Barry believes it, with E85. RB26s with 98 make about 340-350 with GT-SS.

Im not sure of the state of the car itself, but fair level of supporting mods to get it up to 400 i thought. Solid fuel pump setup, big exhaust (and all the GTR conspiracies that come with twins), clutch... Im sure there is other stuff i havent thought of.

i'm just going to throw it out there... but has anyone considered that the RP dyno might just read lower than others?

(not that it matters in any case)

It's all marketing...

- make the dyno read low where people have money to spend for more upgrades

- make the dyno read high where people are a one-time show so they can advertise & bring in more business

illuminati

Yes but not nearly as fun as paying out hub dyno people for thinking they have more power than they do

I can't see there being an issue with it hitting 400 on e85... it would be absolute max but should be possible

Yeah either way I don't really care about the top end power figure; never have. Within reason (obviously I'll be shitty if it finishes up at 250), but it's the midrange and linear torque I want here. I judge this by acceleration and seat of the pants alone.

Will never forget the '450rwkw supra' on e85 at the chasers dyno day rocking up with skinny 17s on the back did a bout 10 runs to try and beat the 2 falcons :P

Yeah the falcon 4l turbos are quicker than the 5l v8s (at same or similar power) because of the power curve pretty much constantly on their max power output whereas the v8s wind up. My power on a 6 pretty much runs 10s

Can't beat dat dere instant torque and response on the 8 doe

Whats eta on your gtr?

As soon as Barry gives me an ETA I'll multiply it by 2-3 and let you know

Waiting for some parts at the moment apparently

Doing some oil supply bulletproofing

Only has to be 50% of value for write off I thought? 2k excess sucks but that's nothing compared to what i'd get paid out if needed

Daily driver but I think on policy is only 10,000km a year

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
