my project is nearly complete.

engine has just undergone a rebuild and in addition ive added a GTR plenum with ITB to a rb25de+t

ill do a write up once its completed and tuned.

nice!

i'm also running gtr plenum on rb25det, one of the best mods i have done responds in amazing

Here our quick 6 month build going on 5 years. Hopefully finish it next year. It's a dirt circuit open wheeler powered by a 1jz. It will hopefully weigh 800 kg and make 400 hp to be competitive. Our racing is open so anything goes. We are going to run a venturi under the car and also GP style push rod suspension. If Anyone is SA keen to build a car like this or a saloon check out www.dirtcircuitsa.com. We are currently building a new track approx 85 km from Adelaide and it only costs $10 to come and race.

Cheers

Matt

Here's a video of the open wheeler class :-

Well seems my car is back in one piece...now to find a garage for a few days and bolt all the goodies back on and then go start blowing stuff up again :wub: 2010 is looking like it could be a decent year of motorsport provided i can stay in the country...

What i really want is a 993 GT2

  • 2 weeks later...

Yeah it's pretty damn cool looking isn't it Chris! It's a shame I'll be covering it in HPC coating...

That's a pic of Ian's (Juggernaut1) Full Race manifold, and I've just ordered the same one along with dual 38mm Tial wastegates and a twin scroll 3071R turbo to go onto the 180. Should give me a really responsive 300rwkw's or so, can't wait to get it on :)

how many laps till an sr flies to pieces at 300rwkw? or arn't you going to rev it?

16 or so.

mine has 15 laps of OP under it's belt at 285ish so i expect a bang next time i cross a start/finish line

Them's fighting words Troy! It's on like Donkey Kong... though the nuffer behind the wheel of the 180 might let the team down :D

2.4 hey? Sounds nice! What turbo are you running with it, the 25G?

There is some uncertainty at the moment with work so i dont know if i am back OS soon or hanging around so for the time being its same old same old std RB20 and 20G. But yeh, if the crank, pistons, rods, solid lifters, cams, springs, plenum, 25G, RB25 gearbox, new cooling setup and new fuel setup ever get installed my car should be a fair bit quicker :)

Still have to blow up the std motor though :ninja:

But....But....If you do all that it wont be an rb20 anymore......

Oh and have you taken that bloody GTR wing off yet?

    • If you ask just me you'll get 3 different answers.
    • Do not ever trust ChatGPT with anything math related. They can't do math. They have no idea what it is. With enough data we can fit a decent equation in Excel, or if the available fits in Excel aren't good enough, a Matlab clone.
    • You could check/calibrate that with a thermometer, we have long glass thermometers at work which go from -10 to +150°c, they are pretty cheap too I believe,  as monkey fisted soldiers tend to break them, and getting new ones don't seem to send red flags to the people that hold the purse strings Edit: after a google they apparently cost about $80, but, digital ones seem to be much cheaper at around $40
    • I should have prefaced all of this with "I'd really like to not pull anything out of the car for this" 
    • Me, I would happly spend some more coin on better tyres for my street car  Will they work, yes, of course, but why substitute some dry grip/braking distance, and wet weather grip/braking distance on what is really old tech to save some coin on your "precious" street car In the end it might not be you that farks up, it's the thousands of other idiots on the street that you need to worry about  For a street car that gets some "fun time", I have found that a quality tyre that can handle dry, wet, cold (Canberra gets pretty cold) and hot conditions, which may costs a little more, is great insurance  From my experience with them (driving around Goulburn in the winter) the RE003's are pretty poor in cold and/or wet conditions on the street If RS4's didn't hate gripping in the cold I would be running them always on the street,  great in the dry, OK in the wet, but, they do hate the cold, with a passion, I run PS5's year round now, basically, I've found the PS5 to be a great year round street tyre for all conditions, they last well, and are mid range pricing wise TL;DR. Tyre choice is probably like what brand and grade oil you should use, ask 10 people, and get 10 different answers... LOL
