  5. the car is coming along nicely harry...awesome!!
  6. haha yeah danny...because i was racing against a long time rival and i had a total of three runs...i had to change rod bearings after each run and all in under 20 minutes each time...also because the bearing was fragile due to damage sustained earlier on before the race..i had to run less boost..i could only rev to 7500..no anti lag...no launch control. so the road to victory was not at all easy..thats why i was so happy if anyone wants to know why we needed to change bearings..just scroll up a couple of posts and you will see how one rod was damaged earlier on before the race.
  7. did a bit of racing this weekend. now before anyone asks what it did..i must mention that official drag racing is very recent in our country. only in the last two years it has come under a governing body and become official. unfortunately we do not have proper timing equipment yet. currently they use timing equipment used in circuit/track racing. so i dont consider it to be accurate hence why i wont talk about times etc. they say they hope to have something sorted as soon as they can..but hey..everyone had island mentality here haha hope you like the way the car looks now..
  8. ok..so finally got the car weighed and suspension tuned for new Hoosier DOT radials i will be using...can anyone guess how skinny she is?? weight taken with no driver or fuel... there is not much more i can take off the car without really getting in cutting and modding the chasis...even then the weight will more or less still stay the same even with tube frame (maybe a bit more actually).
  9. hey guys..so today was spent attending to some weight reduction and aerodynamic imrovements.. first off the rear spare wheel was cut out and any metal from the surrounding that was non essential took a hike too...more pics on this tomorrow as my phones dead. also covered up the front air dams on the toms bumper and fabricated a new alloy (sprayed black) rear spoiler....sorry about the bad pics..it was very late when we managed to finish off all this work and didnt really have good lighting for decent pics.. more pics on the wheel well tomorrow. rear bumper will also
  10. ok guys...have a bit of an update..good news and bad... bad news first... its been a hectic 4 days for us...everything was in check and we headed to the dyno...got most of the mapping done and towards the end whilst trying to do some power runs we hit the limited twice because from 6500rpm onwards the car revs to shift point in a split second and there's not much time to get off throttle...on top of that the car would wheelspin badly on the dyno (4th gear)...unfortunately hitting the limiter caused some damage to the cylinder number one rod bearing...had to cut the dyno session short a
  11. a far as durability goes, i feel its a good box and race proven. would recommend it to anyone..but..its meant for race..not for daily driving! no special maintenance required. for warranty info your best off speaking to keith mate.
  12. feels good man...will take some getting used to if you have never tried out a dog box before. you'll love it..

  14. new dog box ready to go back in... also managed to pick up some roll bar mounts for my go-pro.. managed to get everything fitted and test drive..man that gear box is so raw and awesome...did a slow drive to test it out...the road just suddenly went to shite with potholes...so i headed back. will try to upload it later...
  15. got the gearbox apart and the dog-mission dry fitted (pretty much)... its 5.30am now...managed to get a 4hrs of sleep...gotta head back with the new CV's and shaft bearing to complete the re-assembly...i foresee another long day ahead of me.... sooo tired lol
