Because 380 is HUGE power, not just big power ;)

Its also a massive % increase for just a tune

Lol have you been in a boss model yet? My manager has one and they absolutely hammer.. Didn't actually believe ford brought out such a powerful car from factory in AUS

380rwkw without mods? :mellow:

what do they weigh?

About 1800, maybe a bit less which is expected I guess for a big car.. got about 300kgs on my old GTR :O.. still do a tune and your in 11s.

Other vids online to back this up as well / all info on forums etc

Standard boost just drops off so much

They go alright:

This ones got a catback and a tune, nothing else

I met a bloke the other day selling a Callaway Corvette..90k if anyones interested..still left hook though

11 sec in stock trim and 200mph+ top speed

much the same as this one

Enjoy 380rwkw on pos stock tyres/suspension/brakes

When you bringing it to a meet Leigh?

Obviously upgrade the 245s, and will be doing brembos / suspension down the track as well

Whenever the next meet is !

Saving for a few months, what are they made of gold? Get a Blitz CS and stick with the standard plenum...

Lol studying full time+part time wages=not a lot of cashola.

Yeah I've read that that upgrading the plenum on a standard turbo isn't really worth it as I won't see any real gains but by doing it now with a FMIC it means I won't have to do it down the track and it'll support future mods better (ie. upgraded turbo). What I liked about the plazmaman plenum was that it retained the standard factory runners. Essentially I'm not after a car that's a dyno king rather a quick car with some good midrange torque.

interesting leigh!

the car was running 118's @ full weight, anyone know enough about boring/pointless/homo drag racing to derive a rwkw figure from that?

FWIW i ran consistent 119's with 325rwkw @ 1350kg

Going by that post, you do not need a plenum upgrade and are only wasting your money if you get one. And it doesn't sound like you have a big disposable income so why bother?

If you're not after a dyne king, rather a fast street car, turbos like a gt-rs are where you'd be looking, and you don't need an aftermarket plenum for that.

If you ever decide to get a turbo that does warrant a plenum upgrade, thats when you buy one...

What about that fluke 190mph pass Ham? No need to be modest

    • would a r34 gtr hood line up with gt/gtt stock fenders? after latch, front bumper and hinges are swapped for gtr ones? or would the fenders be too low or high in relation to the hood surface? ( I believe seeing somewhere that gtr front fenders use some type of riser for the sides, but do not know how that relates to stock gt/gtt fenders.)    
    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
