Oscar, how the hell did you manage the 11.7 in RWD ?

Easy exactly same procedure as AWD. Long smoky burnout, launch on limiter and hang on.

I was still getting wheelspin on the 3-4th change at over 100mph :) I'm sure if I practised more I would get low 11's

I heard something about another accident that only just missed a small pole

Another street drifters close encounter with a gutter. Heard it was suspension damage only.

Any more details yet Cameron?

I'm all set for the drags again tomorrow. :D

Anyone needing S13 parts should come & see me or pm me if you don't know me. I am still stripping Ryan's old '92 Silvia shell and there is not much left.

Best bits available would be the front seats, all glass, rear subframe complete, minor interior parts and shell rear of the A pillars.

What ever is left in a few weeks time will be going to the wreckers or crusher. All cheap especially if you want to take the bits off yourself.

Dunno if you guys know yet but its $100 to enter the 1320 event. i wonder why the price hike?

What do you mean ? Dudes are coming from the US and you think it's gonna be like an off street meet ? Bracket racing in super street is about as expensive as that normally if you don't have a s/st ANDRA license, and even more expensive in super sedan ($125 + license). And it's $80 if you nominate now, $100 on day. It will be extra to have a one day license too.

I'm wondering how strict the scruteneering will be. If they are relaxed about it that will really piss me off as the only reason I'm not racing is because of ANDRA rules. Both cars are ready to rock mechanically but R32 still needs battery isolator, fit new 5 point seat/rail, 5 point harness, side intrusion bar on cage, tailshaft loop, new race gear, $9 a litre unleaded, upgrade to group 3 unlimited ANDRA license, parachute yada yada yada. It just goes on and on. I just need to get the R32 back out there to see where I'm at. You guys have no idea the money that's been poured into my GTRs. (could've had an R35 already put it that way) :)

Good news for this event is tail shaft loop is only required in the 10 sec zone (ANDRA says 11) but harnesses will be enforced in the 11 sec zone OR 110 mph. I've tried telling everyone - don't say you were not warned.

I spoke to Andrew Cole today over the phone and scrutineering won't be any different to any other meet. So whatever you normally do to prepare your ca for racing is what will be required on the day. Hope to see you out there Ben.

    • People still have Skylines? I thought they're non-existent now. 
    • Harness update time have had great fun and learnt so much already so far with this project. I started off making both the ignition and injector sub harnesses in the hope any mistakes i made here aren't as hard to undo and learn from as the main harness.  A cool comparison of the old harness using presumably TXL wire and the new which is using Tezel. Also opted to use DTM plugs to keep the whole setup as neat and tidy as possible and tucked the wiring under the coil bracket to try and keep it all from sticking out too much. Although the injector harness, I'm not overly happy with as I'm still using the rubber boots that are supplied with the type of plugs it just looks ugly and sticks out like a sore thumb with the white identifiers so a slight redesign may be done.   Then it was main harness time and most importantly trying to route it nice and away from the heat it will use the OEM heater hose routing which is no longer present to keep the harness up high and secure. it's amazing how much smaller this harness is able to be compared to the old one. plugged everything into the emtron and with the help of the tuner again attempted to start it up and instantly fired up and running smoothly on all 6 which was a big shock to myself. So still some routing and adjusting to be done for the final fit up and installing a knock sensor harness plug which is in the post all has gone surprisingly well.     The old harness for shits and giggles.
    • They do that at random every now and then, with almost no detectable cause. Mine has done it a couple of times (over 25 years!!). Never worked out why.
    • I don't post on here and have been lurking for some time now. Many of the topics have helped me out more times than i can count. I was racing yesterday (11/9) and blew a front right CV shaft. I have spares so I popped a new one in. A thread i read previously said to check the engine mounts if you blow a front CV. Upon inspection, the front right mount was completely separated from the upper plate. This discovery saved me time and money, because i would have blown another CV if i went back out. Just wanted to thank you guys and wish everyone luck with with their builds. (Now if we could only come up with a solution for my power steering belt flying off after hitting the rev limiter, lol)
    • Either way he still need those style of spacer to go into the manifold because the photo he currently has is not going to work
