plus what type of 400kw u talking about? u could boost spike to make 400kw, u could hit it with a farking 300hp shot of gas. or u could spend to $$$'s and get the power everywhere, not just being a peaky 400kw

i can't believe how wankerfull the '07 crew is :domokun:

a war with a clown indeed joshwa :domokun:

When will people be more like us Shane. They all forget what a real build is.

I think when people work out what a decent twin/triple plate clutch costs, along with a fuel system elaborate enough to supply 400rwkw, they’ll work out quick just what the real costs are for big kw figures, that last more then a few dyno pull's.

haha yeh man, only the people who have gone through the 'proper' build know the actual costs involved.

take ur example of fuel system, a complete system would set u back 3k atleast. thena clutch. then a gearbox. then a diff. axles. cooler, radiator. ecu. ebc. tuning. blah blah blah

rofl i alrady know that mate, i am reaching the finish of my project atm mate.

all i have left is a turbo and high mount manifold, clutch, emu

the point with the rx7= cheaper means to make the same amount of power it would take for a piston engine.

now before people begin to lecture a person, perhaps u should consider, that we are also educated in these matters.

its ova mate.

sell your 'porsche'

and get a rx7

your not gonna change my mind.

there is no debating this mate u cant win

end of debate.

Where did I say it’s my Porsche? I didn’t. I said I could be seen in one.

I’m not out too change your mind on anything. You’re just oblivious to what things cost. Sure, you MIGHT crack 400rwkw, but not without a big gas kit and it’s not going to last very long.

So your “400kw” rx7, really isn’t 400kw at all.

To use a word from someone very un wise.. People just can’t be “educated”.

got that mate, stuff i need (refer to previous statement)

not going for forgies, lol, so dont ask

all i have left is a turbo and high mount manifold, clutch, emu

turbo $2500

manifold $1200

clutch $1200

emu $2000

And thats on the cheap. Arent OS Giken clutch's and the likes still up around $2500 - $3500

thats a bit higher then what i can get the parts for, but most people these days pay retail for most gear.

yeah os twins are around 2.5k new. 1200 is for a jim berry clutch (what ive got to go in the gtr, he said it'll hold me to over 1000hp, it looks like i'll be seeing how real that claim is)

alright...how about get an rx7...find out its not as good as a 34 GTR, then buy a GTR....then buy a Dodge Viper :( haha gotta love vipers

A viper? lol... Yeh they are tough. But I would take the rx7 or the R34 before a Viper.

$3500 for the "and the likes" eg: HKS quds with carbon plates ect.

Jim berry is rather awesome indeed.

    • Sorry no - The sandtrap adventure ended the day, happened at the end of the last session. At that time I wasn't hearing any weird noises nor were the brakes shuddering anymore. It was only when watching the videos that I remembered I had these sounds early on!
    • Did the noise appear after your sand trap adventure? Could be something got dislodged and is playing rub rub. Even a rock wedged somewhere.
    • Is there a shroud around the tailshaft spline into the back of the box? They can rub and make a horrible noise if they are not on straight/damaged. The heat might have caused it to grow too much in one direction and rub.
    • Strangely I noticed it either disappear later in the day, or not be present. I definitely noticed when I was crawling around that open wheel thingy entering the pits (that part was audible in car). Driving home and commuting around town for example, I didn't hear it. It's plausible that it was a brake disc or something still slightly in contact. The brakes absolutely felt BAD for the first couple of sessions, huge amounts of shudder and grinding as they got up to temp - And then I actually just forgot about it as the day went on/didn't notice it. The videos were from the morning when this was more present than the afternoon/drive home when it wasn't. I've asked around and got a variety of responses including handbrake shoe contacting hub, CV joints, CB tailshaft bearing as above, and clutch input bearing. I didn't test if it disappeared when clutch was in. I haven't noticed it in any of the other videos nor did I notice it when driving to that extent. More or less hoping the microphone at the rear license plate giving some kind of clue of 'something' but it looks like "spin stuff and see if you can notice it" is the way forward here. I could be smart and use the gopro mic and re-mount it to that location to see if the sound is still present at low speed actually. Sounds like a decent test whenver I have the CBF'ness to drive the car again. Given it's almost 40C for the day of the track day and the next 3 days after, the CBF is high. All I've done since getting home is unpack the car, remove the remnants of the lip and undertray and left it there. I was surprised how well the PMU Club Racers actually worked. The brake performance on the track was absolutely fantastic, best I've ever personally used, no fade whatsoever and the bitiness was almost too good, I was scrubbing more speed off than I needed to, but I also ended up infield when I started trying to scrape off ... less speed.... so...
    • Not really, no. Anything you would do is easily reversible.
