We recently had Powercruise visit Darwin. There were plenty of tough cars out and about. Here's a little vid of the shopping car:

Video doesnt really do it justice, my passenger was crapping himself.

Brad, this was in 2wd, 2nd gear. I managed to stuff my new twin plate clutch, would have given 3rd a go. It made 489rwhp on 21psi. I have a tank of avgas in it now so I will put it back on the rollers and crank some more boost into it.

Love the minis Heath, my mate is putting a couple together atm.

Fully aware of how to drift bud, order yourself a Powercruise DVD and have a look. During the cruise sessions you are NOT allowed to drift, powerskids only ie, no sitting on the brake making a heap of smoke. All I was doing was plating it in 2nd and letting the motor do the rest of the work.

^^speaking from the number one rule breaker of SAU :pwned:

MADE!!!!!!! lol dont worry brad we still like you.

yeah least you get to have some fun with your shows. motorvation is a dismal event. love the fact the stagea can get the tyres spinning when rolling without to much effort. awesome.

Thanks for the nice comments guys and girls. Got a nos kit ready to go on, should get me around 650rwhp, which is stiiiilllll not enough to catch up to Brad! Damn your Jun powered trolley :pwned:

Jun powered "VOLVO" LOLOLO!!

well thats no fun :(

'sif the yanks know anything about powerskids and burnouts! Don't you guys still chock the front wheels in a burnout comp? I have always thought that was the main reason drifting took off so fast in seppo land.

if you need nitrous to get 650HP, you need to build your motor a little better

A real good friend just dynoed his r32 at 600HP. with no nitrous and N1 turbos

Dont know who you are buddy but i am pretty sure you dont know much about my car. It is built to take 1000hp. Not sure where your mate got his car dynoed but 600hp at the rears on n1's is pretty high. Do I need to mention my run was done on 21psi?

yeah, his N1s are maxed out, time to upgrade

ill be happy with my measley 400 on an rb25

but why are you using nitrious instead of a larger turbo?

I dont know about aussie

but NOS Is like 200 bucks a small bottle to build.

at that price its more economical to pay for a larger turbo to me.

But sitll, your number is impressive

what turbo was that on?

    • It is possibly 55 degrees for the Nismo version. I had a look through the manual and the stocker has a breakaway torque of 2.5 to 3.5kgm. Supposedly the Nismo LSD goes down to 5kgm when worn in but it is pretty grabby even with very little throttle. Worse when cold. So I guess you have three things. 1. Shims. 2 Friction plates 3. Cams Would think shims would be the easiest but Ive no clue how many tenths of a mm shim thickness change equals how many kgm torque. Also not sure if the Nismo friction plates are similar/different to stock or if they are the most of the source of the diff being angry. Think I can write off the Nismo rebuild kit for the standard diff as not being what I want.  
    • Yeah, it was a bit of confusion with me, I rang and asked if they had a boot for a soft top, and then the paint shop when they rang and were asked if it had a hard top on it, which it does, just not a PRHT....LOL Meh, whilst frustrating for all concerned it isn't a war stopper and should be a thing of the past in a week or two In other N/A related news, car is booked in at the end of the month for the cams, springs, retainers, harmonic balancer and retune  I might even pull the lazy arse card and get them to do a full service on it whilst it is there
    • Factory LSD is supposedly a 2 way with a very conservative cam. If you've already tried adding friction modifier to the diff oil and it still locks up too much for your liking you might want to adjust the ramp rate on the cam to be more like OEM instead of reducing initial torque even further. People claim the 8 kgf-m disc kit for the OEM LSD is still very streetable but I've never been able to compare everything side by side on my own.
    • Oh man, at least it sounds they've accepted they stuffed up and not put it back on you...could see some confusion if they asked if it had a hardtop or not, and you've answered truthfully but maybe not answering their real question which is what roof did it have from the factory! Glad your keeping it N/A 2.5
    • Nah, I much prefer colour matched Talking about colour matching stuff, the new/used boot lid turned up, all painted up perfectly......aaaannnndddd, it's for a power retractable hard top, not a soft top.....LOL They are now sending a boot to fit a soft top.....,  whilst frustrating, life is like that sometimes, sometimes you just need to dodge, duck, dip, dive and, ummm, dodge.
