    Ferrari,Porsche,Vette,55 Chevy, vs GTS ACR - ACTUAL RACE TEST

    I wanna know why people paid 100k to watch it. Is that all they got for the 100k?

    guys need input on a possible race

    Remember, Sir Hiss ran mid 7s, and he streeted it. I was also reading about Mustangs in Super Street Outlaw (I believe) running 7s on 10.5" slicks. Those cars looked vaguely streetable too. And by "vaguely" I mean "you better pray the cops don't see that". Both of those are large cube V8s...

    Just make sure you have someone else hold the money. Matter of fact, I wouldn't get mixed up with idiots.

    Elite Motorsports Side of the Story

    Hmmm... I don't want to get mixed up in this, but I would have thought the addition of a clutch strong enough to hold the higher torque would be a part of a 10.5 second package.

    guys need input on a possible race

    Are you sure he doesn't mean 7 second 1/8? An RX7 in the 7s will have total race body, cage + checker plate interior, Lenco, rear tyres that almost touch each other, parachute etc. Here are some 7 second RX7s: http://www.rotormaster.com.au/subPage.asp?cid=35 He is most likely talking smack if...

    Car shutting down at 4600 RPM ?

    Fuel pumps can suck a lot of current when pushing max flow at max pressure.. maybe check how the pumps have been wired - if maybe something is cutting them because of too high current, if they are cutting out because of too big a voltage drop.. just a guess..?

    TNT rear mount turbo

    How the hell do you patent using a turbocharger how it was intended, just a little further downstream?

    TNT rear mount turbo

    Turbos work off airflow. Hotter inlet air is just higher pressure and more energetic. You will most likely get less power than a conventional turbo, but lag would probably not be too much worse. Oiling isn't that hard to fix. Not a very elegant solution, but cheap and easy, and the size of the...

    Macedo's Aerial Photo

    Re: Macedo\'s Aerial Photo Is the logo painted or Photoshopped on? Looks aliased... No real reason to ask... just I'm a geek.

    Nitrogen at Costco for your tires

    Great points. Gas law does still apply, so the "nitrogen expands less" point is BS. Less water vapor will cause less expansion and less of the corrosive effects on the inside of the tire. But like joe says, there is a heap of water in there anyway - the soapy goo they use to slip the tire on...

    Shipping Viper to the UK????

    Holy crap - that bumblebee was shipped roll-on roll-off? I know some of the guys who do the rolling on and rolling off here in Melbourne and I wouldn't trust them with a Fiesta! I'm currently in the process of shipping a couple of old muscle cars to Australia. Using a company called Accord...

    Dr. Roof's 1108HP Twin Turbo Dyno Sheet

    Re: Dr. Roof\'s 1108HP Twin Turbo Dyno Sheet I believe 1200 is the limit on the Dynojet. Odd that the power curve wasn't flattened too? Could be time for a Sir Hiss style rear end, and into the sevens with the front in the air!

    Simple line drawings of a GTS needed.

    Oh man... Fosters: I don't know anyone who drinks that.. matter of fact, I can't remember the last time I even saw it at the liquor store?

    UNSOLVED MIStery. For those who want a challenge, I need major help.

    That looks like the same 2 points in the other thread, where the "V Notch" is happening. I have no idea why a cam or crank sensor could just lose it at those two engine speeds though? The fuel pressure needle thing does seem strange... maybe it is going nuts because of sudden changes in flow...

    Heh heh, more to the point, it was 6pm after a hard day and I already had about 5 cans down..

    Snake is smelling a bit Funky

    If it is the tyre, maybe get it shrink wrapped or put in some kind of huge zip lock bag?

    V Notch Displayed

    With speedy and willing support like that, I wouldn't hesitate to buy :) Rare these days.. just ask ab ;)

    My Viper caught fire on Dyno at 5000rpm !

    Cop Magnet, No, I'd say it would think very lean. The sensor measures concentration of oxygen, and as it is covered in wet fuel, it can't do its thing.

    V Notch Displayed

    If I were you, I would try to get an oscilloscope with data capture, and capture the voltage across each injector during a run. This will rule out, or reveal, if injectors are staying shut or open.
