im in paul - wouldnt mind doing the 1/4 mile again as well...

see if i can better my previous run with 320awkw & did a 11.1sec

Wow. That makes my 11.6 with 370rwkw look like shit. Having said that my best 60 foot was over 2 seconds.

I suppose that's what happens when you dont want to pop another box!

What was your 60 foot and MPH?

Thats interesting with the injectors. I have read that "whatever you think is enough with E85... go the next size up".

Next time we go I'll def give you and Marko a yell. Although I would love to do EC. Wakefield espeically with the power that our cars make I find you spend too much time in the lower gears. It did feel great grabbing 4th at 8500 hauling arse down the main straight!

With the box. Be careful. I broke mine on the street with not a very hard shift at all. It was only 11,000 kms old. Was not impressed. Now I have a OS box to try and break. Knock on wood that does not happen!

Maybe we should all go on the same night and have 3 GTR's getting booted out 1 after another. haha

Its a shame there's no ID1500, that would suit so many built cars out there!

EC is awesome fun, its definatly more suited to big hp cars like yours marko's and mine. On street tires there's so many nice spots for power on oversteer out of corners and the corners are all so open compared to Wakefield which feels a bit small for so much HP as you cant use it most of the time. The straight at EC is just brilliant, entry speed is pretty good then its just a case of slamming each gear at 8500rpm/9000rpm and feeling all that power shove you forward. mmmm, love it! You know what i think is best about Wakefield? That massive hill near Bowral on the highway driving there!

I think you'll be ok with an OS box, they seem to take a beating. Im being careful with mine, but when driving quick i still shift fairly fast and dont crunch it at all, im a bit worried one day ill be in gear then go full throttle then a sudden BANG

Im in for a joint booting from WSID. We can go one after the other in one lane just to make a joke about it. Do you think they'd kick us for slamming the brakes before the finish line?

My fuel system is almost there then. I have 2 x 044s to feed the rail and a walbro in tank pump. E85 looks like the way to go, shame we wont get it at the pump for a while here in Tassie...

Ah Tasmania, how many years was it until you guys got 98? haha

What injectors do you plan on using?

On your 11.1 did you launch it, or just engage at normal revs then stand on the loud pedal?

I should hopefully be getting "the LOLvo" back from Yavuz tomorrow, so I'll be aiming to comprehensively smash you all* at WSID. :laugh::whistling::P:happy:

*Disclaimer: this "smashing" will be purely on the basis of who has the most available boot space in their car, mmmkay???

:P

off the limiter, side step the clutch.

this was also accompanied with a 2nd gear burnout in rwd mode

that is right! capacity chews DC, i know when i upgraded these were my results:

rb26 with 700cc - making 320awkw & DC was 90%

rb26/30 with 1600cc - making 405awkw & DC is 65% (imagine with 700cc, impossible)

Yeah the 1500's would be right on! It will be interesting to see the difference between yours and mine. Same tuner, same fuel, same cams. I have higher compression but not as much capacity... but a ported head.

Ha. That hill. Yeah I will admit that it was quite fun going up that on the way there. A look in the rear vision mirror and you could see a fair bit of black smoke hanging about. haha.

Im not sure about the jumping on the anchors at WSID. "11.4 @ 94 mph". haha. But yeah. Mass boot out for sure. We just have to all get our cars sorted and tee up a Wednesday night.

i also heard that once injectors reach over 90% they start losing efficiency

Never heard of this before.

It's actually pretty funny, the amount of extra fuel flow you get going from 99% to 100% compared to 98% to 99%...

The amount of fuel flowing at 90%, is not going to be 90% of the CC rating. It's actually less as you have to take into affect dead time, plus the lower flow when the injector is first opening and then again closing.

Ah Tasmania, how many years was it until you guys got 98? haha

What injectors do you plan on using?

Will probably go with ID2000 just to have a little extra if I want more power.

It sounds like our drags may be closing so am looking for a cheap GTR to drop the engine into. :)

Well i guess time will tell, ive spent a bit of time on the exhaust today so that was good. I really think the stock porting will let it down but the reason i left it like that is to see just how far the stock head can go. Ive told Yavuz to push it as hard as he can, so it will be a good comparison

I can tell you some stories about that hill, none on here though haha

We can do the bootout after the dyno :)

Yeah smart move. The 1000's just wont do the job

Why are your drags closing? Is there a racetrack where the straight can be used instead? Eastern Creek used to do that up here. Anyway, you get Targa roads, thats more than enough ;)

    • If you are fine with China turbos, Maxpeedingrods makes a bolt on turbo. Ive had mine for two summers now and it seems to be holding up ok. 
    • Howdy all Im in a little predicament and wondering what everyone’s thoughts are? I’ve had my long block rebuilt and am in the market for a turbo due to my old one having metal shavings from crank bearings (cause of rebuild) go throughout the turbos oil lines and there wheel has a little play. I’m not really aiming for any power, just trying to keep it as oem as possible, but I can’t find a turbo that’s built for the stock ecu or find something that would be a standard replacement. Anyone have any ideas or suggestions 
    • How's everyone going? Just a shout-out introducing myself. I'm James, I live on the north side of Brisbane. I bought an R33 that had been left to rot in someone's front yard for 14 years. Apparently, it has immobiliser/fuel issues. Long story short, it's suffering from a seized engine, plus whatever else turns up once it runs. The car is pretty good considering it sat for so long. It pretty much died after being imported. It has a bunch of Jap parts and a full Top Secret body kit. It's painted Fiat Turchese Festival, or aqua blue if you're not French. Another project to throw money at!
    • 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
