Nah rally stuff makes you look like a muppet. There you are trying to read the notes and the bloody photographers make it look like you are trying to find a spot under the dash to hide.

Second one from Wanneroo. Note the multiple black lines & the Emo with the fail understeer.

Lol, Lancer shitbox doing what they do best !

Tim's balls are that big he's probably reading a novel while I "drive"......

Here I think he was looking for one of his many women in the spectators;

And lol @ understeer of fail on the Evo..... boring cars. Fast. But boring.

What sort of times were you doing with the supra at lakeside Harry.

Care to share what was done to it?

It ran a best of 60.7 the only time I drove it on the new surface at lakeside. That was on KU36 tyres.

It was a 93 RZ 6speed, so it was the lightest of them, but still fairly hefty at 1530kg on the weighbridge! without me! I also ran it very light on fuel at Lakeside. About 1/4tank and would top it up with a jerry can during the day. Never had any fuel surge problems.

The early V160 Getrag had shorter gearing than the later VVT models with the V161, which probably helps.

All it had was Tein Flex coilovers that were pretty shagged by that stage - the RR was leaking and started axle tramping that day at Lakeside. The nice Rays GramLights with 245 and 275 KU36s. It had as much camber on the front as we could get with the stock adjustment - about 2.5degrees. Castor wasn't very much because of the way it was adjusted you had to compromise between static camber and castor, we went with max static camber. Zero toe. I didn't let them touch the rear alignment because it handled so sweetly the way it was, so no idea of what setting were there.. I found it was very sensitive to ride height adjustments and ended up with 600mm rear and 595 front from the lower edge of the 18" rims to the gaurds.

Brakes were the small/early 2/1 sliders with TRW Lucas pads which worked great.

Engine wise it had a Pod filter and cat-back exhaust. Still had the stock side mount intercooler and boost was standard 10psi. I ran it in TTC mode because it gave better midrange grunt than sequential and more linear response exiting corners. The next owner had it dyno'd as it was and made 186rwkw before he went single turbo.

To beat the factory speed cut I just disconnected the odometer at the track.

i still think it would be faster than my current 200rwkw 1250kg 180SX if I put proper semis on it like the 180 has...

    • I've been building a 26/30 for a few years now. I've had the head built with all the good stuff. I had a 32 gtr but blew it up and yes its all going into a vl but im looking for some advice from some RB nuts on pros and cons on putting a 26 head on a 30 bottom end is it worth it Works are as follows Head -Extensive porting 1mm oversized supertech valves Supertech double springs Supertech valve guides Supertech titanium retainers Tomei solid lifters Tomei 270 x 10.25 cams Head drain Bottom end series 2 rb30 block Cp ceramic coated pistons Eagle rods Romac balancer Oil restrictions  O ringed blah blah spent a fortune And will get a girdle because the 30s arent used to handling that much rpm Nitto billet oil pump Hypertune plenum 6boost mani Refurbed astra pump thats the cover for it in the boot I did have a precision 6262 but sold it because drag car life. Currently building the ass end full 4 link floater rear end with a 2 speed  But the dilemma i have is my mate rekens I should just stick with the 30 head for reliability. Has any one had any issues with mounting the 26 head ie compression blowing gaskets etc. Just looking for some advice from people who have gone down this route. Here's some photos. Blew the oil pump in the gtr and decided to rip the motor out at the time and do a full build only to find it had been a repairable write off so went down this path.

    • lol no cats running str pipes … might put the high flow back on but I suspect it might effect my ignition timing a bit. 
    • That looks a bit like yellowing to me. If the rear bar was looking like that from rich idle, I'd ask the question, do you have a catalytic converter fitted, and fully working?
    • Oh yeah gets really bad down here. I’ll have to upgrade the heater and wind screen wipers as well for optimal performance.
