Its a good number. But I cant spoil it for the owner :)

Ive heard very good things, as expected!

Cough *cut price GTRS upgrade*

You too hey? Thought I was the only one special enough to know :(

It's nothing huge, but an expected figure and there's probably room for a few more killerwasps with a couple more mods. Definitely a worthwhile street car upgrade, given how early it comes on.

Were you guys breaking traction in the vid?

I'm on a laptop in an office, what do you want me to do, put on some fucking Sennheisers? Speed looked to be going up inconsistently with the RPM, was curious if there was any break in the drivetrain, be it clutch or wheelspin.

On that note, I bet I can film a video of me breaking traction in a car with the camera looking at a blurry view of the dash and you wouldn't know it.

To me the SS1PU is a GTRS replacement with a little more scope for a well sought setup.

That being said, the GTRS is a 240-250kw item with ballistic response. So far the SS1PU is living up to my expectations, and Stao has shown it definitely has the scope for more (which I dont think the GTRS can do 'as easily').

If I owned an SS1PU on a fairly simple setup I would want around 240 and id be happy with its outcome. If I had spent lots of time making sure my cooler and exhaust and stuff were all good, and no valve float etc, then I would want 270 from it. Remember that Stao runs a fresh motor and upgraded valve springs. While it still is a 'stock' RB25 it is pretty much the best a stock RB25 can be.

As Birds has noted previously, the guy has spent countless hours perfecting his test car and knows how to get the best out of it. Dont buy an SS1PU expecting 280kw without LOTS of effort.

    • I think last I checked it was 35cm from fender to wheel center. I heard u can go up to 45-48cm before handling his impacted. But I need to check again. I know I was about 1.2 cm off being close to max recommended. 
    • You'd need to weld on an external gate to achieve that number though. I can't remember seeing anyone make 500hp at the wheels with the stock manifold / internally gated turbo.
    • Suspension Component Question Looking for some feedback based on people's experiences! I know this has been loosely covered in other threads but I can't find any direct answers/experience. I'm up for some bush/rod replacements and was interested in a hybrid approach between hardened rubber and pillowball kit. Why not choose one or the other? Well, this is for my daily driver, which I track once or twice a year. I like a stiff car and a sporty feel but I don't want to compromise the chassis too much with 100% pillowball gadgetry.  I know from experience and a tonne of reading that not all components affect ride quality in the same way - eg. in my case, coilover top mounts should be hardened rubber as pillowball transfers way too many undesirable qualities and doesn't have much more upside than a good hardened rubber. But, pillowball tension rods translate to much better turn-in/steering response and make the car significantly sharper, without negatively impacting ride quality in a significant way.  I'm not TOO bothered by NVH (to a degree). So, with context out of the way, does anyone have any experience with a hybrid approach as mentioned above? I'm going to replace all components over time so am seeking guidance on: - front tension rods - upper camber arms - rear lower control arm - rear traction rod - rear upper camber arm - rear toe adjuster rod  Secondly, is there any reason why this is a bad idea? Or any other info/wisdom that I might not be considering. Cheers 🫶
    • That's good to hear I'll stick with the stock I hear they are good for 500hp and I'm only shooting for 350-400 once I can get this thing sorted and get to actually building it. 
    • The stock one will outperform any aftermarket standard position exhaust manifold. If you don't believe me, do a back to back test (same turbo, same boost, same timing) and you'll be super surprised.
