It will stop some crashing.

Go drive a 300kw skyline and tell me that won't increase your chances if losing it

You obviously haven't seen arab drifting on youtube.

You still can crash a 4 cyl Camry...

yeah any car can speed.

this was me in a 2L NA wagon all 105 Fly KW

germany09%2520021.jpg

training is more important that power to weight.

oh and earlier that day I had a 92kw FWD hatch at indicated 205!

yep, I remember getting a stock lancer rent a car over 200 with 5 people in the car...back mid 90s...

There will be ulterior motives behind this anyway...like raising more revenue from P-platers speeding..

you watch Kids all get excited about the new laws and start driving like morons...

then government will use this as an excuse to bring in mandatory GPS tracking or some bullshit....

They are just fishing, they're just giving a little slack before they reel us in further....

Not really,

I think it's just because soon pretty much all cars will have forced induction and there is NO WAY the government can look like they are forcing P Platers to drive older less safe cars

it HAD to happen

i always like the fact the holden cruze.

2 models the "sportier" faster was NA

the slower less powerful one a small turbo..

and which is the only one a new driver could have...

or you could drive the superseded Renault Clio Cup but not the less powerful mini cooper S

I could go on for days but yes how hard is it to find a small car released in past 2 years with no turbo varient,

It allows P platers to drive turbo diesels and weak turbocharged petrol vehicles.

However...P plater buys CA18DET S13...much easier to get big power out of these than even N/A V8, which I thought was the reason turbos got blanket banned in the first place except for those turbo diesels appearing on the unrestricted list.

Are V8s still banned?

So I purchased one of these which has an 85mm ID:

Not realising I need the 500-A022 model which has a 75mm ID. Anyone know how I can make it fit to the RB25DET? Would an adaptor or the like work?

Did you purchase the Power Intake adpator too? I don't think those come with one.

As listed here:

Oh and next time, save yourself the money and just buy a 3A racing pod off ebay for 30 bucks. They filter well and are cheap (as a piece of perforated cloth and some stamped metal should be).

Love them or hate them, the VF commys are a respectable bit of kit. Electronic park brake is fkin cool.

13.8L/100km average on LPG, that's close to diesel economy when you convert to dollars, isn't it?

    • 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?
