Trent,

Just like to say good luck at the upcoming Autosalon.

Having seen the process of the engine work im sure you will crack the magic number you are aiming for :)

Thanks Dave,

We were extremely happy to get 1000hp on E85, not sure if that had been done before, but to push it further now we are switching to c16 and more boost. The engine had perfect compression after the power cruise event, so we are happy to step up the power and see how it goes. Obviously the GT4788R is a big turbo, so there should be plenty of room to move from its current power figure. Fingers crossed it performs well at Autosalon. If it does, we will make the trek to Autosalon Sydney with a few more goodies added to it to go even further.

200hp @ 6000rpm, 800hp @ 7000rpm. :whistling:

Holy. Shit. Talk about a serious PUNCH, just a shame it takes so long for it....why so little power at 6000rpm though? I mean my R33 pulls harder than that lol

The engine is designed for serious horsepower, so there has to be a fair number of compromises along the way with the build to ensure it will handle what we plan to do with it. One of those compromises is response. There are many factors, but some of them are comp ratio, camshaft size, camgear tuning, exhaust manifold sizing, the size of the turbo etc. We will be compensating for this with a shot of NOS, to get the car onto boost, hopefully around the 5500rpm mark. That would make the setup a lot more enjoyable, although it is pretty freakin cool when it comes on! BTW, there is no lag between gears. It falls back onto full boost.

I'll bet its fun.

What secret spec cams are you running?

In all seriousness have a look at wizard of nos nitrous products.... they are light years ahead of the holley/NOS- NX- Nitrex etc. I've had first hand experience with Trev's gear on a 1800hp GT40 (plus nitrous) at some standing mile events and I have bought a full direct port set up for my own RB28.

It's exy- but it's well reaserched and tested technology.

We were just going to use a Zex wet, single fogger kit which we already have here, controlled by the ECU to turn on and off based on rpm and boost. For spool up, that should be pretty easy to achieve.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!

      To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket

      As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year.

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
