i was there watching anth, VERY well deserved result and a 10sec pass is only a given..... its also a good note to mention that almost everything on the car has been done by anth, best of all the tune in it, which it gets 400km's to a tank,makes over 360rwkw and makes the e.p.a happy and have it do it for year's? HOW MANY BIG NAME TUNER'S CAN SAY THIS?? he is the man your after if you need your skyline tuned!!.

well done once again.

Thanks for the comments guys :rofl:

I have been lucky because i have access to 2 dyno's anytime i want, and i know a few people who own workshops and its easy for me to get access to pretty much anything i need.. i am a IT tech not a mechanic.

So yeah i would like to thank Turbotechnics & Hunter All Wheel Dyno for the use of their workshops when needed. Such good mates to have. There is no way i would have been anywhere near ready to go to the track and make this happen without Anthony & Wayne.

Wayne from adnum automotive (hunter all wheel dyno) helped me with a few emergency repaires i needed just as i was about to put the car on the tow truck to get it towed he droped everything and helped me with what i needed to get it fixed.

Anthony @ Turbotechnics is a good mate of mine as well and back in the day we used to bounce ideas off each other, now he helps me when i get stuck with my car as this is the first high powered car i have tuned till about a month or so ago i did i couple others.

And then there is my mate Disco Dave, he is the man when it comes to working on cars, he can pretty much remove the engine from my car and have it on a engine stand in 90 minutes ready to fix whatever needs to be done.. have had this engine out a few times and i would not have been able to do it without him!

Also Riskin, Brad from Autosport, he helped me overcome a major hurdle that I have been stuck on for months with my car, the best thing about his help was that he just gave me encouragement to keep heading in the direction i was going and not let failure to fix the problem let me down, i think he know i was soo close to working it out that he wanted me to to go at it myself, so yeah brad cheers for your help too!

So yeah i would like to give credit where credit is due, there would be more people who have helped me along the way but they all know its well appreaciated!

Sad day for Anthony and all the locals up here yesterday as Anthony's towie and well know local identity was killed on Monday night...all the best 'effie' and give our condolences to AD'z and his family.

What are your plans GT. strictly 1/4 mile stuff or is there some trackwork in your future?

I am going to give up on drag racing and keep going with drifting, drag racing is boring. drifting is fun ;)

mate...fricken excellent work there! I admire that you do your own work and it has payed off :) Kudos to you!

Cheers mate :) yes it finally paid off, i waited a while before i was ready because i had some more mods to make the car reliable to do, like oil cooler etc etc

Well Done Anthony!!!

Glad the car is running well and cant wait to see what happen's next! :D

10's will come soon, then i will try and get into some serious drifting :)

Cheers Paul, it happened on monday night. Mal was the best towie in Newcastle, no one could work a truck the way he could. He will be missed.

RIP MAL

That's a great time, mate. You have a 10 waiting with the same power level and a 1.6 second 60-foot time.

Great stuff.

Cheers mate, maybe your car will be ready and we can have a few runs soon :)

Hey Anthony,

Have you had any drag racing experience previously, as im kinda in the same boat (same power, RWD) but havent raced on the strip yet. So im kind of expecting to be terrible the first few times!

Also, did you have to worry about wheel spin with the drag radials, or did they just hook up and away you went?

Shaun.

congratulations Anthony 11 for non AWD is really good results hope we can play little bit with my car too at this weekend:)

hehehee cool mate.. ive never tuned a car in Europe by remote controlling the laptop in the car over a mobile phone connection. It will be interesting! I am looking forward to it :woot: Our test run last night worked smoothly so it should work fine.

To the race track you go :(

I took a screen shot from our little test run.

I was a big street racer back in the day, i used to be known for my launch abilities being able to out launch WRX's in my skyline (Poor clutch) but that was a long time ago and have grown up a bit since then :D

I have had about a total of 10 runs on the track, 2 back in 2001 in my old fj20 datto and 3 years ago i had about 4 runs in my skyline with 200hp less at the wheels, and the 3 runs i have had last weekend.

So i am not experienced on the track, the drag radials would not turn, i even had the launch controll spooling 3psi off boost on the line at 5500 rpm and droped the clutch and it would STILL BOG DOWN!!!!

If i had of had another go i would have dropped it at 6500rpm :) and i might have got a 10 but i broke out :D

Im a lil confused????

How heavy is the R33 GTS-T???

Runing low 12's with slicks on Approximetly 420whp doesnt seem right. Ive seen hondas run high 12's with right around 300whp and thats FWD.....

Ive also seen 240sx's with rb25 FMIC kit and 12psi run 12.2's

bout 1450 or 1550kgs with me in it. the 12.2 run was with a 2.4 60 foot, i had the launch controll set at 3500rpm which bogged down very hard and took a second before it took off

Might even give your GSXR a run for its money over 400m :)

lol! You certainly would if i was riding it, i can only manage mid 11's. The thing is capable of 9's if you have the balls to do it though!
