powercruise is boganised and is boring as batshit (been to all 3 so far), i'll be fishing haha. BUT i hope everyone who enters/spectates has a jolly good time

maybe, but you get to take ur mates for a ride in your ride, participate against cars you wouldnt usually see in competitions and make what you can of it.

i particuly like the fact that you think its boring as bat shit but you have been to all 3. lol

ive been to all 3. driven at 1 out of 3. after the first one i voued never to go again unless i was driving. last year id already payed entry but the car wasnt ready so i went anyway. wont bother going again unless there is some car driving action to be had.

Ive entered each time and had 3 engines fail. So not entering this year as I want the engine to last so I can get some ks out of the car. lol

well, you know, ya just hope the next one is better hahah!

I have to admit, i actually enjoyed the first, I remember watching the off street drags and some (i've forgetten his name...) bloke in that silver 33 GTR targa spec racepace built monster simply trounced everything that went up against it - inlcuding whitler/darby's, whoevers purple carpri. 340kw's & stupid response and 8000rpm launches and man could he get it off the line! very good wheeler. since then, it just hasnt delivered for me I'm afraid.

Being a retired 2E clubcar, now toy it has been a slow ongoing passion over the last 4 or so years. I have only ran it at symons 2 times in the last 3 years on test days and broke a turbo each time. In the last 12 months I have worked hard and spent money on quality bits!!! I am vary happy with the power it made on the dyno but that was just to get a tune in it!!!! Next job is fitting a boost controller. I am wanting to have a test at symons and a run at the drags before christmas. 12yrs ago it ran a 64 sec on a carb around symons and 2yrs ago it ran 12.6 1/4 mile with a little to4. Hoping to inprove on both times!!!! Then have fun at power cruise if I am able to enter!! I love skids!!!!!

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      A few suggestions: Do you have the option of retarding your exhaust cam gear to bring the power band over to the left? VCT would be turned off after you make peak torque, you see the power/torque will decay faster with it left on all the way to the limiter Once VCT is turned off, you'll find the motor will take a bit more timing being ramped in Send its mum, more boost! Of course, depends on your exhaust pressure.

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      I was back on the dyno again yesterday after completely revamping my methanol injection system. I was making 440kw at 19psi. Great, this is more then I was making last summer with my old meth system at that pressure, and I figured it would be smooth sailing up to 30+psi. We continued increasing from there and by 25psi, I had only hit 455kw. Dyno sadly lost utility power at this point and I left. We seemed to be on course to hit the same power wall as last summer (477kw@27psi). This is a built RB25 S1 stroked to a 2.8. Built and ported head with Kelford 272/262 cams. Precision 6466 Turbo. Tuner last year believed the power wall is a mix of RPM limitations (Hydro lifters/Limit set at 7600RPM) and fueling. With my new meth system, we're seeing zero knock now but it still won't go up.  What else can I do at this point? Here's my train of thought.  - It's clear from the dyno graph that I would easily make power to 8500+RPM but I'm limited to 7600RPM. I could risk increasing my limiter, but hydro lifters have me worried. What are my options here besides going NEO head or solid lifter conversion? I'm rocking a 1.05AR turbine on my 6466. Would dropping down to a .84 help shift that power down in anyway? - We're only seeing roughly a 30kw difference at the top end with VCT on or off. Is this normal? I want to confirm VCT is working properly. - Should I look into other cam options?  - Should I just keep increasing boost and see if she wakes up later on? I would expect to hit 600rwkw around 35psi with my 6466.

      iPad gauge cluster

      First thought is to use a ram mount (to hold the ipad) + windscreen suction mount. The arms on the ram mount can be as long as you like, should be able to position the ipad pretty well with that setup.
