Hallo guys,

I did 11.2sec with 130 or 134mph(I don't remember exactly) and 1.9sec 60foot!

Unfortunatly the drag strip was very very bad without glue and very old.

With bumps over 1/8mile as you can see in the video.

Theese bumps caused the accident..

In a good drag strip and with rev limit 8500 I am sure that the time will be mid 10!

In other races I did 1.5sec 60foot but in this drag strip was impossible to do a good launch!

I set the tyre pressure at 7.5psi (cold tyres-before burnouts) in my try for a good time :(

This tyre pressure sure was an other reason for the accident.

At the time that I lost the car I push full brakes and the car did drift because the street has dust and was very old.

Glue has only fore the first 1/16 mile

I tried in the race to tune a little the car with the commander...

Rev limit: 8000rpm

AFR wot: 11.7!!

IGN: 19deg at 8.000rpm

Boost: 2.1bar - 31psi (without vaccum hose at wastegate :P :P )

100octane fuel

Very hot summer day!!! 100F 38C

The car is really fast now!!! :);):P

Ofcourse it needs tune but it is really good instead without tune.

Did the guy in the S2000 hit the wall because of the collision or because he was taking evasive action? Whatever happened that's a nasty hit - both of you walk away?

Isn't the rule on most strips that if you even get a hint of a loose ass end and don't back off you get in a fair bit of trouble?

Obviously not in Greece..

And if it is..then the guy is a wanker!

**edit** i retract that statement. He's a wanker anyway. He could tell his grip wasn't the best..should've acted on it

then again..i don't know how hard it is doing 11sec runs so i should probably not comment

^^ to me it looked like the Honda was trying to get out of the way.

The little story thing with one of the videos said that....but being that the OP tagged the ass end of it at 130mph...well yeah

Of course they did......thats why the Honda got out of control too....right.

yeah it def wasnt the 7.5psi in the tyres :) or the fact that he kept the boot into it with the car trying to swap ends

Been over pleny worse bumps than that at similar speeds on dirt, (Legally in rallies) and not had any issues like that... and as has already been said, the Honda was not having any troubles, and unless you car is far and away the quickest thing to ever run on that strip the cause of the crash is plain and simple, you ran shit out of talent

Idiots aren't even wearing basic safety gear.

I'm amazed they weren't hurt or even killed.

The 180 definitely tagged the s2000.

Gotta love 3rd world drags. :)

mate i dont know if i want to see a video of you trying to run a 10, running an 11.2 nearly killed you and someone else.

you can just see a guy in the 2nd video at 0:24 with his hands on his headshouting "RE MALAKA!" that comments sums it up beautifully.

      High temp brake fluid?

      By Komdotkom · Posted

      Reasonably hard, although I haven't run it with the new Endless setup yet. The old brakes were F50's on 335mm rotors and the car did a 1:40.6 at Phillip Island which is a reasonable time, I'm seeing high 600s on the temperature paint. A guy I know ran the Endless fluid at WTAC without issues and he was doing 1:33's I think (Evo) with a 355/332 setup. I don't get out to the track as much as I'd like but we put the car on the hoist and spanner check every bolt and re-paint mark everything, bleed the brakes, change the fuel, check the coolant system and re-bleed blah blah blah before every event. Motorsport is expensive, RB's are expensive so a couple of hours before an event is time well spent. It's also a net time saving because if you can keep your RB from self destructing it saves you time in the long term!

      Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!

      Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!

      HKS Vcam Step Pro Issues

      By believer · Posted

      I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
