old thread returns from the dead

check out some guys in perth called rage - radically altered gas equipment

they are doing direct injection systems for NA and forced cars

their Gen III conversion make 10% more power and only use 10% more fuel on lpg after a remap only

if I had a v8 i would be jumping on

sorry to drag up this old thread again!

bradkazz, i'm looking to put an rb25det into my r31 wagon, and run dedicated injected gas.

the hitch is, i'm after around 300kw @ wheels.

is this a possiblility?

oh, and did you ever get to upgrade your turbo on your r33, if so, what power did you make from it?

Unfortunately most of my time is being spent on customers cars, plus the skyline is my daily, so it's been on hold. 13.9s gets me to work. I have a new engine in my RX7 which should do 11 seconds, just finishing off the cooler piping.

The only problem with 300rwkw is the tank, they have an excess flow limiter. You may need to run two tanks.

sounds like fun. are there any complications with running two tanks?

if i'm removing the fuel tank underneath, and getting rid of the spare wheel well, i should be able to fit two under the back right?

might need to put a bashplate there or something tho. :)

G`day all you could look at the triple tank`s that are put on ford`s that hold about 90 litre`s,i have had a look at running this on my stagea s2,good luck.chuckie.

Apart from the cost there is no problem running two tanks. The triple tanks are all connected together and they only have one outlet, so unfortunately they don't help. Some may say I am ill informed about how to get the power out of a single tank, however I know exactly how to do it but the Australian Standards for LPG do not allow any modifications to high pressure components.

Hello All

Time to dig up an old one again.

I recently killed my LPG powered GTS by over reving, prior to this I got it up to 400rwhp with a GT35R. Sold after fitting new engine.

We never found a willing customer, so I now have a 96 R33 GTR and it's going on gas.

    • The rain is the best time to push to the edge of the grip limit. Water lubrication reduces the consumption of rubber without reducing the fun. I take pleasure in driving around the outside of numpties in Audis, WRXs, BRZs, etc, because they get all worried in the wet. They warm up faster than the engine oil does.
    • When they're dead cold, and in the wet, they're not very fun. RE003 are alright, they do harden very quickly and turn into literally $50 Pace tyres.
    • Yeah, I thought that Reedy's video was quite good because he compared old and new (as in, well used and quite new) AD09s, with what is generally considered to be the fast Yokohama in this category (ie, sporty road/track tyres) and a tyre that people might be able to use to extend the comparo out into the space of more expensive European tyres, being the Cup 2. No-one would ever agree that the Cup 2 is a poor tyre - many would suggest that it is close to the very top of the category. And, for them all to come out so close to each other, and for the cheaper tyre in the test to do so well against the others, in some cases being even faster, shows that (good, non-linglong) tyres are reaching a plateau in terms of how good they can get, and they're all sitting on that same plateau. Anyway, on the AD08R, AD09, RS4 that I've had on the car in recent years, I've never had a problem in the cold and wet. SA gets down to 0-10°C in winter. Not so often, but it was only 4°C when I got in the car this morning. Once the tyres are warm (ie, after about 2km), you can start to lay into them. I've never aquaplaned or suffered serious off-corner understeer or anything like that in the wet, that I would not have expected to happen with a more normal tyre. I had some RE003s, and they were shit in the dry, shit in the wet, shit everywhere. I would rate the RS4 and AD0x as being more trustworthy in the wet, once the rubber is warm. Bridgestone should be ashamed of the RE003.
    • This is why I gave the disclaimer about how I drive in the wet which I feel is pretty important. I have heard people think RS4's are horrible in the rain, but I have this feeling they must be driving (or attempting to drive) anywhere close to the grip limit. I legitimately drive at the speed limit/below speed the limit 100% of the time in the rain. More than happy to just commute along at 50kmh behind a train of cars in 5th gear etc. I do agree with you with regards to the temp and the 'quality' of the tyre Dose. Most UHP tyres aren't even up to temperature on the road anyway, even when going mad initial D canyon carving. It would be interesting to see a not-up-to-temp UHP tyre compared against a mere... normal...HP tyre at these temperatures. I don't think you're (or me in this case) is actually picking up grip with an RS4/AD09 on the road relative to something like a RE003 because the RS4/AD09 is not up to temp and the RE003 is closer to it's optimal operating window.
    • Either the bearing has been installed backwards OR the gearbox input shaft bearing is loosey goosey.   When in doubt, just put in a Samsonas in.
