I was disappointed both times I've done 1000m at an airport. yes 3rd gear wheelspin is funny. but no it's not really much quicker than 400m.

perhaps this surface was OK, I did both mine on Goulburn airport. Lots of gravel and diesel.

What's the situation with fuel up there? Last time I was in Temora I couldn't find anything better than 91 and even just driving from Canberra my VII uses half the tank getting to Temora.

This is how you sort that problem :thumbsup:

So yours on top and you may crack 1200rwkw :thumbsup:

Between 3 here (2 x dash5 GTR's at 400ea, one single RB29 S15 at 450) thats 1250rwkw. Plus Dave who's probably 400 again once he's tuned, 1650rwkw, another GTR here who wants to go we are over 2000rwkw without a drama.

Bring the forms

Did you see our bathroom at Deca? So many Jerry's if you wanted to use the toilet you had to rearrange them. Shower also meant rearrange. You could only get just inside and there was no way the door would close without, you guessed it, moving Jerry's. Fun times. Now, forms

I forsee the V8's doing a bit better on this then the turbos...

Generally speaking, watching the 1/4mile runs and then the 1000metre... The V8's will lose out on 1/4 mile, and walk away with the 1000M run...

    • Pete knows these cars well, he does my car too, if he was concerned about the traction arm length for your use he would have said so. Do you have adjustable bushes in that arm, maybe he got enough adjustment there (or maybe the bump steer was not material for your use of the car)
    • Hmm. Yes. I should have been clearer. 1000s for Haltech, for extra headroom. 725s for Nistune. You might even be OK with 640s, but if the possible power ends up much more than 300 rwkW you will run out of headroom on the 640s. That would probably be OK and a signal to not push it to that sort of power with Nistune anyway. At that level you probably do want to be thinking about engine protection functions. Oh, and all of that presumes 98 only, not E85. Well....the 1000s would allow you to run E85 at ~300rwkW territory, again, maybe sort of running out of headroom. Hard to tell with E85 - depends on the tuner as to how rich they like to set it up.
    • Yes.  The only scenario I can imagine when the answer isn't yes, is if you drive like there is highway patrol behind you at all times.  If your car currently runs, enjoy it and keep saving. Better costs more, keep saving until you can budget the better ECU. It's worth it.  Nope. Plenty of us making >300kw on unopened motors. Mine is unopened and makes about 350kw if I turn everything up, its fine (lots of caveats here, how the car will be used/abused, how long you expect the engine to last between rebuilds, how has the engine been maintained prior to coming into your ownership, etc etc).   
    • Sorry just wanting to clarify, at this power goal, which should I be going? Also, More info regarding suspension, the rear upper camber arms were used to get the camber back to i believe around -0.5 ~ -1 degree (@ Road and Race in Rydalmere), I forgot the exact figure, but ALOT less camber than what it came originally which was like -2.5degrees. Are the traction arms still recommended? The bilsteins from SydneyKid, they've got 400lb/in fronts & 275/in in the rear, revalved to his specs. Intercooler, I'm just having a look at some on Rakuten.jp and some other japanese sites. Might get something from back there, GReddy, Blitz or HPI, all crossflow. Looking at roughly $450-$500 AUD + shipping... Theres not many choices except that chinese branded Justjap unless you go for blitz return flow. Yeah, only downside with Haltech is the price ahhaha, so expensive, and with all the sensors if I go that route... $$$$$ yeesh. Are headstuds/gaskets needed for <300akw?
