my project is nearly complete.

engine has just undergone a rebuild and in addition ive added a GTR plenum with ITB to a rb25de+t

ill do a write up once its completed and tuned.

nice!

i'm also running gtr plenum on rb25det, one of the best mods i have done responds in amazing

Here our quick 6 month build going on 5 years. Hopefully finish it next year. It's a dirt circuit open wheeler powered by a 1jz. It will hopefully weigh 800 kg and make 400 hp to be competitive. Our racing is open so anything goes. We are going to run a venturi under the car and also GP style push rod suspension. If Anyone is SA keen to build a car like this or a saloon check out www.dirtcircuitsa.com. We are currently building a new track approx 85 km from Adelaide and it only costs $10 to come and race.

Cheers

Matt

Here's a video of the open wheeler class :-

Well seems my car is back in one piece...now to find a garage for a few days and bolt all the goodies back on and then go start blowing stuff up again :wub: 2010 is looking like it could be a decent year of motorsport provided i can stay in the country...

What i really want is a 993 GT2

  • 2 weeks later...

Yeah it's pretty damn cool looking isn't it Chris! It's a shame I'll be covering it in HPC coating...

That's a pic of Ian's (Juggernaut1) Full Race manifold, and I've just ordered the same one along with dual 38mm Tial wastegates and a twin scroll 3071R turbo to go onto the 180. Should give me a really responsive 300rwkw's or so, can't wait to get it on :)

how many laps till an sr flies to pieces at 300rwkw? or arn't you going to rev it?

16 or so.

mine has 15 laps of OP under it's belt at 285ish so i expect a bang next time i cross a start/finish line

Them's fighting words Troy! It's on like Donkey Kong... though the nuffer behind the wheel of the 180 might let the team down :D

2.4 hey? Sounds nice! What turbo are you running with it, the 25G?

There is some uncertainty at the moment with work so i dont know if i am back OS soon or hanging around so for the time being its same old same old std RB20 and 20G. But yeh, if the crank, pistons, rods, solid lifters, cams, springs, plenum, 25G, RB25 gearbox, new cooling setup and new fuel setup ever get installed my car should be a fair bit quicker :)

Still have to blow up the std motor though :ninja:

But....But....If you do all that it wont be an rb20 anymore......

Oh and have you taken that bloody GTR wing off yet?

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • 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.
