Why?

An rb30det has enough grunt down low already.. and by the look of the graph, he has the same down low as any rb30 det.

When I drive my rb30et I feel the pain cause it's a laggy crack whore....

I would go as far to say this bloke would have been better off just going twin cam and enjoying the power.... as opposed to having f**ked around to get the same power and response as a twin cam.

Point is, for a single cam this is awesome....... for a twin cam, very average.

I compared the graph to mine, my car makes 20rwkw more 1500rpm or so earlier and I even have a larger 1.06 rear housing

Still compared to the other setup its much more responsive.

I personally prefer a larger rear housing so that boost comes on more progressive so I can actually get traction at the race track.

Massive power is awesome for drags, but shit for track lap times.

I should have probably added control the supercharger load points in 3d therefore it now works much like a progresive nitrous setup (gear based) which tames it down in 1st and winds it up for the rest. Much like a t88 powered car never hits target boost in first due to the fact it cant load the car enough to produce the exhaust gas. On drag radials you could alter this load setting to allow more aggressive engagement.

Car is used for daily driving, drags and has done a few days at sandown. It is actually a very good alrounder.

    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
