Alright guys.

A recent topic: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Tuned-1002hp-R34-T88-t237291.html has got me thinking.... How much power can you milk from an RB engine?

I'd like to hear from others who have recent links to workshops or personal projects that state with proof their hp/kw ratings.

All RB's are up for discussion. 20's 25's 26's and strokers.

I have heard rumous of 1500hp monsters :banana:, but I've been unable to verify the fact.

It would be interesting to see what the greatest are using.

Project GTSt by GTaRT Racing in the UK.

RB25DET with T51R and all the fruit. Has run a low 9.

Actually that car is an RB26DET with a T62R and run a high 7 now :O

Heat Treatments are the most powerful I know of, "over 1200hp"... has run over 190mph on the 1/4 mile. Considering there are ">1000hp" GTRs which have only cracked 160mph, it must be making a fair bunch.

Are you sure you are not getting confused with the American version Project GTST?

Some other performance company in the US also has a project GTST which has run a 7.

UK car is black.

US car is silver.

I am 110% sure. Check this link, and on that page you'll see links for the progress of each year - you'll find you are thinking of the same car and that it has just had huge progress over the last couple of years. John went from GTArt to Abbey Motorsport and from RB25 to 26 when things started getting really serious:http://projectgtst.com/index06.php

Certainly has come along way! Why does everyone jump on the 26 bandwagon lol

In its form as a 25 did they think that is all they could squeeze out of it?

EDIT: Maybe i should swap my GT3076 for a GT3582 lol

Milking usable power and milking 10000RPM Power are two things.

Turn boost up to 2.5 Bar...get it on a dyno...add racing fuel and presto, you either have a

blown engine.....or you get a 1000+horse power figure.

Most of the vehicles you are talking about get a re-build straight after their run.

Not many here want to see if there motor will handle that sort of punishment :kiss:

I'm not convinced they gave the 25 a chance, they blew one up but I don't think it was a 25 limitation so much as oil flow and they may (not 100% so don't hold me to this) have had issues with the first 26s until they sorted it out.

GT3582Rs are an aweful lot of fun on 25s! GT30R is definitely more punchy, but above 4000rpm a GT35R starts becoming rather nuts - 20+psi and you're looking at a car capable of into the 10s with the right setup. Huge fun! But no traction on the road.

Oh yeah, Heat Treatments GTR will be tuned in a matter of days with its latest changes - I don't know if they'll make the figures public or not but if any indication is given I will post it. I suspect if RIPS maintains his madness and pulls it all off we may well see a new worlds fastest RB powered drag car record.....

Hahahaha nice, liking it so far - then? :O

I wonder what makes more power given equal displacement... the 2J or the RB? Guess all one would have to do there is bench flow the heads against each other really.

one thing is for sure. the RB is the fastest LOOKING motor ever made. its like Nissan windtunnel tested that thing, and the 34 rocker covers have a nicer finish than most people's cars.

      Wheel Sizes & Offsets For Skylines

      There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.

      I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      To re-cap, I bought: https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Lsailt-8G-Infiniti-Q50-Q60-2014_1601171829627.html?spm=a2756.trade-list-buyer.0.0.2cd476e9FTIlKE As you can see, if I bought 20 it was $653, but I bought 1 so it was $1,170. I was very tempted to buy 2 and resell 1 at 25% cheaper. @MBS206, I am not sure if they do a Kluger one, here is their list but it might be there under a global model name: http://www.lsailt.com/product/android-interface?page=1 Keep in mind these full android replacements have basically all the bits a phone does (cpu, ram, storage, wifi, bluetooth, usb interfaces) other than a screen (it uses a host), thus the $800+ cost. Android Auto screen mirroring is MUCH cheaper as it's just a cut down shell, input mirroring and output mirroring BTW I also need that "screen off" feature, it is much harder to see wildlife even if a dash is reasonably dark. Both the Fuga and V37 have display off buttons for night use, they just come back on for a second or 3 if you interact with it, eg skip a song.

      I use FCC car launcher. It has an option for different backgrounds, so instead of turning the screen off you can swipe 'up' to a black screen with no background/icons. (mine has the time on it only). It's kinda nice. Also lets you use gestures to say swipe to go to next song, etc.
