Congrats mate!

Amazing results

Get a vid for us to see how it comes on

Vids coming tomorrow... The full power runs etc were held up as the fuel pressure was dropping so they are doing a few things then running it up tomorrow.... I'm pretty pumped, the few people that have heard it said it sounds awesome!!!

Fuel pump out of flow? It would have to be close to the limit?

Yeah it wouldn't have much left in it.... But they said there is a restriction too, they are going to mod a few things and see if it improves.... Then just tune it so it's safe....

It must be an awesome feeling to finally have it going after 2 years of slowly getting everything done!

360rwkw is a shite tonne of power for a stock bottom end rb25det!

What size is your exhaust 3.5 or 4"? I couldn't see it in the build thread...

Thanks Lithium.... Real happy!! :yes:

Mitcho, the exhaust was a surprise, I figured it would hold the power back a fair bit so I unplumbed the gate etc, but it's only a 3" from memory.... The whole time I was worried but it didn't matter, apparently it may be the cause of the boost falling off and a bit of lag BUT it's a 90db exhaust so I can't complain!! :)

360rwkw thats a f**kload of power man, congrats..! I cannot see your sig from my iphone, is the engine completely stock or just the bottom end?

Completely stock with just Tomei Poncams.... It's all just bolt ons, awesome ecu and tuner and E85 working its magic... Stock headgasket, bottom end etc.... See how long it holds up....

Just read your sig, I've got 20bux on the clutch going first ;)

So have you taken it for a good drive yet? After this long it would feel like a new car, a very quick new car lol

I'm actually surprised it held up on the runs... Shouldn't jinx it as its got more work in the morning.... Tunes not complete, so no I havent driven it...

It basically is a new car, suspension, diff and power setup is all different.... And an extra 110rwkw for good measure!! :D

that's one clean looking engine bay, I like the kinda stock-ish look

It was my goal to make a high mount as stock looking as possible... It was only possible with the help from Alex @ Plazmaman and Craved Coatings, oh and Bronx for the airbox... It's everything I wanted... What the best thing is, I retained the quiet 3 inch exhaust which is legal DB so in 5 mins I can plumb back the gate and be legal.... ;)

Are you expecting any more top end from the final runs or is it just tidying everything up?

The boost was dropping off, so with the turbo and exhaust at their limit I'll be more than happy if it reaches that number again safely... The clutch would also be struggling I reckon...

Basically the runs will be to make sure the fuel pressure is safe as it was a concern I think... So glad it's with JEM tho, I know it's in good hands :D

The 3037 should be maxed at that power I think!

    • Thanks again, really helpful chap from alpha omega wanted to speak to me, little concerned if this is meant to he aero alloy/ airospace quality and car sitting on drive has caused this.  Airplane are subject to much more changing temp and conditions than road salts! My caliper, many other components much older have surface rust but never eating part of the metal   Had I not seen it , could have been a disaster! specifically on rear part of bracket coming off like biscuit will update on what they say, helpful people so far
    • January or Feb is it booked in for turbo fitment?
    • The MX5 has had some annoying rattles in both front doors over bumps So I installed fancy pants door bushings, which stopped all of the rattles with the windows up, but........with the windows down there was still rattles, so after some googling,  and a chat with MX5 Mania, I got some new door to glass weather seals, all the rattles, windows up, or down, are gone now Shout out to MX5 Mania, the weather seals were on sale, and when I head to Dural to pick the up they even fitted them for me for free I did see a "really" nice Blue NA sitting out front   and this Black NC PRHT that looked like it has sat in the sun for its whole life and never had a wash, the clear coat was non-existent, an it looked horrible, really horrible, but, it had a nice turbo kit with over 200kw, the thing went like a cut snake, bagging the rears through the gears and dosing like a champ 😍 But, as I've always stated, I am keeping my NC na, I'm happy with the current power the car makes In other news: MX5 Mania do a drive in drive out turbo kit, the only minor additional part recommended for boosting my car, as it sits now, is a oil cooler, and that bonnet vents are definitely required for track use Aftermarket version look a bit to "racecar" spec I wonder how Focus RS bonnet vents would look?????
    • Paint is only structural when applied to the outside of Chinese and Indian cars. Otherwise it should never be present between mechanical joints that were intended to be metal to metal. Pain slips, slides, cracks, compresses, and add thickness that wasn't intended to be there. It comes firmly under the category of "just no".
    • appreciated it thanks   There are threads on the adaptor. I rear re anodising but didn’t know it will reduce strength   re mating services needing to be flat/ not painted, why would that be? I am devastated as car been off for a year, fixed power steering then installed bm57 master cylinder and just before driving it this came up. So annoyed   worried and afraid to drive it, no fun caliper coming off
