Well i've had my JZZ30 since January and have been an avid fan of this site since December, when i started looking for a soarer, so its about time I said hello. I dropped in to have a look at the last Brisbane dyno day and can't wait for the next one so I can have a go. I've already been to willowbank, ran a 14.6, and am getting a SAFC II soon and either dumps or a full exhaust. Hopefully that will put me into low 14sec territory.

Marcus!!!

Work on your launch technique mate. Your stock TT should do low 14s already. Mine is fully stock, when I took it out for a drag, my first pass was around 14.7, after a bit of practice and (more importantly) tips from people that actually know how to do it, I managed to run 14.43 (I guess this can be called low 14s). I can still do better than this, the place closed right after my best pass, and it was getting lower and lower with each run. You need to get the launch right that's all... mods will definately improve your times though. Good luck!

EDIT: Nice Soarer you got there by the way

Hi Daniel I thought it might go quicker and did improve from 14.85 to 14.66 over 4 passes by raising the stall speed. I was running my 19's so did'nt want to fry them off the line. Will hopefully get some 16's for the next trip out to willowbank. Jeez it's easy to spend money on this car!
