Don't bother Hamish; As if suspension and tyres are important for drags. This kid knows it all man, he has driven a Ferarri, so he must be a race car driver!! WOW I just want his signature, he's sooooo cool!

Pffft...

You bring that Ferarri and a $1000 to the next Calder meet and we see who walks away with 2g's, but make sure you know how to drive, wouldn't want to damage the walls at Calder and delay other competitors from racing ;)

You can't get in unless you die. Or somehow detach your balls, permanently.

4 times now... :)

LOL, So your a drag racer and you don't think tyres and suspension set up make a difference at the track.

If you are such an experienced racer why are you asking us how you should be modifying your car?

Surely you would have more idea than all of us.

After all you have driven a Ferrari. :)

If i was a G33K i would know how to use the ipod properly and it wouldn't have occurred.

think about it..............................................................................

............................................. :D

are you f**king serious... you go to the drags and tyres dont make a difference...

ok so a 12 second run with 1 second of wheelspin = 13 second run yes?

12 second run with 0 seconds of wheelspin = 12 second run yes?

do the f**king maths...

not to mention ther are a heap of cars round sau that will smack down ferarri's.

Boom! exactly you can have as much power as you want but if its not getting to the ground not point!!

i go to calder park and i only do drags. :S and i dont corner @ high speed. and just cos im p plater doesnt mean i cant handle a pissy turbo, my mates non turbo xr6 is faster than my turbo.. turbo aint much difference, just a nice dose.. power wise its jackall to me.. i've driven a ferrrari.. thats real power. and i cant drive that. but turbo? please you guys make it sound like its the craziest shizz ever

u r what i like to call the dumb population in our society, ur asking people who really know skylines about what to do to ur car and when they tell u make it handle good u go on about some dumb flamin mongrel in an xr6, and a turbo is abig f**king difference have u ever driven an na skyline.

u asked for advice and it was given dont question it bro we have all been there before u!!!

thems fighting words.

this guy is a douche, he posts so much crap... search him :D

Geez, dont you guys know anything??? ofc tyres dont make a difference, thats why all drag cars have really thin tyres at the front ^^.

And suspension is not the be all and end all, you just need to weld a rod from the axle to the strut, therefore you will have a better weight reduction because you also dont need a strut brace.

And if your real hardcore you can always take out 2nd and 4th gears from the gear set, because if you flatline it in first and then go straight to third and then fifth you will be faster because there are less gear changes and also you will lose about 5-10 kg for better aerodynamics.

So, That proves that tyres and suspension are not important and that with some weight reduction you can have an excellent drag car.

Deductive reasoning... got to love it!!!!

:P

This is one of the sad moments in my life(unfortunately for the clueless thread starter) that i realise that this dude is probably goin to kill himself in a car crash because he has no idea or respect for cars.

sorry buddy, but unless you really are that stupid, dont you think that maybe the victorian government made the law to stop you driving these types of cars for a reason???????

and dont think your the ducks nuts coz you say you driven a ferrari. your on your P's, you obviously have no driving ability.

Having a high powered vehicle means shit on your p's u dumb gook.. after an hour i get used to the power .. felt like driving my old car again.. why dont you go bum the government up the bum ay? oh sorry for not knowing everything about cars when i was 18. you klowns are so hardcore for knowing it all. clap clap- have a star u dum sht

    • Pete knows these cars well, he does my car too, if he was concerned about the traction arm length for your use he would have said so. Do you have adjustable bushes in that arm, maybe he got enough adjustment there (or maybe the bump steer was not material for your use of the car)
    • Hmm. Yes. I should have been clearer. 1000s for Haltech, for extra headroom. 725s for Nistune. You might even be OK with 640s, but if the possible power ends up much more than 300 rwkW you will run out of headroom on the 640s. That would probably be OK and a signal to not push it to that sort of power with Nistune anyway. At that level you probably do want to be thinking about engine protection functions. Oh, and all of that presumes 98 only, not E85. Well....the 1000s would allow you to run E85 at ~300rwkW territory, again, maybe sort of running out of headroom. Hard to tell with E85 - depends on the tuner as to how rich they like to set it up.
    • Yes.  The only scenario I can imagine when the answer isn't yes, is if you drive like there is highway patrol behind you at all times.  If your car currently runs, enjoy it and keep saving. Better costs more, keep saving until you can budget the better ECU. It's worth it.  Nope. Plenty of us making >300kw on unopened motors. Mine is unopened and makes about 350kw if I turn everything up, its fine (lots of caveats here, how the car will be used/abused, how long you expect the engine to last between rebuilds, how has the engine been maintained prior to coming into your ownership, etc etc).   
    • Sorry just wanting to clarify, at this power goal, which should I be going? Also, More info regarding suspension, the rear upper camber arms were used to get the camber back to i believe around -0.5 ~ -1 degree (@ Road and Race in Rydalmere), I forgot the exact figure, but ALOT less camber than what it came originally which was like -2.5degrees. Are the traction arms still recommended? The bilsteins from SydneyKid, they've got 400lb/in fronts & 275/in in the rear, revalved to his specs. Intercooler, I'm just having a look at some on Rakuten.jp and some other japanese sites. Might get something from back there, GReddy, Blitz or HPI, all crossflow. Looking at roughly $450-$500 AUD + shipping... Theres not many choices except that chinese branded Justjap unless you go for blitz return flow. Yeah, only downside with Haltech is the price ahhaha, so expensive, and with all the sensors if I go that route... $$$$$ yeesh. Are headstuds/gaskets needed for <300akw?
