-_-StRyDeR-_- Posted September 20, 2010 Author Share Posted September 20, 2010 yeh, everyone hears up and down reports on every single workshop, its just natural, but they have done everything right by me, even went and picked up the car for me (2hrs away). ill run it in then go back and get the next lot of goodies, probably buy tess's old car also, and get the body work ready for the motor to be thrown into.

NITTO R34 Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 We can't wait to get it off its run-in-tune CJ!! And, the E85 tune Extremely responsive set-up with the 30 bottom end & 35R, we're very happy with how it turned out! Tess's 32 is still here, it's a complete rolling shell Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/220157-cjs-engine-build/page/3/#findComment-5474290 Share on other sites More sharing options...

DVS JEZ Posted October 12, 2010 Share Posted October 12, 2010 too much torque for the clutch? did you use the federal RSR's on the dyno this time? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/220157-cjs-engine-build/page/3/#findComment-5493439 Share on other sites More sharing options...
-_-StRyDeR-_- Posted October 12, 2010 Author Share Posted October 12, 2010 not sure whats wrong with the clutch, the car didnt even make it onto the dyno, it hasnt even seen 500km's i dont think. nor has it seen any abusive driving. the gold coast has been in wet weather for the last 2 weeks so iv hardly been able to put any load on the car anyway, so the tyres are acually more slippery then the old nagnkangs i had on there.... dont know whats gone on.... but feeling pretty annoyed... will post photos of the clutch when we get it out.

-_-StRyDeR-_- Posted May 11, 2011 Author Share Posted May 11, 2011 ok so a few months later... New twin plate in the car, little harder to drive then the Jim Berry but feels good at the moment. car is sitting on about 490atwhp, just finished driving it from the gold coast to melbourne and back again, EVERY tank of fuel i filled up at 420-440km and the fuel light wasnt on yet... so fairly decent fuel economy for the power it has... Did a bit of a highway squirt and lost oil pressure at about 7,000rpm in 5th gear... light came on just as i grabed the key to shut it off, just as i went to turn the key pressure came right back up to normal, scared the hell out of me, so now getting rid of the N1 oil pump and putting a ASR 8.5L sump in there with a Nitto oil pump (purely for peice of mind). also doing a E85 tune and hoping to get close to that 600hp goal i originally wanted, will be a stretch out of the baby 3540 turbo with .86rear... CJ ps... anyone on the goldcoast brisbane area own a supersnake mustang 2009+ or a 2010+ srt8??

-_-StRyDeR-_- Posted May 15, 2011 Author Share Posted May 15, 2011 Dont ask about the clutch. end of story. bit of a squirt yes... umm...on track of course. reason for the road trip...i always wanted to drive my car along the great ocean road... just once, was a great experience but now that it is done i wont be driving that car down there again. DVS32R - Also tried Filling the Sump up an extra 1L of oil...didnt work. Riley - because iv gone for a new turbo and E85tune, which was always the plan, so i just had it all ready for when these come along.

-_-StRyDeR-_- Posted May 18, 2011 Author Share Posted May 18, 2011 Yeh its 2x 044 fuel pumps with a 2.5L surge tank. car just pushed out 630rwhp using the new GTX turbo on e85, still the 35series with a .86rear on it, 27psi. think thats the max the little .86 rear can do, as we tried 2-3psi more and didnt gain anymore power. still...630rwhp is a great effort for the baby turbo! big thanks to the guys at mercury!
