I can drop my wait to 90kg but to keep the supra on the road as a daily driver that could be a problem.

yeah - keep it as a road registered, able to drive to the shops, car - that's what makes it awesome

No point having a 9 second car if it "just another drag car"

A 9, or even 10, second street car is a different story....

What about Hiace's or any other toyota utility vehicle for a diff??? Toyota are good at putting all sorts of compatible gear through-out their model range.....??

What about a 3.2 from a 6speed 2jzgte?

On the topic of the drags this weekend and pbs with cars running out of gearing, the RIPS 240Z may have had its last event and will probably be going for sale. He raised the boost a bit and raised the revlimit to 9700rpm and busted out four 7s runs in a row, the fastest of which being 7.89 @ 176mph -- on the limiter on all of those runs!

that would be a shame, maybe they feel it hasnt got any more potential left in it. hasnt been competing for long either.

by **rollaholic** » Mon Mar 16, 2009 6:41 pm

if it was on the limiter surely theres potential right there.

Maybe not such a good idea

Definately will be good to see another 9sec toyota!

You know what I meant.

I think its largely safety reasons, it is getting very loose in the deep end now.

Well went to the last friday night drags to find out that my turbo was sick so did not race, i was going to wait till the winter to do a turbo upgrade but have done it now lol well we have gone from a t72 Q trim to a t76 Q trim should give us abit more power and reliable as for the t72 that as been pushed to its limits for the past 2 years which was bloody good.

by **BlakeNZ** » Tue Mar 24, 2009 9:23 pm

so what events have you got left to run the 9 sec? this sunday is a comp meet i think, and then april 12th outlaw drags maybe? no more meets after that is there? (winter drags seldom count-you never set personal bests on cold tracks)

by **Lith** » Sun Mar 29, 2009 4:54 pm

Sounds like the track wasn't too bad, I know of a couple of PBs but haven't heard how audiman went - fingers crossed.

by **audi man** » Sun Mar 29, 2009 6:06 pm
