interesting... wats the idle like.. i assume you'd probaly have troubles getting it down to 1000-1100 range with injectors of that size? than again.. the cams in that thing would be rather large and probaly prefer an idle around the 1200rpm mark?

Back to this question trent.. how does it idle with such large injectors?

Back to this question trent.. how does it idle with such large injectors?

like a bridgeport rotary (brup, brup, brup, brup) ..... real nice rotational lump... best sounding RB idle i have ever heard.. about 1200rpm.

nice! it really would be one hell of a ride from 5,000rpm to 6,000rpm it sure piles on a whole lot of power thereafter. good result mate. :cool:

PS, I drove past your house on saturday as I was down that way, I was going to call and drop in but missed you you non phone answering bad man!

RB20's aren't capable of that power.

Well, no-one's arguing any more!

A conservative tune of 277rwkw on 1.25 bar says otherwise knackers.....

Made more than Athid's white S15 on the same boost level........

BTW don't eat all that hat of yours at once :cool:

Christ! People just don't get sarcasm even when it's jumping up and down in front of them.

But now you've kicked it off, the car this thread is about 'should' run some serious numbers but neither the tuner nor the owner are on here claiming 9's!

Have a smile and a Coke and cheer the hell up!

:cool:

ahh bugger ive moved closer to the shop.....

Quite the opposite, champ. I see you have misread/misinterpreted what I meant. No matter.

My point was that it's silly to make assumptions and guesstimates without knowing or at least having a pretty bloody good idea at what the other variables are.

I don't exactly understand where you have gone with this. My comment was:

1000cc injectors should be capable of exactly 1200 engine hp. Considering he would only be making 1100-1150 engine hp...it's high but not impossible.

I said 'should be capable of'. I don't see how I have made an assumption or guesstimate? Someone was saying you can't make 1000whp using 1000cc injectors. I did a calculation and found that it could still be possible so pointed that out. No assumptions or guesstimates there mate.

If you really really want me to, I will calculate the exact amount. I will also list the common types of fuels including their burn rates and tell you exactly how many CC's each one needs to flow to make that much hp.

Or you can just accept the fact that all I was saying was 1000cc injectors could still do the job.

    • @soviet_merlin Thanks mate!  Nothing too major but will hold me up for a while. I've got lymphomas to get taken off the back of my neck and the middle of my spine which always conjures scary thoughts!  It sounds worse than it is. Yeah great, conjuring more rabbit hole deepening , just what I need! 🤣  
    • I'd argue the F50 kit I got is very good value. For ~2k I got the calipers (refurbed condition), adapters, pads, brake lines, rotors, and top hats. I think you'd be pretty hard to get Evo/GTR/350z brembos + the additional hardware for similar money. Used market for a pair of front calipers alone I've seen tend to run anywhere from $1500-2000 depending on condition.    That said, something like a GTR or 350z brembo is a lot easier to adapt to the Silvia. 
    • Is there a significant price difference between the Evo/gtr/350z brembos vs the F50? Looks amazing.
    • I was actually being a tightarse at the time LOL... My OCD is tickling me into running a 2nd 8AN Teflon hose all the way down and removing the 2x OEM hardlines. My other side of my brain is telling me to run 2x hardlines front to back (also acts as a fuel cooler, so win win).
    • As I mentioned in an earlier post, I had some trouble with the Silvia's brakes dragging back in 2023. I managed to sort it out then, but the same problem came back to bite me late last year. Just take a look at the picture – I had a feeling the handbrake was acting up again, and I was right. Anyway, I'd been wanting to upgrade to bigger brakes for a while. Not that the Silvia's brakes were bad, but it was more of a "want" than a "need", you know? It was funny, though – at the time, I couldn't find any Evo Brembos, 350Z Brembos, or GTR Brembos for a decent price (of course, tons of them popped up online after I already bought my kit!). I ended up going with an F50 Brembo kit, which came with adapters, brake lines, 330mm rotors, and top hats. The F50 Brembo caliper was used in a few other cars too, like the FPV. I also decided this was the perfect opportunity to ditch the Silvia's ridiculous rear brakes and that awful handbrake (some of you were definitely right about that!). I picked up some R33 calipers and all the necessary bits – rear drums, backing plates, and new hardware to refurbish the calipers. Of course, it wouldn't be a project without a few hiccups. Turns out the brake master cylinder was playing up and basically (to put it simply) keeping the brakes engaged. I had it overhauled, and after some adjustments, everything was working again. The whole process took a while, as you can imagine. To top it off, the front right wheel bearings were shot and needed replacing too. This is a rare occasion where I'm posting an update while it's all still fresh! These pictures were taken just this afternoon.
