This is Sundeep

Daniel the AIT guy was running a straight no filter dose pipe and a headlight out as his CAI and he had no issues. Lucky kunt. You shoulda 3540'd and dodged injector'd yours up and ran 12's easy. Dumb kent.

My clutch seemed OK, I've never had issues with it so I don't know what to feel or look for.

I clocked the speedo for the first time though, past 200k/h when I cracked the shts after missing 3rd. Lol.

I was thinking log manifold and 3540 last night. Then I remembered how over it I am and how much easier an auto conversion will be.

Yeah what Dave said Sunny, seemed to bogging down from where we were standing.
I dunno how you get decent launches nearly every time Gilly.

Definately a Heathcote trip to be on the cards in the next few weeks if people are keen, I know Max wants to run his new car.

I'm up for Heathcote too, and I wasn't getting good launches nearly everytime! Got a fair few 2.3 sec 60' times, but done a big big burnout on the last run then launched it from some stupidly high revs and got a 1.9 second 60' time. Other than that I only got one more 2.0 60'.

inconsistency sucks.

Sick I'll take it Dane! Does it shift good and stuff? If it doesn't I'd say a solenoid's stuffed, if that's the case I won't want it lol.. you can't use those electronic shift kits with fkd solenoids.

Let me know if it's any good.

stuff going back to auto just to get a 13. You haven't even fucked a clutch or t5 yet. John Fernando spec T5 needs to be driven hard. :lol:

GT 35/40 it or die.

Seriously it's more of a cruise car/dose mobile, not a dedicated drag car, and it's quicker and more sexy then most e-series already. Stop getting over it and toughen the **** up. :D

Yes, SHY4D is on here as TUFFNC.

did someone say it wouldnt run 14sec? well, many people would say that and rightly so, the car is heavy and doesnt look like much. in fact my mates were in the crowd and heard some guys say when i pulled up to stage "here comes a 20sec pass". well they got a bit of a shock when it passed at 14.666. Even my mate was doubting i would get a 14.

and im quite happy with that result...street trim, tank of juice, sterio, drive up, race, drive back( to n from geelong

    good work SHY4D i was going to come chat to ya but i jumped the fence 3 times and everytime I got booted strait away.. The fairlane looks sweet and 14.6 is nothing to sniff at, you probably would have beat sunny on most of your passes. (sorry Sunny)

    You have the full JMM dev 5 kit yeah ? what was the MPH and 60 ft times ?

    Damo it's on his timeslip:

    MPH - 94.8
    60' - 2.215

    That's a pretty good result mate, good stuff.

    TUFFNC, nice ET! KPH is not bad. That 60' looks a little off though, unless the extra couple of tenths are due to the Fairlane's extra weight?

    Still, those 60' times are kind of odd considering your combo should give an awesome launch
