This build has not finished, alot more to come and i will try to update it on here and facebook.

currently waiting on motec for a revised Gpr package to run the Hi lo injection properly and also need some other setups to be completed.

Once i have the car running on M150 we can then start a new chapter on tuning and i know this will piss off alot of tuners out there lol.

Anyhow keep reading and learning as there is much more to come.

Yeah, I would love to see a dyno sheet and a boost curve for this.

It's an awesome build with some seriously cool hand made manifold and wastegate piping, I too am a little surprised to see a T70/T72 turbo mixed with the work of art parts around it, it's sorta like two steps forward and one step back when there are some much better technology turbos out there now.

......but I would love to be proven wrong :)

:/ wonder what ever happened to this build....

was super keen to see results but Im assuming its all fell short?? there aren't many high HP RB26 builds that seem to be able to successfully run a MoTec.

An ecu is only as good as the calibrator in most cases unless its 20year old technology.

Hear someone went to the big house for modifying things that go boom, boom... that might slow down progress perhaps?

Explain

If you are referring to Bobby you must be wrong as he is still quite active on Facebook. In fact he was actually taking the car out today

Meh....the reality is that the car must have fallen short of expectations

Really not sure how a full tune can drag out for 2 years... so claims that the build was f1 spec, just musn't show on the dyno graphs

there, i said it.

/thread.

You guys are all funny , you need to follow me on FB i dont get on here as much anymore!!!!

Been busy with large projects and i have managed to get the car sorted for its final tune, Chris from motec will be doing the final config as he has been away in USA.

So once the config is correct and the car responds, it will hit the dyno straight after that.

BTW the car drives perfect and the VENTURI works !!!!!

    • They are under bucket shims. Tomei provides a test shim kit and then any measurement of shim required. 
    • I always wondered how you were supposed to buy a set of 24 buckets and somehow magically have every single one of them yield exactly the desired clearance. I would have thought you'd need to assemble a cam with either 12 "sample" or "example" buckets of known top thickness (or a single such sample/example 12 times over!!) measure clearances at every valve, and then do the usual math to work out what the actual "shimness" of each bucket needed to be, before buying the required buckets to make up he thicknesses that you didn't have on hand.
    • I now seem to be limited in power due to my rev limit/hydraulic lifters in my built RB25. I'm looking into converting over to Tomei solid lifters. Question for anyone that has done the conversion. I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  I don't know where I got this idea, as so far I see no mention of this in any of the Tomei documentation. It just states I need the Tomei solid buckets, solid lifter cams and upgraded springs. As my head is already built, all I would need is another set of 1000$ Kelford cams, 500$ buckets and about 4H hours of my time installing and I'm off to the races!?!? There's no way it's that simple, I must be missing something? 
    • I couldn't agree more. I should have started from the get-go with a NEO or solid bucket conversion. I started looking into converting over to solid lifters yesterday. Now for some reason I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  But I see no mention of this on any of the Tomei documentation.
