C'mon Miss niz, come for a run in the 34. I'ts heaps of fun, my car is only doing 14's so not that great. Still i loved it.

Haha, yeah i ran my ol' bluey down the strip a few years ago, but i won't be running the 34. She's just built for cruising, not racing... lol.

Depending on how the night goes, and we get a decent amount of people out. I would be happy do it again.

Had a couple of hickups with my car, but should still be going down the track. If not i will definately be there watching.

I probably will be taking footage on the night aswell, and would like to know how to upload it onto here, but unaware how to.

Im really keen to head up once i get my rims and rubber sent up from melb. Should be interesting to see how it goes with the gt30r and a decent set of drag radials under it. May not be able to make it for the next few weeks tho. I have a few exams coming up.

everthing seems to be looking well for wednesday night, although it was a bit windy today.

by the look of the weather it probably wont piss down, very unlucky if it does.

looking forward to see who rocks up on the night.

My car looks like it should be right for the night. But have had issues with those silicon performance radiator hoses i put on, just dont seem to seal properly.

Yeah they can withstand the heat but pain in the arse to secure so they dont leak. Also had air leaks coming out a couple of places, but now all sorted.

Just letting people know, that im planning on rocking up to test and tune close to when it opens, to get some runs down, then see some skylines head down the track later that night.

There has been a bit of interest and a couple of people are missin out on the night, due to cars not being ready, awaiting parts to be put on, or wont be here.

So if people would like to show some interest if we want to do another one, let us know and i'll arrange another one soon. ( But as said before we will see how this night goes, and get peoples opinions etc. after it)

Anyway see yas there,

Shake and Bake.

bit of a disappointing night, only one or two skylines were there on the night that i saw.

Couple of oil spills, and also back wheel of some guys car came off after doing his burnout.

Fair few commodores were there.

I made my achievement of the night to get into the 12's ( 12.8, 60ft - 1.989 - Mph 115)

Maybe next time we will get a few guys out.

Good effort. Is that on street tyres ?

How many runs did you get on the night ?

Nah was on MT Streets, but i had about 22psi in the tyres. ( skidded first )

Only managed to get two runs down as there were a fair few cars there.

Next time i will put the pressure of the tyres to 15psi, and see how i go then.

Hopeful then for a low 12, if i can get the 60ft down a little more to 1.8.

      Magnetic Drain Plug Snapped in Half

      By kevboost7 · Posted

      Update: I got the magnet out. I bought 3 different flexible magnetic reach tools, but none of them worked. The magnet on the tip was all less than 2lbs of force, so i had to buy a special cylindrical magnet that had a pull force of 9lbs.  The magnet finally came in the mail yesterday, so i got under the car to get to work. The super strong magnet isn't that long, so i only have about 1 finger pinch lengths to hold it. I was so scared when i was going in the hole, that the 9lb magnet would just fly away inside the oil pan never to be seen again, but i had my butt cheeks clenched and finger gripped on that thing so tight, i managed to get it to suck the other magnet out.  It was a victory for me last night.

      New fix for low tyre pressure from bmw

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Yep, pretty much what you said is a good summary. The aftermarket thing just attached to the rim, then has two lines out to valve stems, one to inner wheel, one to outer wheel. Some of the systems even start to air up as you head towards highway speed. IE, you're in the logging tracks, then as speeds increase it knows you're on tarmac and airs up so the driver doesn't even have to remember. I bet the ones that need driver intervention to air up end up seeing a lot more tyre wear from "forest pressures" in use on the highway!

      Anyone know this frontpipe?

      By sunsetR33 · Posted

      Yes, but you need to do these type certifications for tuning parts. That is the absurd part here. Meaning tuning parts are very costly (generally speaking) as well as the technical test documentation for say a turbo swap with more power. It just makes modifying everything crazy expensive and complicated. That bracket has been lost in translation many years ago I assume, it was not there.

      Hahaha, yeah.... not what you'd call a tamper-proof design.... but yes, with the truck setup, the lines are always connected, but typically they sit just inside the plane of the rear metal mudguards, so if you clear the guards you clear the lines as well. Not rogue 4WD tracks with tree branches and bushes everywhere, ready to hook-up an air hose. You can do it externally like a mod, but dedicated setups air-pressurize the undriven hubs, and on driven axles you can do the same thing, or pressurize the axles (lots of designs out there for this idea)... https://www.trtaustralia.com.au/traction-air-cti-system/  for example.... ..the trouble I've got here... wrt the bimmer ad... is the last bit...they don't want to show it spinning, do they.... give all the illusion that things are moving...but no...and what the hell tyre profile is that?...25??? ...far kernel, rims would be dead inside 10klms on most roads around here.... 😃

      You're just describing how type certification works. Personally I would be shocked to discover that catalytic converter is not in the stock mounting position. Is there a bracket on the transfer case holding the catalytic converter and front pipe together? If so, it should be in stock position.
