But the lag not so much of an issue as long as the turbo doesn't drop off boost between gear changes and has a decent size power band then its all good just can't miss to many gears :D

Say if that car came on strong at 6K and rev'd to 10K then your going to have 4,000rpm of terror to play with ;) even most stock skylines (gtst's) don't have a power band that large.

probably even faster than that cause the exhaust housing is relatively small so its gonna spool up quicker with less top end than what a drag car would.

This thing would cane the hell out of stokell and richards and all the other nations cup drivers.

No wonder they wanted to ban this!

T.

was this banned from Nations Cup? what's with banning GTR's! ;) What cars do stokell and richards drive? Is richards in a Porsche?

So would this car be able to take down the Bowes Ferrari's, and Lambo's?

Oh yeah, any guesses at full boost 5000rpm? 4000rpm? 0 - 100km times? Just that all the modification explanations are a little over my head so i need some basic joe bloe facts :D

cheers.

Great car, I think that's the tuffest GTR I have ever seen...and I've sat in the Gibson GTR!

grms, what exactly is the class you are running, as in what races will your GTR being in?

Big big shame re too much bullshit to get into Nations Cup. Can you run in the Bathurst 24H under a particular class?

Cheers,

Freebaggin.

I Race in Sports Cars category.

This car can run in Bathurst 24hr - as Invited Category – Potential Bathurst 24hr winner.

Due to my involvement with Procar - Nations Cup category I am not allow to race there.

(it will be conflict of interest)

My car will be available for lease for that particular race.

Serious offer considered.

You say:

(Big big shame re too much bullshit to get into Nations Cup.)

I agree - due to parity adjustment to some race cars it is difficult to be fast in Nations Cup Championship, but Bathurst 24hr is not a problem because it is Special Event and not as a part of Championship.

grms, mate that is great, I hope you get some serious offers for 24hr event as I am going to the race again this year.

Never seen Sport Cars on TV, must have missed it, I assume not the same as Sports Sedans.

grms if you don't mind i like to ask a few questions regarding you're build of the car.

i'm suprised you still using the standard intake plenum, is it still using the factory (six) throtle bodies or are you going to replace it with a large single.

with you using the factory head gasket do you mean as in thickness or the actual (material based) gasket.

are you thinking of using 'oil coolers' for the transmission and diff.

with reagrds to you're torque split controller have you replaced the front diff or cv joints to larger unit/s

with you deciding to go for the 1500hp sx fuel pump would you be putting in an extra one as backup if it fails.

the custom 12 litre oil sump and baffle do you make that in house as i'm interested in buying one for myself and is it a bolt on or do you 'modify' the standard oil sump.

otherwise you have some serious gear in it at the moment and good to see a gtr built for track work. hope all goes well for you.

    • Hey guys I’m chasing a Rb20det complete or bare block need a good running engine as mine has low comp 
    • You're making my point for me. 95 is not "premium". It is a "slightly higher octane" version of the basic 91 product. The premium product that they want people to buy (for all the venal corporate reasons of making more profit, and all the possibly specious reasons of it being a "better" fuel with nicer additive packages) is the 98 octane stuff. 95 is the classic middle child. No-one wants it. No-one cares about it. It is just there, occupying a space in the product hierarchy.
    • 98 and 95 have to meet the same national fuel standards beside the actual RON.  91 has lower standards (which are quite poor really), so 95 is certainly not 91 with some octane booster. It would be an easier argument to claim 98 is just 95 with some octane boosters. Also RON doesn't specify 'quality' in any sense, only the octane number.  Anything different retailers decide or not decide to add to their 95 or 98 is arbitrary and not defined by the RON figure.
    • Anyone know alternatives to powerplus tungsten? Can't find an alternative online. 
    • 95 is just a scam outright. 98 is the real "premium" with all the best detergents and other additive packages, and at least historically, used to be more dense also. 95 is just 91 bargain basement shit with a little extra octane rating. Of course, there's 91 and there's 91 also. I always (back in the 90s early 2000s) refused to put fuel in from supermarket related fuel chains on the basis that it was nasty half arsed shit imported from Indonesia. Nowadays, I suspect that there is little difference between the nasty half-arsed shit brought in by the "bargain" chains and the nasty half-arsed shit brought in by the big brands, given that most of it is coming from the same SEAsian refineries. Anyway - if there's still anything to that logic, then it would apply to 95 also. 98 is only made in decent refineries and, as I said, is usually the "premium" fuel, both in terms of octane rating and "use this because it's good for your engine because it's got the unicorn jizz in it!".
