You went all the way down to see Matty Spry and didn't swing pass to say hi????

I also went to bed late paying for it now :/

Sorry to hear about your mates car Scottie.

What power did it make before she gave way?

534rwhp through a 3spd auto box on 28psi... Reading doesnt do it justice. Its quicker than my car

Unfortunately, when you do this with old engines, something inevitably goes bang.

Correct, If it didnt break on the dyno. No doubt we would have broke it on the drive home lol

It is what it is

Not necessarily. It's under strain on the dyno. You could have been fine on the way home and then blown it at QR. Good luck getting back to Bribie form there!

He would have given it a full boot on the way home on highway for sure. Loves going fast too much. But yeah either way would have blown last night or at Downshift on Sunday morning. Which wouldnt have been great for me as I have to go to work afterwards on sunday

Lol. Fair enough. At least you have red bull.

Cruisung up a long hill in a high gear is also possibly more load than a lap at QR. Also being on the dunno is not inherently strenuous, for power runs the ramp rate is low and it's under very little load! LEAVE DYNOS ALONE *cries*

Morning all, trying to get a half day at work I'm f**ked between doing massive hours, trying to cut and lifting last night I'm f**ked :(

Don't say that, it's ment to be sunshine and lollipops... You trying to discourage me lol

Im not discouraging. Just advising

V... What, V! f**kING WHAT, V!!!

Get out!

Redbull fo life :rant:

I know i feel ashamed of myself. I cant justify $5 for a 355ml can of Redbull.

If it was from a standing start, instead of a rolling start where every single factor is in your favor, you should be worried about his powah, but I will say one thing for you, you choose your battles well!

Wonder why he tries to line me up then.. Delusional?

Thinking like Nick here, and it is scary, but I imagine he is hoping you will miss a gear, then he will never race you again :P

This actually happened at Downshift last month.. .Missed 3rd so he had me at half track. Got him back by the end though... Damn kids and there Auto V8's

    • We just disconnected the vacuum line if I remember correctly, booster is still there. Is there a rebuild solution for the booster or a different adapter that will work for GTR chassis?
    • Yeah 4wd (boosted) has a recess in the firewall for the booster, and 2wd is flat - the example in the link shows the flat surface. When you deleted the booster, did you just attach the factory slave cylinder directly to the recess in the firewall with no adaption?  
    • Yes, but no. You need to keep the mating surfaces bare (ie the flat faces where the caliper and upright pads touch the dogbone) and also the internal threads will remain bare (unless there are no internal threads - do they use nuts on all the bolts?). So you can slow down obvious external corrosion, but not all of it. Anodising would be required to provide decent protection to the alloy, but I'm not actually sure if you should anodise something that is all about the strength. Anodising does reduce strength significantly. Like, up to 50% on some alloys for high thickness coating.
    • Thanks   does painting on aluminium work or stop them from corroding?
    • 'Sgot nothing to do with them being Japanese. The climate in the north of Japan has similarities to the UK - the cars are made in the knowledge that they have snow and salt, and they rot there. Cars made in the US rot like buggery in the US. British cars have always rotted regardless of the weather. They will rot indoors in a climate controlled bubble! The brackets are not unsafe yet, but they will get that way. They may well corrode where the bolt threads are in contact and the bolts could just jump out without warning.
