Re: BMS Bullet V8
Tom, just wondering if you still have the jigs and drawings for your bellhousing /scattershield? I am looking to do a similar driveline mating a T56 trans to a 1UZ. Would save me a heap of heartache

Re: New Guy questions
Thanks guys, I have taken at least some of your advice, and found a soarer pretty cheap so this is what I am starting with image.jpg Not sure of the exact course it is going to take yet, need to do a lot more research, and get out and mix with you guys a bit. First job is to get it home and drive it...

Re: New Guy questions
Cheers guys, been doing a bit of research and a soarer may well be a good place to start. The wheelbase is closer to a Commodore than I though, about 30mm less in fact, and 130mm less than my ute, so I definitely have some food for thought. Gonna have another read of the rules, now I have some more ...

Re: New Guy questions
Cheers Pete, not a silly suggestion at all. Just wondering if a soarer sized car would make a good salt car. I assume a longer wheelbase is beneficial. I guess I am trying to find out if wheelbase is key? A soarer is a half reasonable car on the quarter, and lots of short cars do well, but is it the...

Re: New Guy questions
A few people have mentioned " the right shape for the salt", I was thinking of using something like a commodore ute, coz they are cheap and plentiful. Whilst I concede they are not the most aerodynamic car available, it would be cheap and relatively straightforward to build. Will the shape...

Re: New Guy questions
Thanks Chris, I read most of the rule book last night so that answered a few of my initial questions about classes. I was thinking of getting a Holden sedan and converting to run on salt (as per your not rare or expensive body) was just a bit dubious about running towards 300 kph in something design...

New Guy questions
G'day, awesome forum. Stumbled in here a bit by accident, was looking for a platform to see how fast I could get a turbo 4litre toyota v8 to go. I am a bit of a car guy having drag raced Holden's and offroad raced toyotas, sort of keen to see if I could build a decent speed out on the salt Most of t...
