Swiper..please elaborate on some details of the stealth bomber..im curious as to why your not using the 2.8 that you have for sale.

Im tempted to put your 2.8 short in my car...damn house renovating sucking the cash though.

one word...Nitto.

The stealth bomber will look like a standard car, sound like a standard car but go like a supercar. Its the only way to do them these days with all the negative views towards the modified car scene. Under the bonnet the car will appear to be totally standard but will be nudging 400KW. The brakes and suspension will be big dollar top shelf stuff though and may give the game away. Croydon Racing will be in charge of the tuning and set-up.

I can do a head identical to the one on my racecar as a 20K long engine package if you like.

Not that nitto chinese crap HAHA, my sarcasm at its best!

Pauln the r32gtr is a japanese supercar in its standard form...the aust delivered gtr hit the market in 91 @ 130k :)

Can't wait to see the new toy though, twoogles brother from the same mother!

Yeah...its really painful to hear opinions from people who have had absolutely no experience with a product but seem to be an expert overnight.

The Nitto will rev much better than the Tomei, will work properly straight out of the box and be stronger.

I have been looking at the nitto stuff lately too..i like the fact they are are 4340 & full counterweight unlike most others in a stroker.

To be honest i will be pushing near 400kw soon with the engine thats already in the car,& everthing looks stock also.

Watcha gonna call it Paul. Threegle ? :P

(Cryptic or what) :)

Twootl...TWO.07L...lol

Nah it will wear the old plates on it and its silver...so really look the same as the old car did 5 years ago.

mmm...full counter goodness...i beam rods...JE ring package...and check the cross-section of those gudgeons.

couldn't agree anymore with your statement!

what nice gear nitto make :P crd delivers yet again!

It will be very interesting to see what the 180 cc (or whatever it is with the NITTO stroker) will do to your power graph with your sexy head. Still RS's Paul?

turbo's will be not quite RS'...too big for my driving ability...or lack there of on a circuit.

spent a big day at CRD with Jim and Con...car is making some good progress. Testing on Monday at Sydney Dragway...will be a good day.

Many thanks to CRD for sorting the car out...should be quick.

Theo has the worlds best job...jim tunes the cars and theo 'test drives' them lol...good bloke though!

We are making more power than before...but the torque graph tells more of a story...peak torque earlier in the rev. range and holds the line almost horizontal all the way to 10 000rpm.

:(

    • Oh and my rear arms may need some attention too.    
    • Bushings are almost done. Check the date stamp 😂 these are likely the original bushings with 27 years and 243ks on them.     Was too dark to get a pic of the worst one.
    • Porous blocks are a known issue on something like a Porsche M96, it's not really something I've ever heard of on an RB26. It's possible what people thought was a "porous block" was really a cracked block that they just didn't spot the crack on.
    • This is a controversial subject really, the whole power vs fun thing I mean And this is the main reason I got back into a MX5 Of the last few notable daily cars I've owned whilst I have frequented SAU R33 GTS-t: fun, but because I'm a idiot I modified well past a reliable fun car and ended up hating it, although that was my fault because I tried to have a daily cruiser and race car all in one, the family called it the sometimes car, because sometimes it was working, sometimes it was broken, gladly sold it NB MX5: brilliant car, thrashed the Bejebus out of it, but, again, was stupid and deleted the air con, power steering and stripped the interior out, whilst still fun, and reliable, and super cheap on consumables, it was not a fun place to be going on long cruises, I did love it, but basically every family member hated going anywhere in it, sadly sold it 2015 WRX STI: soulless thing that looked like your average Kia sedan and had that horrible boxer engine with glass ringlands, the family did like it though, that thing was one of my stupidest purchases and I still regret it 2017 Toyota 86: 😪 if I didn't crash it, I would probably still have it, it was a fun little thing, even with that horrible boxer engine, the family did like it, the only reason I didn't get another 86, or, BRZ was the boxer engine, I should have learnt after owning the STI, but I'm a idiot VX SS: great cruiser, fits the whole family, and was fast as.....in a straight line, but a big fat thing, so no enjoyment throwing it around corners, the family was unimpressed with the whole boganness of if, but they did admit it was a comfy place to sit on long cruises As for the NC, I feel it is perfect for what I want, or need out of of a car, whether I'm cruising the Hwy, back roads, twisties or peak hour traffic, the Mrs doesn't mind driving it either, or cruising in it as well, although she does bump her head of the roof nearly every time she gets in, which is farking hilarious, and the kids love taking it for a thrash as well So basically, I've had constantly more fun, and way less headache and heartache, both on the track and on the street, in low powered cars,  go figure.....LOL One thing though, the Mrs has stated that the cams have made the exhaust sound much louder, which they have, but it doesn't bother me, in fact, I actually like it, but, to negate any future comments from the Minister for War and Finances I may look at some changes to the rear muffler set-up to drop the volume down a tad to appease her when we are out and about in it
    • You will need to extend the turbo inlet pipe somehow, which could/might be done with silicone/rubber pipe, but might need steelwork, depending on your intake. And you will need to change the pipework on the outlet in teh same way, but this is more likely to need steelwork.
