What is the weight of the car when you go to the track?

Cheers

the last time we raced it weighed 1474kg...without the 106kg driver...so a 398KW GTR to go 10.3 sec's weighing 1580kg with a synchro box is a fair achievement.

we have stripped some weight out of it since so it will be interesting to put it on the scales at the track next week.

unfortunately i still weigh over 100kg

^Hahaha

What does twoogle mean anyway?

it means nothing...

our number plate reads TWO.06L...meaning two point six litre.

some people when making up custom plates use a 6 as a G

my mate one day was looking at the plate and asked us "what does twoogl mean"?

we had a laugh and explained to him that it meant 2.6litre...and that the 6 was not meant to be a G but actually a 6...

he said nah stuff it im now gonna call it "twoogle"

this name stuck and has grown to even been included in the drag records lists and in magazine articles

its weird how some nicknames evolve and stick

wow. thats a very impresive power and torque figure. how does it drive off boost? much loss dow low compared with the old setup?

oh pretty please can you post up a comparison dyno graph of your old setup and this one?

ps. after i find a gearbox (smashed inputrshaft)its valvetrain im doing next. 1.5bar and 8.3k on stock springs isnt probably very smart of me...

yeah max torque is @ 4500rpm but look at the overall torque spread from 4000-9500 its unbelieveable on the road.

Stace is good and the baby should be here in the next few weeks

Dave a comparison graph will be available next week.

Holy shit. (Says a big single owner)

Paul, you are nuts :P

What gearbox have you got in there?

hehe she's pretty mad (you wont see a torque curve like that with your big single)

ill bite haha

not a lot in it here

awesome work...but to be fair...i was just giving steve a little niggle

wait till mines tuned and running some decent boost and then ill go the dyno "pepsi challenge" with ya.

what is your set-up?

main point that was being made in the 1st post was that so many people think to make this sort of power, a big single turbo is the answer...and its just not so. Even low-mount twins can deliver if set-up correctly.

    • That's true. However, this problem has started since the tuning. First time with the return journey from the tuning. But yes, the pipe was clogged with dirt and rust. That was certainly due to age
    • Great info @tidi0x  Will definitely be handy for others and maybe me if I decide to keep the shit box H pattern.
    • Bumping this up one last time.... I wanted to follow up on the clutch slave issue. I realized that what the issue comes down to is the pocket is flat milled, and the cylinder does not want rest flat. So in order to mount it correctly you will need to make a spacer for the fingers so the cylinder is floating. I took two plates of aluminum, drilled some holes and was good. I did still need to make the relief cuts in the bell housing, as even with the spacer the bleed section still interferes. The OE bell housing the mounting holes are raised from the housing.       
    • If the event in USA goes ahead will be interesting as it seems the rules will get more cars over here. Apparently the track is laguna seca too. Yeah s15, if I get a the lower dash trims, centre console and change front cross member to standard LCA position will fit clubsprint. See how rules are as i would rather do complete widebody than a bolt on flare to run the 295 with proper clearance.
    • If the car is legal height I can't see it being an issue. Found a thread on reddit that might offer some insight.   I got a ticket from a copper in QLD for my S15 being too low. They had this wheel thing on a stick that they put under the car and it hit my exhaust. Anyhow went to an exhaust shop to get the exhaust tucked up/hung a little higher and I wound the coilovers up a smidge. Don't think I even had to go back to the police station unlike when I got defected for having a carbon bonnet when I brought the S15 from the ACT to QLD and had to replace it and then rock up at a police station and have a yougish female officer who knew nothing about cars confirm that I had changed bonnets. Should have just painted the carbon bonnet yellow to match the rest of the car lol
