yeah my bro in law ended up in hospital after too many rockstars, and another mate had to have meds for heart palpitations caused by an excessive red bull intake..But fark Trev, my best was Melbourne to Rockhampton in about 22hours solo. But you have smashed that..well done..

Though I have heard the western red bull is something special ;)

Yeah I prob wasn't far off those blokes on the trip over. My heart wanted out of my chest.was surprisingly calm behind the wheel but a fruit loop when getting fuel etc. I couldn't write my details when I arrived at the hotel and had to get reception to do it for me. Was the only time I've had more than 2 at a time.

Anyways not relevant to thread. Back on topic.

failure: Overheated - Cooling system was overhauled, Hoses, Waterpump, Thermostat and Koyorad Aluminium Radiator
comments:The price for this entry ticket has been very hefty and to be honest, I really didn't take into account what would really be involved when embarking on this journey!

Dyno graph and how many boosts? Sorry to gear about the overheat.... The stock engines are the way to go with E85 though so as Scott said have a spare one handy, i will eventually :)

Apologies, I mistook failure to be 'failures that have occured along the way'. It appears I can't edit the post at work, probably since we're still on Internet Explorer 6. So for now, as of Today, it's happy story and really glad to share this with you all. Can't wait till 5 o'clock to go pick it up and drive it for the first time at this power level.

It was pretty funny talking to the workshop yesterday. They advised they hit 290kw since it wouldn't make any more with the stock airbox. I literally told them I wanted to get into the '300kw Unopened 25 Club'. haha

Took a bit of boost to get there when compared to others (19PSI). The stock airbox was believed to be responsible. Eventually had to resort to making several holes in the airbox to open it up. Set-up looks very factory. Graph for below:

Yep there is, now take your GT37 and go join it haha.... Looking forward to following your build :yes:

Hi Tranman , I'd like to see your intake from the Z32 to the GTX3076R if possible because many claim its difficult to do .

Do we know for sure if the std GTS25T airbox can't support 300 RWKW , I still have mine and it has a cleanable Piper Cross element in it . I'd also like to see the box mods as I like stealth and I'm using the same IC as yours . The airbox in R33 GTRs must be significantly better if it supports more than 290-300 RWKW .

Good effort , cheers A .

Just make a flange on inside of airbox bolting to AFM, then run a pipe straight out the bottom to a ppod filter! Had that set up for years, passed DECC an everything LOL i even had the stock panel filter in place above the pipe

    • Because that’s not what any of them are building these heads or blocks for. It’s to hold over over 1000hp at the wheels without breaking and none of that stuff is required to make power 
    • Dort sounds above 3k rpm are dorty 🤣 I might krinkle black the alloy 🤔
    • It makes you wonder, all these people starting to make a billet replacement head, I wonder if any have thought about trying to adapt tech from newer engines into them. You're already at the full design stage to make a billet head... Why not really spice it up and had some more modern tech into the mix too...
    • Connect all the plumbing up properly. The actual worst part about having the turbo unable to actually build boost, is you can and likely would over soon the turbo if you drove the car (free rev while stationary isnt likely to manage it).   If you do have an air leak as Duncan suggested, you'll have a bad time as the AFM will be saying different to reality.   As you have had the engine out, I'd go over all electrical connections again. If you have a consult cable, plug it in, and see what the ECU thinks is going on. Did you touch the timing belt? If so, double check your timing on the gears is correct AND put a timing light on it while it's idling and see what ignition setting you have. Is the AFM you've installed the one that was in the car previously? You said you replaced seals, what seals exactly? What have you had apart?   From memory when I had my RB25DET with factory throttle, there was two plugs the TPS plug on the loom could go to. One would leave the car running like shit, the other made it work, I think one plug on the TPS area was for something else (an option). It's too many years since I saw that part of the loom to remember properly though.   Is the car idling smooth (as smooth as an RB can)? Does it smell fuelled up?   I have a feeling either timing in timing belt is off, or a sensor isn't right.
    • Theres still skid pan and motokhana days up in QLD at least that are $100 or less. The ones that are ran as "driver training" less so, they're expensive, but just normal skid pan days like SAU ran are still low cost. And thats one of the places I learned to be a lariken, purely by asking for passenger rides, and how people were doing crazy things. Reese gave me plenty of pointers back in the day for skid pan! And yes Duncan, I will never forget your pointers for track work. Especially after Neil got out saying "I am NEVER getting in the car with him again!" 😛
