they are plenty of nine second cars in the east that are street legal dude.i dont know the wa laws that well,nsw,old,vic probably have all different laws. :unsure:

There may well be plenty of cars that are street legal that do 8's 9's 10's, whatever.

This isnt one of them.

B0BB0 isnt only some dude who I once saw on the street then read about doing a 10, hes one of my best friends. I know the car isnt street legal for WA.

thanks mate,now i know.didnt know he was your mate,still it would be cool if it was street legall :unsure:

was there last wednesday and saw the run, congrats bobbo is one hell of a car... We were perplexed (pun intended) at the 10.26 @ 197 kph though, as to get a low 10 sec pass you'd need to be trapping at well over 23kph.. You missed 5th true but still to me doesn't explain the speed.. Did they stuff up the MPH perhaps? The ET is definitely correct...

EVL R33,

It's possible to have a low trap speed for the time if you didn't need to push the car to obtain it (car is capable of much faster times). I'd say given the slow terminal this thing has perhaps a mid 9 in it, with all things being somewhat equal.

Not any more, considering I saw it last night in WA.

Met the new owner Danny last night, top bloke, car is immaculate as well.

Yeah I was down there on the night also, 'Run Me' is definately here although sporting new plates...Car looks awesome!

Saw a few of Bobbos starts from pit lane, pretty damn impressive, made my 11 second pass.....okay okay 11.9 :) look like i was just driving to the shops :)

I think the low MPH was due to the miss of 5th gear, if you look at the vid on youtube you can see for approx 50m before the line the car is just rolling, hence i would have lost speed. thats what i put it down to.

    • Glad it all went smooth. How long did the tuning process take?
    • Yeah that was kind of the same feedback my tuner gave me.  the boost tee is until I can sort out my plan for the electronic boost controller and what I’d get, where I’d mount the dash etc.  I’m happy with this until I can figure it out. Not a big fan of the A-pillar gauges. I’d like to get a clean install of the boost gauge - something digital like GFB.  Something like that might fit neatly where the ashtray is and look clean. I feel like replacing the OEM triple gauge is a bit extreme for a weekender like my skyline. And it’s not making crazy power to need all the additional sensors/gauges. 
    • I'm about to swap my box to Tremec T56 Magnum F & initially thinking of re-using my DCS twin plate (can get it re centred for the bigger spline) but it's been called out the box will be noisy (rattle) as the clutch is unsprung.  So I'm doing as much research as possible. I'm not so worried about holding the power as I'll go the track version which on paper will hold the maybe 1000hp I make. It's the longevity I worry about. DCS told me they don't use a sprung centre as it's just something that can break. The uni clutch has a very complicated sprung centre. Any one had or heard about any issues with it failing? Thanks in advance.
    • Auto is at least 10% (from my real, actual experience with different torque converters and manual on the same setup) ~185rwkw at 11.6psi (peak!) is entirely what one would expect without a FMIC or anything else on the intake, it does bleed off towards the higher RPM so it's what, 9psi there? Note: There is nothing that can be done about this with a manual boost tee. If you want to hold it steady and gain more top end, well - You will need electronic boost control.....
    • This makes sense. I have 2 so I'll just choose the least favourable child to perform the task.  If all turns to shit, I've still got a spare.  Win-win!
