i did 62 in a 50 zone n lost my license for it (p's)
i consider it lucky tho the amount of times i have been racing or excessive speeding, i always say " i always make sure its safe" but really wat is safe?
anyone else ever been the the illegal street races in sydney i been to a few, now they are crazy 454's in comaro's n #### i reckon of the 80 cars that went atleast 30 wernt street rego'd or engineerable i seen a motor hang out of the bonnet a good 600mm..
now these are not safe.. defineatly
i encourage legal drag racing but most of the ppl i no only race on streets coz they dont no how to get to the raceways n the stuf they have to go thru to race them...
in 2.25 months when i get my license bak i wil have my $10k and will be looking again for a ca18det 1200 ute.. and then i will say i have raced at a propper drag..

sum1 advertised 2 subrubs away a ca18det datsun 1200 ute for $10k un engineered 11 months rego trx diff from bluebird i think it was r31or 30 front discs rebuilt fornt end (forgot wat from) 200sx front mount
sounded interesting i think i will drive/buy a ca18det datto ute b4 i go and do the v6 conversion coz if the hype about the ca18 turbo's is ok i will keep it and not worry about the v6...
but still the VG30 would be gr8 and a rarety lol im not worried about handling since when does anyone race round corners on street roads? i will go the runs but never race corners on the street, tricked out suspension should sit the car ok with traction but i will see in time

atm i am going there just gotta get a ride in there (since i lost my license)

ok still thinking and evaluating, wat 1/4 times would i be able to achieve with a ca18det front mount on stock boost?
there has been a few ca18 1200's for sale round here at about $10k maybe this is an alternative??
my aim is for 13's i have $25k to spend on it would the ca18det already put in for $10k be more worht my while in achieving these sorts of times...

i had very simlar porblem
cep it was my dizzy i just cleaned it out( as i used it as my engine imobiliser pulling out the coil to dizzy wire when in shopping centres) n that fixed mine maybe check ur dizzy???

soz wrong post

true but my scanner will tell me wat they do and dont know.. if they say it on air that is

im 17 from sydney
did 62 in a 50 zone on last day of double demerits down a hill.
the cop wasnt even behind me he was 2 cars back and was speeding wit me and the car behind me, i turned off and he let the other car go and fined me( i think just coz im on my p's) how about that the cop didnt even have line of sight and i got booked for doin 12 over i lose my license...
pretty f*cked if u ask me, im the only one in peak hour not speeding too and i get harrassed everyday for it. tough life
ohh well if all goes well with this ute iwant i can always outrun the cops ;) hahahahaha
Question: with the ca18det do i need to widen the gearbox tunned, any major problems with the g/box and tunnel?

talked to an engineer on saturday( a friend of a friends)
asked him if he would engineer these engines for me:
sr20det
vg30de
ca18det
vn 3.8 v6
would engineer them all but told me to come back to talk more about suspension and chassis mods etc. when i have the car and the $$$ to build it
also said i am looking at $15-20k for it

then y is there 12a turbo's in 1200 utes and the vg30 in that one?????
answer that one and ill stop asking the Q;s about it
