new motor, new turbo setup more power but u run slower than ur old times...didnt u give adrian shit for something like that? :sweat:

P.S sounds good pauly :PBJ:

not a new engine...just freshened.

it didn't run as quick but it did run faster.

yes it sounds good but due to a plumbed back wastegate its not a 'off tap' as it could be.

Yeah saw that, but the RB30 8 sec pass is enough for now. Once Paul catches up we can post that vid :D

RB30 > RB26

i see your 7 sec pass...and raise you a Godzilla Motorsport 7.84 @ 184

RB26 > RB30

i did notice the distinct lack of gate barrrp

are you trying to trick everyone into thinking you still got lowmounts?

it has been said the wastegate plumbed back helps scavenge gas from the turbine. In theory it sounds right but back to back testing is the only way to be sure. I have another HKS wastegate flange...i might knock up a screamer and do a mythbuster's on it.

Soooo...what is Mark up to? I didn't get a chance to speak to him about his car...

And... when are you back out? Have you order a chute? :P

You should have been rude enough to ask him.

next friday night...see

no chute...i got away with not being logged on both my 140+ runs.

nice...best of luck for next Friday.

Oh, and I noticed the irony of your ANDRA race number.... :P

Back on topic...Anthony Maatouk is up there with the best RB30's in the world: 8.1@171MPH all on a 10.5" tyre. Even batter is the fact that the car has laid down 1080rwhp with a single cam.

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
