Can we have stockest looking OMGWTF power making car?

I have a sneaking suspicion I know which car will take that one out,but feel free to better the effort! So far,from a local car,549 AWKW is the mark to beat from something v. neat,v. tidy and v. streetable IMHO. Go stealth!

If your talking about JUN I wouldn't call that a street car.

Define street car.Anything turn key reliable,able to make such a figure on pump fuel,can run to the shops and back without fouling plugs or overheating,of reasonably legal ride height,able to contain more than one person...dunno;missed anything else?

Yes but does it actually do all those things I wouldn't think so.

Street car in theory, yeah ok - but in reality I doubt it sees the street that much.

It's a beautiful car I would probably do the same.

It does do those things,and then some. At some stages it's daily driven to work and parked outside with the nasty weather and all ;) ...so,in my eyes,it's open to that particular award of 'normal looking,BIG power'. Although,in fairness,CEF11E said even standard looking when you pop the bonnet,so the cars I've been thinking of would lose out on that count.

There's a few other cars with slightly less(and one with more)power that could be nominated,but they'd either be too showy from either the outside or under the bonnet for the stealth idea,but there's many other suggested brackets they could be placed in...

I'm more ticked off that my car is not further down the build process to be able to be seen... :) Then again,those that know it already know where I'm heading :) !

Here's what 460+ AWKW looks like without high mount twins or a big single...Unfortunately,it's not an ACT SAU'er,but from the outside is a very(VERY) neat 32 without the bling most people put on their rides.

Just thought I'd post up a nice piccie for some inspiration... :)

I know where yours is heading Jayce, but I dont know if you'll have it all done by the end of this year...

But incase you do, we'll have a 32 V-spec2 with pearl paint and big power category just for you. :teehee:

Well anywho, thanks for the enthusiasm guys, I hope we'll get this off the ground for next year cos I'll definatly be entering the best 32 Gtst category!

I know who gets my vote for the biggest power in the non skyline bracket. And it is a true ACT built and tuned car and thats ESP with their WRX 515kw and BMW with a supra engine 530kw. Maybe you could have price brackets aswell as most people don't have an open cheque book for what it takes to pay someone to build them a 500kw plus car with all the goodies.

Thanks for the pics of Paul and Staceys car Jayce. Still reckon you can't beat the twins for the street.

In agreeance there;massive performance from Dan' and Glenn's stable! And yes,P + S's 32 is one of my all time faves! Hence why I'm sticking with twins!

The unlimited vs limited budget idea is taken on board,too!

Cheers,J;have a top New Years!

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.

      The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?

      I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.

      I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.

      Yeah, I would have said the same. It makes me suggest that there are other things wrong, such that the ECU is totally unhappy with the broken sensor. The only other thought here is that maybe it is shorted, which might cause a different issue to the typical "disconnected" sensor.
