don't see it there, sorry

you mean there's a window for each runner that exits from the billet collector and into 2 'wastegate collectors', and then from the 2 wastegate collectors into each wastegate?

Each runner has a waste hole. Spilt pulse billet collector each side has three hole that exit through one waste gate same for the other side. The three holes total the area of one gate. The exit of the gate is then vented in the dump as a Venturi

You seem to have blind faith in johns ability to engineer the car, it's almost religious...

You keep comparing to f1, rally and indy car racing with their research and development, with the costs and success that come from it.

But realistically you are carrying out research and manufacture. You come up with a idea, think it's the best, tell everyone it's the best without even testing it.

The reason why the motorsport teams get things so right is because they get so many things wrong and then head back to the drawing board, I just hope for your sake you spent all this money on something that works first time!

I have to agree with you mate. And personally, I think action speaks louder than words. Lets see when this project gets done and put it to the real world and see how it does will prove more than anything. Put it in WTAC against some of the best EVOs and s2000 and rx7 out there. Or take it to japan and run it against MINES R34 GTR as that is said to be the ultimate response machine. The real world will judge where this car stands :)

Yes the ultimate result will be in action and events and even a personal run in the car 8).

Wtac is going to be one of the events I'd like to enter. And want to race it down the quarter also.

Yeh I remember talking to you about boxes before.

U have gone so far and done some amazing things engineering wise so you may aswell top it all off with a great box aswell.

Should bring out the best of the set up.

Thats CHEATING!

For some reason I thought you were going with a 2.8lt. Not 3lt. Unless your planning on running a 2.8 crank with SR20 rods as a high deck... Doubt that though, its hard to beat displacement.

Hey Ian .

No it's not the 3L it's the os88 os giken sequential gearbox.

    • I am currently going this route. I am curious how much horse power you put behind the cut bell housing? Collins was telling me I am going to crack it and bluh bluh bluh. Because I didn’t buy the custom fly wheel from him. I am looking for somewhere around like 500 hp
    • Forgot to mention that these are the before pics when I first got it!
    • Thanks @PranK for the updated member status, much appreciated! 👍🏼 Now, about those pics… Unfortunately I could only find ones that I took in the dark. I was soon to discover that underneath it wasn’t in the best shape, but it was mine and that’s all I cared about at the time 😆
    • Oh, and only having done this task yesterday, I've now driven the car ~60km since, and while it is hard to avoid placebo effect and confirmation bias, I reckon that some annoyances I had with the way the car has been behaving have improved. Which....kinda makes sense, I guess. If the bushes were really stiff and resisting rotation, they would have been contributing to the effective wheel rate. And if it was more so on one side (which it was, because one side was worse than the other) then.... you might imagine that the additional rate would be asymmetric, and potentially even different between compression and rebound. And so... the car has been twitchy at higher speeds - like freeway on ramps. It really shouldn't be. The wheel alignment is good and there are no (other) known problems elsewhere in the suspension. But at 90-100 on a long sweeping ramp, tiny steering wheel motions would make it feel like it wanted to rear steer. Quite nervous. At lower speeds it would heave about in a manner that it didn't use to. Didn't want to put power down, etc etc. Now...seems to behave better. Am going to have to concentrate on the various corners where it has exhibited weirdness, on the rare occasions when I can get a decent run at them without Methanial getting in the way in his D-Max/Ranger/LDV Van/etc.
