I was trying to be generous, Andrew <_<

Yes Paul, I think it's time I updated it - Will do it now actually. Might make it something contentious like,

"Who needs AWD, Two Turbos and engine work to run 11.685???"

Paul, I have raced my car before on the track although not in it's current state of tune. I must admit that if someone asks what times we have run i will say the car's fastest time regardless of who drove. The thought has never entered my head to make people believe that it was me driving, i have just never thought of it that way. I'm not in this to take any records or anything i just want to build a quick street car. Personally it doesn't matter to me who drove the car to what time i only care about what the time slip says at the end. Other people may feel differently to me but that's the way it is.

You guys will not be aware but i have coped alot of flack from numerous people about this car and i am sick of it, all i want to do is get it to the times i'm happy with and it will never see the track again, the sooner the better for me. Brad constantly tries to get me in to drive it myself but i must say i really don't care.

If people have misunderstood i apologise, hopefully it is more clear now  :P

what flack?! i am honestly surprised you were not out there! especially with the way brad goes on! I remember when he first started posting.. he repeatedly said the car was yours.. all credit goes to you as owner and driver.. he just did the mechanical work.. it was like he had a disclaimer at the end of each post!! and then with him going on about the 'ladies' having their own run, i was sure he was going to get you and stace to line up.. but nothing! its fine if you don't drive the car... all it takes is one change in what you say... 'the car did..' instead of 'i did..'....

and you're right.. it isn't a female dominated sport... but stacy has already pulled the spotlight towards her direction and has already done alot to promote females in this area... it DOES NOT help when someone comes along and has the attitutde that the lil girls can go play in that corner while the men have their sport... thats a great way of showing support! :\ and whether or not, thats what he meant, thats how i took it...

hey fatz!!!! i'm ready to enrol in one of your drift days! ;) maybe not your next one, the one after! (do you know when that will be?) :) hopefully i'll get a discount! :)

"Girls are weak...chuck em in th......."

What'd I miss? Stace? Mona?

Anyway...

The two WOMEN who raced at the drag day on Sunday have taken well over $5500.00 in prizemoney between them at drag racing events over the last 18 months and that deserves restec-p of the highest order. :)

They are two of the most well-seasoned drag racers that SAU has the honour of calling members and should be regarded as such.

I don't think people give them enough credit - in particular regard to the skills they have developed.

For instance, Mona. How the HELL do you cut sub .020 lights every other time?!?! It's got me beaten. ;)

Everyone have a good hard look at who the REAL racers are on this forum and in this club and then, if you're nice about it, draw from their experience. I'd like to.

0.020 lights? Maybe Mona should come along to a Wednesday night street meet where they have prizemoney for the top three best reaction times for the night.

I want to give those reaction times a go next time I go to WSID. I cracked three 0.0** RT's within a patch of 5 runs on the weekend which I was stoked about considering I'd never even got a 0.1 RT before :)

(I'm sure the 15+ runs I had earlier in the day helped a little though ;) )

      HyperGear vs Pulsar Turbo RB25DET

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      If you had to pick between Pulsar and Hypergear I would probably go Hypergear.

      R34 GTT RB rough idle problem with weird RPM gauge fluctuations

      By Joni Boi · Posted

      I would need one of these adpaters to by-pass the factory dampner: Which I don't have here atm. So I'm just going to have to bite the bullet and take out the fuel rail and inspec it. And I'll put the other spare one in, do a fuel pressure test with top half of the stock manifold off. (^from google images) If the pressure is still high, I can plumb the gauge maybe in there (circled in red) to check for the pressure after the dampner. Can't do it with the top half of the manifold in the way.

      HyperGear vs Pulsar Turbo RB25DET

      By Eric0 · Posted

      This was amazing and something I feel like a lot of younger enthusiasts, like myself, need to hear. I've been observing a local dyno shop spitting out 650-800HP RBs but when looking at their graphs, the car is basically dead until 5-6k RPM when it skyrockets.     I’ve decided to change my goal and go for that 450whp mark and aim for quick spool, responsiveness, and practicality (I can't afford my engine being a consumable, haha). Now, looking for the best suitable turbo for this application, I'm considering: • Garett GTX3076R Gen 2 ( .62 or .82) • Garrett GTX3576R Gen 2  ( .62 or .82), room for improvement later? • HyperGear ATR43SS2 ( .62 or .82) • Pulsar PSR3076  ( .62 or .82) • Pulsar PSR3576 ( .62 or .82), room for improvement later? Any recommendations? I know the HyperGear and Pulsar aren’t name brands but they’re sure budget friendly

      Can you bypass the damper as well, it can also fail

      Oops, guess I accidentally deleted the last digit of the video ID. This one drives me nuts. VCT is such a big advantage for basic driveability and it costs very little to do. It's not like we're dealing with an E60 M5 with its dedicated high pressure VVT oil pump + hydraulic line carrying 1000+ psi and all that fun stuff. I also see a lot of people speak poorly about EGR and try to delete it in modern GDI engines. The problem is modern GDI relies on cooled high pressure EGR to improve timing margin at high load + RPM. So unless you're compensating for it by raising octane you have to completely retune when it's deleted.
