Phill_Hunt Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 The mystery is intriguing.Tell me about it... I feel like stripping it down and starting again so I know exactly what has been done. I would go the forged route, if only I could afford it [emoji23] Sent from my SM-N910F using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savage bulldogs Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 Yeah when I saw the drag slicks on the back of that skyline I new it was going to disappear off the line here's my first run and times 14.2 quarter crap launch: https://youtu.be/yH0jQNXO_g4 Sorry the clip is so long but I don't know how to trim my snails approach out of the vid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D.Pavely Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 It's the hat on the parcel shelf that let you down worth half a second easy. -- I make Films, Websites and social media for people I did warn him lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D.Pavely Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 Must've been. I'm gonna be all technical next time. Checking tyre pressures and all sorts. Carry less fuel. Drain the washer bottle. Have a wee before I go out too.Bring a bag of ice crush it up and stuff in the scoop seen this being done and it works Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoobyghost Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 I may look into a new/larger tmic. Pinch your design and add ic spray. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaulson Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 Jesus, shows you how fast skylines are doesn't it lol. Good effort though Savage, you scoob sounds awesome! Gambit, wasn't it you that's the dancing man? ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savage bulldogs Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 I wasn't disappointed with the scoob just wish I'd have had chance to have a couple of more blats to do the old girl justice [emoji48] I think I should have at least took my mates boys car seat out off the back let alone the tools and 60 piece socket set out of the boot, cos they were fooking everywhere when I got home [emoji23] 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaulson Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 Not only would you have had less work when you got home but you may have also knocked quite a bit of time off lol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savage bulldogs Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 I may look into a new/larger tmic. Pinch your design and add ic spray.After waiting so long stationery with the engine running in the sun I'll definitely be looking into lagging the reversed inlet pipework and maybe some inlet manifold thermal spacers .

Gaulson Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 There we go, decided to get in on the action and have a solo drag race.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoobyghost Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 After waiting so long stationery with the engine running in the sun I'll definitely be looking into lagging the reversed inlet pipework and maybe some inlet manifold thermal spacers .I was watching the oil temp and ended up pushing it halfway up the queue. A lot of my fins are bent on the ic and when it comes to 0.3 of a second I'm sure that all counts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savage bulldogs Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 My oil temps/pressure and knock levels were fine but when I popped the bonnet in the que I think we could have cooked a few of boot's sausages on my fmic core to inlet pipework [emoji4] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gambit Posted July 6, 2015 Author Share Posted July 6, 2015 On the second run Scoob started to really pick up in 3rd and leave that civic behind as I passed my brv filming [emoji41] But you can hear me miss 4th just after I passed him [emoji57] Better launch: https://youtu.be/N6I_TatiFw4 First run was quicker overall but with a 1.9 second reaction time(hhhmmmm purdy lights lol ) and a miss daisy launch I let the car down [emoji4] I'll take a pic of the run times in a min I have some footage too just need to sort it :) Right Phil just to confirm Japfest 2 and japshow aren't the same. But Japshow finale at santa pod is confirmed with us as a live event already in october. I'll definitely be there again as long as I have no major issues, and no not getting excuses in :D lol I'm already wanting the next one which is a good thing as are so many others. I think people need to get names down and attend to feel the buzz of clubstand :) And boot's sausage's Haha 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mfnick Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 Aww I can't view the pics. [emoji20] Not on Facebook. Are you sure? I always set the pics to public on stuff like this. Should be able to see them even without an account. & no probs on the vids ill get them sorted. Let me know on the pics too if you still cant view them. Ill upload them elsewhere if thats the case. Anyone know a good photo hosting site i could use? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
