What's the best time to get there to enter?

Me and a couple of mates are going to have a run tomorrow night

gates open at 5 for competitors, sometimes 4.50pm thel open, then u got through scrutineering and then u will probly wait around for half an hour or so coz racing starts at 6pm

yep - rev limit clutch dump works well :cool:

nah - something around 4000rpm works from what ive read, then bleed the clutch out or pop it out if you got a hd clutch

otherwise just work around that value - try 4000rpm one time, then 4500 rpm then 3500 rpm, then just feel around them till you find something that works for you

lately ive seen a few gtrs down at the strip runnin like 14s alot off ppl are revvin to like 3000 3500 droppin the clutch and its just bogging off the line, depends really if u gotta heavy duty clutch or not, if not i wouldnt try launching too hard, if u do i think ya should git it 4000rpm+ and practise gettin off the line without bogging it

4000rpm should be alright, i notice some people rev it o 4000rpm and straight out drop the clutch and it bogs, if u go a bit slower on the clutch to keep the revs up and give it plenty of throttle it should launch ok, i have got a 2.0sec 60ft last week in my gtst

    • Can you at least move to a location without so many ladders, black cats and mirrors precariously propped up ready to be knocked down? Or buy yourself a 1 ton bulker bag of salt to drag around with you. Just, you know, sling it over your shoulder?
    • Meh, what's the worst that can happen? If is is supposed to have a washer, and: the spring retainer seals reasonably well on the surface, maybe just allowing a little bleed of oil out, and the spring does not coil bind when compressed that little extra bit, then the end result will be slightly higher relief pressure setpoint, and no other noticeable effects.
    • Weirdly I see a flat washer on aftermarket pumps but as you said it doesn't seem like new OEM pumps have it. EPC doesn't break out the regulator as a separate component either. I'm guessing if the pump came that way it's safe to use as-is. 
    • I'm always a glass half full kinda guy. This will be a great project and the finished product will be awesome.
    • A local that insisted he learned from the best in Australia for RB builds managed to machine a head past the point of saving according to another shop and it dropped a valve too. Ghosted the customer and as far as I know nothing really happened to him. A coworker also recently told a story about owning a Porsche in Germany and running into issues with a dealer tech leaving scratches, oil stains, and missing parts all over his car. I'm not a master tech by any means but at this point I've seen enough expensive mistakes that I'd rather make them myself.
