yeh butthurt a lot of people from a 80km/h roll on, usually let them have first throttle push :D

to put it in perspective my brothers gtst had 255rwkw did a 12.9 i had 253rwkw did a 12.7 with roughly same mph dat torque and gearbox, also I'm willing to bet i'll get over 400rwkw on the Chasers dyno in a few weeks at a dyno day I'm attending seeings as I got 290 standard on it last time loool

my brothers now 340rwkw (on trents hub dyno at least..) car still cant pull on me, dat dere turbo lag vs supercharger

that 12.7 is more launch related. what was your MPH?

for reference i did 12.9 @ 119mph

/dat stiff coilovers

still my launch was only a 1.9 60ft think my brothers was 2.0 60ft. mph not too sure cant remember 110-115? turbo falcons get higher mph due to power delivery being midrange, my power curve is purely straight up so more revs = more power

these cars have done 10s without a intercooler :D, best tune only one i've seen is 11.3 with slicks

the GT500s in america are even more ridiculous, make like 440rwkw from factory

Less power and narrower band, why would you expect him to pull away? Still a good effort against your car I reckon

Gotta get me some e85

At ~250rwkw Leigh had 1.5 car lengths on me in a rolling. I'm confident I could keep up with him once I E85.

Where Leigh's car is faster than a Skyline of similar power/weight, is making that power much earlier in the rev range. Auto gearing helps too, depending on speed you drag at.

usually i'm still pretty far ahead especially at lower speeds, dat auto gearbox his car pretty quick when its running properly, unfortunately not very reliable these days lol

True, still I need to rev mine out next time :P our gear ratios would be heaps different - agree though responsive skylines are better

quickest car i raced was a done up f6 i reckon, we were flying for ages haha

that 2.7l rb25 wolf3d white r33 would take me easy, hit a 10 on last years drag day

Was it him who kept busting fuel pumps? I'm worried about blowing something up if I convert, about to tick over "150, 000kms" lol

Yep, that, turbo gaskets, intake manifold gaskets and few other things, split his intercooler pipe somewhere too i think at some stage lol

not to mention it leaks oil like a bitch now too

I know its a few pages back

But how is his surname actually spelt,

Pettet

Pettite

Pettit

Can we get a poll going on ? cause everyones doing it differently. Also has he got a wife? cause i know of a pettit somewhere in southeast. :P

    • I like it when the counter chick leads you out the back into the racks and says "have a grub around in here and see if you can find what you need. I'll be back in a few minutes. Just left me in front of a massive motorised shelving system and 2-3 million fasteners, so I could find a peculiar SS shoulder bolt with cap head. Gotta love country towns.
    • I used this https://osgiken.com.au/product/os-giken-os-250r-lsd-gear-oil-80w250-1-litre/   shut my nismo 1.5 pro up by heaps…. Not silent though. Gives the car character and personality. It ain’t a carolla. If you want silent, put a quaife in it.
    • It's about the same time for me from Bunnings, or the Fasteners. My big push away from takeaway food, and gluten in general keeps me away from the Bunnings Snags too! Weather up here, I've been out for two walks today in the beautiful sunshine. Had a few little drizzles, and some wind, that honestly, a tin of beans and I could compete on how harsh she blows Thankfully, being this bit inland, we're not getting anything much really. Will probably pick up a bit more when/if Cyclone Alfie decides to come ashore. A few areas in the GC though, and south into NSW are really getting smashed though! Right now, I'm just annoyed Alfie hasn't hit, as I'm not allowed to crack into the BBQ foods like the bacon and eggs until the Cyclone hits "In case we lose power"...
    • I love fastener joints, the price difference between them and joints like Bunnings or Super Cheap is amazing, and they either have exactly what you want, or they can get it to quick They have even given me some for free when I only needed a couple of specific size In saying this, I have paid premium for fasteners from Bunnings if they have the sizes I need, but only for convenience really, as my local is only 10 minutes away, the Sushi joint near them is also a consideration  How's the weather Matt? Stay safe mate
    • Wideband is worth setting up if only for tuning purposes. I would not mess with the ignition system unless there's a misfire. HKS crank trigger is popular out here for the relatively easily sourced Denso crank sensor, not a bad idea to install as well regardless of power level on a standalone. Boost leak test is worth thinking about. Oil pressure sensor tied to a fuel cut isn't a bad idea either. Getting the tune figured out is a good idea. Without putting eyes on it and getting under it there's no way for us to tell you exactly what it needs but most likely you're down to the last 10% that will make a big, big difference in how happy you are with the car.
