tDR Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 Got a good few runs in today as it was a non mag day so nice and quiet. Weather wasn't brilliant with spates of rain but still managed to set a decent benchmark time for my standard car before starting with the mods. My best was a 13.58 @ 103.4 MPH with 2.03 sec 60ft time with road tyres on Crail's crappy surface. Here's a time slip.... you can see when it was raining! My bro set some decent times in his ST205 GT-Four to qualify for TOTB in the GT4OC's lot. Was his first outing after us doing a forged rebuild with Mitsubishi TD06-20G turbo on, supporting mods of 800cc injectors, Power FC etc: Now on with the modding for me and should see some decent times pretty soon! Cheers, Brian. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tDR Posted June 18, 2006 Author Share Posted June 18, 2006 Cheers guys Spec is standard TT auto (non vvti), just a walbro pump (making it overfuel like a bitch so no help on standard boost), koni shocks with eibach springs and 18" wheels with 265 width rear Falken FK-452 tyres @ 30psi.

Pig Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 I run 35 psi, is this to high on 17"?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesmark Posted June 18, 2006 Share Posted June 18, 2006 Gary has done not bad, was speaking to Elaine and she told me the car is not going after all. Good show there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tDR Posted June 18, 2006 Author Share Posted June 18, 2006 I run 35 psi, is this to high on 17"?? IMO 25psi is optimal on the strip for road tyres m8, gets some flex in the tyre sidewalls and is worth a tenth or so Not for road though.... jamesmark - first I've heard of it! I think that's just Elaine being a moan, Gary will attend TOTB come hell or high water! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, this was his first shakedown run after we rebuilt it m8, used a thickwall block this time. Not fully mapped yet but looking promising after today. Elaine will always encourage Gary to drop the car habit but I'm his bro and I know better lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
