No dramas on the way home? looked nastier than what it was i think.

Yeah, hose was up high and on the outlet of the engine, just after the thermostat, so the engine stayed full enough I think.

Looking at replacing all my hoses now, anyone know anything about silicon radiator hoses? are they stronger or just more flashy?

Thanks to Mike and all the team at SauQld a great morning was had. Great to have the extra time as well. Am going to upload a quick clip to YouTube of 88RDY hitting the rev limiter, you will see the outcome soon.

Awesome air this morning big shout out to Mike for as always making today happen. Was great would luv to run the full track next time!

Glad we could fly the skyline flag in the sea of Evo's ;)

Ants could defo smell your brakes and about 16 more sets out there that were on fire! Spoke to the guy with the yellow Evo on e85 and he said he was full outa brakes at one stage with his street pads in there. That Evo was fast......

Cheers

Glad to hear it seems no damage done... You were really hooking through the dipper I had a massive smile on my face seeing and hearing you give it the beans through there ;)

From what I can gather the silicon hoses are stronger and less prone to failure than the normal style hoses.....

No worries, unfortunately unless we get 100 people they don't let you have the national circuit.

Mine were smoking when I came off, was a good 50 minutes.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      So I put it to 3bar (43.5psi) while priming. It stays at 43.5~ as I crank shakes slightly. Ive also tried dropping pressure to see if that changes anything. I replaced the fuel dampener because I was troubleshooting the system along with the stock FPR (swapping them one by one to rule them out). But i only got up to changing the dampener and it started running again. Injectors are stock second hand. I did a bench test on both my original ones and the secondhand ones. The second hand injectors I have in the car now spray slightly stronger than my original injectors.

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I knew Andy from about then, it did some cool stuff. By 2005/2006 era, he also implemented closed loop ignition timing tuning. In 2004 it was pretty cool, being with him when he was doing automated fast self learning tuning!

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      By WR33KD · Posted

      Im No tuner but…. im running a 25det with north of 600wkw at 9000rpm e85 and water meth. G40 1150 on 32psi. Having a real built head will flow a crap ton more power but you being stuck at 7600 won’t be helping at all, throw all the boost you can and nothing will happen. Solid lifter and 9000rpm is the only way,  I have built my motor 3 times, not from engine failure but more along the lines of my failures in not understanding engine parts better, basic phrase to help, “block hold power”  “head make power”

      What's the fuel pressure while the car is cranking? Curious, why did you replace the fuel damper? What injectors are you using, are they brand new?

      "Cheap" bolt on turbo on RB25DET NEO

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      I think it's terrible value, it should be half that price IMO. And I'm known as someone who will unironically suggest the GTIII-SS on the RB26 if you have very specific requirements. The GCG RB25DET "hybrid turbo" is 1/3rd the cost of this GTIII-RS kit and sounds like it should fit with zero modifications. Talk to Hypergear as well, maybe they can do something that fits your requirements.
