Oh and wreckedhead, 11.6 @ 120mph is a good time but consider the following:

BU5TER: 2.5l, TD-06 25G, RWD

JETT aka 'nicknick': 2.6l, T78-33D, AWD AND C16 Fuel !!!!!

:D

Oh and BU5TER went 11.7 @ 128mph with a 2.0 60ft .... When he runs 1.7 60' just you wait and see what happens...

Adrian

Thanks guys.  These std turbos work great, I dunno why everyone changes them for bigger ones?!?!?!

Adrian

Well done Adrian, nice work mate.

Indeed the standard turbo does work great, mind you when you add nitrous you'd expect it too. Hmmm... maybe I should get myself a 50hp kit too.

What's the bottle cost to fill, and how many passes per bottle?

So do you run it on the street? C'mon tell the truth now :)

The ONLY down side I can see in having gas (rather than a bigger turbo etc...) is you don't get to use the power whenever you want to. Say on a cruise in the hills, a full track day, the traffic light grand prix, and that sort of thing. I guess if you have a huge nitrous bottle it wouldn't be a problem. The legality issue isn't as much of a concern as what ISN'T illegal these days.

A bigger turbo AND gas is the best way to go.

Hmmm... cams or nitrous?

How quick is your car without the gas?

What's the bottle cost to fill, and how many passes per bottle?

10lb (D Size) bottle = $100.00 = 100hp for 100sec

So do you run it on the street? C'mon tell the truth now

No.

How quick is your car without the gas?

13.471 @ 104.56mph - (2.2 60')

Thanks for answering my constant questions Adrian :D

So do you know what rwkw gain your car makes on the gas (before/after fig's) ?

By the looks of things it makes a massive difference! An 11mph gain in TS is excellent.

$100 isn't bad at all, considering the number of passes that gives you. $1 per second doesn't sound as good though :)

It'll be very interesting to see how much quicker you'll go with a 100hp shot. With good traction the low 12's / high 11's (@ 120mph) may well be possible!

Cheers,

Matt

Holy shit i'd better not go out in public again the shame of a T78 powered GTR beating me by one 10th and at 120mph hahahaha is to much to take  :devfu:

dont worry my cars already having the twin plate clutch put in so next week hopefully it wont slip of the line and in third gear, but thats ok im not asshamed at 11.6, its not a bad time considering i only spent about a grand on the car since i bought it.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
