I went to the autosalon but i could not wait around all day for the best car at show to run so i missed out on the run.

Looks great and congrats on the win!!! Good to see a RB win a event ;) woulda been different if Miss 2j ran... Anyone know what is up there? =)

Cheer's thanks for the support...

Miss 2j is busted...catestrophic engine failure.

While we did go on the dyno, our car is no dyno queen. We'd be happy to match "miss 2j" up against our beast at the strip...12.2 with her husband driving is far from impressive, and a 1.36 around Wakefield is very poor...Stace runs 11's with only 350kw, and im sure a standard Supra could beat that wakefield time quite easily. A car with a 1000rpm power band does not really "float my boat"....But if thats their thing good luck to them, we rather enjoy what we have built than look at it in a show. Don't get what i have said here the wrong way, as both Jodi and Ross are lovely people, its just a little tiring people comparing our cars all the time. They built theirs to win show trophy's we built ours to race.

The engine build is on par with RH9, JUN, DEVLISH, GTR700 and other monster's that have come out of the CRD garage, the only thing stopping this engine from making big dyno numbers is the size of the turbo(s). Nothing more.

Dave...may take you up on the CDI offer mate.

i understand where your comming from and i agree totally. Its just a show car and nothing more. Just a shame that it keeps blowing up..... would cost soooo much money ;)

Keep up the good work the car looked great!

rumour has it the last bottom end was a $30 000 Titan Motorsports item from the states.

ouch!

ahh how the hell did they manage to break it then? somethings obviously not right with their combo,,,

i heard the reason why it cost soo much money was because they made her change the management system. the engine only need pistons and a head to fix from the last blow up.

I wonder if we will see this car out on the dyno again.

yeah maybe the compression is too high or the plenum does not flow correctly ;)

more like ...way too much timing caused excessive heat and melted pistons, valves and head.

anyway...this is our thread...not theirs...lol

They are up to their third tuner now i believe. Its a definate setup problem.

What power does this 2j make? or did make before it blew?

Cause those times say pretty pathetic, or the driver/s are.

it was around 750 - 800rwkw

Back on topic now - just answered the questions.. no more about this 2j.

It wouldn't be the first time a Supra has run a 12 but I bet it was at eleventy billion mph...

Paul, gimme a buzz on the mobile if you want to run at Supernats.

2rismo, thanks as per phone call...ever thought of being a puppeteer...you certainly know how to pull a few strings.

turbo's HKS GT-RS items

capacity 2600cc

static CR one thing ill be keeping to ourselves (im sure you understand)

What about you promise to tell us when you reach a certain ET? I'm dying to know.

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

Which is why I wonder why people don't call me Abo Gob...

Looking good Paul. All the best for tomorrow and the rest of the assault.

    • You can’t see much on the other side as the lcd is there I don’t think it’s the same as the m33 beside it as the markings on top is not the same was hoping someone had a good quality photo or if they just happened to have the unit in hand, quickly take the cover off and take a photo to clearly show the marking on top to identify the diode   the unit is currently with an electronics repair shop so I can’t take another photo at the moment hopefully they are smart enough to know if it’s a zener diode or not
    • I'd be very surprised if you can buy new OEM mats. But if you can, I want some too!  Do you have links to the variations you found? Also, where are you located? I found that Nengun is happy to list items to purchase but when you do buy them you'll get an email that it's actually discontinued. As far as I know the variations in floor mats are different colour schemes as well as automatic and manual having a slightly different shape. The automatic ones fit into a manual car without issues, but I think you'd have trouble fitting the other way around. I have photos that show the shape difference if you care. FWIW I bought sets of used floor mats in decent condition at yahoo auctions.
    • Hi 🙋‍♂️. Just bought my Unicorn but the interior need some minor work so it would match my expectations ;). I noticed it is hard to get used oem floor mats in good condition so i started to dig if there's any chance to buy set of new ones. I found two websites - nengun and amayama and it looks like one can still buy factory new floor mats in Japan, but thers a small issue. Some mats (i assume genuine, oem ones) are marked as G4900 and these are "discontinued". The ones you can buy are marked as G4911 but i have no idea if these are also oem, made by other producer or some lower quality replacements that looks entirely different. Can anyone help? 😃  P.s. there is also some strange indication - 0V005, 0V015 and 0V505. Any idea what does it mean? Would appreciate any help with this 🙏
    • Hi, Marek here 🙋‍♂️. I finally fulfilled my longtime dream - recently bought Stagea and now waiting for it to arrive in Poland. There's only few of these in my country, and one of the owners  recommended mi this forum as a source of all the info i'd need since now i own one  so here i am.  
    • Version 1 aluminium airbox is.......not acceptable No pics as I "didn't like the look.....alot" Even after all my "CAD", and measurements, the leg near the fusebox just didn't sit right as it ended up about 10mm long and made the angle of the dangle look wrong, the height was a little short as well, meh, I wasn't that confident that Version 1 was going to be an instant winner I might give Version 2 another go, there's plenty of aluminium at work, but, after having in on and off a few times, and laying in the old OEM airbox without the new pod filter and MAF, there may be an option to modify the OEM air box and still use the Autoexe front cover and filter.... maybe This >  Needs to fit in here, but using the panel, and not the pod, the MAF will need to fit in the airbox though> I'm thinking as the old OEM box and Autoexe cover that is sitting in the shed is just sitting around doing nothing, and they are relatively abundant and cheap to replace if I mess it up and need another, it may well fit with some modifications to how the Autoexe brackets mounts to the rad support, and some dremiling to move it get in there, should give me some more room for activities, as I don't want to move the MAF and affect the tune Sealing the hole it requires to stick it in the air box is simple, a tight fit and some pinch weld will seal it up tight  I am calling this a later problem though
