Had a good time

First run on a 1/4 ever i got [email protected] 2.188 60ft!

Next few runs were bad 60ft times.. out of 8 runs only 2 were less than 2.3, not sure what i changed but it definately affected my 60ft. Worst 60ft was 2.508 which i got twice! Best et was 4th run i think, 13.878 @ 102.93 2.206 60ft. thought i had 13.7 :)

Good nite though, cant wait to give it another go, i was really suprised to see how much changing little things affects your times, i did a burnout and got a worse 60ft than i did before, upping boost made 60ft times worse, but more mid/top end. Guess the more playing around the better u get

I found an error on one of my time slips too, on the 13.9 run the other person got 14.599 and for margin it says 1.088 ?

2.998!

 

O M G ...

Ha! call that a 60ft time?? I've had a 6.59 you pussies :wassup:

Tonight my best were 2.097,2.082 and 2.029 got no top end though best I could do was 13.8 at 100.27mph and 13.9 at 104....good enough to win 5 out of 8 runs though 2 of the losses went to a 10.9 at 130mph and a 14.09 at 126mph.

Got myself a rotary too + Holden ute and a commidor

Fairly average night topped off by collecting a $150 fine ...89 in a 70 zone.

After cruising all the way home just under the limits I had a momentary lapse of attention.....at the end of the Centenary Hwy....of all places....it really pissed me off!!!

Nice to see you guys out there. knore seems to have got off to a good start :)

Addit: I got track slicks....but I got no squat

Shyyt! I was lucky then, i was following MJ and the rest of the lines when i realised my bonnet was popped! so i pulled over closed it and made haste to catch up :Oops:

Hey matt, can u post up the details for that 14 flat run i did, i didnt end up collecting the time slip cause i went through the pile like 3 times and couldnt find it

Im still trying to figure out why nearly all my 60ft's were 2.4+, I wasnt getting wheelspin, the only thing i can think of on my 2 13 runs were i got to stage first and wasnt rushed, so i must have got the stall just right. I tried using the handbrake on one, but it broke traction when i released which gave me a 14.5

After last nite i kinda want a stall converter, cos i just couldnt stall high enough, on one of my races i was against a 180sx, he got a 12.88 with a 1.766 60ft!!

If we could get a 1.766 then imagine the ET ;)

Is your car an auto Knore?

Yes, thats where the problem is

Everything else is fine, i just cant load up enough power at the start

Im thinking about going on a full tank next time, so i can stall higher without the wheels spinning. Whats affecting my 60ft is that few seconds on 2.5L power (or lack of i should say) before the turbo hits. If i can cut that out, 2.0 60ft should be obtainable and good for some mid 13s

I tried stalling higher, but the wheels started spinning on the starting line :Oops:

      So whats the deal with the porous block VR30DDTT

      By 180 wanabe · Posted

      SO whats the deal with this issue? I've read a heap of posts from the infinity owners in the US having full engine swaps done under warranty. Most claims are done on earlier cars than 2019 but I'm sure I've come across claims of 2020 models also having this issue. I like the 400r and Q50Red/S but can't fathom dumping close to 50k on a car with terminal issues!!!

      The above video is working normally. That is, that's how the right hand indicator should cancel when rotating the wheel left.

      My BMW 335i

      By PranK · Posted

      I noticed that I could see creatures on the moon when I turned my new headlights on. I thought I should check the alignment. It's pretty rudimentary but I just grabbed some dry wall and put it against my tablet and made sure the beam was below the height on the headlights. Ie the beam is at 600mm on my car, I just made it lower than that 7.5m away.  Not the best but it'll do until I can do it properly at the local shops.

      Ceramic turbine damage to engine - what did yours do?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      As @Duncan said - the bores are most likely to cop it. But anything can and does happen. Rods are cheap. Rods are good. The work to rebuild the motor will be 30x the price of rods. You won't notice it.

      By Erelyes · Posted

      Yeah car has 110 on the clock. That said the front turbo (that exploded) doesn't seem to be the original, it has a S1 part number but the car is a series 3. Yep, in the cat is where I first found the turbine wheel pieces - a couple decent sized ones, then a whole lot of fragments.  I agree, probably makes sense to upgrade parts that are being replaced. Things like rods would be 'nice' but realistically it seems unlikely they would need replacing. I was hoping that it was a case that they generally f**k up the valves but not the bore, or vice versa. Is it generally the scour damage rather than ceramic bits getting mashed into the piston tops / valves? I tried a search but couldn't find any threads with pics from the guts of a motor that's had this happen.
