77,7mm spool, 9.5:1 compresson ratio.

Head work, 1mm over valve, unigroup cams. Should be a nice little package. when its done... Who knows, if you count these as the same as -5's it might be the most powerful car on -5's :P

I should start up a public build thread for it this RnR

Have done a little research RE exhaust wheels.

M7655 56 47.5
M8260 67 58.8
gtx2860/-5 53.9 47.0
gtx3071 60 55

Want to see one of the M8260 exhaust housings in person now... thats massive for stock location.

I might hit someone up locally and see if it would be possible to put a gtx3071 into the m7655's i have, if you could that could make for a hell of a lowmount setup...

Wow that is average for a race car... but was that built to class rules?

Was built to class rules, IP

Then after an incident with the IP committee the restrictors where removed and it got put in SS

That was near 10 years ago so I may be a bit off with my memory plus there was no E85 back then either

yes, and quite the opposite, it made amazing power and won the national championship.

Imagine a poor old RB trying to breathe through twin 27mm intakes :(

Oh ffs just run some mph will ya.

This dyno numbers crap is just bullshit.

Run mph and then you will know that your dyno figures are just full of shit.

Show us the mph or just shut the fk up.

Just out of interest what setup do you have and what does it make on a dyno and MPH has it runs? Not having a go or anything just interested you feel so strongly about this.

I forget now but I posted it up in some thread here about 1 year ago.

From memory it was on par with every other -5 98 RON setup, nothing out of the ordinary, dyno was about 350awkw and it ran about 125mph (from memory) with a slipping clutch and stuffed transfer case.

So yes, it back up my dyno figure there or there abouts. I haven't had my TO4Z setup stretched to a full tune yet due to little niggly issues, so I haven't run it down the strip but I have played with a few of my mates VLTs and BarraTs pushing 130+ mph and my little 26 was more than capable up until my cooler pipes blow off.

Anyway, the thing is I am old school so apart from a dyno graph being useful to the tuner for tuning purposes, to me I don't give a fk because mph is where its at.

To me, when a dyno sheet is used to brag about numbers it is just wank factor, unless it is used to compare a previous setup for the purpose of analysing and discussing mods, but even that is less reliable than comparing before and after mph to measure engine power output.

There is a thread somewhere that people talk about setups and ETs and mph.

At the end of the day if you have the power you say you have, post up your slip and if the mph backs it up I will applaud you and shut the fk up myself.

Gtx 3071's in a stock low mount position IN stock style housings would be a bloody disaster IMO.

What rear housing would you use? The compact 0.64 rears? YUCK!

What about the tight/compact piping that would be used?

Why is there never any thought into rear housing sizes? You can't just keep throwing "billet big wheel" in the front and expect it to get out the same size drain plug. It's bloody crazy!!!!!

I was suggesting that they could be put into the tomei Rear housings. They are a tad bigger, so could help or may overwhelm it. Was just throwing the idea out there.

See attached comparison between the gtx2860's and the Tomei's

Think we've had this discussion before lol. I've varied 5+mph with same power and in my opinion theres more to drag racing a manual GTR then making x amount of power and running x MPH. Powerband, driver, gearbox are big factors. Now if the car went out and trapped 120 obviously somethings up but if it went out with a slipping clutch stuffed transfercase and ran low 130's on a terrible pass i have little doubt with a awesome clutch and a brandnew transfercase its a possibility it could run high 130's on a perfect pass with the same power. Now a automatic GTR that uses all of its power efficiently thats a different story.

Exactly. With the power he is quoting he should be up around 140mph, even with a crap run he should be trapping 135+ regardless of his ET. Even when running mine I got my best MPHs when I eased off the line with a 2.8ish 60 footers.

A GoPro and time slip is all he needs to prove any of his out of the ordinary claims..... 700 whp from -5s on a 26, pffft, rubbish!

That or a data log with a pull from 3k rpms to redline in 4th gear. If speed is calibrated correctly you could easily determine HP with car weight. Anyone claiming "highest HP" surely would have an ECU they could data log with.

The R33 is actually the one you can import. It's a bunch of dumb rumors that make people think you can't. Here's a list of cars that can be imported.

Yea it can be imported, but it cant be driven. You still have to conform to EPA standards. Good luck with that on a rb26dett. So it will never be road legal. The only 33 and 34 that are legal are the ones from motorex and they were given a bond release. Now there is two r33 that has been truly legalized and that is the r33 LM edition under VCP-32 clause.....and it took them 2 years to do it. You have to get it converted to obd2....which if I remember right adds another 30k or so to the price tag on top of importation and the car. Plus it can only be done by one company that has the nhtsa confidentiality grant. Waste of money IMO when you could just wait a few more years and get one no questions asked. People have been importing all GTR's(skylines) for the past 10+ years now lol. They are not legal though. Just because it has plates doesn't mean its legal, that's a state issue. Legality is a Federal issue. The easy part is getting the cars on shore, the hard part is making them legal. It's not the same as importing a 32. You just find one (that is legal) send it over, get all proper forms filled out, and register it. Simple as that. I had mine delivered to my house and legally registered(state and federal) and insured in 30 minutes. If r33's were legal and that easy to obtain, importers would be selling them just as much as the 32's.

Anytime soon that this car will be getting to the drag strip? Im keen to see what time it does

You guys talking about my car or the camaro?

I weighed mine at 3175 lbs (add 190 with me in it) and dyno'd ~460 rwhp on pump gas. Assuming 15% loss, I'd say the numbers are verified with a 529 HP at this boost and displacement on BW Match-bot software.

Here is a video of a little fun run with me and my brother in it (add another 185 lbs) - final weight would be around 3570 lbs.

I can pull a log of a 3rd or 4th gear street pull for you guys. Still can't get the medium boost actuator to hold over 16-17 psi on top end so I'm moving to the high one shortly to see if it will hold 19-20 psi on pump. Car runs very very well considering. Have not touched Haltech base timing yet.

Tires are 255/45/17 redline set at 8,000 for now.

    • Nope, but they are definitely one of the default choices. Well established.
    • Has anyone used > https://performancecoating.com.au/  
    • Haha actually I did join back then under a different email address,  I couldn't re-activate my account so made a new one! I didn't post much anyway so not missing out on much. Amazing to see how the value of the cars and parts has changed over the years, also ACT section appears to be dead now. 
    • Thanks... It's in pretty good condition overall, probably due to not being drifted/tuned however being a daily driver has taken its toll. Had 100k on the clock when I got it, up to 180k now. Unfortunately it's not 100% dent free, it's got a small dent on FLH side and broken indicator from where I hit a small kangaroo at high speed. If you look at closely at pic #5 you might spot the dodgy trailer light repair my old man and I rigged up as temporary repair! - It's still there due to a combo of needing the car as daily driver and then too lazy/busy to fix properly. I've a couple of other minor accidents accidents as well but nothing major. One required a new front bar and unfortunately the smash repairer ordered the normal gtst one and not the aero bar. Needed the car back asap so just went with it, regretted ever since.
    • I can't believe that anyone is foolish enough to believe that the base maps are for any other purpose than to drive the car up onto the trailer/truck or gently creep it to the dyno. No matter how good they are, they can never be any better than the factory maps**, and only the foolish trust those on a significantly modified setup. **Yeah, yeah. I know there's also the difference between factory maps being fixed to certain injector sizes and MAP/AFM/VE relationships, and the likely aftermarket ECU base maps being better able to handle the sorts of changes that would render a stock ECU dangerous, like different sized injectors. But let's just ignore that for the moment, because the principle is still the same.
