RIPSNZ Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 Drag masters is a team event where the jap cars race the V8s. Here's a couple of my runs 1st run off the trailer: and against a blown alky doorslammer: The Jap team won although I had a NOS solinoid give up after we forgot to turn off the NOS bottle blanket and went way over pressure. Damn shame as the 8.22 was with very little boost off the line and the peek boost turned down a bit. I have some good in car footage too, I'll load it up as soon as I work out how to edit the footage on my memory card. Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPSNZ Posted January 12, 2009 Author Share Posted January 12, 2009 Here's the in-car of the 8.22, note: it was very low boost and rpm on the transbrake and very gentle off the line as it was the first run of the day. Should be able to improve on that next time out, Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPSNZ Posted January 18, 2009 Author Share Posted January 18, 2009 Here's some TV footage of the summer Nationals from the weekend before at Taupo: We are going to the 4 and Rota Nationals next weekend where we are going to lean on it a bit harder if the track is good, Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZZZeee Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 Ya' know... if I'd seen this car before I went SBC I may have gone turbo RB30. That is one bada$$ Z. And I LOVE the way it sounds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Straight6Z Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 Has that thing been on a dyno? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPSNZ Posted January 18, 2009 Author Share Posted January 18, 2009 Yeah we lay around 1000-1050whp at 27psi with a 75shot to wake it up. Not that its a big deal, but would everyone agree that we would now have the quickest 240z in the world, not just street, but overall also? 1 Quik Z is a 260 or 280 right? The world record for a RB30 powered car is 7.92 so we'll be gunning for that from now on. Expressions of interest in buying the 240z can be e-mailed to me, we will probably sell it in a couple of months, can be complete or a roller less motor only (all original street gear and original parts included etc) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stony Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 for sure the fastest street trim car. one 1fastz says his is a 260 in the description of his ride. I would say you are the fastest non v-8 powered Z in the world. I am happy as a pig in ♥♥♥♥ to say mine is in the top ten fastest z cars and not a shop car !!!!
