Yeah,

Lots of stress on the body when you're putting out 1000hp....especially in an older & fragile R32 chassis.

Chances are the panel gaps will get warped.

To achieve 1000hp with an RB20, you're going to need to stroke out the block to 2.4L (go with I-BEAM conrods as they can be lighter yet attain the same strength as a heavier H-Beam) and cement fill the block for high boost application,then strap on twin HKS GT3040 turbines, convert to solid lifters, full E85 conversion and fuel system to suit, modify the cylinder head as necessary (including a set of drag spec camshafts) and optimise port design etc etc, and lots of other stuff.

Done.

Thanks been waiting on this answer.

Will exclude the cement fill XD.

lol at euro being monopoly money.

HAVE YOU SEEN SHITTY AUS DOLLARS?

IMO admin should set up the site so that when people write "negative nancy" it auto changes to "negative plattsy" like it does with 'kunt' and 'flammin mongrel'

i like this. +1 for this idea.

also shit post should be "an ianjb" from now on. :woot:

No worries.

Cement fill is likely to be necessary for a 1000hp RB20. It is called "block filler".

It gives the block more rigidity, as at high power output the cylinder liners will experience distortion while you're laying down the power (e.g. as they are surrounded by areas which actually can be considered a weak area - e.g. water jacket).

You can still run water cooled setup if you fill the block to the top row of frost plugs. But for best support you would block fill it completely to the top, but you won't be able to run water cooled anymore.

if you don't, will it create seal gaps?

In all seriouseness Jem did a 540 kw rb 20 once but it was running nos to spool the stupidly large turbo and then it exploded on the line at the drags from memory

if you don't, will it create seal gaps?

If I don't the liners will just crack?

I was thinking without nos.

He was serious about the cement, its definitely required.

I am using CNC liners as well really need for the cement?

hard Bloc helps stop the bore walls flexing out under power stroke allowing pressure to bypass piston

thanks

wtf is a cnc liner?

I meant bore wall

Helps overall rigidity also which is a big variable when talking 1000hp.

Grout/cement filled block will be a must.

that to, I've seen how much a 26 block twists with 700hp, can only imagine how much a 20 block does with 1000+hp

I think ip has watched too many youtube videos on cnc lathes

Op I can sell you one start at 80k

Ppl are overestimating this.............

80k?? AU or EU???

    • Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked...

    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily. 
    • Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
