car enthusiasts like us. (He can only afford a 2007 Honda at the moment, but he'll get there!) Anyway, bit of a proud Dad moment as he's released an app that I use and you all might like to as well. https://trackmymods.com  
    • It will sound tragic and you wished you didn't have 1x exhaust per turbo. There's a reason why most S55 owners change to a single mid pipe.
    • Echo the comments about the well preserved condition it's in. It has the aero bumper too for extra points. Nice car, and please keep it like that! 🙂
    • 1. There are no real performance benefits. It sounds different, and as the pipes are not as large diameter you can claw back some undercar clearance or run lower (if that's your thing). 2. Twin pipes, offering exactly the same cross sectional area as a single pipe** will have higher pressure drop - so will not flow as well. That's because there is more surface area of wall per cross sectional pipe area, hence more frictional losses. ** But of course, it is almost impossible to get 2 pipes that are exactly the same XS area as a given typical single pipe. eg, 2x2" is not the same as 1x 3", although it is close. If the 2x pipes add up to less XS area than the single - it will just be flat out worse. If the 2x pipes add up to a bit more than the single, then it might come out as a wash. If the 2x pipes are substantially more XS area than the single, then it will probably flow a little better. 3. No. Why would there be? What have cats got to do with boost creep?*** ***But for f**ks' sake, please run a cat. 4. If you want.
