If my new tyres grip well at 30-32psi would you recommend upping the pressures? |
You should drop down to 18-20psi on the new ones. What you want is side wall flex to help grip. Now the issue is these nankangs don't have a great deal of flex but it really does help dropping low.

Are Newage brakes a good upgrade for a classic? As you know my stripped Newage weighs the same as a classic. ...and by that classic remark I take it you've had it on a weighbridge now then?? Post a pic of the weight then :p |

i go and watch at santa pod quite often on rwyb days as its local to me.
most standard wrxs run in the 14's and standard stis in the 13's. you need over 400 bhp to get into the 12's in an impreza. [2013]

It tells you that it was due to the variables like driver, track conditions,tyres,reaction times etc.
Basically the only way to get a true comparision is remove all the variables,the. Reason drag racing is a sport is due to the variables. If it was possible to remove them the same car would win every time and the sport wouldnt exist. I ran 12.8 with 256 bhp and a passenger so I may take up drag racing ;) I believe the bit about tools in the car though. Anyway, just missed out on a trophy! :cry: Attachment 33533 |

I suppose you could say that I backed my 12.5 on the day up. :p On average, how many runs do you get at Melbourne these days? 4 or 5? |

Days runs.
Might be of interest to someone that; the 0-60ft of 2.26 got me a 0-60mph of 5.2 secs the 0-60ft of 1.79 got me a 0-60mph of 3.8 secs Attachment 33532 What's Dialin? |
Not sure what Dialin is, I think it's the time you take to stage. Breaking the 1st beam to the second.
So you got 5 runs? That's why Melbourne is shit. I've got time slips for 18 runs when I did my 12.4s. I could have done loads more had I wanted too, but, I let my car cool down a bit through out the day. |
Your wrx isn't standard matt you basically put all sti bits on it.
My sti was all stock and had a passenger. Just proves how superior the STi Is. |
The Sti is the far superior car I think that's a given the wrx is a poor mans Sti I think that's fairly common knowledge too
|
Wheres the updates at. Its been 19 days from the last update. You've surely done a 10second run by now...

when it came to taking it on the track he failed quite badly. so after numerous pages we have found out the wrx is still slow and to go fast you need an sti. as he was told on page 1 :lol1: |

Though I don't claim mine can / does or ever will run a 10sec. Though at least I've done it right and fitted a 6speed / brembos etc :P |
Lol, sorry guys, I've been making the car handle and brake better without using parts that'll darken street lights.
I've promised myself one more mod for acceleration but I'm not yet decided as to what. |
