awsome result dude..

you definately heading out on wednesday? would love to see this run

all the best

Wednesday has been canned due to the weather...Wednesday next week looks the goods now.

What is the weight of the car when you go to the track?

Cheers

the last time we raced it weighed 1474kg...without the 106kg driver...so a 398KW GTR to go 10.3 sec's weighing 1580kg with a synchro box is a fair achievement.

we have stripped some weight out of it since so it will be interesting to put it on the scales at the track next week.

unfortunately i still weigh over 100kg

^Hahaha

What does twoogle mean anyway?

it means nothing...

our number plate reads TWO.06L...meaning two point six litre.

some people when making up custom plates use a 6 as a G

my mate one day was looking at the plate and asked us "what does twoogl mean"?

we had a laugh and explained to him that it meant 2.6litre...and that the 6 was not meant to be a G but actually a 6...

he said nah stuff it im now gonna call it "twoogle"

this name stuck and has grown to even been included in the drag records lists and in magazine articles

its weird how some nicknames evolve and stick

lol time to start running the 1\4 mile instead?

Nice figures anyway, Got any videos of the dyno runs or passes on the strip?

Good luck with Paul - great setup !

I've just got the Cosmo back from getting a few things fixed - so might even go out tomorrow night !

Thanks mate...very keen to look over your creation...well done and very fresh to see somethingout of left field.

Dont be too keen for tomm. night ...its forecast to rain.

we have put off running ours till next wednesday.

wow. thats a very impresive power and torque figure. how does it drive off boost? much loss dow low compared with the old setup?

oh pretty please can you post up a comparison dyno graph of your old setup and this one?

ps. after i find a gearbox (smashed inputrshaft)its valvetrain im doing next. 1.5bar and 8.3k on stock springs isnt probably very smart of me...

looks good :yes:

the sweet spot seems to be just on 4500rpm or 130km/h

looks like it comes on like a freight train

hope all is well and the mrs's is well

yeah max torque is @ 4500rpm but look at the overall torque spread from 4000-9500 its unbelieveable on the road.

Stace is good and the baby should be here in the next few weeks

Dave a comparison graph will be available next week.

Holy shit. (Says a big single owner)

Paul, you are nuts :P

What gearbox have you got in there?

hehe she's pretty mad (you wont see a torque curve like that with your big single)

ive love to give you a drive steve but that would be unfair to your underwear...lol

its an OS Giken 5 speed.

ill bite haha

not a lot in it here

post-3878-1133516522.jpg

awesome work...but to be fair...i was just giving steve a little niggle

wait till mines tuned and running some decent boost and then ill go the dyno "pepsi challenge" with ya.

what is your set-up?

main point that was being made in the 1st post was that so many people think to make this sort of power, a big single turbo is the answer...and its just not so. Even low-mount twins can deliver if set-up correctly.

    • Yes I can see how that would put you off HFM, especially with the price of good quality brake fluid. From what I understand it as you say the BM50 is the standard BMC for a R32 GTR, I must admit I would like to go far a Genuine Nissan BM57, but lack of cash prevents that at present. With the price being so close between the genuine BM50 and BM57 a BM57 New it seems a better choice as you gain that 1/16 bore size with the BM57, I would be interested in how much difference you feel with the BM57 fitted. I am going to take SteveL's advice in the short term and see how much actually comes out of that proportioning valve vent and save up for the Genuine Nissan part. Thanks for clarifying the HFM failure
    • Thanks mate. I just got the post inspection 1/2 done from state roads when the starter motor packed up, either that or the car alarm system is having trouble.  OEM part number 23300-AA112.
    • Hi, I though I was coming to an end in finding a replacement starter motor for a rb25de neo. I came across a starter motor from Taarks and a message below stating: Direct fit. 11 Tooth count. All below part numbers have been superseded to 11 teeth. Can some body shed some light on going from 8 teeth to 11 teeth apart from 36-month / 25,000 km warranty for passenger vehicles to 12 Month Warranty. Compatible with the following Nissan part numbers: 23300-20P00 23300-20P01 23300-20P05 23300-20P10 23300-20P11 23300-AA111 23300-AA112 23300-AA300 23300-08U10 23300-08U11 23300-08U15  
    • Low battery? Maybe check capacity? I know first-hand, on BMWs if your battery drops below 80% capacity, it starts causing strange issues.
    • 8.5 +37 = should fit rear, but I think it'll hit on front. What you want is low 30s/high 20's front, mid 30's rear. That 17" screenshot you posted looks good, I'd run it on my R32 (but that's long dead now). For tyre sizes, my rule of thumb is: 8': 235, 9": 255. But that's just my opinion. Nismo sizes: 18x8.5+35/18x9.5+38 is a good starting point.
