Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.


Recommended Posts

We make a lot of significant' stuff for mining projects (and import a fair share more of it too, to be fair), its just that that isn't a sustainable manufacturing industry.

im sorry do you want us not too post so u can follow???

If you would be so kind :yucky:

Sorry if i rubbed you up the wrong way there, but it twas a busy day in here yesterday

Deemed too expensive.

Ideas on a 30/25 n/a?

Been done with the better rb26 head, forged hi comp with itbs went 170~rwkw.... 10g for 170rwkw is farken dumb.

Then again look at what I built, if you want it do it

I WANs gonna just pretty much set it all up as the 30/25 then when off my p,a drop the turbo on and such

Nick's right. The machining costs alone are astronomical. It has been done time and time again and the results quite frankly sucked.

You can't have turbo compression on an n/a built motor either, the thing would be a pig.

Just don't do it, NA's need hi comp to make power, more compression = bigger explosion = more skids.

My new motor will be built to the highest comp I can go and still run 98 octane

I wasn't gonna do it just wanted opinions and now I know the past failures of people I won't do it haha il just get everything ready for when I get off my p's and yeah

For the least headaches, source an RB25t and start by getting it cleaned and machined. These motors can make big power and cheaply, as many want to do an RB26.

Interested in a billet rotor, Teflon coated, Teflon sealing strips, magnesium 14/71 Mooneyham blower??

They weren't failures, they performed exactly as is to be expected form a natro 3L. Don't get me wrong 170rwkw is farken impressive for what it is, but not for how much it cost especially with no option of progressing.

Like I know I'm not making big power but the potential is there, whereas with this thing.... Well, ur at it's upper limit, u can't put nitrous on it cause it'll ping it's head off and you can't turbo it for the same reasons/u wanted an NA.

Just bad, bad bad bad.....

14/71 dear god he wants all the supermacharger lol. And nah man, Natro power all the way to me, it's more satisfying to make 400rwkw natro than 500 with a supercharger/turbo (yes I'm an idiot) :thumbsup:

You make a lot more than that with this one. I had for a pro street 500ci

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
