I think there is no chance you get 350awkw with a GT3076 the compressor will run out of flow. You are into GT3582 territory (and this assumes you are going to ignore your ideas on drivetrain loss ). The car will be awesome with your choice of turbo but peak power will be much lower. If the fat log gets an RB30 then I will definitely use a GT3076. Ms Wolv spends most of her time in Sydney traffic in cut and thrust driving so it should be pretty lively for a fat car with that combo.

Crown Promenade?

Yep.

They were never sold here. I crawled under and had a look. I can't read Japanese to tell you the brand but the numbers listed are: 2000kg 750kg 500kg I am guessing the 2000kg relates to an electronically braked trailer. I can photos although it is a little hard to get underneath to be able to see the tag.

OP says 500hp then a 500hp turbo will get him there. Do you agree with that?? (ignore the slippery slope that is drivetrain losses and has been argued to death in forced induction since 2003) GT3076 with bigger fuel pump, bigger injectors FMIC, 3" exhaust, FMIC, engine management + tuning is limited? In what way? What else is needed? Going over 500hp with a stock engine generally becomes far less reliable so the costs start stacking up over this level and you won't get an argument from me on that. Tuning needs to be fatter and less aggressive to keep well away from det. I have owned an R33 since 2001 and the Stagea for quite a while too. I strongly doubt you have spent more on them than I have over that time. To get your 700hp is an expensive road to go down there is no question that engine internals, balancing and presumably a good look at the head is needed to get a reliable result. Then you open the door to drivetrain issues and the spending mounts up quickly. On drivetrain losses, I believe you are making a mistake if you trying to use % loss. This has been argued back and forth in forced induction. Consistently the S1 GTS-t's make around 125-130rwkw in stock form (ignoring some outlying dyno variation). It shows around 60kw loss. AWD Nissans generally show around 10kw additional loss in AWD vs 2WD but there isn't as much in it as people think. Auto losses are definitely higher. Most cars show largely fixed loss (and if you don't believe me dyno a car before and after NOS and see what happens) but it makes sense that the harder you push the car the more will be lost to friction etc. IMO there is a fixed loss with a slight increasing % change at higher power levels. Getting back to the OP's goal 500hp fly is easily achievable. If using a slushbox that needs to be looked at.

Disappointed that we didn't get Duncan's car on the hoist to play spot the oil leak. Just guessing that everyone would win a prize. Thanks SAU NSW and the staff from Wholesale Suspension for a fun informative night.

Spot on.

Really?! There is around 60kw drivetrain loss +/- a few (or about 80hp). GT3076 is a 500hp turbo with supporting mods will make 300rwkw on 98ron. 500hp = 367kw It seems to add up to me. A quick scan of the RB25 dyno thread will show some actual results.

Our Jap towbar is rated at much more than 1000kg.

I might pay to attend to that sooner rather than later.

500hp (flywheel) is a whisker over 300rwkw. Stock engine treated well with good tuning will cope for a reasonable period of time at this level. Bigger injectors, bigger fuel pump, bigger turbo, 3" exhaust, FMIC + tuning and you are there.

I believe there is also a metal comp wheel on some OP6 turbos. They are not magnetic so don't worry about that.

Expect a letter in the mail from my legal people. I have an event called 'WANKR Nationals'. Yes, that is right I have 2 national's in my name = 2x the hektikness. ps. I have P/L sorted so don't try any funny stuff

If in doubt quote the bit that suits and use it in your own context I say. (I am moving into federal politics next year btw.) I unreservedly apologise for any misunderstanding and have assumed the position

Going from 160kg to 1kg with the current fuel levels requires no compromise?!?!

Refueling. I hate seeing every car driving 8sec off their quali time and then pacing themselves throughout the race.

One more chorus.... No conspiracy, they simply make some dud calls.

Korea delivers on the walk of biches.

SV 139.6 last lap to show the real pace of the RBR with clear air.

LH fastest lap because he is a mobile roadblock

Good drive by Ricciardo, he has D'Ambrosio covered and working on Glock.

I would have given him one lap of clean air before pitting him.

wtf RBR are farked in the head.
