It's only posted an 11.8 as I always do it with full trim (including stereo), so i'm pulling over 2 tonnes down the strip.

It has no traction in first.

Or second.

And when the track cools, sometimes not in third.

Cross the finish doing 220 which should be good for a 10 second pass. I just need different wheels to capacitate slicks, which I refuse to do as it is a waste of money.

how many gearboxes have u gone through? i broke mine first pass with 522hp (has made 605hp before, which would probably be about 700hp on a hub type dyno, going by the local dynos anyway) and threw in a dogbox and ran a 11.3 @ 125mph. I highly doubt 220kmh at end of strip, the drag calculator which is pretty damn accurate reckons u would need 650rwkw to run that speed and thats good for 9's. 2 tonne and 500kw is around 125mph.

I'll see if I still have a slip lying around.

According to the drag calculator:

Weight 2000kg, time = 11.8 means I need 530.4HP

For 800 at engine, ET is 10.3

Engine Motor Horsepower Estimate Calculator - Elapsed Time ET

Automobile Car Truck Motorcycle

Quarter Mile Run Or Drag Race

Note: This is a rough estimate of engine horsepower.

Using the

Engine Motor Horsepower Estimate Calculator - Trap Speed

To cross at 220km/h they calculate I need 870HP at the fly.

Note: This is a rough estimate of engine horsepower.

It does state 650kW, but they are talking ENGINE, not wheel power.

And still have factory gearbox.

WoW...simply amazing,I remember this stag when I join this group but it got to a level far up of anything I've seen or imagine....the only thing that can say(that my envy allows me to say) is congratulations you built the real heck of a ride...

Cheers for the comments. I am just organising the photos for the build thread. Do you guys want it from the start, or just the last lot that finished with what I have now?

It was factory --> fully forged + stereo 1 --> added T04z --> stereo 2 --> painted --> current motor. DO you want all 3 years worth, or just the last (stereo 2 --> painted --> current motor)?

Whatever you can be bothered to post up i reckon we'd be happy with!

Hi,

Here are a couple of photos of my 2002 Stagea 250RS. These were taken 10 days ago on the "Railway straight" of the Hamilton 400 V8 track. The car has 19" ZU2 mags that look pretty trick. I'll take some more photos and add them on the weekend.

Nice shots man... but who is the try-hard in the driver's seat with shades on at night???

I like it Nick... but that shot makes me feel like a dentist working on a molar. :)

ahaha! i tell the little one it'll gobble her up if she's not careful!

i was thinking the same thing. but they're fantastic shots though. i wish i had the capability to shoot like that.

hahah actually its the shadow from the rear-view mirror across my eyes.

unless you mean the bonnet shots, then thats me lol

Yep. The bonnet shots... and I figured it was you... those lights can get bright, eh? :ninja:

    • So, good news and bad news Bad news first: The intake plenum is lost in the mail apparently, I haven't paid for it yet, and MX5 Mania are still chasing it up, farking 'Merica postal service  Good news: Any retune will be free if and when it turns up,  I'm still keen for them to throw it on The car goes noticeably better, with only the typical initial take off thingie from a choppy cam and manual transmission, but giving it just a little more RPM than before gives it a smooth take off (and hour or so of peak hour traffic sorted that little skill out) Car made around 145kwatw & 225Nm (Intake may get me to 150kw, maybe....🤣) Weirdly, 145kwatw is the same max power that my standard 2015 WRX STI made a few years ago The cam really comes alive from around 3.5k and keeps making power and holds it flatish all the way to 7k, whereas before torque would drop hard around at 4.5k Drive home was sadly in peak hour, although I did get a little clean air here and there to wind out 1st and 2nd a little bit, and whilst the gains aren't anything for the "boosted boys" to be impressed at, the thing is a blast to drive The sound in the vid is poor, as it is in a undercover yard at work, but, outside, in the wild, it sounds awesomeballs to my ears with all the choppyness I consider it money very well spent for the outcome  Cam specs for reference (Basically the biggest you can fit with stock pistons) 20250417_171807.mp4   LOL, I don't think I will ever grow up  
    • Swap the injectors around and see what happens. If the misfire follows the injectors then that's a signal, if it doesn't it's probably not the injectors.
    • R33 with RB26 seems to go off of learned voltage for idle. Seemed like whatever the baseline voltage was once ECU first gains power will be the idle voltage. With ignition on unplug/replugging the TPS would relearn the idle TPS voltage.
    • Have you confirmed the 2 pin coolant temp sensor on the motor is working properly? I've had a very similar issue when I forgot to plug mine back in many years ago.
    • Ok interesting i guess ill wait till using a manual gauge before making assumptions.
