Drag day... interesting results

[ix9]

Well... went to the drags this arvo... had a lot of fun

Ran a 13.9 @ 101mph (2.2 60') on 9psi with a misfire issue between 4-5rpm. Not to mention an exhaust manifold gasket leak...

... which got worse on my last run so I had to bail.

This is without the AFC or anything....or the rest of the exhaust done yet.

Next time I go down I'll have an AFC installed and Tuned, A dump Pipe, and a de-cat-de-centre muffler pipe also.

I dont see a 13.5ish being out of the question. There is plenty more go left in it I think....

Some good results for bully, and GOT BOOST and Lagwagon also

Oh yeah, and the track was slippery as hell.... had wheelspin most of 2nd ugh! wonder how much better the time would be with more grip?

But now, I need an exhaust manifold gasket to suit the RB25. Anyone know the type/model number and where I can get one from ?

good mph. I ran my 33 last night at willowbank. Ran a 13.56@100mph. only got boost controller, 3 inch not got a dump pipe, and k&n pod. im happy with the time and no doubt that u will get into the low 13's dude just gotta hook up right off the line. I went down to stock wheels for the meet and when i ran my best time it hooked up well just abit of spin into second. Its all in the launch matey ive learned that. Good luck anyhow

wow 13.9 with 9pounds?

much potential there....

[AeroGrace]

was this with lowered tyre pressure btw?

[ix9]

Yeah, i was dam suprised at such a good time, but could only run 9psi cos the misfire would get really bad!

and Yep. Lowered tyres to about 22-23psi....

... then dumped the clutch at 3grand off the line.... f*ck slipping it, i got worse times that way!

[sweetr33]

my clutch screwed up on my last run. I ran a 13.98@83mph lol

weird had to roll down to the very end and was stuck there for awhile. turned the car off put it in gear started it up in gear coz i couldnt select a gear with the car on(no peddle) and then drove up the return road got into 3rd using no clutch pushed in the clutch while still accelarating and it went clunk and came good??? How bizzare but now i just went to the drift day today and on the way up it was slipping badly on the highway. 3rd n up just slips

[GOT BOOST]

12.4 @ 116 mph

im FN wrapped stock engine and on street rubber

and the track was crap. looking forward to lows 12's or better.

long live the 32

Kym, you learned how to drive.

[Hicks]

Nice time.

[ix9]

hahah, smartass

Yeah, Guess I did huh?

0.2sec quicker and i'll beat you!

[Hicks]

You'd beat me now. At this time my car is stock! Stock boost, stock computer. But i'll have my new ecu in the next two weeks, and hopefully a new turbo a few weeks after that.

Then i'll try a 12.7.

Kym, Well done, I knew that car was much quicker after seeing it on the last cruise, but there will be plenty of improvement with some of those bugs fixed.

Got Boost, Excellent time mate, goes to show that the RB26 conversion was well worth it, and I'm sure there is plenty more left in it when you decide to push it harder:D

hey strich you reckon the clutch helps man

Hicks, Planning on beating your old time when the wolf is in?

[RB20LagWagon]

Interesting day to say the least, Track was like ice, the return road had more grip in it. Got a best time of 13.05 with 2.3 60ft at 113 mph so the mph is 3 mph better then my best et, with 60 foot being .4 off my best, so there is a mid 12 in there somewhere.

On my Second pass throw it into 3rd, add power, and tail end decides to go wall ward at 130-140 kph. Interesting stuff indeed

This is what I dont understand about the drag strip, its supposed to be treated so that its much grippier than a normal street, yet it isnt. why?

Nah, i'll beat it with a new turbo. Easier to do that way.
