  1. race fuel at the bowser. be a while before I get it up here though
  2. that is a big zinger
  3. how many from cq goin to powercuise. im still undecided as to whether im goin or not yet. what date is it anyway. I am thinkin if I go il go down thurs have fri sat there and drive home sun. il prob neeed a trailer to get my car home if I go anyway.
  4. yeah I realise that but I dont want to go to a full slick with front runners and stuff until I get an auto and 9 inch. car is now my daily driver so I cant really afford to wreck anything. I just think a semi slick is goin to put up more of a fight than the year old maxxis things I got on there now. also my brother is takin his torana down and it has slicks and front runners and I dont want him beating me otherwise il never live it down.
  5. anyone goin to the test and tune this month at benaraby, gunna take the ute to the strip and see if I get sent home or not.
  6. just after some opinons on semi slick tires. taking the ute to the strip this month and dont think my year old tires are goin to be up to the task. can anyone recomend a good semi slick tire that with fit on 17s. dont want to go to a full slick just yet as my box and diff may not hold up.
  7. has anyone had experience with these tires at the drag strip. how do they compare to other street tires.
  8. cheers mate. gunna leave the ute the way it is for the moment. just tidy a few things up and finish a few things off. goin to the strip in a couple of weeks to see what she will run. I think I am gunna get some semi slick tires for the back just gotta find out what I can get. I was gunna run the tires that are on it but judging by the way the dont hook up on the street I think it would be a waste off time.
  9. are they multi impedence?
  10. it is a truckload of fun to get from 0 100 as quick as you can with 500+ rwkw in a manual ute I can assure you.
  11. standard driveline with an npc twin plate solid centre clutch. I have been fairly easy on it so far but I do think it is time to change the diff oil and g/box oil.
  12. yeah we have 80 pound vdo ones in there now but it appears that they are at there limit.
  13. 30 psi. whether that is on E85 or race fuel we have not decided yet. injectors are at there limit now so have to get some different ones. what are injectors you running tray
  14. I think 83TNY will agree with me that mopower can BUILD and TUNE a tuff xr6
  15. yeah I think you were gone but we backed up the 696 from thurs night. if we had of had thurs night temps it would have a gone over 700 I reckon. still can not complain at all about 696 rwhp on pump fuel. good to meet you guys too yous all seem like a top bunch of blokes.
  16. yep 696 again anchor. it was a fair bit warmer though but we had a bit more boost in it. a little disappointed we didnt crack 700 but we still have a lot left in it. E85 tune still to come and I think we should see the magic 800.
  17. yep I have heard cops will be bad this week. hopefully my ute looks stock enough that they wont bother me. cause mine has a sports exhaust lol.
  18. its a manual. its also now my daily driver cause the hilux goes to a better home today ha ha. engine was built by mopower race enigines here in gladstone and has cp pistons howard rods atomic oil pump valve springs and girdle. goes to show you dont have to drive to brisbane or mackay to have a tuf xr6 turbo.
  19. thanks fellas. yeah I am rapt. goin in for another tune this arv and hopin for a bit more tomorrow night.
  20. plazmamann 1000hp kit, 6 boost high mound, t51r turbo, ported head, 60mm wastegate. many $$$$$$
  21. might have to squeese a little more out of the blue ute for sat night hey anchor.
  22. just been to the benaraby dyno comp as part of motor mania here in c.q. turbo ute made 696 rwhp on pump fuel. will have to get someone from prodyno in rocky who ran the comp to maybe post the graph up. only have a copy of it here. fuel was 98 pulp straight from the bowser with no additives. temp was about 10deg. had 17 pound spring in the wastegate. pretty stoked at the moment.
  23. had ute on the dyno today, made 550 rwhp at 16 pound. pretty happy with that, hopefully get a bit more out of it tomorrow. this was on straight 98 pump fuel.
  24. green day, been listening to them since I was 15. each new album gets better and better imo. also pretty big on fnm tool and pink floyd
  25. Green Day at livid in 2000 and bris ent centre last year. both 10 Faith No More at soundwave in bris this year, 15/10. mike patton is the sh*t
