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

Well it nearly made it through 1 lap last time out with 285 so I'm looking to improve on that...

I'm not revving the tits off of it, and 300 will come once everything is sorted so we'll see.

Troy: quite a nice list there mate hopefully we get to see it all together. Good luck blowing up that standard motor though!

So i fitted some R34 GTR rims today with undersized 235/45/18s and my god they are close to the suspension arms! Are you running spacers? Amazed the wider semis fit without rubbing on suspension arms ?!?!?!?!?!

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

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

It will have an RB20 block and Rb20 head....so still very much an RB20 :banana: Looking at the wing today, it looks ok and doesnt really look like a GTR wing as its on an R32 GTSt.

Roy,

I am still pretty green on this forum, but, could you please post some photos up of your R32, if you don't mind? Everyone seems to talk about it, and I think it is great that you are sticking with it and the RB20.

Mike

      I am currently going this route. I am curious how much horse power you put behind the cut bell housing? Collins was telling me I am going to crack it and bluh bluh bluh. Because I didn’t buy the custom fly wheel from him. I am looking for somewhere around like 500 hp

      Thanks @PranK for the updated member status, much appreciated! 👍🏼 Now, about those pics… Unfortunately I could only find ones that I took in the dark. I was soon to discover that underneath it wasn’t in the best shape, but it was mine and that’s all I cared about at the time 😆

      A little PU bush story

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Oh, and only having done this task yesterday, I've now driven the car ~60km since, and while it is hard to avoid placebo effect and confirmation bias, I reckon that some annoyances I had with the way the car has been behaving have improved. Which....kinda makes sense, I guess. If the bushes were really stiff and resisting rotation, they would have been contributing to the effective wheel rate. And if it was more so on one side (which it was, because one side was worse than the other) then.... you might imagine that the additional rate would be asymmetric, and potentially even different between compression and rebound. And so... the car has been twitchy at higher speeds - like freeway on ramps. It really shouldn't be. The wheel alignment is good and there are no (other) known problems elsewhere in the suspension. But at 90-100 on a long sweeping ramp, tiny steering wheel motions would make it feel like it wanted to rear steer. Quite nervous. At lower speeds it would heave about in a manner that it didn't use to. Didn't want to put power down, etc etc. Now...seems to behave better. Am going to have to concentrate on the various corners where it has exhibited weirdness, on the rare occasions when I can get a decent run at them without Methanial getting in the way in his D-Max/Ranger/LDV Van/etc.
