I am feeling a bit bored. Maybe I'll head out tomorrow night in rwd and give it a go. Need the practice. First time and all.

It's a bit tricky to get it off the line quick. It just wants to spin the wheels on stall.

if all geos well ill run this saturday see what it does very keen to improve on my old time

I would be keen too but I will have a car here to work on. :(

Tuning the 76 tomorrow night, I can already see there will be improvement, hopefully the top end is the same or better too.

Do it !!!!!!!!!!!!!??????????

Couldn't find you after Rudi, you must have Taken off. Well done on the pb.

For the first time, it was a steep learning curve! I lol'd at myself for doing single spinner burn outs. Oh well. :P

1st run was a 13.96 at 100 mph so I was happy to be in the 13s / 100s right away. Nice feeling. Second run was a mass of wheel spin off the line and a 14.8 lol. Tried too much stall.

Last and best run was a 13.84 at 161km with a 2.2 60 foot. Found that I could only launch with a bees dick worth of boost, like1psi. Otherwise it was just instant single tyre frying!

Look forward to getting the front shaft in and shooting for a 13.5.

Nice work guys!

Well done Alex on a 13 first time out! Time for that LSD and the front shaft; there's obviously a fair bit more in it with some stall and more traction. :thumbsup:

I'd really like to get out next Wed if anyone is keen; would've loved to go last night, but work gets in the way...

Thanks Dale.

Rudi, I parked up and went to watch some cars. Those ford turbos really boogy. The PAC rotor was good to watch too.

It was a great feeling reeling people in down the track. The start was slow, but all the cars I raced I reeled in down the track. Just the feeling like it was over so quick too.

Good work Alex :)

2.2 is very good for a heavy car with a single spinner. Shows the 3.5 has the torque to move the weight.

    • So sadly the fuel pump etc was not it. The pump and filter is new and it is still cutting around 4000 rpm. A read something about ABS/TCS (engine is from stagea and ECU too so no TCS) and i dont know for 100% that my car has ABS. It has ABS "cube" in engine bay but i dont think it works(or at least from my braking experience). Can be something like that?  I will be driving the car next week to Nistune tuner to properly see what is wrong...  
    • the Tomei LSD fluid with lsd kit. frustrated that it was shaking the car to crap and affecting everything else negatively, I pulled the diff last night, and removed the lsd carrier, could not find anything wrong, however it seem to be 100 locked up acceleration, and deacceleration, wondering if they sent me a 2 way not a 1.5??  either way I installed the stock open carrier back in place. test drove everything smooth as butter again. no shake, shutter, random, what felt like clutch slip and grab or drive shaft play, etc. something differently wrong in side the lsd. I might bother taking it apart (if possible) to figure out what's going on inside this carrier, as bought too long ago to return.  only draw back is its back to a one wheel wonder.
    • If there's oil in with the clutch, I hope it finds its way out even if that hole has a cover/grommet 😛 I don't want oil near my cars clutch! 😛 Interested to hear the answer about covering it, I'm assuming a bung for a gearbox from another car that has a grommet to suit.
