God that was quick Anna! Good work!

So, I forgot to follow up on this and update everyone, at 6000 RPM and on 1bar of boost, with an afr of about 11:1, the car is using 70% of injector duty cycle on 880 cc injectors. There is no way I can even move to E85 at the moment with my current setup, and 1000cc wouldn't cut it either... Using the old 1cc of injector = 1hp I'd be making around 600hp at the fly... Or around 450 HP at the wheels, or about 330 rwkw...

I still want it as per our PMs! You just need to remember to bring it somewhere I am!

Gun powder, once fired won't give off any "bang"

I'd love to have a beer with Duncan...

I think in total we had around 6 or 7 of us take a nice scenic cruise up the mountains, and a casual stroll around Catalina... I was actually talking to my step father after coming back from this trip... He used to "race" around it... Marko, I don't believe I saw a single camera all day.

And E85 is cheaper then regular ULP when you buy it at the pump... Runs cooler... You only have to worry about keeping one tank topped up... No extra weight... Remember, WMI also increases your compression again... So if you go super high CR, you're at risk of bending shit.

I knew "Shell" was an alias!

Seconded!

if you're still looking at running E85 this will be a null point as so many people can dial in timing past the max timing for power mark...

That's because it's detecting things such as C4...

There's slot more to the reliability of these then what you think...

Turns out the motor was even worse then I thought! Hence the price. And Titan, what machinist? I don't have a machinist, and I don't machine it on my own either. Let me see what these other 2 RB30s are like when I strip them down, and see if I have anything to offer. Edit: Steveo, thanks for the advice... Will have to remember that in future, it had a 1250KG pressure plate in it too...

From the call I just got... There's is supposedly "shavings" of metal through the motor... Lulz

EPIC THREAD KILLRAR!

You should be able to get the suspension sorted out and then just drive the thing harder right? I reckon there could quite possibly be alot more in the current setup.

It was my original 30 block, it went rattle rattle rattle... Quite loudly!!! Could be easily heard 100 metres off... Lol told 'drew he could have it if he wanted to take it in as is cons as I was unsure of crank condition

I got to this post and stopped reading, so if someone said this below, good on em! The leaner an air fuel mixture, the hotter it burns. The hotter it gets the more the gas expands, the more the gas expands the higher the pressure. Pressure is a force over a certain area, the area is staying constant, hence force increases. Torque on the crank is equal to the force on the piston (with some funky angular changes) multiplied by the distance from where the conrod joins the crank, and the middle of the crank. There is a point though where there isn't enough fuel being put in to burn properly, or burn enough to make enough alternate gases. Remember, Pressure, volume and temperature are all related. Hence, leaning it out, more pressure, more force, more torque. Power = Torque * RPM... Hence, more power. As mentioned though, leaning out increases temperatures to a point that certain vital components are not adequately cooled, and hence, melt.

Andrew, they were meant to be ceramic coated pistons, for an NA RB30E.

He owns a 33?

It went in with two of us as well... Poor car sunk in the ass "just a bit" lol good to see you two got it out. As for crazy fun, try standing a trailer on end. One personpushes motor against trailer while the other pulls the drawbar back down... Voilà loaded engine!

$4.00 Rich man!

I used to be with it, but then they changed what "it" was. Now, what I'm with isn't it, and what's "it" seems weird and scary to me.

I have more experience breaking and fixing though... Lol

Why be scared of calling shell? She sleeps through then calls back. oh and shouldn't the whole commitee have member info access? Maybe you guys need some help in IT...
