My mate had one of the base twin Cosworth Mercs. In the below pic you can see it parked next to my car at Wakefield years back. It was featured in Zoom years ago. Sad day when he sold it...

Needs less Nissan and More Alpina tuned 3.4L BMW six

Nice car, lost its appeal to me when I saw the RB25 though

That's awesome Dane. If only I didn't have a stupid money sucking GT-R I'd seriously consider it!

Well along with my friends old Evo I, a school mate of Doughboy had one ... in HIGH SCHOOL! They guys name was Kamal, Jamal or something. Fancy having one in 1992 as a Year 12 student! They were cooler then in my eyes. If you have to do trashy 80s then there is noo ther car....it has to be an RS500, every day of the week!

Nah, that Jamal fella had an EVO III Cossire Merc. He was two years older then me so was one of my brothers mates. He used to use it to cruise past Santa Sabina Girls school and let the car do the hard work for him. I dont think an RS500 would have helped him as much considering back then every CRX had a Cossie rear wing

That's awesome Dane. If only I didn't have a stupid money sucking GT-R I'd seriously consider it!

I couldn't imagine the looks you get driving that on the street. Super cool though. Was a great car in GT as well :P

stop the press - progress in rx-7 town!!

engine and gearbox in, turbos on and motec wiring is next.

also, i've sold the red rx-7, but replaced it something else that'll be fun to prep once the silver 7 is up and running...

Awesome - I was just talking to Brisby about this one a couple of days ago

Such cool cars.

Just catching up on this thread was going to mention those 190E 2.5-16 Evo2 - one of my dream cars.

Not sure what its like in real life but man is it fun around the ring in GT4.

    • Ok I get you. But isn’t the butterfly intake a headache with the +T?  see this is my plan so far but please advise me into the right direction.  Nistune Ecu, 1000cc Bosch injectors, TD05 or TD06 Kinugawa turbo using stock rb25det exhuast manifold, walbro fuel pump unsure of model I think it’s 450/460, spitfire coils and sparks to suit and a R35 MAF sensor and boost sensor.    I was thinking maybe do a cheap eBay plenum $400-500 or try find a stock det neo intake. I think I’d port match it so it’s getting the full capacity but open to advice please.  Thanks 
    • The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG has not responded to my emails so far since purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.  
    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
