Lol yea man we had the TO4Z for a little while then we got our hands on the new turbine we have for the new setup with the powerglide, Garrett GT42-45R hybrid . we wanted something nice that can give us enough power to move the trans. Plus a 100 shot of nitrous (wetshot) to wake it up quick!!! So it's 800hp+ plus the 100shot of Nitrous! ;)

WOW that run, 9.2 @ 150mph with the powerglide was crazy...what 60ft??

maybe you should get a bigger intercooler though :P

I believe it was a 1.4 60ft ,the best ones been 1.39 my friends trying to get it lower .

That was the smallest front mount we could find lmao!!

yeah a RB26 and a MASSIVE high mount not something i come to expect from the engine bay of a mx5 hahah

absolutely crazy mate! what are future plans?? or is it as far as it can go?

@ spark . Yea is really something unique that my buddies have done here they deserve all the credit the car is insane people the are scared to race it !

@ Wytnte , yea definitely not your average mx5 lol my buddies want to hit the mid 8's if possible ,the boost has been raised we were only on 28psi now it should be @ 38-40 psi with 100 shot of nitrous so next video I make will hopefully be a 8 sec pass !!!!

@saw , lol thanks I will definitely let my mates know , I can tell you first hand how hard that car pulls!!!!! I been in it on a street test pass with this new setup and man i needed a second pair of underpants lol I've never been in a car that pulls that hard! Is insane being in that car that night it over boosted to 56 psi all I said was WTF! Revving to 9k + rpm!

    • Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D    
    • Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D  
    • Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.
    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
