Thats pretty impressive. Ive got an rb25 in my r32 so im no stranger to the 33 powerplant. Im hearing a lot about leaking BOV's I have a turbosmart v-port and I reckon its leaking. Do you no how to check for sure. Also having probs getting the spark plugs right. They are gapped 0.8mm NGK platinum. I reckon these are rated to hot for my motor cos it misses, especially as you wind up the boost. If i get this stuff right i should be able to do twelves no probs.

The heat range for the stock turbo is 6's or 7's. Gap 6's to 0.7mm or the 7's to 0.9mm.

It's easy to check if its leaking, because you will be able to hear an air leak at idle from there. Under boost the 'leak' is if the boost doesn't hold from early on in the peice. I reckon it's probably not leaking tho'.

If the motor is in good tune I'm sure you will do a 12 sometime. What has the car done so far?

Dam, for a moment there rev I thought you'd been to the drags yesterday and had something to show us

A dam good effort by that bloke nevertheless

I havnt taken it to the plex yet. I want to sort these issues out first and also some treads to hold to back end. I have the 4.3:1 diff ratios because it is an r32, and the extra torque low down from the rb25 means my first gear goes up in smoke with no chance. I cannot get first gear down on street tyres. Second isnt much better.

I'm hoping to pull my finger out and get a 12 with my stock turbo aswell this season. I have the power, all I need is the traction:D

I think he'll be able to take off in third and beat the whales with that screaming rb26 :uh-huh: :uh-huh:

[rev210]

[GTS-t VSPEC]

Well my hopes of doing a 12 with the stock turbo are ruined, but maybe an 11 from my new turbo:D
