Sad news Marty cause i know first hand how good the boys are and how hard they would have worked to get this project on the road.

Hopefully it'll arrive before the deadline to leave for WTAC and put in some test laps down there?

There is a rumour it's made 450kw atw on 13psi boost by 2200rpm. Very responsive!

Waiting to run it in some more and then play with the valcon to control the camshafts.

I can only see good things coming.

Cheers

Wow, that's very impressive!

Any rumors on peak power or what it will rev to?

Just went to see some tunning then.

so far 507.8awkw (680.9awhp) and a blown ear drum at 17psi.

Yep - response is awesome.. will try to get a video on later.

Drew very nice work was very nice to meet u yesterday, I cant wait to see your race car in action 508kw at 17psi is insane! Gotta get my 35 out there soon :)

yeah you too. Had a blast in the stock 35 yesterday and beat my old PB with this setup by 1.5 seconds.

Also learnt a lot from Steve Glenneny, Ace driver!

35's are great out of the box, im sure you will have fun.

awesome stuff. the scary thing is how many cars I know of that are still in the build 9 days out from WTAC. perhaps some kind of unanimous agreement for a 2 week postponement is in order? I know a few guys who would gladly sign up!!! spectators and organisers might not be keen though.... :(

Hmmm. Seems like it makes too much torque at 22psi and has shut the dyno down......... Hehehe

Also looks like all the carbon will arrive tomorrow (yay).

Just ran out of time for testing is the only downside so far. Looks like we might be able to give Handbrake a run for his money after all.

Cheers

ive seen that with a couple of the other gtr's there marty....

but listening to the 35 on the dyno would be something else :)

Me too Mike, but never on a run in tune..!!! Theres still heaps in it. What a response monster this is going to be. Cant wait for superlap and the future development of this beast.

yea i could imagine bud... maybe time to replace our 2.8's :P

list thing is going to be something else and hopefully used for more than just wtac

tomorrow is here,

have the rest of the carbon goodies arrived???

if not u guys may have to run it with the fibreglass mould :P

Should arrive any minute now. Then there will be some late nights ahead :(

Cheers

    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
