hahah we used to go through 1500L of diesel in around 6 hours in the Tanks when I was in the army, 1500hp + 60Tonnes = Bad economy lol

that would be comparable to a commercial plane right? have to be close...

i think the bugatti veyron goes thru a full tank of fuel in something like 9min @ full revs on the autobarn :ermm:

That's at full speed... The funny part, you still manage to do over 60Miles!

Spoke to Yavuz last night.

Steve, he mentioned you had issues with the CAS when the big power runs were being done about 6000 rpm? Did you just leave it or did you do that harmonic balancer thingo? He said its about 2K to do... Not too keen on that!

Yeah bloody hell that was annoying. It still made 400rwkw by 5000rpm though lol

The problem was the signal to the ECU. The balancer thing he's got is the way to go without a doubt though, i tried to do it the way SAS do it (who said they'd done it to hundreds of cars etc), and that was a complete waste of money and time. Hindsight is a prick, in hindsight i wouldve got the balancer Yavuz sells and been done with it.

End result? Wasted $550 on a sensor that hardly works and can rev to 8000rpm. I used to love wringing its neck higher but not anymore until i get one of those balancers from him, and I will do that one day but to be realistic its putting down enough power by 8000rpm anyway. How far did you want to rev to?

Yeah well if it comes down to it i will do it. But seriously I am so sick of spending money on this thing. Haha. I have never heard of this issue before.... either here or on the pommy forum. Could it be something to do with the 30 block and being taller then the 26 block? The extra length on the timing belt flopping around? Maybe?

I have my limiter set to 8500 just so i dont hit it and I never rev it harder then 8 on the Nismo dash. Yavuz did spin it to 9 when he tuned it 12 months ago and it was still making over 370 rwkw... which was it's peak just over 5K (i think).

take it to 9krpm stevo & paul :P

Shush you! haha. 8 is enough. I still have the junk arse N1 oil pump in mine. Its done 20,000 kms....I would hate to smash it to bits and cost me a engine!

    • Once you go non OEM DBW e-throttle, you'll never go back to a cable throttle. Just so good in every single way.
    • Feels like most tend to keep it under 8000rpm for hydraulic lifters. Quick search on the net and those on Rennlist like to keep theirs under 7500rpm, Speed Talk under 8000rpm. Perhaps start to take timing out for 7250rpm and soft cut it by 8000rpm.
    • Ok, so I just had a chat with my mechanic. He said there is no real source of lead in the engine, the bearings and pistons are aluminium and the rings I think he said are steel. He doesn't recall what additive he used but that along with the thicker 20w50 he used could be a source of lead. It's put me at ease a little bit and I guess I'll just have to wait 5000 k's to do another change and see if anything is different.  I appreciate you guys chiming in. I have a habit of immediately thinking worst case with things like this.
    • Finished street tuning it to 20psi with WMI. Haltech really makes it easy for you with those 4D maps. I have 17psi springs in my gates but they seem to only start cracking around 17 and taper off around 19/20psi. I was originally on 14psi springs but I'm expecting to need ~35-38psi to hit my goal and I was worried It wouldn't make it. Dyno's booked for next Friday. All I have left is to replace my el cheapo amazon special type k connectors on my EGT's. They have no strain relief and well are just all around cheap compared to what I use at work. I had the wires in one get lose and I don't want a repeat of that on the Dyno. I also want to figure out why I have 4 cylinders that are perfectly identical, one that's 30C over and another that's 30C under. I'm chocking this up to EGT position in the runners not being identical and will verify that as well. Wish me luck! Hopefully I make all the power with no bang. Question for the group, I have my rev limiter set to 8000rpm. I have a fully built head and new lifters but I stuck with hydro's. Is 8000 fair or am I being to cautious? 
    • Anyone used A to Z Imports in Goldcoast?  I was referred to them for engineering and RWC? However besides a few one off bad google reviews it all seems pretty legit?   https://www.atozimports.com.au/
