That is huge, interesting. I did a conversion a few weeks back, only got a 12 odd kw increase from 348 to 360 at 19 psi. This is with all supporting mods, big exhaust, -5's, fuel system etc. Pulls like a train it's awesome and im happy but looking at some of these results it's not a big increase.

For those on straight e85 tunes how do you go about sourcing fuel? Do you buy it in drums or fill up jerries?

Only place I know that sells it is in Rozelle which isn't a close drive.

EDIT: Also misread that dyno chart, 370kw is crazy!

Minto united for you then freind

Minto is straight E85 not eflex?

Also, back to my earlier question about the pods. Would $200 be spent better on buying a stock airbox or a pod enclosure?

EDIT: How much e85 would you expect to go through at a track day?

Here is the latest -7 and e85 result. Std rb26 with camgears and r32 gtr airbox.. Saw no gains over 22psi..... but a decent gain from 312rwkw on pump 98.

That looks very similar to a -5 result. Interesting!

what setup and ecu?

Best E85 servo for you would probably be newbridge rd :)

Pretty sure Newbridge Rd is just an eflex. Minto isn't too far though and it's pretty much on the way to Wakefield and Eastern Creek.

I won't get an eflex tune unless I absolutely needed one. $2k is bloody expensive!

This is the 2nd -7 + e85 50kw gain i've seen in the last 3 months, just shows that e85 is really needed in some cases to maximise the set-up potential

That first one (if it was usmair or whatever), didn't come close to the MPH to back it up, in fact the MPH showed it has zero gain, where the "dyno" said there was 40rwkw...

I'd like to see Trent's result hit the strip and pump out a MPH.

As with a few other people on here actually... It seems some have pretty "hefty" increases that seem to defy what everyone else are getting.

(not having a go at anyone here either, just wanna see more info).

    • Getting Dangerously close to being ready to go back in the car. Rockers in with clearance castings now (and a quick check with the USA for the torque settings for the larger custom bolts) Covers and ported FAST Manifold sitting on there. Not fully tightened down as there's some clearancing required for the water pump with the earlier LS1 water pump styles. Example of the clearancing needing to be done: The body has to be ground a little but I'm struggling finding an actual piece of it. The later variant of water pump resolves the issue as the manifold was designed around it. It only came on the VZ LS1 in Australia, it got a different pulley for Gen4 motors. (it also costs $450... vs... $0).

    • Doing some height adjustment on front suspension on a v35 and noticed this. The passenger side looks correct. So wondering what's happened to the drivers side?
    • Oh...I have the electric mirrors as well iirc ...they're in the same state as just about every other R31 door mirrors, with the 3 plastic screw towers broken/cracked in the plastic molding. All the interior is 'dry', so the mirror switches etc likely all work fine. Some pics below of the trimmer pieces ~ looks to me like previous owner, painted chrome finished trims with black paint ...ergo, the chrome underneath is likely a-ok... ...starts to look yukky posting stuff like this, how much did it cost in fuel on your last sortie up this way?...me just thinking aloud, borrow someone else's 4cyl to cut costs, come do your own pick'n'pull like before to save me some bother...hehe.. but whatever, I'll just earmark bits I know you want, because the way this is all panning out, I'll be able to retire the R31 from daily duty at long last, replacing it with a Subaru wagon I'm lining up in the wings...ergo, my attitude towards the donor pinny shell is starting to wane a bit, and I'm more than happy to help you out there... Like you say though, no rush...and I'll guarantee we won't be moving too far from this locale at any rate 馃槑
