[cplagz]

Sounds good! Any more pics/build info?

[S133LTR]

Cant wait for a chance to see this car run some passes.

Has it run at the MP yet?

[iluv2moan]

supprising to see an ems running it

cars been along project. still usiung the BW turbo?

[sky_high_psi]

Wow looks like you got some serious gear in that thing...
how much power is it making? estimated 1/4 mile times?

[datsqik]

I'll post some specs up later, makes around 1200hp without the gas and still uses a bw turbo. Hasnt run any passes yet so we will just take it a step at a time and see where we are at and go from there. We have plans to take the engine package further but we'll just have to see how things go.

[180SXTCY]

good work smiley.. :) cant wait to see this thing on full song!

[cplagz]

what BW ? S4xx or S5xx? you buy local or intl?

[datsqik]

SX80 with a 1.1 T4 rear, this will be upgraded later to something like a EZ-94 billet. I usually get these from Jose at forcedinductions.

light tune then? :D

So nice.

[TJ]

Quickest GTR in Perth atm is a 10.26...

Surely this is looking to jump that by at least 1.5 seconds if it all works right?

Awesome spec sheet smiley.

[duste]

Looks like it'd make a good daily


Post up a time/date when you're planning to take it to the plex, would be good to see how it goes.

[KPWISHN]

Flash azz. Great to see such a machine being built in WA. Look forward to seeing it down the track. Will be hard to miss. I bet it sounds mental.

[beefcake]

wow, thats a nice spec sheet, good to see some more units like this hitting the track:)

[thrtytwo]

damn thats insane, all that power right as u launch haha
would love to see this thing run

[schnoods]

Man, i look forward to when the drag season starts up, this thing is going to be nuts!

What sort of aims/times are you looking at. Looking at a few records too?

[lambchops]

My mates dad is good mates with Tim at Sik Em Wrex racing and video called my mate when it was in the workshop a couple of saturdays ago. Sound mental!
What record you going for?

[OptiC]

Good to see it all up and running Smiley!
This this is going to be amazing to see down the 1/4, can't wait for the start of the drag season to see it out there.

Sooooo now she's pretty much a goer, you going to start focusing on getting the old dato back out there?

[I <3 Judd 0kw]

:3some: :3some: :3some:

[OLSKOOL1800]

Fucking Awesome Mate!
I got the PM today and then saw your post.
Cheers for the video.

When its all sorted and you are happy with it, I will shoot the car for PSC and for BOOST over a couple of days.

I will remind the editor of BOOST what the go is and I will send him the tech sheet.

Can't wait to see this thing in real life and more importantly, out on the track!

Cheers,
Jordan

[RICEY]

Looks mental keen to see it in action :D

[big o]

looks unreal mate.

But why the auto.

[Brockas]

Serious congrats for mating an auto box to a AWD setup like this.


Awesome engineering, and equally impressive presentation.

[180SXTCY]

looks unreal mate.

But why the auto.

such a big turbo? stall needed to get it online? or is there any manuals that can hold this kinda power?

id dare say the auto prob be faster over the 1/4 anyway..?

[DCIEVE]

its a nissan awd box afaik^^

awesome build ! any reasoning on why you haven't gone dry sump or even external oil pump - or is the accusump large enough to keep the motor alive if the oil pump shits at the start of a run?

[kurbn]

Amazing car, big respect on the hard work that has been put in, looks like alot of it!

any idea how much torque this things got on full song?

[datsqik]

My mates dad is good mates with Tim at Sik Em Wrex racing and video called my mate when it was in the workshop a couple of saturdays ago. Sound mental!
What record you going for?
Your mates dad must own that wild supercharged ford coupe thing like a 36 or something.

[datsqik]

looks unreal mate.

But why the auto.
Basically the car had ppg box in it with around 600rwhp that proved very unreliable as far as getting gears all the time which isnt much good for drag racing. If you cant get all gears 10 out of 10 passes its not worth persisting with. The next step was to go for a hollinger or a liberty or something along that line but the budget didnt really allow for that so we decided to try and develop a suitable auto. We may have to replace some of the shafts with vasco shafts but basically the size of the shafts and clutches indicate that it has the potential to put up with a fair wack of power.

[Tocchi]

fuckkk yehhh!!!

what class you going to run in?

[VT SS]

Nissan GTR Skyline Drag Car ( Super Sedan class DYO handicap or Sports Modified Class where the index is 7.75 sec)

looks like a real weapon dude :)

[heller44]

I remember seeing this back when it was grey.. had a look at it last time down that way like this, it was a shock.. definately want to see it do a run.

[Tones]

Great to see someone else taking it to the east coasters.
Best of luck getting the most out of the combo. Should be an animal. Seen a couple of GTR's running at Jambo, and they are out of control. 4 wheel black tracking the whole way.
And people think I'm mad for running my car

[monga]

Awesome work from the Mandurah boys, even better seeing this develop from a street monster to a drag machine.

[AGIT8D]

+1.

Crazy build up Smiley, keep the updates rolling in with the ramp up to it's black top debut!!

[JME]

Congrats on the effort.

[GTRgav]

I so much want to have a close look at this in the flesh!

[Turbo2.6L]

Mint!
Will it be ready for the first round next season?

[Dirty32]

Absolute Monsta!!

[Atomic_FD]

Thats berzerk!

[lambchops]

Your mates dad must own that wild supercharged ford coupe thing like a 36 or something.


Yeah thats it mate. Its a 34 ford coupe

[Alt_F4]

Awesome, looks like it'll rip everyone on the strip a new one :D

My fav combo too, 26/30 in a 32R... best of luck for sticking it to the other big GTRs here and abroad.

[Tones]

doubt any local GTR will come close. Will do good in super sedan with the auto. Should make for consistent times. Altho black tracking and pedaling will not help. I think you guys will have your hands full :P

[Alt_F4]

doubt any local GTR will come close.
Godzilla Motorsport in QLD has done 7.83 @ 179mph, and 8.69 @ 158mph on 'street tyres' in their 32R.
Good enough competition :D

[beefcake]

local ;)

[Alt_F4]

local ;)
Semantics, I never said local, I said here (and abroad) as in Australia (and international).
Anyway useless argument by me :lol:, this beast will chop all :D

[Tones]

local = PERTH:slap:

and considering that the World record time for a GTR is 7.59@190mph, even any car in Aus has a lot of chasing to do.

[yeahlow34]

Yeah thats it mate. Its a 34 ford coupe

Not an orange one by any chance?

Wow such an impressive car. The paint scheme is out there, but suits the stage the car is at haha. This thing is going to be insane to watch! Veyr much look forward to seeing it on the strip.

Wouldn't mind seeing that datto out there mind you!

[180SXTCY]

ive known smiley for a while now and not much progress has been had on the datto :( due to him always being so buzy with other peoples stuff... but from what he's told me bout the dat and what he had planed for it..its going to be a weapon also :D

[datsqik]

We will probably just do a season in super sedan sorting it out while dave gets a handle on driving it. Ive started building another motor with a lot more engine developement and a bigger turbo but how far we take this will ultimately depend on support from sponsors. We would love to be able to run super stock and run under the current index.

[datsqik]

Mint!
Will it be ready for the first round next season?

I definately hope so, just need to do wheel alignments etc and play with getting it on the transbrake quickly. We were considering taking it to qld for the jamboree but didnt want to go all that way with a car that hasnt been down the track. But next year is def on the cards.

[datsqik]

its a nissan awd box afaik^^

awesome build ! any reasoning on why you haven't gone dry sump or even external oil pump - or is the accusump large enough to keep the motor alive if the oil pump shits at the start of a run?

Originally we werent planning to go so far with the car but if we did it again we probably would have gone for a dry sump setup. The engine has a large sump with good baffles but if it does decide to suck air off the start line the accusump holds over 3L and pumps if the pressure drops below 35psi. You can also use the accusump to pump the oil pressure up to 90psi before you hit the start button. We have a high volume vaccum pump on the engine which has the same effect as a multi stage external pump by creating a vaccum inside the motor reducing blow by effects by keeping the rings sucked against the walls of the cylinder.

[1JZVL]

that idle sounds cool :) can't wait to get to the plex and hear this thing once it's ready

and auto all the way ;)

[Passage GT]

did you end up using the vq auto by any chance?
i'll get around to calling you for 'payment' one day (if you remember me that is haha)

[Gladio]

That thing makes me droollll... Love it, cant wait to see it at the drags

[im late]

THAT IS INSANE!!!!!

Show the boys over east (and the world) what us perth boys can achieve!!

Awesome setup.. pure porn..

[nismo180sx]

Awesome build!

[datsqik]

Here is a video clip of some initial dyno runs during tuning on day 1. Kept breaking the wire off that was holding the exhaust on. Shame I didnt have a camera with me the second day when we did some high boost runs.

[S133LTR]

That is unreal..
8700?!

[datsqik]

9250 limiter

[S133LTR]

My hat goes off to that sort of commitment from private guys.

[beefcake]

good stuff, talk about givin it some fuel, go the 9.0 a/f , would you say safe as houses :)

[datsqik]

I like to tune methanol using a gasoline scale because thats where my heads at. Dont want to be running conversions thru my head whilst im tuning. As you know methanol has a large window in which it works safely and during initial tuning I like to start on the rich side and with this setup it likes it rich. Some setups you can end up around 10 safely because thats where a particilar engine likes it and makes the most power. This engines makes its power on the rich side. The egt's seemed to be happy around there aswell.

[Brockas]

Awesome!

Any preliminary power figures yet?

[datsqik]

Some figures on page 1 in the specs.

[SIK RX3]

awesome, can't wait to see you guys down at the track....

[exXU1]

Gents,
had a semi successful day yesterday. I did a 1.3 60' and 116 mile an hour at half track . Backed off here as i wanted to feel what the shoot felt like - not a drama, pulled the ass around a little. Rolled through to do 9.8.
Wanted to go do a few harder full track passes but the Radiator decided to spring a leak. Packed her and went home .
Felt good, left straight.

She'l be down at Mandurah at the car show this Saturday 5 Dec if any one wants to have a gander.

[Stef]

Rolled thru for a 9.8, insane!

Should be interesting this season!

[Marti]

mind boggeling amount off work gone into this car. Awsome work smiley XD

[exXU1]

Yeh your right , so many hours at night,weekends just like we all do . One must be a little odd or have a few screws loose to persist with this type project, gotta take ya time.

It would be very hard to get right with out the input from guys like Smiley as there knowledge is second to none.The manual aspect of prepping and presenting the car is not that hard but it dose take time to do properly and
that i can do, but the tolerances and the application of correct mechanical ingenuity and correct combinations is in the "Smiley " league. He can tune too!!!

Had a chat to Woodsy yesterday while he was down at Metalcraft getting his tank fixed on the drag bike. Said he lended you guys a hand with folding up the chute, good to see all the local boys helping each other out. Looking forward to inspecting this rig closely tomorrow!

[datsqik]

Dave gave clint an instruction book on folding chutes and says here your a school teacher read that and fold the chute.

[AGIT8D]

Hahahahaha! As long as it works down the other end of the strip it's all okay I suppose ;)

[SQUIDO]

awww this must of been what i spotted a while back on a trailer heading through mandurah...awsome peice of machinery here

[exXU1]

Dave gave clint an instruction book on folding chutes and says here your a school teacher read that and fold the chute.

A bit cheeky of me i suppose :shake:

[AGIT8D]

Good to have a talk to ya today Dave, the car is absolutely amazing, so clean and built well to achieve it's goal. Top job!

[exXU1]

Bugger it - you did'nt identify yourself - i wanted to meet you but i met so many people - which one where you , Please don't say the guy with two arms s, legs and a head! LOL:boink:

[AGIT8D]

Haha na I was talking to you pretty early on in the day, about how clean the car is, and you were talking about how you had to try and tidy up some of the wiring inside the car but all of it got used regularly so you couldn't do much about it. I'm not really one of those "Hi I'm AGIT8D" types lol.

Have you ordered the new radiator yet? Keen to see this tear up at the plex. What's your plans for the old radiator?

[ACTIV8]

didnt u shave agit8d into ur head at one motorvation??

[exXU1]

Cool - ya got red hair or what?.

Clint "Monga" has got his grubby little philanges on the radiator all ready.New one arrived today via Timbo at Sikem , nice brand spanka from PWR.

[AGIT8D]
