you could say he's bending over backwards for you on this job.....

He sure is Baron, and many other guys are working overtime to make this happen. so much to do to get this thing ready in time. I fear time for testing is going to be minimal.

whilst acknowledging the work everyone is doing I would like to give a plug to Scott Beeton, he has an MSc in Aerodynamics, Bach in mechanical engineering, experience with the Williams F1 team and other motorsport applications and has recently started his own Aero consultancy. He is working hard running various aero configurations in CFD for the build. Thanks Scott!

This is something I really hope you share with us!!

Would be really interesting to see what they come up with and the reasoning behind such designs.

Certainly would love to hear what rules Scotts applying to the mesh when getting the basic flow and then what control equaeven just a simplified explanation of which one he uses for different areas.

Sounds like somebody SAU should try to arrange as a special speaker at a members meeting ;)

Why bother with a roll cage at all ?

If you roll this baby, do you really want to live afterwards?

I wouldn't.

Very much looking forward to the completion and seeing it in action.

This car will be one of a kind...

There's other benefits of a cage too bro!

higher structural rigidity = more predictable handling + more responsive steering etc..

I'm really looking forward to seeing this completed. Do you have any power figures in mind? Also, i would pay money just to sit in this car. Seriously i would.

thanks!

I want to sit in it first though, seriously i am going through withdrawal currently

hoping for around 800awhp

looks beautiful mark, getting very exciting now!

thanks Drew. yeah very exciting to see it come together

the only piece we are leaving as stock is the rear fenders, are you going carbon widebody rear also or is it still secret squirrel?

cant wait to get both of our cars out on the track at QR!

are you thinking you guys will make it out to the Ruzic practice day at QR on the 7th of July?

    • Swapped the injectors around and the misfire followed. I went ahead and ordered the Deatschwerks 550cc injectors and am currently waiting for them to be ship and arrive. In the meantime, I've had my Nistune soldered to the ECU. Tested it, and and tried it out with the software. Everything should be prepared for when the injectors arrive.  
    • Yeah they charge a little extra for mods , last year I noted no mods but I did have an exhaust fitted after that so  better to let them know cause these kinds of things can cause the policy to be void if you ever need to claim.
    • Hello, just just bought an 1999 enr34 with a stock rb25neo and I'm looking to upgrade the engine to 500whp I know some basic things but wondering if there are things I'll need to do to upgrade the stock block and all the bits and pieces to achieve this.
    • Thanks everyone for the replies and suggestions. Got the seats out (hoping I could find some existing grommets but no such luck). By tapping and measuring etc. I could figure out where I could drill through if needed. But first I borrowed an inspection camera and managed to go through factory holes in the chassis rail and could see that the captive nut was holding steady which is why it could retighten. So it was indeed a stripped section of thread, so I applied downforce by levering the bolt head with a screwdriver and went slowly back and forth until it came out. Camera helped a lot cos I could monitor that the captive nut was holding tight. Now I just have one very seized main subframe nut to tackle 😅
    • BOVs do have a purpose, if you ever log pressure before and after the throttle body, you will see a spike pre throttle on lift off from a WOT condition. Enough to bend throttle blades / damage e-throttle motors or simple assist in blowing off cooler pipes. FWIW, the above on really applies to those running at least 2 bar of boost. OP shouldn't have an issue, on the other hand, here are some videos of my shit box over a decade ago with some succulent dose with the airbox on and off. That shit box is unrecognisable these days 🫠
