Well I just got back from the night races. It was a ok night. However guess what I saw pull up to the gas station!!!! A freaking R33 SKYLINE!!!!!! Sliver with Nismo exhaust, and full nismo setup. I was like WTF!!!!!
(BTW: The skyline is the only car I would take over my R. However I like the R34 rather then the R33) Anyway I talked to the owner who was a total FOB as*hole! He spoke broken engilsh and was full Jap. Anyway I asked him if he dyno'd yet and he said only a smog dyno to clear the car. Anyway one of his friends were being a total punk so my friends dragged me away. Anyway the SVP type R once again raced, however this night was the turing point. He raced a porsche (modded carrera 4) who took him to 4th then the R of course took him. Yet once the R pulled ahead cops came and busted the race. Anyway I thought I would let you in on the scene here.
BTW- I NEVER TAKE MY CAR!!!!!!!! I WOULD BE BUSTED IN A SEC!!!!
On a side note, I'm going tomorow night and I will take pictures this time. You can also go to www.streetracing.org for movies of the races here. (The movies show the SVP R killing M3's (a friends M3), killing Skunk civic's, top of the line NOS'd firebirds, etc....)

The SVP are a bunch of punks. They have no respect for other racers and think they can beat anyone. Anyways, They have a few type R in there crew and one of my friends a few weeks ago went to sac. town raceway on Wens. for test and tune. He saw the type R runing 13.7 or so all motor. Just as fast as the gsr with a 6psi kit. Unless there is a faster type R out there.
-
No the yellow SVP R runs a 12.755. I saw it run that 3 times in a row two weeks ago at Sac. raceway. The SVP R has:
Skunk head
Skunk cams
Skunk computer
Skunk cam gears
clutch
MSD 7al (or6al)
MSD 2 step launch control
RC500cc injectors
Fields SFC (my old one I sold him)
runs just a header for wieght
AEM CAI
Stripped interior (just has the dash and two stock seats)
(runs 4-lug front civic brakes and slicks for extra lightness at the drags)
has a hidden sprayer in the wheel well areas that sprays a sticky compond on the street tires
But yeah the SVP can be jerks at times. I was lucky enought to be friends with Gill (the owner of the R) before the hype. I'm also friends with acouple of other SVP people. They have trully done good work with that R. The whp on the R is around 198-208whp and 131-138trq. They also have a 98 NOS'd R that they are still building up.

I just couldnt stand to drive a stipped down car every day... Granted its hard to argue with timeslips, I just love my leather and stereo http://www.hostboard.com/ubb/smile.gif Did you say that 12.77 was run on an allmotor car? Not bad... make it a little lighter and that thing would really fly.
-
My bad. thats pretty fast. How can type R have 208hp to the wheel that hits 12.7 and a integra with a 8psi blower hitting 230 or so hp and only able to get mid or low 13?
-
If you strip the blown one down and mount slicks on it with a launch control, you will able a to hit that. See its not about power to an extent. As Lawerence from DSR said, "its all about weight and the launch". You should see the supra's at the runs. When they race, they turn up the boost and try to launch. Little do the learn that hooking up is part of the game. You should see my car. In 1st gear I spin to red line if I floor it. Even if I bog it off the line then floor it, my car stil lwont hook up. Heck I can spin 2nd gear to redline if I'm not careful. My point is, this R has no weight. He removed all the critical parts on the car that have weight. He also runs slicks with a MSD 2 step launch controll. Look at Steves Sakei's R. He has around 205whp on his N/A R with Toda stuff and hits a 12.7 also yet he has a full interior with slicks! Thats impressive!!!!

Just got back from the races again tonight. Nothing happened. Only two races between some tegs. Way too many people today, along with tons of cops. Oh well, maybe next week.

I used to go to the street races back in the day when they met up in Berryessa. Since then I guess I've become older and wiser, because I realized how dangerous those activities can be. A friend of mine was seriously injured when a motorcyclist lost control while doing a wheelie sending a 400lb bike into a crowd of people.
Too many stupid high school kids out nowadays.
