lol a lot of help there ! I don;t have a car at moment but can arrange a hire one easy enough IF i find anything worth doing. Last time in brissie I was over for Jambo, visited Mecury and a couple random importers. Surely there is more to do ? Sunday sess could be ok. Though at this rate sounds like I'll be scaring the locals in my bathers during the day and then the strippers at night.

Hey all, Visiting surfers next week for work. Got a Free Sunday arvo and Monday day. WTF should I get up to ? Looking for car stuff mostly, hence on a car forum . Not so keen on the tourist stuff muesems, parks, zoo's etc. I already found the local strip club so sorted there also hehe. Sort of things like supercar hire, track days that are on even good workshops to check out ?

If you check the t04z thread, brockas posted up a gt35 vs gt2835 twins. I think you would find you will be better off with a nice single. I mean really, how fast do you want to go ? If you want a dyno queen by all means then go ahead Also you will ideally want a gtr rear end with diff / axle combo or at least GTR axles.
-
Thats a perfect comparison. You gain up to 60 hp more through the low - mid range. For a top end trade of of about 70hp. I actually think you would find the two cars down the 1/4 would be very simular in times. You have the big advantage though as your car would be more driveable on the street / track. Be interesting to see once you have the issues sorted out. How the top end power would compare on the same boost levels. If you end up only trading 30 or so top end HP for a midrange gain of 60hp you will be well ahead.

Holds quite a bit more actually. Around 500-600ml more then a standard sump. I will admint it would have been nice to extend the other side. Not sure what you mean by "less effective then before" .... ?

Also notes on mounts. I found the RB25 mounts different to rb20, although been told they were the same. So something weird there. I used the rb20 ones. A note on that, if you use the rb20 mounts the oil filter will be dangerously close to the mount. Make you modify it to clear. Seen two cefiro's split the filters and lose there oil due to this.

Use the power steering pump from the RB26. Get a custom power steering line made. You can just see in the below pic the custom line and swivel setup coming up to the PS pump. Should cost you around $100 ish to get done.

I've run feed from the block and returned to the front. Makes the most sense to me as the hot water then goes straight into the radiator not back around the engine. Also one less water line to worry about breaking and having to replace at the back of the engine. Doing that in the car ... what a F*kin nightmare. Oh and unlike CERB's ... My 26 has run a time

3lit3 32 - I think has a point as its the same one I was trying to make. (leaving out the experts comment - I stay switzerland on that one) Dirt garage if you change the dynamic of your engine's power. You can make less hp(peak) and run more MPH. I have done this with my car on more then one occasion. I am sure you already know this though. I am not disputing that HP(peak) can be indicated from mph, knowing weight and 60ft. Its just as 3lit3 32 said its not a perfect relationship.
-
You need to also take into account the 60ft. Its a good indicator of wheel spin which will up the mph. Then also Peak HP means nothing average HP is were its at. I have run(all diff cars) : 12.1 @ 116 mph 1.8 60ft in 1180kg car 280rwhp 11.4 @ 117 mph 1.5 60ft in 1140kg car 320rwhp 11.4 @ 119 mph 1.5 60ft in >1200kg car 400rwhp 10.89 @ 127 mph 1.49 60ft 1200kg car 420rwhp 10.35 @ 128mph 1.45 60ft 1130kg car 455 rwhp As you can see the MPH to HP translation is not that simple. Especially when you look at the two 11.4s one car with 80rwhp more. One was a peaky sl_ut other had power everywhere. Weight also played a big part.

Another GT35 example 455 rwhp @ 17psi on a stock RB26(just ecu + injectors). Car has run 10.35 @ 128mph. I actually have a t04z as well but am finding it hard to justify upgrading when there is so much more left in the GT35. Graph scale is a little off redline is actually 7800 so move everything back about 200-300 rpm. Also boost controlled with $50 bleeder.

Hi, Just thought I might share some more RB26 into S13 insight. When I got my sump converted I got them to add on an extension. Holds a fair bit more oil now. Also got a custom sway bar made by the selby guys. Its the right shape but they made it sit way way too low. I have to send it back to get it re-done. See pic -->

No they don't. About the only time you can claim an engine death is if you get the workshop to build, install and tune it. Also sounds like your oil pump might be on way out or sump pan is crushed up to the oil pickup. Anyone put an oil pressure gauge on it ?

Well seeing as most of you seemed to miss the point I might as well claim the title until i hear otherwise. Cheers to those that posted times -

Can we get some specific numbers ? It might come down to tenths -
Fastest 1/4 Mile Unopened Rb26 In Australia ?
Butters replied to Butters's topic in Engines & Forced Induction
Know of any specifics ? Cars / people or times ? I have a vested interst in knowing -
Just wondering where the bar is set in the way of unopened RB26's in Australia ? When I say un-opened I mean stock cam's, cam gears, oil pump and etc too. Just bolt on big turbo(s), inejctors, ecu and the like. Don't care what car its in, hey even a rail. The timeslip list on here is pretty thin. As far as I can tell the HPI list all the 26's are pretty much full house. Same deal with the Full boost lists. So uncracked Rb26 owners, whats your 1/4 mile PB ?

An Update. 17 n a bit psi and a little bit more time on the dyno. Cheers ANDY !! RPM scale is prob 200-300 rpm out as limiter is 7800 not 8000 ish. Still stock internal unknown km engine with stock cams n etc. I love these motors
