Beautiful car and great setup!

That is one majorly busted engine! I'm not sure you could blame the enlarged bolt holes or not. The crack runs through one of the holes but whether it originated from the hole or just ran through the path of least resistance which is the hole. Very hard to say. The vast majority of RB's floating around are far less than 1200HP so there may not be a lot of relevant experience on whether they crack at that point regularly. I've only seem RB's crack in the middle of the block and underneath at the sump mounting face. Yours is certainly an impressive effort (but obviously not appreciated!).

Good luck with it. Some of the sand racer Patrol guys over there might be able to shed some light on it as they're running similar power to yours.

Hi ZEEKH2B,

I can't speak form experience, but is it possible to drill and tap the head studs further down into the block?

This would spread the load across more block area (with more material above the intersection of stud to block) and possibly reduce the flex in the block.

You would need to find/make longer studs, but since the block is the weakest point at the moment, not the studs, this may be worth investigating.

The guys at RIPS in New Zealand play with some big HP RB's, they may have come across this issue previously.

Hope it helped.

Mark :)

Heya PN-MAD,

I was more thinking that if the same thread was moved further down in the block, it'd have more material above it to reduce flex.

If the thread was longer it'd spread the load over more area. So if the thread pulled through, I'd go for a longer thread for sure. What do you think? Just throwing around some ideas :)

I guess it's much of a muchness...

Furthermore, if the thread was moved/extended lower into the block it'd also have less stress on the thin cylinder/stud wall from combustion.

Mark :)

I'm far from experienced, but I guess at a certain level it just becomes R&D. Unless you can get some info out of the big builders (RIPS Maatouks etc).

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!

      To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket

      As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year.

      I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
