Manifold all tacked up and ready to weld. 6Boost really don't mess around!

This minus the V-band.

Efficacy Of Standard R33 Gt-R Wing
2rismo replied to 2rismo's topic in General Automotive Discussion
Thank you. -
I'm trying to find out of there is any data floating around on whether the standard 33 GT-R rear wing provides anything in the way of downforce and if so, how much? Thanks in advance.
-
Kyle from 6Boost is making the exhaust manifold for this engine. Will fit a 5in dump without cutting up the bay and include the 6 x EGT bosses. Stoked.

The street car ran 10s pretty easy and needed a cage, GTR rear end, different suspension etc. It has since had 30psi jammed into it and it made 415kW. It will run 9s soon. This car was offered to me as a roller with everything already done. As hard as it was to sell the red car, I have a history with this car too so it was an easy decision.
-
Ratios in the 400 are almost identical to the C4 but with radial tyres I don't want to shock them at the hit so it won't be a problem.

I'll have photos of the entire process of adapting the head to the diesel block. Will also be machining up and fitting plugs for the head so there is no water near the deck at all. The block will also be filled to the deck. TH400 was chosen because the power I expect this to make will be more than what my prefered trans will take (C4). The aftermarket support for TH400 is now so strong that they can be made unbreakable at this power level and application. They're just such a known quantity.

Yes.

Precision Gen-2 8891 and 66mm gate: Enough assembly lube for 8 RBs: Dirty, dirty diesel: This is unnaturally attractive: Almost all of this is staying out. Anyone need any airbag stuff? All caged up: Lots left to do:

ASAP. I've dragged my feet with other pursuits in the time I've had it. It's all systems go now. I'd like to race at Sydney Jambo in March with testing prior.

Funny that! Bought valves, springs, locks, retainers, guides and seals today. Got a great deal from Fabre on the lot and it was all in stock. Head being disassembled tomorrow and the block arrives tomorrow to begin prep too.

Building this thing from a rolling shell into a dedicated drag car build. - 3.4L Spool stroker kit with drag I-beams - TH400 3-speed auto - Mickey Thompson ET Pro Radial tyres (275/60/15) - Goal is 7.xx seconds @ 175-ish.

So this sold a few months ago. Ended up making 415kW on 30psi. Will run 9s all day on street tyres now. Onto bigger and better build now.

VR/VS Commodore 5L cable. Bung for the firewall is even in the right place.

Thanks for letting me be part of a great day out. Was great to catch up with some old-school SAU-ers. Cheers, guys.

Nitrous is the best. Do it.

I always tell myself that it's too much trouble and that it's a pain in the arse but then I drive it and love it all over again. It's a sickness.
-
Been driving this more in the last six months. Think I'll keep it.
-
Cars, dynos, tracks... all have variables. I'd say your time/mph are about right.
-
130mph is strong and will be good for a 10.50. If you make another 1.60 60' happen you'll be bang on for a 10.65@128mph
-
Let me know next time you're heading out to race. If I'm around I'll poke my nose in and see if I can help.

1deg+ is a good thing. If you're running a street R33 GTST on 255 MT ET Street Radials with a 5-speed then you should be aiming for the high 1.5 - low 1.6sec 60ft region. What pressure do you have in the tyres?
