  1. Not sure on the above. They built mine for me. You will need to speak with Simon or Dave on Monday but I'm sure they can sort something out. Possum may be able to answer some of your questions if he is still awake. They have done a heap of analysis on mine taking it out a heap of times to check oil and stress on components. Real world testing on road and track.
  2. Nizpro built motor and ZF. These guys looks like they have truly nailed the ZF build side. Mine is awesome.

    Get off your phone in the cinema:)
  4. Fn classic.
  5. He can explain.
  6. You poor bugger Blake. Long day for you.
  7. It was a nice day but not for me. Split a hose or pipe or something. Simple fix, but obviously no spares. Damn it. Calder love taking my money. Only got one practice run in working on 60 foot. Did a 1.58 60 foot. Hit limiter in top of second then just lazily rolled through no throttle from just before half track. 11.8@80mph. Maybe go down in 2 weeks on a Fri night.
  8. Thanks. Nizpro ordered the GTX for me at a pretty reasonable price.
  9. Thanks Christian. How's your beast going?
  10. Yeah I heard he is a legend in his own lunchtime
  11. *Beep*? Who's he?
  12. Yeah:) lucky I was in the slow left lane.
  13. Thinking about going. May be a bit warm. I'll keep you posted if I go. Not a big fan of Calder atm after last cancellation, price increase and the fact they kick you off when running 10's. Heathcote is way more laid back. Great friendly country atmosphere.
  14. Sure am. United 1 min drive from where I live. Winning.
  15. Good question. Buggers at Nizpro won't tell me their secret. I did get the engine built by Nizpro, but that does not really get you any more power. Tweak here and there by Simon and a fn good tune. Dave is an awesome tuner. He never gives up making it better. It's impressive power for a relatively little turbo. It's got really strong midrange.
  16. Thanks. It's around the 500rwkw mark. Dyno was slipping so had to run it in 5th gear. Yeah runs on pump E85.
  17. Started at 15 and orked my way down to 10 then ended up on 18. Tried them all.
  18. 3 grand stall with handbrake gave me a heap of wheelspin so ended up going with no handbrake and 2500 launch. Got off line better but wheelspin into 2nd gear. Had trouble hooking up all day. Maybe a new set of MT's. Mine were not at wear indicators and people tell me they are grippier when used so not sure.
  19. Thanks guys. With a better set up it hopefully will see a 9. It was a last minute decision to run so I wasn't that well prepared. Ran it as I run it on the road. Overall very happy with it. Now to work on my 60 foots.
  20. Thanks you for your help Blake. Awesome top end on that thing. Never dropped under 140mph even in the heat and after repeated runs. Cooler is doing its job well. Yep MT's in the boot and even used my sh*tty FG jack to change one at a time.
  21. Cheers Matt.
  22. Hi guys. Took the long drive to Heathcote today. Managed a PB of [email protected]. My 60 foot was crap all day. 1.72 60 foot:(.Had trouble with traction sometimes first 3 gears but always first 2 gears. She has definitely got a 9 in her. It was quite hot out there today and ran in the left lane every time for those that think the right lane gives a higher mph. I enjoyed passing the 11sec cars on trailers on the way back to Melb with my satnav, aircon on and my kid in the car. Thanks to Simon,Dave and Blake at Nizpro for all their hard work and support. Car and gearbox felt stong all day.
