changing to billet custom cams now due to tommie not making larger ones

and am upgrading to a direct port nitrous kit instead of a single

also upgrading ignition to Pro comp with CDI boxes

once its running within 3-4 weeks i will post new hp & torque graph and will hit the track

we are also making customs arms for the IRS and bushes to help the car launch.

Sounded like you needed the CDI with the spark not up to all that fuel.

Keen to see the on track result from such a beast.

the cams that are supposed to be in it was

270 @ 10.8 lift

but the ones in there are 260 @ 10.25 lift the supplier made a stuff up and i didnt check them before i got the head done

so the head had to come off again and i have to re do the Tappet clearances AGAIN what a headache.

The new cams will be around 280 @ 12.0mm lift

but i will have to see what is good for the combination.I still working out a exact set but i will post how i go.

The CDI boxes and new coils should hold up to 40 psi from what i am told .The 707rwhp dyno was done at 30 psi with poor ignition system and rich afrs

so hopefully i can making more power without pushing the tune.If i can make 750 ill be happy and just run the car at that and then if i get bored pump more boost into it.

i weighed the car and it weighs 2890 pounds with a full tank of fuel and nitrous so its not light but its not heavy.

With the car around 1310kg and 700+hp at the wheels should be good for the low 9's with around the 145mph region.

Would be awesome to see a good old Rb25 doing those kinds of times... Can't wait for the results hope you sort out your CDI System. Keep us posted !!

    • Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber
    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option 
    • You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
    • I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.
    • Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
