We recently had Powercruise visit Darwin. There were plenty of tough cars out and about. Here's a little vid of the shopping car:

Video doesnt really do it justice, my passenger was crapping himself.

Brad, this was in 2wd, 2nd gear. I managed to stuff my new twin plate clutch, would have given 3rd a go. It made 489rwhp on 21psi. I have a tank of avgas in it now so I will put it back on the rollers and crank some more boost into it.

Love the minis Heath, my mate is putting a couple together atm.

Fully aware of how to drift bud, order yourself a Powercruise DVD and have a look. During the cruise sessions you are NOT allowed to drift, powerskids only ie, no sitting on the brake making a heap of smoke. All I was doing was plating it in 2nd and letting the motor do the rest of the work.

MADE!!!!!!! lol dont worry brad we still like you.

yeah least you get to have some fun with your shows. motorvation is a dismal event. love the fact the stagea can get the tyres spinning when rolling without to much effort. awesome.

Thanks for the nice comments guys and girls. Got a nos kit ready to go on, should get me around 650rwhp, which is stiiiilllll not enough to catch up to Brad! Damn your Jun powered trolley :pwned:

well thats no fun :(

'sif the yanks know anything about powerskids and burnouts! Don't you guys still chock the front wheels in a burnout comp? I have always thought that was the main reason drifting took off so fast in seppo land.

if you need nitrous to get 650HP, you need to build your motor a little better

A real good friend just dynoed his r32 at 600HP. with no nitrous and N1 turbos

Dont know who you are buddy but i am pretty sure you dont know much about my car. It is built to take 1000hp. Not sure where your mate got his car dynoed but 600hp at the rears on n1's is pretty high. Do I need to mention my run was done on 21psi?

yeah, his N1s are maxed out, time to upgrade

ill be happy with my measley 400 on an rb25

but why are you using nitrious instead of a larger turbo?

I dont know about aussie

but NOS Is like 200 bucks a small bottle to build.

at that price its more economical to pay for a larger turbo to me.

But sitll, your number is impressive

what turbo was that on?

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
