After years of delays hold ups, lack of motivation... I Got the Engine done and took the old girl where she belongs, back to the track. 95% off all my research was on here trawling the forums for engine build info. Ive got vids on all the rebuild including every failure along the way but it was all worth it because.... well look below i's awesome 380RWHP on 14psi running her in, can't wait to turn her up.

Hey mate, great vid. How do you get 380 RWHP on 14 psi? I am running an RB256DET with same RWHP but at 20 psi.

Can you tell me what you have done to the engine as mine is pretty standard apart from forged internals, balance and bigger injectors with a Nistune board and LM TD06/25G turbo on a standard manifold.

Thanks.

GTX-3076
10.5:1 compression

E85

262 tomie cams

Hand ported head

VCT

Custom 6boost style mani

3.5 inch zauzt

690nm peak torque

And it's fresh obviously. I need to do a comp test now it's run it.

More supporting stuff but those are the power makers.

All the build detail is on the channel

OK now I see why thanks. Yes, should be a bullet once 20 psi dialled in.

I'll have to be honest, I winged it on that lol. But head and block were virgin just got a skim for the MLS gasket and sent it. I did hand rotate her, clear is clear.

That's not true mate, clear by hand vs at 7000rpm are 2 wildly different things!

Yes that's true mate. but still it works. And there was a silly timing issue where if it were close it would have kissed the valves, so I'm pretty confident it's okay. I might have gotten lucky, I might have measured the piston height. It was that long ago when I did it I can't honestly recll, but I remember not doing much about it, and not doing it right if I did anything.

Hillclimb looks great. Much better than what we have here in NSW. Where is it located?

    • You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?
    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
