1mm oversize stainless valves

big springs and titanium retainers

10.2mm 280 deg camshafts

semi dry sump

gt45r turbocharger on stainless manifold

4.5inch side exiting exhaust

custom plenum

custom one off full spool diff center

all speedflow lines

hybrid cooler ( soon to be dry ice)

1220cc injectors in modified rail

1/2 inch fuel supply and return

fuel lab regulator

dis-4 cdi ignition

haltech E11V2 ecu

dual 044 pumps off suge tank with tomei in tank lift pump

jatco 3n71b 3 speed,fully manualised, transbraked, kevlar bands, clutches, machined clutch drums with full needle rollers, pro rachet shifter

5500rpm stall convertor

fully welded 6 point cage

solid mounted engine trans and rear end

100mm single peice tailshaft

engine and trans cooler

pwr radiator

and many many more things iv forgotten about

before i go i wana say thanx to steve at steves speed shop at albion park rail, for all hes help with the speedflow setup, roll cage padding and fuel system. if it wasnt for him id still be stuck!! hes contactable on 42577333. tell him dan sent you and im sure hel look after you! :P

NOW what im curious to know, is there anyone on this site with around 400kw atws, and what times have you run? iv been told this setup will make a fair bit more than 400 kws, but i dont wana push my luck :(

iv been told by some people not to expect anythn better than an 11, but then other ppl tell me it will be a mid 9 car. someone please give me a "real world" estimate!!!!

<br />what coils are you using?<br />
<br /><br /><br />

im currently using GM coils from a ecotec V6, but i have a set of MSD Coils here, setup for waste spark, virtually identical to the GM coils, but obviously higher output. I was quite supprised, as the MSD coils were only $270 for the set of 3 ( waste spark) and they are a direct fit into an ecotec.... if any holden drivers are reading......

<br />thats insane! <img src="style_emoticons/default/blink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":blink:" border="0" alt="blink.gif" /><br />
<br /><br /><br />

haha thanx bud. just wait til its finished and at powercruise this year!! ( hopefully)

myself and the boys from PDK performance are tuning it. we have had it tuned with the old ecu, no speedflow etc, and it made 800ish hp on avvy, 32psi peak, all the way up to 8500 then flattened rite off. its running 8.1:1 comp, and with the E11V2 i think we can see around 400-450rwkw without too much hassles.

( reason i sold my old ecu (microtech)was cos i was having a really bad run with work, lost my job and was without money. the first thing i was offered money for was my ecu LOL)

and im also looking at selling my engine soon to build a nice 26/30. if anyones interested lol

pm me when your going to race ill be keen to come watch hopeful i should have mind back together in the next few weeks

r33 gtst

3l bottom

scatt rods

arias pistons

custom cams

ported 25head

comedic head gasket

arp head studs

custom intake

ebay exhaust mainfoild

custom cooler

550cc injector

was a gt3540r but now has 0.8 front cover 66 front wheel 1.06 rear

was a jatco but i smashed 6 all fully built transbrake the lot

now gtst box

triple clutch

car has already run a 10.4 at 130mph with standard rods/cams on 24psi

So you changed from a jatco back to a 5 speed? hrmz..... interesting. how did the jatcos hold up? as in what times did you run with em and how long did they last?

Awesome driveline, this thing will definitely be an animal down the strip.

BUT you have failed to mention anything about the most crucial components for all forms of racing: SUSPENSION setup. What have you done in this department? Even with the right components, it's going to take alot of fine tunning to get it all working properly.

9's are a definite possibility, provided you can get the car to hook up off the line.

Good Luck! and keep us posted on your progress.

Yeh well suspension.. im still using the tanabe street dampers that are in it atm, they handle well, but will be s$#t for locking the tires up. not sure how exactly im guna tackle that issue yet. i just want to concentrate on getting it in the power skids at powercruise for the time being lol

they normally lasted about 3months car ran the 10.4 with the jatco after 60foot it felt like i was going to get milk manual going to be more of a challenge

yes will definately be a challenge getting the gear changes right! at least it will make you work harder for you 10 sec passes haha. only reason i went auto was so i could spool up, otherwise i love manuals to death!

set of coil overs(if you need some let me know i sell them)amd m/t 28x9s will do the trick

use a two step to spool it up i hope to crack in to the high 9s with a bit of nos

you sell coilovers ay? well well... how much would a setup for me be? basically want the front to lift and the rear to squat am i correct? wat brand? what service life etc?

ksport coilover we are just finishing doing 90/10 insert so the front will lift hard but you dont want the back to soft call me on monday for price at A&B motorsports 99059523 ask for paul :worship:

Edited by craked

i will definately call about those coilovers man! got me very interested!!!!!

btw im contemplating running a 150 shot of gas to get the thing spooling qucker, so i dont hold the transbrake too long. you rekn this is an ok idea, or will it just burn clutches faster?

    • Block bump. $400. As above cyl 6 needs bore or sleeve.
    • I would think making the argument that the travel is limited by a spring flexing against a spring perch as "the same method". Later on in the document they do state that the spring can't bind on full bump travel and cannot come loose in full rebound travel as well. (which is all very sensible). The laws are actually pretty sensible and reasonable. It's just that the people who enforce and check them don't actually read them or know them accurately. "Oh, coilovers? Instant fail mate. Don't even need to look at it." - Guy who will be instantly reported by me. There is probably merit to people who do get defected for height also get defected for the suspension in that state that allows it. I did never consider the people who are complaining about coilovers being picked on are also running around at 50mm off the floor.
    • I think given SAU's knowledge of E85 we can strongly conclude that 10% ethanol in almost any situation is entirely fine. Almost all of the myths against E85 were overblown, let alone E10.
    • From your link See bold text, is this referring to damper settings, if so that may a issue for "some" inspectors, I cannot see aftermarket coilovers having the evidence that "must be available that its functional performance is equivalent to the original" Maybe just remove the adjustment knows and hope for the best???? Meh 5.2 Suspension travel In all instances, modifications to a vehicle’s suspension must ensure the integrity of the system and not compromise the ride quality. At least two thirds of the original suspension travel should be maintained in both directions (rebound (i.e. extension) and bump (i.e. compression)), and rebound must be limited by the same method used by the vehicle manufacturer or if this is not practicable due to the nature of the modification, an equivalent method. If an alternative method is used, evidence must be available that its functional performance is equivalent to the original.
    • They actually don't - They adhere to VSB14 rules just like Victoria. The rules are against CABIN adjustable height, and it quite clearly states that the height has to be within parameters. I asked the VASS engineer to confirm this when I got my car engineered and they refused to engineer the coilovers because they didn't meet the requirements for requiring engineering. (mine are height adjustable.) People "Not wanting to bother" with "Actually reading/knowing/adhering to the rules" should result in fines and immediately losing the ability to issue blue slips and/or RWC's in Vic.
