On 25th of June, I will attend the next airport rolling race.

I plan to break the 300 kph / 188 mph on the 1000m / 0.6 ml.

 

In parallel, SRD will start building my VVTi head to the same spec as my current Stage 5 head.

Lee has also my Hypertune intake plenum ready to be installed whilst the heads will be swapped.

 

I want to get my 1000 bhp Supra as streetable as possible ; a 1000 bhp / 800+ ftlbs VVTi engine should be fun.

 

Moving my current 813 ftlbs curve more to the left is the goal.

Sounds great Luc, will you be selling the stage 5 head?

Custom big fuel setup

More boost and new map

Drag wheels and slicks

Get a decent benchmark at the drag strip

Tweak and tune...

 

Hopefully into the 10s . This would be a significant achievement for me considering it's not a shop built car.

Plans over winter, big brakes, polybush everything, move my fuse box (again) and redo battery relocation, some nice seats, have anti-lag and launch mapped in

 

Its already in bits and on its way with the above :)

I'd like to do an R154 conversion if I can afford it this year in preparation for eventual power increase.

 

Other than that, smaller things like body and paint tidy up, refreshing/replacing tatty and rusted components, underbody seal, new wheels.

Strip the powder coating of my cam covers and get them painted instead

Finish off my custom under bonnet air diverter for the uk bonnet vent

Fit a Toyota premium horn kit

Give it a good detail ready for when the nicer weather arrives

Get out to a lot more meets and shows this year and just drive and enjoy it.

You should keep them Andrew, few years they will all go up, I bet most them gone up some already. What have you got again?

 

You're right JP but I'm running out of space. We've just bought a new Motorhome so that's taking up A few useful meters on the drive.

 

Bikes: ZX12R A1, Hayabusa K9, ZX10 B2, RSV-Carbon, GSXR11, TLR1000R, CBR9 (93 edition), Thunderace, Hayabusa RX (Gold), ST1300.

 

The ZX12 and Busa RX will never leave me JP :-)
