If it isn't getting some form of boost, it still isn't a real car ;)

There will never be any form of parasitic forced induction on this car as long as I own it, id be quite happy for people to line up next to it and challenge how much of a "real" car it is down at willowbank though :P

I'll take that race :-)

FYP

And then when it's actually checked against the car I'll get raped, a dodgey modplate may aswell be written in chalk on the radiator it serves no use and you will get caught out

Man over east sucks! Half of me wants to move over there to find a job, the other half doesn't want to become a criminal just for modifying a car :/

Yep it's the sad reality of it, over here we are considered one step above dirt

Okay! I'll take that challenge... But I know I'm already nearly a full second quicker then you :P

No unfortunately, The whole club will know when shit starts going together... Had some external issues slow up both my spare cash and my will to play with cars.

Like I said, as soon as I know you guys will know :thumbsup:

    • The car remains in paint jail. I am now pretty convinced that the whole "RB25 Airboxes are kinda limiting to ~300kw" could be a thing. Also saw a good video from Engine Masters: (Sorry for FB link) (https://www.facebook.com/watch/?ref=search&v=761771519471924&external_log_id=c10bcbb6-2c39-4ff3-9240-287e9921fde6&q=Cold Air Considerations) Where they tested Pod Filter sizes and kept adding bends to a LS3 on an Engine Dyno to find if bends caused power loss. It's a good video worth watching - They did lose ~25hp from making an intake which had 3x90's and a 120 degree. They only lost maybe 1hp with a basic 90. I feel that by sealing up my airbox I have: 1) Created the same restriction a stock airbox would have. 2) Created a very convoluted set of intake 'pipes' by forcing all the air through the ducts. So I am pretty confident I'll be going full circle and have a huge hot air intake pod and actually see a benefit. The air does *not* stay hot once it gets flowing, aided by the ducts, and the pod can then pull air from anywhere. All the posts of yore talk about the stock airbox costing 10-15kw at 300kw+ but you know what? I f**king would very much like that 10-15kw and I remember my own pod filter in engine bay experiences. Turns out the GTT Reo and Headlight brackets really don't allow you to mount GTR items, no matter what the internet says. Various brackets have had to be made up to actually make it fit right for the front bar. Also some idiot mounted a 3L Accusump right where the bumper wants to go, so that has had to be 'relocated' To where, I am still not sure, but it's supposedly mounted in the pictures and I can't see it.
    • Sounds like the oil pressure light is wired into the oil temp sensor... As it warms up, resistance on temp sensor reduces, hence more current can flow and the dash light gets brighter.
    • Got the front subframe and suspension in.    
    • If it's cold in summer, then no issue. If it's cutting out every few seconds and you're not reaching your target temp, then there's an issue. One could be the pressure switch and the other issue could be the temp probe inside the evaporator.
