Its insane the bench mark these days :(

Tell me about it, I remember when/if you had 300 you were a gods greatest gift.

win. lookin forward to seeing that thing bust some fat skids.

shame the potato potato conversion in s chassis cars hasnt really caught on over here...

It's not really all that hard though, that's what I don't understand is why it hasn't.

I don't care about what people say these days, when it's done A.I.R ( Anzac International Raceway ) Will be opened back up. :laugh::P

At the moment a fresh CA because I was going to go over the pits but now I'm thinking it's not worth it as I will get done straight away with the new set up.

Oh they were the best. I remember the 1st time in A l e x ' s car up on the stall at the lights then just skating across all 3 lanes.

It's not really all that hard though, that's what I don't understand is why it hasn't.

yeah, ive looked at a bunch of conversions that have been done state side and talked to a bunch of people that have done it, and it seems like one of the simplest conversions ever. and for a steady and reliable 250+ rwkw with a f**ktonne of torque for a reasonably small outlay, i really dont see why more people havent done it. if i could do that and keep the s14 street legal i would, shit, selling my sr and all the junk attached to it would pay for a pretty fair portion of the conversion.

100 ron you mean?

In addition to United Petroleum introducing BOOST 98 and PLUS ULP at its retail sites. United has also introduced, PREMIUM 100 and PREMIUM 98. United's customers are able to choose from regular unleaded petrol and ethanol enhanced fuels.

http://www.unitedpetroleum.com.au/index.asp?pgID=65

"Premium100 is a high performance petrol with an octane of 100, which is the highest rating available in the Australian market. Ethanol is a natural octane enhancer - adding 10% ethanol to petrol boosts its octane number and its performance. Ethanol helps the other components in petrol burn more completely. It also has a cleaning effect on the cars fuel system. Premium100 will give your car more zip! "

reading from that it should b better then BP ultimate. i might have to give it a try... i fill up tuesdays so might use it 2moro. any1 tried it?

    • So the clockspring is responsible for the indicators cancelling on their own? I thought that was the function of that white thing in the center (any idea what it's called?)
    • Can you log IAT? Whilst WTA coolers have their place, doing any sort of sustained run is not one of them There are fixes that slow down the heat soak, like ice boxes, which don't last that long, and interchillers, which are fairly expensive, up grades to the WTA cooling radiator, which may require a bigger pump, and upgrades to the reservoir size,  and upgrades to the cooling fans, but, it all still heat soaks, and takes ages to come down in hot weather  For a turbo, that isn't locked into WTA like my PD blower is, can you not possibly swap to a nice air to air intercooler????, it would be better for sustained runs then, and have alot less things that could go wrong in my opinion 
    • So, the other thing I've sorted is a baseline dyno run up at Unigroup's new location. The auto trans was a little unco-operative by both shifting down when the throttle was floored on the dyno (so Mark had to ramp it up more slowly than in a manual) and also by shifting up at 6,000 even in sports mode instead of the indicated redline of 7,000 Still, on a hot day it made 240rwkw at 16psi which seems about right for 300kw (400hp) through an auto at the wheels.  The shape of the curve is not quite right because it was not full throttle to about 4,500 to stop it kicking down, but until I can get a tune on the auto trans control this was the best we could do.....full boost will be well below 5,000 once that is sorted, I'll get some data logs when I can to confirm For comparison, the R32 made 255 at 12psi (at 4,500) on the same dyno with tune, n1 turbos, cam gears, big exhaust but otherwise all standard so the v37 is likely a little better out of the box. One thing that is very clear is that the standard water to air intercoolers are not up to sustained use at full throttle in warm ambient temps. After about 5 runs (so only a few minutes full throttle), it was pulling boost and timing and dropping 10-15% power. Unfortunately I didn't get that printout and the Unigroup guys are away at the moment, will try and get hold of it on their return. So, looks like a healthy engine to start modifying and the only real area of concern is the w2a heat exchangers which the aftermarket has plenty of solutions for    
    • I maintain it actually looked really nice in person. So much so that I thought "No, this is illegal" but there it was, clear as day. I think we can easily call the wing and wheels/height to be transformative. Not saying it's better than the GR Whatever, or the 86, or the WRX STI or anything of that sort (the internet says it all bolts up so you can buy best of all worlds?) but it's still at least a thing and not nearly AS bad as people say.
    • That's less offensive than the previous gen.....except for all that ugly black tupperware around the edges. Blerck!
