looks like 2 rb's to make a v12 (similar to 2 v8s which makes the bugatti w16) LOL

those turbo's will keep the rear tubs warm, no need for tyre warmers

lol! I'm not sure what you're on but they need to raise or lower the dosage! NOW!!! :domokun:

There are folks in the US who have on Supras and Hondas that I have seen with gains over normal GT4202Rs. I know someone who is in the process of putting together a twin GTX4508R setup, though thats just silly.

Would that be on a nissan V8..? VK56 maybe in a rail...? :worship:

The rest of the page just loaded. lol

Rob is mad. :cheers:

Could any of you blokes let me know at what level the std RB26 conrods tend to break.

I'm pushing high 300's with my GTR and the tuner said that on e85 the torque produced could be too much for the std rods to handle.

the motor has forged pistons etc but i left the rods std because when i had it built i didnt think i was going to attempt to push for 400kw

I was of the opinion that rods and rod bolts broke due to rpm, and pistons generally break from higher torque (heat) and detonation. Obviously the rods will let go eventually, due to power but I thought that level would be quite high?

I could be wrong though, someone feel free to correct me.

    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
