please advise me whether that was a clear win by the t-sport or did the clio get some legs late in the piece.

It looked like the T-Sport went ahead and then the Clio came up at the end. I think that the Clio kinda won cos the video is from a Clio website.

The clio gets the Stivo off the mark and pulls away slowly until we hit lift but it is rare that we will catch up, the only race we would stand a chance against it in would be like a 0 - 200 race or something, my Ex had one and the only way I could beat her would be for me to get a perfect take off and changes and her to make a few minor mistakes. They are light as all crap and they have a snot load of torque.

There's a clio getting around Adelaide with a plate starting with RCT...

Yep, it's a Renault Clio Turbo, and I saw it hose off an R33 Skyline.

Its interesting... he doesn't seem to nail his gear changes all that well... . then right at the end you can see the stivo starting to pull him back in again.

His very last gear change when the clio pulls him in and overtakes sounds like he messed it up a bit.... but maybe its just my ears.

I thought it sounded like he backed off, like he was sure of his win and the Clio kept gunning it so he gunned it again. At rolling starts the Stivo does VERY well against many cars, our main downfall is waiting for lift to kick in.

I watched that clip over and over again and i would say for sure it was down to the gear ratios. The Stivo started in 3rd changed to 4th before 160km/h and pulled away because the Clio's 4th gear ratio is longer, then the Stivo changed into 5th and revs dropped while the Clio was still in 4th and reeling in. That was what happened and the guy in the Stivo never backed off. Also another point to note is the slipstream where the car behind can gain easily on the car in front at certain speeds like 200km/h.

yeah i watched it over and over again.. and the stivo is just about to over take him at the end. So there u go..

and with the slipstream arent u meant to be behind the other car for it to work? not to the side of him... As the slipstream doesnt expand so far out to the sides.

Theres no way we would have lost in rolling start, his gear shifts sucked a$$ and he didnt stay in lift. Stivo would have kept on pulling.

Also Imek... WHAT THE HELL IS THAT SITE

That's not a drag race - if you want a 2mb wmv file of the most outrageous drag race ever, then I need either someone to host the file or your email address...

      1999 Camry Driver's door locking hatch issue

      It's possible that it could be something fouling or dirt build up, dry, or a broken mechanism, so have a look and give the mechanism some lubrication, most likely though, it'll be the actuator. I found one for a good price on Ebay, $25 delivered: Front Door Lock Actuator Right Side For Toyota Camry 1997-2001 | eBay

      Query about the correct rotors for 2006 ACV40 Camry.

      Hi, I'm looking at a set of front rotors for an ACV40 2006, 2.4L Camry. I got a good price on some RDA's at Sparesbox. However both RDA8112 and RDA7686 show as for my car and I'm wondering what the difference is and if there were changes to the rotors during the model production. So does anyone know which rotor is the correct one? Many thanks in advance.

      It's a simple solution though? Already laying down 60k for a RAV4, so what's another 1k on a phone to make everything work seamlessly? 👍

      Your solution is akin to suggesting that switching to a different car manufacturer would resolve the issue. However, not everyone shares the same enthusiasm for using an iPhone as you do.

      Turboed Corolla Overbuilt?

      that engine will be fine, the rods are the main thing to be concerned about. The 2860 is a decent turbo for the 1zz but in this day and age I'd go for a G25-550. The injectors might be on the small side, we run DW1000's. You need a full length injector, the shorter injectors with adaptors like ID1050x dont fit the 1zz head. You don't need an aftermarket intake manifold, if you do go down that path, avoid the CNC innovations unit, it's garbage. Do the boost control with a MAC valve and control it with the aftermarket ECU of your choice, I use Link stuff on most of my builds with the G4x Storm as the minimum. I also wire a fuel pressure sensor and oil pressure sensor to the ECU in my installs. Use a decent intercooler, the better cores (ARE, PWR, Garrett, Vibrant, Plazmaman, Hypertune) work a lot better than the chinese stuff like Aeroflow. a 450x250-300 fits fairly well with custom end tanks to route the cooler pipes through next to the radiator Don't forget about the clutch and gearbox. These days I like the Uniclutch twinplate, Above 300whp you'll want to think about upgrading the 3rd and 4th gears in the box also with the SSC (Hollinger) gear set and install an LSD of your choice. If you're going to give it a hard time, you'll also want an oil cooler. I like the HKS thermostat type sandwich plates and setrab or mocal oil coolers with -10 speedflow fittings/lines (Chinese AN fittings neck down to a lot smaller internal diameter in their bends, not great for flow) You'll also want to think about brakes, Celica or Sportivo front calipers will bolt on with sportivo discs as a starting point. To have somewhere like Tunehouse do the work you'll want to budget somewhere between 20-40K

      Camry Touring 2010 Fuel consumption 15.2L/100km. Normal?

      I did the mathematics myself regarding costs vs benefits for fuel injector cleaner. I have changed from 91ULP to 95PULP and 98PULP. Price difference can be about 13 -20 cents. Compared to 91ULP, Premium quality fuel should have a better quality additive package designed to have superior engine cleaning capabilities so the engine can perform at their best.

      "Fuel injector cleaner is a waste of money" Only if you by the cheap crap if you use LiquMolly a German Product it does work and you won't waste your Money.
