hit the bank then rolled? still looks driveable to me you big girl :teehee:

yep, managed to drive up the bank on the exit of a nice simple open corner, and barrell-rolled off the top... it probably was still driveable, but the driver had had enough!

Cheers G T R, i think i saw you at lakeside on monday. Does your 32 have the black rays rims with the red writing around the center?

Zennon: Yeah its still rb20 powah at the momment. In my first session on the sprint i ran a best of 1:20, next session i ran a best of 1:16 my next and last session was a best of 1:12.

On the national track i only had 1 session and my best was 1:37.

I could make a few excuses but i achieved what i set out to which was to

a) go as fast/hard as i can without destorying the car or oiling up the track and making a dick of myself on my first day out there

b) not come last :wacko:

Hopefully ill be out at the nissan day to help out but my work hours are changing and i wont have tuesdays free anymore :)

More RB20s out there the better. Though i read Gts30t is going to the darkside, if nothing else the user name change hints at something fishy. So think you shoudl stick with the RB20, your car will be much quicker with the money spent elsewhere on the car!

I post this a lot, but is pretty good indicator of how the RB20 can do the job better then anyone credits:

Comparison is both against RB25 NEO engines, both with GCG Hi-Flows, Bass Junky with same tuner and dyno and Poncams. Now tell me that the RB20 with the right diff ratio and turbo cant match bigger displacement RBs to the point where they are a huge hindrance.

LOL, stick with the RB20! Sooner or later you will ditch it, but shouldnt be on the must do list unitl lots of other things have been done :D

A hks 2530 makes about 210 rwkw. Need to get some injectors and have it retuned though, the guys at the last track day told me it was pinging a fair bit.

What times have u run around there?

I have only ever done the sprint track - and haven't been there in ages.. best i've had is mid 62's :D

    • 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.

    • 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.   
    • First thought is to use a ram mount (to hold the ipad) + windscreen suction mount. The arms on the ram mount can be as long as you like, should be able to position the ipad pretty well with that setup.
