my mates done nearly the exactly the same as mine, less compression then mine, less aggressive cams and it made 180kw on 98 so that's why I was hoping for atleast 200 on e85, my engine builder is pretty positive it will make 200kw, but the proof is in the pudding!

Here is a photo of her in, heard her run for the first time today, I do have a video of it on my phone, will figure out how to get it onto here, tuning tomorrow, will try and get some video footage and decent non-phone photos sometime aswell.

Dyno sheet - Mild Tune (will push it a bit later when its proven to be all well)
Engine torque is that divided by the diff ratio. 3.7 in this case
Annnd its on a hub Dyno hence the power curve "interuptions", if it was on a roller it would be smooth as silk.

I can't read dyno sheets.. :(

Is that like 165kw?? :)

yeah mate 167.6 down the bottom

did end up making 170 odd by the end of the day, although I need to adjust the cam timing to get a few more revs out of her and upgrade the cat back exhaust, also tempted to get the throttle body's enlarged and sealed properly, one has a slight leak on idle causing a very minor miss, pretty sure EFI hardware will do that for me.

  • Like 1

That was just 98, E85 actually didn't make any more power but the car sounded a lot nicer, sounded smoother through the rev range aswell. which I was sort of disappointed by but in an NA build all gains are very minimal.

Not sure if this will work for most of you

Waiting for my go pro to be returned that I left at my friends place while I picked the car up so I can upload the video properly

    • Block bump. $400. As above cyl 6 needs bore or sleeve.
    • I would think making the argument that the travel is limited by a spring flexing against a spring perch as "the same method". Later on in the document they do state that the spring can't bind on full bump travel and cannot come loose in full rebound travel as well. (which is all very sensible). The laws are actually pretty sensible and reasonable. It's just that the people who enforce and check them don't actually read them or know them accurately. "Oh, coilovers? Instant fail mate. Don't even need to look at it." - Guy who will be instantly reported by me. There is probably merit to people who do get defected for height also get defected for the suspension in that state that allows it. I did never consider the people who are complaining about coilovers being picked on are also running around at 50mm off the floor.
    • I think given SAU's knowledge of E85 we can strongly conclude that 10% ethanol in almost any situation is entirely fine. Almost all of the myths against E85 were overblown, let alone E10.
    • From your link See bold text, is this referring to damper settings, if so that may a issue for "some" inspectors, I cannot see aftermarket coilovers having the evidence that "must be available that its functional performance is equivalent to the original" Maybe just remove the adjustment knows and hope for the best???? Meh 5.2 Suspension travel In all instances, modifications to a vehicle’s suspension must ensure the integrity of the system and not compromise the ride quality. At least two thirds of the original suspension travel should be maintained in both directions (rebound (i.e. extension) and bump (i.e. compression)), and rebound must be limited by the same method used by the vehicle manufacturer or if this is not practicable due to the nature of the modification, an equivalent method. If an alternative method is used, evidence must be available that its functional performance is equivalent to the original.
    • They actually don't - They adhere to VSB14 rules just like Victoria. The rules are against CABIN adjustable height, and it quite clearly states that the height has to be within parameters. I asked the VASS engineer to confirm this when I got my car engineered and they refused to engineer the coilovers because they didn't meet the requirements for requiring engineering. (mine are height adjustable.) People "Not wanting to bother" with "Actually reading/knowing/adhering to the rules" should result in fines and immediately losing the ability to issue blue slips and/or RWC's in Vic.
