Hey Guys,

I'm gonna head out to my first drag meet tonight and have a crack. Is anyone else here going? Would love to get any help and tips on the night from some of the more experienced guys.

If you see me please come and say hi. :ninja:

Hey Sam, I was going to head out tonight as well if it weren't for that rain!

That was me on Pennant Hills Rd today if you didnt realise! :)

Hey Dude.

Anyway............

WSID was ON tonight until around 9PM. I got there at 6, was one the strip by 6.45 and managed to get in 7 runs so it was still good value. Track was good enough for me and everyone else.

By the end of the night I cracked the 14's and got a 13.893 with a R/T of .267 and top speed of 163 odd so I'm pretty happy with that for my first outing

Mods are a FMIC, Cat, 10PSi, pod and zorst and a Untuned PFC on chatty Bridgestone G3's. Standard turbo and injectors

Will probably hit the track when I get myself a tune.

kennedy.. you're my hero!

seriously.. good effort mate! Gotta be happy with that!!!

Thanx babe :)

At the end of the day I still prefer circuit work over the strip but it's good to haven a go now and then methinks.

Well good thing one of us got out there!

You heading out for the Wakefield track day on australia day?

Probably. I wanna get an oil cooler befire my next circuit outing so we'll see how we go

  • 2 weeks later...
I'm heading out tonight again if anyone wants to come. I just spoke to WSID and it's still going ahead......

GO MAN GO!!!

Hope ya have fun being your first time and all. You can give me tips for when I get my tyres this week and head down for my first run.

PS. DONT BREAK ANYTHING!!!!!!

With that eo1, apparently theres a low mode and a high mode. .

maybe the low mode is set to a certain limit??

Anyways a friend of mine had a similar problem.. Wont go past 14psi even on high mode..

Btw you running your car with a untunes power fc?? As in, is the power fc plugged in?? OR you just have stock ecu??

saw 2 skylines today at wsid, i think it was kennedys one and a black series 2 with white rims and a cooler, the black one was the slowest getting about 14.6

got me psyched up wanted to take mine for a run but im sure ill get 15+ lol

Fixed it. I used my 3rd and 4th run to configure the boost controller via the "auto-setup"

The PFC is installed but it still running on the "base" maps. I'm going to see HITMAN tommorow.

Anyway...

Tongith worked out quite well. I set a new personal best of 13.615

R/T = 0.143

60' = 2.046

330 = 5.770

660 = 8.820

mph = 81.78

1000 = 11.424

ET = 13.615

MPH = 102.42

KMH = 164.82

I did that with a launch at 5000RPM and the thing just grabbed. My average R/T was .228 with a best of .143.

Anyway...My annual leave from work is ending this week so I wont be going again for a while. I learnt alot about launch control which I suppose will come in handy when I have to grid up one day.

    • As a general rule removing rubber fuel hose is so difficult I would replace it if it hasn't been done in the last 5 years. The risk you damage the liner or one of the inner layers is pretty high if it's not almost brand new. BMW's recommendations around coolant hoses is similar. My R33's fuel hoses at the fuel tank were so perished that they were ready to burst FYI. 
    • Ah yep, will do. Cheers!
    • Yes. It's either "2 wires", or 1 wire, depending on how you look at it. It is the connection that ties the battery -ve to both the chassis and the engine. Every electron that goes in or out of the battery goes through those 2 small spots (on the inner guard and on the engine block). If those are not clean and tight, then shit starts to suffer. Yeah, but measure it again cold in the morning, after it has had hours to rest. You can't usefully test the charge state of a battery immediately after it has been running because the alternator puts a surface charge onto the plates that takes a while to soak in and balance out. It will always read higher, and potentially look properly healthy, when fresh off of charge. But hours later it can look a lot less healthy. It's also worth measuring the battery voltage while cranking, although this can be difficult with a typical DMM because the screem update rate is so slow on most of them. An analogue voltmeter is actually a better tool for that. If the voltage drops too far while cranking, it is a sign of a poor battery. Although I don't think we're necessarily looking for a weak battery here - just wanting to exclude it.
    • https://www.facebook.com/share/15ZMn5oXtc/ Updated Event (so its not private and can be shared easier)  Attempting to coordinate a big push of Stagea's to this years GTR Festival. Great event last year and hoping for the same this year.  Discounted tickets 20% off for their various tickets until the 3rd of Feb Monday. Drags, show and shine etc.  I've emailed them to ask to set a location aside for the Stageas for the show and shine - they are happy to do so if we can get them numbers, I'm happy to keep track of that. Entering as Nismo category.  I'll be road tripping up from Melbourne, would be cool to convey if people are interested, maybe there is SAU convoys from each capital? If you have ideas about that let me know.  https://gtrfestival.com.au
