Very tempted to see what the GTR can lay down with its new setup :laugh:

Now, whos got some drag radials for sale............

Be tough, do it on street rubber like me. If I can do a 14.8 in my granpa car I'll be stoked.

Cheers, D

If anyone's interested, I have a set of used MT ET Drag Radials which I'm putting up for sale (tyres only) - 255/50/16.

I was going to put these in the For Sale thread, but thought I'd give anyone going to the drag day first dibs if they were interested.

They're probably 50% used, but still have enough meat left to at least last the drag day or a few street meets.

I managed a 1.689 60' on these last time out, so they're still in good nick >_<

I'll be away over the weekend, so they'll be available next week. PM me if interested.

Cheers,

Brenden

Edit: $100 for the lot (from memory, paid $260/each brand new)

    • I'd be looking at the mentioned EFR kit, room to turn it up if decide on e85 (which we know you will) and be super responsive and fun on the street. OR https://v8roadsters.com/product-category/engine-conversions/engine-conversion-lsx/engine-conversion-lsx-nc/?srsltid=AfmBOorrJa2S76JR5ekXprxBOtU44a1UProbe64YaiVi9zTVp1Lj814w And add whooshy noise for extra fun C5 corvette prices are coming down locally here and a mate has a manual one and is a heap of fun on the street and track.
    • I have an Elite 2500, honestly most of this has been a lot of smaller tasks chasing little details and a whole lot of life getting in the way of bigger projects. I don't mind too much looking at a spectrograph vs having audio knock ears. 
    • Nah nah nah nah. Don't do it. It's not all about the full throttle power delivery. The main "street fun" and drivability gains from smaller rear (in this case) is how you will have boost available from a low rpm when yo just roll onto the throttle. Think jinking in and out of traffic, coming out of roundabouts, etc etc, where you just want to roll onto the throttle a little and have the spooly noise from ~2000rpm and a swell of torque. More of what you've already achieved by going to 2.5. And then, towards the tail end of 2025 you can pull the turbo 4 out and put in a V8 like we originally suggested. :P
    • Cheers for the info mate, I'm old too, 60 years old next May, so a more linear delivery of the 0.86 would be better as baking tyres and snapping heads isn't on the cards for me or the car I assume a more linear power delivery would be better for engine and drivetrain reliability as well, IRT the torque load at lower RPM???, as well as lower EGT's???, if my understanding of that is correct, have I got that right??? I've only got a really basic understanding of turbo sizing and all there characteristics  Cheers for the useful information
