Ah Huh, You just found my problem......... And i don't even have a computer at home

[chops]

Whats the go with engineering the emissions in Adelaide rb25/30,custom plenum and power fc. Im about to put 10 Grand in to my r33 motor this year but dont wana go rb25/30 if i cant engeineer anythink.

Iv also been thinking of putting the 10grand into my rb25det(internals only) but still would need to engineer greddy plenum and power fc. Iv also herd that you can have a larger turbo but need to stay in the Emissions range. Iv talk to a few ppl about what im looking at doing but stilll lost so i rang up regency but they said do the work and come down and show us but dont wana wast the money to be told i cant engineer it.

Unfortunately you're pretty much sh1t out of luck.

The way you will want to have it to drive it on the street it WON'T be legal anyway.

Any exhaust you will need to make any kind of power out of the thing won't pass drive by noise regs.

Any aftermarket programmable management is not legal, as it can be adjusted as soon as you leave from the testing.

Spending money on trying to engineer it would better be saved for putting it back to stock if it ever gets defected.

I hate to sound like a wet blanket, but a truly legal modified car is pretty much a pipe dream.

The hole engineering of my car has got me pulling my hair out. The last 2 weeks iv been reading diffrent forums,transport s.a iv talk to the local police and talked to the ppl at regency and none can give me straight answers. Iv just got a hole heap of numbers of engineers in Adelaide that are recognised by transport s.a so im hoping they can give me some straight answers during the week.

Yeah no one really knows. I wouldn't expect them to either; were not exactly a motorsport state.

[cruzin33]

Page 11 Emissions and Page 9 Engine mangement systems are worth a read

[cruzin33]

Also page 5 Engine Changes is worth a read

[Cubes]

With regards to engine changes.

The few vehicle standard blokes I've spoke to have said they can't see a problem with the RB30det as it is essentially just a stroked rb25. Providing no other work is done via camshaft changes etc total power output won't change. Torque will; an increase in torque they don't 'see' as a problem.

Was all very vague but you get that from vehicle standards.

[cruzin33]

With doing the rb25/30 i should just machine off the rb30 on the block lol

Went in a sti wrx stock turbo running 18psi today and shit they fly, but 18psi sounded a bit high for stock turbo tho

Honeypot road didnt seem that long in the sti lol

[Madaz]

^^ 18psi is fine but thats there max STI has a TD05 turbo

Mid to low 13sec pass out of a stock car is pretty damn quick. But in saying that the 'old' in comparison r33 gtst with an exhaust, fmic and ecu runs the same times.

[kralster]

Don't STi's run about 14 or so pounds stock?

[Madaz]

yeah i think they do Krastler but easily run 18

[sinistaGTR]

yeh they run 14psi stock...

And cubes thats why i cant wait for my evo lol..... just power fc, exhaust and some boost and your running 12s easy as (yes i know a gtr can do that too)

[Cubes]

Yeah but its something different Dan.

Something new/different to play with.

You'll probably get bored eventually and venture back to a gtr though. Couple of nice little mods and 350rwkw.

Then bang there goes third gear. lol

[Madaz]

lol Dan would bang 3rd before mods started Launch'o'rama
