Australian 400m record.

[GTWHOA]

As it stands what is the record? I realise it is probably someone who has never used an Internet forum before. The best I know of is a 13.5 that was a small insert in a zoom mag or hpi.

There are a few builds happening at the moment one of them being myself and a few others on this particular forum. So what is the best? And if it is you congratulations ;) and please no rage in this thread everyone gets worked up too easy these days lol.

[GTOJOE]

Don't know if there is one. I haven't seen anyone posting numbers.

[WestAusGTO]

Scotty is keep to set a time once his car is tuned... I'll also have a go once I get the 13gs in...

[MR2]

oh...power mods for the car...what are they? :p

[WestAusGTO]

lol.. If I can't beat 13 seconds after my mods I'm buying an EVO....

[GTO Assassin]

I'm sure someone is in the 12's. My best ever was a 13.1 @ 102. There is a thread at 3si with some times.

[GTWHOA]

Got the new turbos in now. Turbosmart AFPR should arrive soon. Gonna be doing some fine tuning over the next couple weekends and hitting up WSID on the 27th. Just gotta go to cash converters and get a helmet lol.

[Woodzy]

ohhh ...Don't break it :)

[mrgtott]

heheh, few years ago I ran a 12.3 @ 114 if memory serves me right, putting some 19t's in now so hopefully going for 11.2-11.5. These cars will do 13.5 stock all day long, you put a lil boost controller on it and it'll do a flat 13 all day long :D.

A mate of mine has an evo V and was running low 12's, we were pretty much side by side during pulls, chucked a set of cams and cam gears onto it and ran an 11.9 on stock 16g turbo!! Mind you he had supporting mods power fc, injectors, intake, exhaust etc. He has now put an ATP Gold turbo into it n runs mid 11's, my goal is to woop his ass :D hehhe

That said, a mate of mine has a gto running evo 3's, his quicker than me so I am pretty sure I wont be the quickest either, maybe different story when I get everything installed muahaha, that is until either Scotty tunes his car which could prob run 10's on that setup or Pete finishes his build with the DR750

[IPD]

i thought steve68 had that record. :suspect:

[GTOJOE]

I love how Steve says he has the fastest gto down under but he is in NZ. Aust is downunder. NZ is not the same. They may be Australia's dyslexic cousin but still not the same.

When Nicholas Biar finishes his car it could be up there.

[MR2]

That link does not work unless your his friend...tell us the details? is he on here?

[GTOJOE]

No he isn't on here. I asked him about it but he said he's too busy LOL

Build is 19Ts with fully forged engine, EXO cage TC brace, Tien EDFC, 70mm Billet throttle body, MSD fuel pump voltage controller. I'm sure there is other stuff as well just that's what he has pics of so far.

[MR2]

tell him the internet said his car is crap unless he gets on the forums :p

[GTOJOE]

Funnily enough he says he's too busy to get on the forum but his facebook is full of him posting youtube videos all day every day. If he has time for youtube he has time for 3SGTO.org :p

[mrgtott]

where are these youtube clips at?? post up the name of the clip or the posters name, i want to see this thing and yes as Mike said if he is not part of team aus his car is crap lol

[GTOJOE]

the youtube clips are not about his car.. I was just commenting on how he has time to browse youtube but not the forum.

[MR2]

Bump! Sydney people come watch!

[GTO Assassin]

Are you running Mike?

Scotty

[GTWHOA]

We can line each other up Mike haha. I'm gonna be heading down for a turn this evening if the weather holds up. It bloddy better last time I had a chance to go it was cancelled the week before after I already booked annual leave >:(

[MR2]

oh snap, your all the way from newcastle? damn well if you need a place to stay or anything shoot me a line...I'll PM you my phone etc. I live literally 20 min away from the track and have tools n shit if we need to do anything last minute to your car!

[MR2]

and no I'm not running :p how much does it cost to run out of curiosity

[GTWHOA]

All good man cheers its only a couple hours away. Its $50 to race or 20 to watch.

[MR2]

next time I'll run though...just gotta get things 100%, it would be annoying to have to tow it home!

is it $50 per run?

[GTO Assassin]

Please bitch. I've driven to that track twice - raced - then driven home. The fact that my car hasn't run much since is unimportant. :p

Scoot

[GTWHOA]

next time I'll run though...just gotta get things 100%, it would be annoying to have to tow it home!

is it $50 per run?

50 for the whole night. From what ive read you get between 4-6 runs depending how busy it is :D

I'm gonna be taking it pretty easy for the first run or two will be happy with a mid 12 and no breakages :s

[MR2]

wow that's good value :) will just watch this time though!

[GTWHOA]

Sweet i'll keep a look out in the stands on the way back around.

[MR2]

What time you planning on turning up?

[GTO Assassin]

Good luck mate. Mid 12's would be great.

Scotty

[MR2]

fkn rained off ;( GTWHOA did not give me a number so we could catch up for coffee anyways. even dragged my girlie out there and all!

anyway she's going to go play with my nuts (http://www.3sgto.org/f20/quest-fit-10-inch-wide-rims-front-3796-15.html#post87747) now :)

[GTWHOA]

Hey wasnt all bad. Got there really early and got 3 runs in :D

[MR2]

OH! how did it go? I got to the gate and they would not let us in...shoulda called me..could have headed somewhere for some burgers or something

[GTWHOA]

My first run ever in any car left a lot to be desired. I managed a staggering 13.582 at 107.61mph 2.373 60ft :s was all wheelspin in first other than that not a bad run. The guy with the hose went nuts all over my lane haha. Raced against some red commy and reeled him in at about half track.

Second run was against the same dude, this time i didnt worry about a good reaction and just concentrated on getting a better launch. Managed a 1.988 60 footer and a 12.681 1/4 at 110mph. Commo got a 14.929.

My third and final run was my best but I still feel i could have improved given more runs and exp. This time against a clean FC rx7. Crept up to the line after trying to avoid the water. Proded the throttle to keep it around 5k bit of minor slipping and of i went about a second after the rx7. Cant really remember what happened between that and when i passed the rx7 at about the 3/4 mark. Managed a 12.473 at 108.45 with a 1.816 60ft. Old mate got 13.995.

[GTWHOA]
