i rang united head office and buleen has it too... 208 buleen rd :ermm:

they dont know when the real roll out will be... just that it wont be every united....

so c'mon fellas.... lets all jump on it!!! the more people that run it the more places it'll be!

55 litres @ 1.40 = $77 - ballpark 391kms to a tank @ 14 litres per 100

55 litres @ 0.99 = $54 - ballpark 305kms to a tank @ 18 litres per 100

with the $23 you save you can buy another

22 litres at the same cost of 98 penis (at $1.40 per llitre)

which will give you a further 125kms

so total

$77 and 391kms

$77 and 425kms

This assumes 98 penis of $1.40 and $0.99 of e85

agreed.... but if it happens to be cheaper than 98 then so be it...

what i'm really waiting for is 98 to cost $3/litre and e85 like $1.50 lol

303 rwkw :ermm:

(the 311 didn't hit the limiter like the 303 one did, was probably 500 revs short)

turbo is still making good power @ redline and would have a little bit more to give if i bothered to fix the boost i'd say

was all hogwash basically Dezz

pros- more torque everywhere, more power, less combustion heat, less carbon buildup

cons- your car will drink fuel like a sailor on shore leave, which more than compensates for the price difference to 98

well done mate. :ermm:

You increased boost so you cant compare figures. how much power did you make on the same boost?

basically the comparison is from the point where both fuel's started to dye off...

both had more in them with more boost, but i'm playin it safe on the tunes :)

Excellent, might speak to my tuner.

Although latest tune was 253rwkw, boost dropping off by a few psi in the top end, so I wouldn't be expecting too much more from a GT-RS anyway...

i would... i'd be guessing 280rwkw dezz...

the timing advance you can get away with from e85 gives sooo much

what boost control are you running? what psi?

You sure?

I've never heard of anyone making 280rwkw with a GT-RS on a 25...I thought it was past its capability, but hey, I'd love to be wrong :ermm:

Blitz SBC Spec-R, 18psi but tailing off to about 16 (trying to find the problem)

you ever heard of a 2835 .68 making 311? :ermm:

yeah once...some guy, joey joe joe something or other

actuator maybe?

i'm running a spec s

Yeah that's what we're thinking, although you'd think HKS would make their actuator to hold the amount of boost the turbo is made for...

Spoken to another guy running a GT-RS and he said his is fine, suggested playing with the gain settings on the EBC, so I'll take that to the tuner as well...

    • Small update for the day... Turns out the intercooler and engine coolant hose kits are anything but complete....I probably should have counted better but it only really covers about half the coolant hoses in the car, it really just covers the visible stuff and pretends everything else doesn't exist (turbo water feed and returns and also heat exchanger lines through the 2 pumps and cooler) .In any case, I'm happier to have half reliable hoses than none, but a bit of a disappointment. Anyway...finger click (and 5 hours).....hoses in place, lots of spring clamps replaced with screw clamps, and engine coolant is on the pressure tester for the night.   Incidentally, upsized header tank is an Inifiniti factory option....not sure I'll ever do prod car racing in this but at least it is legal.
    • Just weld it onto the hot pipe. If you want it right after the turbo, put it right after the turbo. Or rip the comp cover off and drill and tap a hole into it.
    • hahaha glad I can rely on you two to go on a spiral at the drop of a problem! Some quick answers....the ducting is excellent top bottom and sides....everything that gets in goes through the coolers (noting the oil cooler redirects it out again, fair call if it is cooling 120o+) and the heat exchanger for the intercooler also has some scoops to pick up more than it's fair share too. I can't see going down the water spray track....no bueno for formal racing and a big risk for long rally days if you run out (plus I'm not clear if it is allowed there either yet).   Frankly, it must be possible to reliably put 400kw through a standard front end, the BMWs do it so I just need to work it out....I'm starting with reducing blockages in the way and adding some coolant capacity with a bigger header tank, flushing rad and making sure it was filled/bled properly (I didn't do the last coolant change); also taken measurements incase next step is a bigger/higher capacity custom radiator
    • wow, a completely stock GTR! I've got to admit, I have no idea from what you are describing....do you have  any idea where the "thump" comes from, and are you certain it is the HICAS light not something else like the cat overheat light?
    • nice work, welcome to the world of CAD! fabricating accurately in 3 dimensional space is beyond me....I almost always end up making something more than once...sorry I mean I extensively use prototyping
