well im not overly impressed with the car but its faster then the silver 1....
i havnt got the slips on me atm, but ill postem up soon...

it went 13.8@101 with real cruizy gear changes as for sum unknown reason the clutch kept sticking to the floor
so i didnt get any decent runs in without a misshapp

the old car went 13.60@100 so the mph is there to be faster

found these on fullboost.com.au

ive got sum incar footage aswell on a 14.2@87mph wen the clutch stuck 3rd/4th
an sum outside footage on a 15.0 n/a run

. any future mod's? or still going to sell it?

Parfrey · Post by **Parfrey** » December 8th, 2008, 9:18 pm

seems like you need a better clutch.. or dont flatshift it as much.
would you be able to give parker the money for those tyres aswell??

BBQBurner · Post by **BBQBurner** » December 8th, 2008, 10:18 pm

i had that in the EL, it's the weights on the pressure plate that give it extra clamping force that hold the pedal down when you flat shift, try adjusting your cable so it closer to the floor, will stop the weights from going past their hinge point. worked for me

thats the conclusion me an my mechanic came up with,
ive back the cable of a bit an put in a decent return spring off the clutch fork to the body
havnt had a drama with it yet,
im guna take it to the next meet an see if i can get a better number out of it
im not happy with the 13.8 jan

have you got an EA or EB onwards flywheel. I had the same problem, and I had an EA flywheel, and the pressure plate that suits that flywheel couldnt handle high rpm gear shifts. anything over 5000rpm was a lottery, which sucked considering I should be changing around 58000-5900 rpm. BA Mk1 turbo flywheel and clutch to suit sorted that good.

Impressive times though on the gas.

Sorta makes me want to fit my kit now and crack a low 13.

YBYAVL · Post by **YBYAVL** » December 9th, 2008, 8:41 pm

its a 3bolt flywheel (duno wat they came out off)
and brandnew Clutch Industies clutch, it was mint, wen i hit the gas didnt slip once....jus stuck down
ive got a 2nd hand 6bolt 1 here, if u rekn thats guna make any difference

ye i dont have a problem untill i start changin at around 5200 then like u sed,its the lottery,
wen it stuck 3rd an 4th i was on a kickass run an as i hit 2nd an it took off again i thought SWEET!
into 3rd...SWEET....into 4th SWWTF, WTFs THAT SHIT! **KiCK** **KiCK** **KiCK**

ahwell, the trials an tribulations of budget racin

Dansedgli · Post by **Dansedgli** » December 9th, 2008, 8:44 pm

3 bolt is EA-EB1.

6 bolt is EB2 to BA.

OED666 · Post by **OED666** » December 9th, 2008, 8:46 pm

ea's had the 3 bolt flywheel = gayer than aids. throw in the 6 bolt, and you'll be right. the clutch i had with the 3 bolt was good, and copped some abuse, but just didnt like high rpm shifts..

my clutch pedal used to come out so farken hard it my foot would get pins and needles.

YBYAVL · Post by **YBYAVL** » December 9th, 2008, 8:48 pm

i was kinda savin the 6bolt 1 for the drifter...
the funy thing is i went driftin with this 3bolt clutch an it never stuck once
an that was changin up high...

*sigh*
out comes the box again eh!

thanks for the tips guys

OED666 · Post by **OED666** » December 9th, 2008, 8:49 pm

get a BA Mk1 flywheel for the drifter.. nice and farken light. like nearly 4 kg's lighter, and it makes a difference!

YBYAVL · Post by **YBYAVL** » December 9th, 2008, 8:52 pm

YBYAVL · Post by **YBYAVL** » January 12th, 2009, 2:21 pm

bought sum new wheels for the shitter the otherday....500 well spent me thinks (till i get over them again)

went over to blupower with dylan to pikup his 310.4rwkw beast
an we slapped mine on fora run aswell

129.4kw@rw N/A
185.1kw@rw - 75hp Jets

then it was off down the hwy for a cruize

then came friday night...tuffffff as FUK!

then along came a 180sx and a VL eitherside of me...then 400m an 165km/h later
these boys joind in

the 180 couldnt join us for our after race party, seems he turnd off an went the otherway jus in time

45km/h over the speed limit and street racing...

Cop - "Wats ur reason for exceeding the speed limit by more then 45km/h?"
Me - "impossible, ive got 4.11s an i was onli in 3rd gear, i wouldnt have been past 110"
Cop " well we were sitting on 140 an u were pulling away from us"
Me - *Cheesy Grin*
Cop - "wats ur reason for street racing"
Me - "it was the 180s fault, they were teasing me saying my car was slow....i showd'em aye!"
Cop - "u sure did"
Me - "howcome u pulled me over an not the 180?"
Cop - "u were clearly the faster car an we were stuggling to catch u, an by the time u pulled over, the 180sx had turnd around an we could onli get the VL commodore comming towards us"
Me - "hehe, so wat r u saying....i won?"
Cop - "i like to think that we won"
Me - "I wasnt racing u"
Cop - "well if it makes u happier, yes u won"

$490 and court appearence

and they let me pull the nitrous bottle out
so much thanks to kyle for takin me an alex to preston this morning to pik up the cars

and there we have it.....48hrs and $490 later the cars back in the driveway...
an if any1s wondering y its not gone for 3mnths, its coz i havnt been to court yet for the 1st time the car got takin off me, so ive got no convictions....

that'll all changed now haha

serial_fool · Post by **serial_fool** » January 15th, 2009, 10:31 pm

YBYAVL- Nice Nitrous setup you've got there. What kind of depletion N20 wise per shot are you getting with what level of power increase for how long (kinda 3 questions bundled into one)? Just another aswell- have you thought about having 6 couples of solenoids with one set per intake pipe to improve effeciency?

Post by **MATTii** » January 19th, 2009, 3:04 pm

lol we need footage of some burnouts!!!!!!

Post by **BLCKED** » January 28th, 2009, 10:10 pm

oi luke

when you go to court the magistrate determines a time to have the car re-impounded for then they come and pick it up next day.

i lost mine for 6 weeks and 2k fines.

so not too bad, lawyer told me it depends on driving record wich think ours is pretty similar.

YBYAVL · Post by **YBYAVL** » January 29th, 2009, 11:56 am
