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?

    • Price seems pretty good to me. Also seems a hell of a lot cheaper then buying another vehicle that only ever gets used for towing.  I'm a long way from you mate, I'm a couple of hours out of Brizzy. 
    • New [400]Z, they're available in manual and you don't have to worry about parts scarcity. 
    • Just planning to have the wiring neat and hide as much as possible.
    • The sodium acetate, mixed with citric acid, doesn't actually buffer each other. Interestingly though, if you used Sodium Acetate, and acetic acid, THAT becomes a buffer solution. Additionally, a weak acid that can attack a metal, is still a weak acid that can attack a metal. If you don't neutralise it, and wash it off, it's going to be able to keep attacking. It works the same way when battery acid dries, get that stuff somewhere, and then it gets wet, and off it goes again breaking things down. There's a reason why people prefer a weak acid, and it's because they want TIME to be able to be on their side. IE, DIY guys are happy to leave some mild steel in vinegar for 24 hours to get mill scale off. However, if you want to do it chemically in industry, you grab the muriatic acid. If you want to do it quicker at home, go for the acetic acid if you don't want muriatic around. At the end of the day, look at the above thumbnail, as it proves what I said in the earlier post, you can clean that fuel tank up all you want with the solution, but the rust that has now been removed was once the metal of the fuel tank. So how thin in spots is your fuel tank getting? If the magazine on the left, is the actual same magazine as on the right, you'll notice it even introduces more holes... Well, rust removal in general actually does that. The fuel tank isn't very thick. So, I'll state again, look to replace the tank, replace the fuel hanger, and pump, work out how the rust and shit is making it past the fuel filter, and getting into the injectors. That is the real problem. If the fuel filter were doing its job, the injectors wouldn't be blocked.
    • Despite having minimal clothing because of the hot weather right now, I did have rubber gloves and safety glasses on just in-case for most of the time. Yes, I was scrubbing with my gloves on before, but brushing with a brush removes the remaining rust. To neutralize, I was thinking distilled water and baking soda, or do you think that would be overkill?
