well its a bit of a hybrid actually...HKST51R housings upgraded to T62 spec...108mm compressor. So it looks like a T51R but goes like a 62. 1200ps.

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

so thats how the car got stuck with such a silly nickname

Nice work cant w8 to see this best run down the strip. how much power you hoping to have in it now.

need 900hp at the treads to run the 8.90 im aiming for.

the turbo should provide the power...if not ill give it a spray. :D

Just found this thread today also. Twoogle was actually an inspiration to stick with the twins for my 32 and hence the GTR-S's on it now. you defo had the sort of torque i'll be looking for when mines finally finished. You ready to cough up those cam specs yet. :geek: haha. Still interested to see how you go with the T51r though.

My Friend and tuner that owns the workshop I use up here in townsville is building a 26/30 running a brand new HKS t51r spl thats going into a 180 sx so interested to see what sort of power can be made from the big singles.

Good luck Paul and keep the updates coming.

We got the torque curve even flatter with the final tune using Sonoco. The option to upgrade to this new set-up at no cost was too hard to pass up, but i will always be a fan of the twin low-mounts.

The cams we used on the low mount set-up were big JUN's... :geek:

Humm big JUNs. That helps....haha. Well I've bought a pair of tomei 10.25 lift 260s but i also have a 10.25, 270 exhaust to try as well. What do you reckon? On the right track at all to make these hks's work well?

    • Pressure when IDLING, is meant to be 51PSi... So that amperage value needs to go up a fair chunk... I'd personally be factoring for more like 12amp at least on those runs, and at that point you need to hope the already there wiring doesn't drop you a volt or two, as that's a lot of fuel pressure flow drop off from 13.5 to 12V! Taking idle pressure of 51psi, means the pump will be drawing a MINIMUM of 9amps all the time based on your reading of the graph (3bar base, then allowing an extra 0.5bar for boost = roughly 51psi)
    • Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D    
    • Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D  
    • Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.
    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
