ran 11.07 at 119 mph at jambo against squizz to just get the win.. good racing ...

good news is i was on the limiter 50 mtrs before the line in 4th gear...oops...

my new federal 275-40-17s tyres were hooking up great all day 1.64 best 60ft......

was a great few days at jambo...

At least you found 4th gear, read your timeslip and check my mph, can you say caosting in nuetral :P And yes I swore, alot :D

Happy to be beaten by a fellow 'Liner though. Had a top day.

Squizz, invite them on the forum and get em to post their times. At least they'll have a timeslip to upload........AHEM......squizz.......COUGH!!!

Adrian

I'll have my Jambo slips uploaded tonight for you, keep your pants on.

thanks leewah... its all great to see it all come togther as you know...

the main prob with the r34 gtr is its so heavy....car has now run 11.0 4 times now so its up to the monkey driving to get perfect gear shifts and launch then it will all happen...

cheers....

ran last night and so so close. 11.07 at 120mph... 11.04 at 127.8mph and the real bummer is an 11.00 at 127.5mph... the track was pretty average so a better track will bring the result i am after....

any way seems to run consistant times on the bright side...ha ha..

Hi Mark, please tell me your running those times on semi slicks? Coz if your doing those times on street tyres in a heavier 34model, and complaining about that .0001 for a 10, you deserve a big :slap: .. for being too hard on yourself. !!!Thats awesome!!!

running 275-40-17 FEDERAL street tyres..... great tyres for street and track..and cheap price about 270.00 each i think.....nitto tyres would put me into the 10s but are 400 to 450 bucks each and not able to run them in the new sport compact rwd awd street classes...so whats the point....

still running 6 speed getrag . seems cool so far has done a lot of drag strip work....

thanks guys...

    • Interesting, I haven't read about the issue with oil getting into the speedo in the cluster before. I'll have to take more notice with mine. The speedo on my R32's when I've run factory diff and tyre size have never been accurate as far as I can remember. The non Type-M GTS-t did come with 15" 5 stud wheels and smaller brakes, but that's less than 5% of them.
    • Good to hear the condenser you picked up off my brother worked all good. Do you think there could be an issue with your AC compressor itself or the clutch on it then? I don't know a lot about them so I can't really help but keen to hear what it ends up being. Keep the build thread going man, it's nice to look back on over time.
    • This is a story of my life things, I learned eventually (thanks to someone calling me out) that my enthusiasm for discussing and sharing ideas that it came across as arrogance and I'm like... WTF?!    One thing I'm pretty sure I justifiably pride myself on is knowing that everyone will have things they can teach you, and you're always going to find out that something you think you know turns out wrong - you just don't know what it is until you get there.   Just the bursting enthusiasm that comes with ADHD when you hit something that gives you dopamine dumps can come across like you think everyone else is wrong or don't matter. But yeah, I'm a software engineer by trade and also do tuning in weekends and 100% have long had a reputation for  quickly making connections when resolving problems or forming solutions that I've sometimes had to take people form a long walk from start to end to explain how I ended up where I did when it's seemed "too simple" when I've stated my initial case, and had the "WTF" type reaction when they've realised how much was actually considered haha.   My reward is that I get all the curly problems thrown at me.
    • Wives never seem to find things funny. Especially when they're trying to sleep, and you've found the new funniest thing ever. I've never seen someone be able to get try and be cranky with me, while they're holding back fits of laughter... 😛   Also, I tell mine it's payback anyway. She has BiPolar. So the household can get quite emotionally wild at times 😛
    • I'm not up to date on the latest, but for basic modifications like pod filter, lower springs etc you can get a modification permit at the time of inspection.  For more serious modifications you will need engineering.  Intercoolers used to fall into the mod permit rule but its been a long while since i looked it up.   Either way you will be able to get it registered, just a case of $300 vs $3k .
