Well after a weekend working on my car, adding some extra mods. I decided to take it to the strip to see what she can get.

Specs:

1995 S1.5 R33 GTST

17inch 255 rears / 235 fronts (put rears at 25psi)

Lowered

Bov

Just Jap FMIC

Batmbl twin 3 inch dump and highflow cat

3inch cat bak

Pod filter

that ebay boost controller

set at 10-11psi

Best run of 13.857sec @ 105.26mph with a 2.494sec 60foot

The only thing i need to do is practice the launch and should get a low 13 maybe high 12??

Will post up a video next week sometime.

Rear tyres are Khumo Supra's 255 17's

Model number 712 I think

But as I was saying I only got a 2.49 sec 60foot time which i was getting better then that in my fwd corolla

u do realise that u can take off on teh last orange

because ur reaction time from sensing the green light to actually planting ur foot is around 0.1 seconds - u can actually take off on the last orange cause the time between the last orange and the green is..dading..0.1-0.12 seconds (depending on the circuit)

and so taking of on the last orange actually is taking off on teh green due to reaction times etc etc etc - that will help a bit with ur 60ft time

      Skip the concrete, we just need to smooth a field. Mark knows how to drive a grader Duncan   I reckon 100x100 flat area for skid pan style, and then some sort tracks for rally... Duncan's already got a rally car on the premises to...

      PRP RB26 cast block + head prototype running

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Well, yeah, the RB26 is definitely that far off the mark. From a pure technology point of view it is closer to the engines of the 60s than it is to the engines of the last 10 years. There is absolutely nothing special about an RB26 that wasn't present in engines going all the way back to the 60s, except probably the four valve head. The bottom end is just bog standard Japanese stuff. The head is nothing special. Celicas in the 70s were the same thing, in 4cyl 2 valve form. The ITBs are nothing special when you consider that the same Celicas had twin Solexes on them, and so had throttle plates in the exact same place. There's no variable valve timing, no variable inlet manifold, which even other RBs had either before the 26 came out or shortly afterward. The ECU is pretty rude and crude. The only things it has going for it are that the physical structure was pretty bloody tough for a mass produced engine, the twin-turbos and ITBs made for a bit of uniqueness against the competition (and even Toyota were ahead on the twin turbs thing, weren't they?) and the electronic controls and measuring devices (ie, AFMs, CAS, etc) were good enough to make it run well. Oh, and it sounds better than almost anything else, ever. The VR38 is absolutely halfway between the RB generation and the current generation, so it definitely has a massive increase in the sophistication of the electronics, allowing for a lot more dynamic optimisation of mapping. Then there's things like metal treatments and other coatings on things, adoption of variable cam stuff, and a bunch of other little improvements that mean it has to be a better thing than the RB26. But I otherwise agree with you that it is approximately the same thing as a 26. But, skip forward another 10 years from that engine and then the things that I mentioned in previous post come out to play. High compression, massively sophisticated computers, direct injection, clever measuring sensors, etc etc. They are the real difference between trying to make big power with a 26 and trying to make big power with a S/B50/54 (or whatever the preferred BMW engine of the week is).

      Thinking of getting a Q50 300hp and just tuning it instead of getting the Q50 Red or 400R

      Is the RB26 actually that far off the mark? Honestly from where I'm sitting a VR38DETT is not actually that much more advanced than the RB26. Yes, there is a scavenge pump on the VR38, it's smarter in a number of ways but it's not actually jumping out to me as alien technology. Something like a B58 or V35A-FTS on the other hand has so many surprising little design features that add up to be something that just isn't comparable.
