M1N3S

So far its a no but he insists it will give him alot of response and torque... he likes to show off by putting his foot down and watching our heads snap back into the headrest..... his words not mine LOL.

A friend of mine would like to know if he can use a 1996 WRX STI turbo on his RB30DET?

The timing of this is impeccable, i just watched ignition dvd 28 and guess who was in it LOL..... i will definately have a chat to tuners in australia and see what is on offer.

Setup is going to be done by someone in australia but i mean R&D wise for everything else.. mines package is tough to beat, no-one here has given me any facts yet.... if australia is so good at competetion circuit cars why hasnt anyone showed me what they can do??? Who, ive never heard of him/her/it .... links?

I dont mind if he hasnt owned, driven or raced a mines engine.... i just want some data to compare what racepace or crd have.

If you read my posts carefully i am buying the entire mines catalog including suspension... RB26 and turbos and pretty much everything im buying is universal so even if i buy all the parts overseas, labour in australia will be indentical doesnt matter which part i use. I know these are your opinions but show me facts that CRD and Racepace can make my GT-R comparable to the Mines for the same price or less.... 0-100 times, HP, torque, 1/4 mile times, track times etc. I appreciate everyones help but i dont buy based on opinion.

Who and where... names, phone numbers and addresses would be so helpful. If i could get a package that performs EXACTLY like the mines car for the same price or less in sydney, i would get it right now without hesitation... i just dont trust anyone in australia. Mines has been around since 1988 and from what ive seen it is worth every cent.

Ofcourse i know its a bare engine, thats why i said im getting the entire mines catalog, so i meant i would save the tuning from their ECU, the VX-ROM. I know the costs involved and from what ive seen its worth every cent.

Yeah i will retune it to be safe, ill save a copy of mines original tune to my laptop incase i use 100 octane at the track. How much power loss would you estimate between 98 and 100 octane? Im going for the entire mines catalog so hopefully it wont be too far away from the 580HP figure.

Make sure you let us know how it is when you try it, ive been looking for an alternative to shell as well.

The shell round the corner from my house sells that optimax extreme (100ron, 5%ethanol) does this stuff compare to the jap fuels?

Is it possible to get me one too? PM details if you can. Do you think aus fuel is inferior or superior? From what ive seen, the mines R34 has massive torque and pulls hard all the way upto redline which is the exact reason i want that engine. My car is going to be used for circuit so HP isnt my main concern.

The missus is going to kill me when she finds out what im getting.

Thanks for letting us know, helps alot incase others have this issue.

That was going to be my next question, will it pass emissions so that i can register the car with that engine for road use in NSW?... if anyone knows or can find out for me that would be a HUGE help.

Question is, can this be engineered for use on australian roads??
