Got Beaten By 350z

[V35_Paul]

Was at the "Midwest Show & Shine" last week with the V all clean and shiney looking like a million bucks.

I had it in the category "Best Asian Import" and i was BEATEN by a 350Z (first) and a AURION!!!! (second)

When in Hell did these cars become Asian imports?

and yes they are made OS but so is every car in Oz save some fords and some holdens.

This category was for cars with import badges.

Not happy

[PM-R33]

Yeah that shit happens. Be happy, atleast you have a category for imports, up here most of our car shows put our cars as "Best Other" lol.

[xtc]

How about best na 6 u won last time or something?

[xtc]

And no z and aurions aren't imports as they are sold here locally although all of you should know that

lol best other...feels noob

Yeah the dyno broke down. It was giving bad readings so they stopped. Mine was the last car on the dyno and pulled 220rwkw.

So i didn't get to claim another win.

I might have to get a dyno tune down in Perth and go in a comp in Perth.

I makes me sick that some guy/girl thinks they can enter "best Asian import" with their Aurion and even sicker that the clown judges (that we payed for from Perth) didn't even know what an import is!!!

[interfooler]

220rwkw is pretty good. What mods have you got Paul?

[xtc]

220rwkw is pretty good. What mods have you got Paul?

i think the dyno was giving incorrect readings so i doubt 220rws. its possible but ALOT of work and i think pauls last run made 17Xrwkws with pulleys, spacer, z tube popchargers, exhaust. ill let him clarify but if hes really pulling 220rwkws NA i really wanna know what hes running

[CRISP 35]

Na he was was pulling 170+ wid jus the JWT pop charger z tube and a skunk 2 plenum spacer. After that he made much more wid the extractors and underdrive pulleys..

[V35_Paul]

last dyno run was 191kw. i was hoping for 194kw with new Y pipe

[Ezy03]

220rwkw is insanely good!!

Pulled 173rwkw this weekend. Have got a Stillen airbox, Z tube, V+ Plenum spacer and HFC. So, as the others are asking - what mods are you running?

I think it's time for me to get my car chipped (and add more mods). Now I don't feel so great about pulling 173

[ripstah]

show us some pics

[V35_Paul]

Hey guys i only got that because the dyno was broken. My last run working run was 191 and i was hoping for 194kw but the dyno was giving wrong readings e.g. this girls crewman last pulled just over 300rwkw but this time it pulled over 400rwkw with no extra mods. So they shut the dyno down.

here is a video of the first car on the dyno which i think was the reason it started to fail.

my mods are:

Pop charger with Z tube

Plenum spacer

Grounding kit

Extrators

Light weight underdrive pulleys

Next is Camshaft and then a Dyno tune Want to break that 200kw mark

Definately not the way it should be...but these kind of weird decision making things happen.

At Perth Autosalon 2010, our car club plus two others full of mild and wild done-up cars entered and lost the main prize of "Best Car Club" to a bunch of Holdens and Fords with air bags and neons.

Yeah, probably when comparing all the cars they displayed, etc. Maybe I was just jealous I wanted a Jap spec cars to win it.

Interesting you bring up heavily modded Commodores/Falcons.

I was the lone V35 representative up at Powercruise this weekend (Barbagallo). The cars there were simply unreal. HSVs/FPVs, classic aussie/american muscle, a lot of s13-s15s and r32-r34 Skylines and even a few Euro heavyweights. However, amidst the company of such highly modified machines, my V35 with mere aftermarket rims pulled A LOT of attention. Had people asking me what the hell it was, if they could sit in it, if they could look under the hood, few taking pictures and even a couple of people wanting to come for a ride around the track. I was actually really surprised even though they're getting more common, there's still a huge number of people who've never seen one before.

I took much pleasure basking in all the attention.

That being said, I think U guys (Victor,xtc and Paul) should have taken the prize away from the modified locals. Oh well, we know ours looks a million bux so that's what counts

Have you got a copy of the rules anywhere?

Fair enough I'd be unimpressed at the Aurion getting a showing (since it's manufactured in Australia), but a 350Z is an "Asian Import". I don't see anything in the title requiring the competitor car to be a grey Asian import.

and yes they are made OS but so is every car in Oz save some fords and some holdens.

But they're not all made in Asia, so BMWs, Mercs, etc wouldn't have been in your category.
