Considering it's a button clutch don't ride it. And be careful with the slicks, ive seen car snap all kinds of thing trying to launch too hard on sticky slicks/tracks

yeah ill be making sure my tailshaft is A1 before going... worst comes to worst i do snap something, fingers crossed i don't, ive got the trailor there to just tow back home. ---------- Post added 24-06-10 at 09:16 ---------- im going on Semi slicks also

how much power is the car making ? also yeah et streets on a fully prepped track such as calder will be a totally different ball game compared to the street on regular road radials.

280rwkw on 14psi will be seeing how i go on the current 14psi tune then in a few more weeks ill bump it up to 24-26psi

Sounds like it should be a bit of fun, got an r33 5 speed box?

yeah mate r33 gtst

Lmao let me guess a ridiculous dyno figure on such low boost means it had to be tuned at jpc, is marks dyno on ice these days? I'm really looking forward to seeing this and another jpc vl race Saturday other ones making 210rwkw with a t3 and boost cooler and exhaust yet it ran a 13.7 with a three speed comon man I've seen cars with 170rwkw come out of other shops like rajabs, created and initial d and gtech and run 12.5-12.9s with the same setups and same drivers or driving experience

Yes the car was tuned at JPC... we will just see what happens on the night.. i wont be racing sat, ill be there july 9th.

Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

I have heaps of trouble launching my vl off the line. 1st gear is wheelspin from the moment boost hits. 2nd gear spins the wheels as well and thats only with 200rwkw. The T3 is very responsive so im guessing its harder to launch with a T3 than a GT35/40 because it hits boost so early through the gears. CSLFLY let us know how you go mate as i will be throwing on a 35/40 with a .82 rear very soon and i will be chasing power that is similar to what you have.

cheers nick and vlaero.. cars booked in JPC on tuesday to get a few things sorted out so hopefully still going to go on the 9th. nick ill buzz you when im ready so u can come watch Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

I dunno I don't believe any1s dyno figures anymore and won't say its tuff till I see it's driving or on the track simple as that, a dyno figure is just an estimation tool two diff dynos means two diff readings is how I see it aswell, I know marks good...and any1 that knows mark will say his good but I know for a fact his certainly not the best but hey that's my 2c and u can't buy anything for 2c these days Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
