As i said before the car drives really well for the power it makes.we all know you cant use 550kw on the street so as for anything over 350kw being usless your right.

But i built the car to race on a wed night street meet at the drags on radial street tyres.

No its not a race car if anyone wants to go for a cruise im more than happy to go :D

Paul i dont know why they didnt have it in shoot out mode ill ask and let you know

Thanx

i just cannot see how that car could be usefull in getting good times on the drag strip. I would like someone to explain it to me if possible.. (serious request)

If that japs were getting good times with a smaller capacity then the 3L motor here then why won't it work is the question, the car still has a full boost band of 4,000 rpm which at this stage for a " street tune " is more than enough, coupled with the power and extra torque from the larger cc motor is should do very well?

How will it be at a drag strip?

Old school vid, same turbos, 2.6L though

Fast forward to 4.26

It will be a monster :D

Whats the time limit bfore WSID boot people out? 10.00?

but does it have such a narrow band of power?

Well with some well suited ratio's in the box and diff and getting the power to the ground without wheelspin is the way it will cut a good time at the track! Just because it makes huge power later in the rev range doesn't make it worse off, you just have to match the power & revs to the right gears and tyres..

rev limit 9000 rpm on standard crank? Be careful with that man...

RIPS has been known to spin his up to near 10,000rpm - his 240Z's RB30 has been running standard crank for as long as it has been running and it started off in the 10s and has been working through to low 8s with a LOT of runs under its belt, the stock cranks seem to do ok with proper care etc.

Check this out:

2nd that, they've been running consistant low to mid 8's with a stock crank, have been for a while now, their car and other customers cars over 1000hp are also running stock cranks and reving to high numbers, and they've never had an engine failure, ever, just goes to show the rb series cranks can handle some spin when prepped right!

    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
    • You have a knack for photography my friend. It makes the 86 look like a complete bucket. The 34 went with you to Europe and back. It's special. (we all feel the same about our 'shitboxes' that every bystander seems to absolutely love)
