I guess "off the mark" is really a torque matter until the turbo can do anything for you. A bigger turbo will probably take even longer to spool on a 2L motor... perhaps a high-flow ball-bearing jobbie on your current turbo? Perhaps a series 2 R33 turbo might be more efficient. They are ball-bearing already, and have a nylon compressor wheel.

Other than that, I recken a tune of the AFR's might help a bit down low. Certainly the exhaust and dump will play a big part in torque. "no cat is stock" ? Do you have no cat or the stock cat? If stock, replace to match the rest of your system man!

is your mates car a R33 or R34. If so.. they are faster off the mark because of the extra 0.5 ltr displacement. It does wonders with the low end torque problem the RB20DET has.

The solution is simple. Start saving for a new clutch.. and in the mean time do 7k/rpm launches lol.. Im sure u'll be faster then!

    • Yes...but look at the numbers. There is a tiny tiny fraction of the number of Joules available, compared to what is used/needed. Just because things are "possible" doesn't make them meaningful.
    • Thanks for taking the time to post that ! If anything changes or happens please do update us. 
    • Somehow Vertimass/Oak Ridge National Labs has figured out a catalyst that can convert ethanol into C9-C10 hydrocarbons in basically a single step without ending up with a bunch of ethylene or similar waste products: https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2023224867A1/en I still don't think anything like this will keep us from needing to transition to EVs regardless along with all kinds of other electrification, but things like this will go a long way towards alleviating the problem of how to electrify things like planes. Renewable diesel is seemingly an easier problem as well, Chevron is already running refineries for the stuff and the primary feedstock is tallow and other waste fats from agriculture.
    • Ok so I have sorted everything with my uniclutch and  i can offer up a bit of feedback and some things that might help others.    I found problems with factory damper line. Weird shit and had trouble with peddle adjustment    I used this https://au.gktech.com/products/r33-gts-t-skyline-braided-clutch-line?_pos=2&_sid=22b01b9b9&_ss=r Also when adjusting peddle leave a bit of play. You can get into a over stroke condition easy.. Make sure you can push the slave forward after adjusting to confirm fluid can return to master then you will need to pump it up heaps…..not sure why but that’s how it is.    last thing the splined adapter is machined perfectly. If your input shaft is old like mine was I would put a bit of valve grinding paste on it and stroke it like a 15 year old. Just to give it a tad more clearance and to better match it to the spline.    reason is on a near flat shift I have had situation where the peddle returns a millisecond after you lift from the clutch. No slip or anything but I reckon this is due to tolerance on the spline being way tighter than stock clutch and binding for a sec. I think this will go away but also my spline was old. Box is old so I guess I should have checked better. It’s a super neat fit.    it feels light as and holds awesome without any noise
