Yeah,

Lots of stress on the body when you're putting out 1000hp....especially in an older & fragile R32 chassis.

Chances are the panel gaps will get warped.

To achieve 1000hp with an RB20, you're going to need to stroke out the block to 2.4L (go with I-BEAM conrods as they can be lighter yet attain the same strength as a heavier H-Beam) and cement fill the block for high boost application,then strap on twin HKS GT3040 turbines, convert to solid lifters, full E85 conversion and fuel system to suit, modify the cylinder head as necessary (including a set of drag spec camshafts) and optimise port design etc etc, and lots of other stuff.

Done.

Thanks been waiting on this answer.

Will exclude the cement fill XD.

lol at euro being monopoly money.

HAVE YOU SEEN SHITTY AUS DOLLARS?

IMO admin should set up the site so that when people write "negative nancy" it auto changes to "negative plattsy" like it does with 'kunt' and 'flammin mongrel'

i like this. +1 for this idea.

also shit post should be "an ianjb" from now on. :woot:

No worries.

Cement fill is likely to be necessary for a 1000hp RB20. It is called "block filler".

It gives the block more rigidity, as at high power output the cylinder liners will experience distortion while you're laying down the power (e.g. as they are surrounded by areas which actually can be considered a weak area - e.g. water jacket).

You can still run water cooled setup if you fill the block to the top row of frost plugs. But for best support you would block fill it completely to the top, but you won't be able to run water cooled anymore.

if you don't, will it create seal gaps?

In all seriouseness Jem did a 540 kw rb 20 once but it was running nos to spool the stupidly large turbo and then it exploded on the line at the drags from memory

If I don't the liners will just crack?

I was thinking without nos.

He was serious about the cement, its definitely required.

I am using CNC liners as well really need for the cement?

hard Bloc helps stop the bore walls flexing out under power stroke allowing pressure to bypass piston

thanks

wtf is a cnc liner?

I meant bore wall

Helps overall rigidity also which is a big variable when talking 1000hp.

Grout/cement filled block will be a must.

that to, I've seen how much a 26 block twists with 700hp, can only imagine how much a 20 block does with 1000+hp

I think ip has watched too many youtube videos on cnc lathes

Op I can sell you one start at 80k

Ppl are overestimating this.............

80k?? AU or EU???

    • Not really, no. Anything you would do is easily reversible.
    • I would like more noise related info for my truly uneducated guess  Does it do it at idle or when revving, clutch engaged, and disengaged? Does it only do it when the car is moving? I've heard "similar" noises from a clutch pack that left the chat room, and CV joints that have chewed themselves out But as Matt said, how's the yokes, tailshaft and centre bearing going after their last little issue Fingers crossed it is something simple  Weird noises make me cringe 
    • One other question, is there a chance that changing the idle speed can lead you down a rabbit hole and is the reason the tuner didn't touch it? Reason I ask is because if that's the reason the tuner avoided it then I probably shouldn't be touching it lol.
    • Pfft. As if I'd ever point a high pressure washer at my car.
    • The nature of my commute has changed. Way back then it was traffic lights all the way, for ~28km. It sucked. When they finally stitched the expressway together I could do a good 15+km of it at a steady 80-100 with no stopping. That alone has gotten me down to flat 10s. Prior to that it was mid-high 10s. I can't remember the delta that I saw when I got the idle down. It was only ~150 rpm, because the idle speed was never terrible, but for the delta in consumption to be noticeable it would have had to have been at least 0.2-0.3 L/100km - which is not to be sneezed at when it comes for absolute free. It's only about 50L per year, but that's ~$100. A few extra pizzas is always welcome. Note that I have a record of every tank of fuel that has ever gone through my car except for a handful put in by someone else, like my mechanic. I can show you the difference between stock RB20 and tuned RB20, stock RB5Neo and tuned, winter and summer fuel blends, winter and summer fuel blends when the ambient temperature is not appropriate for the blend, working O2 sensor, blown O2 sensor, boosting f**k out of it and frightened to boost it because it is pinging, and so on. OK, I probably can't do all that now with 100% clarity - but at the time when any of those things were in event, you could see it in the records. There's 25+ years of simple tank after tank records, so you have to look for landmarks to work out approximately how old any single record is. What's really important is the meta data and that lives in my head.
