just for anyone who was wondering and there seems to be alot of questions about it.....you can start and run your car between movies...which is about 15mins usually...and just incase the battery still doesnt make it they have dudes with jumper packs come around at the end of the movie.....and if that doesnt work i have a set of great jumper leads in my car also. nothing to worry about...im a bit of a drive ins whore as bass hill is 2 mins from my house =) and also you dont need to clip the wire to you car as they transmit a pretty high quality sound through the radio without static.

....and if all else fails i know a guy (100% blind at that) that lives right on the boundary fence of the complex (whom is able to sit in his lounge room with a good radio and listen to the movies everynight) who owns a chicken farm so we could always just "borrow" 500 dozen eggs and have some errrr "fun".

Guys... on the radio this morning the police where saying they have cracked down on street racing and will be targeting people who drive cars like those in the fast and the furious especially in a group.. Great!

Lets just take it easy, the police wont bother us if we behave. If they come up to us I will talk to them, tell them we are just out to see a movie and we are a social group. Its all good...

Never fear, Carlo's here! :)

Seriously, if we do run into them just tell them we're out to see a movie and having a bit of fun, the rice is just to make fun of people who mod their cars tastelessly and we're behaving ourselves the cops would have to be complete c**ts to try anything...

..uhhhh news just in, apparently they are... :bahaha: (just kidding officer!) :)

Well...

1. The movie was quite............ different. They actually decided to try and have a plot this time. As much as it surprised me, I think I enjoyed the first one more.

2. Dundan and Kelly need to be hung, drawn and quartered for defacing their skyline. Wait for pics........... Unbelievable :P

3. Great turnout guys, but I don't know why you all hid in the corner, I parked right in front of the screen and had a great view :D

Had a top night guys! Nice to finally meet some of you...

How good was the rice efforts of Majanal and Duncan...? Fully Sik! I'll send my pics around later...

Hopefully this is the start of more 'stupid idea' nights! :P

Oh yeah, and the movie was pretty good too. A lot better than I expected. Especially liked the Skyline nailing the Supra at the start!

      Yeah nice idea, you mean to suction it to the gauges? I hadn't thought of that.

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      A few suggestions: Do you have the option of retarding your exhaust cam gear to bring the power band over to the left? VCT would be turned off after you make peak torque, you see the power/torque will decay faster with it left on all the way to the limiter Once VCT is turned off, you'll find the motor will take a bit more timing being ramped in Send its mum, more boost! Of course, depends on your exhaust pressure.

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      I was back on the dyno again yesterday after completely revamping my methanol injection system. I was making 440kw at 19psi. Great, this is more then I was making last summer with my old meth system at that pressure, and I figured it would be smooth sailing up to 30+psi. We continued increasing from there and by 25psi, I had only hit 455kw. Dyno sadly lost utility power at this point and I left. We seemed to be on course to hit the same power wall as last summer (477kw@27psi). This is a built RB25 S1 stroked to a 2.8. Built and ported head with Kelford 272/262 cams. Precision 6466 Turbo. Tuner last year believed the power wall is a mix of RPM limitations (Hydro lifters/Limit set at 7600RPM) and fueling. With my new meth system, we're seeing zero knock now but it still won't go up.  What else can I do at this point? Here's my train of thought.  - It's clear from the dyno graph that I would easily make power to 8500+RPM but I'm limited to 7600RPM. I could risk increasing my limiter, but hydro lifters have me worried. What are my options here besides going NEO head or solid lifter conversion? I'm rocking a 1.05AR turbine on my 6466. Would dropping down to a .84 help shift that power down in anyway? - We're only seeing roughly a 30kw difference at the top end with VCT on or off. Is this normal? I want to confirm VCT is working properly. - Should I look into other cam options?  - Should I just keep increasing boost and see if she wakes up later on? I would expect to hit 600rwkw around 35psi with my 6466.
