well the real thanks gos to SST who built, tuned and helped with my car the whole way. Realy wanted to prove a point with the WOLF 3D and standard injectors. they are not maxed out yet and im not running massive rail pressure.

On a side note, can anyone tell me why you would run a cold car on a power run? when its still in cold start, explain that to me and speedworks please.

Another lesson learnt for the people chasing big HP in there RB25s.

Im waiting to start modding next year when im a bit more settled. Ive got my company car so the skyline only goes out on weekends and rarely cos fuel costs heaps here and cops are harsh and the poor road surfaces are extremely dangerous. Ive noticed perth roads to be much smoother, ive had some close calls here with little bumps and irregularities on the road surface causing the car to lose traction n get sideways :D

It will be long term but the Plans for it now are to get the engine rebuilt with aftermarket rods and pistons, head porting,aftermarket camshafts and gears. PowerFC, Trust T51ZR and a external wastegate (not to atmo). Ill probably get a larger full 4 inch exhaust and try and make it a bit quiet. I want around 550 rwhp which will see my 32 comfortably into the 10s.

Im at the moment very content with my car though so im not too worried.

Nice result :D However I hear that dyno reads high :|

and Tristan dude - you have the dirtiest engine bay in the world! If it wasn't making f*cken awesome power like that I'd be paying out on the filth :D hehehe

Once again standard injectors are proven to be able to cope with well above the 300+ rwhp misnomer amount. :( Great stuff.

no award for a dirty engine bay, its not that bad it just that i dont have bling.

did you or want to check my gate for carbon??

Tristans car was good for us as his car is used for work as is and runs pump BP and the only car that beat him was on race fuel and running major boost but still was an outstanding power maker.Yesterdays cars had to run stone cold but today the took them out side and warmed them up and we all know an engine at full temp makes a lot more power and PAS would not let us put Tristans car on warmed up today(Yes they realy did run tristans car cold on cold start and ppl would have seen the fuel smoke)

We were sad we could not take Ants dat to the shop last nite to fit the cooler and tune it as PAS management would not let us.

Lukes car ran 494rwhp on a DYno Dynamics a couple nights previous, so the reading were on the high side, but still two standout performances from Tristan and Luke:cheers:

Sorry Paul I don't agree - i would put my money on a hub dyno reading more accurately than a roller dyno.

And if it was reading a little high - then all figures for all cars are a little high - so Tristans would be to high as well???? What did Tristans make at SST during tuning???

Can't people just say "Top Effort" without having to make excuses or add there opinion.

588 was a top effort - no matter what fuel he used, how much the car was warmed up, etc ......

apparently tristan's made ~430 on sst's dyno? i agree with paul....

can someone confirm....?

i agree with you tho dan when you say its a big effort....because it is....

maybe the extra power on all the cars is a result of no tyre slippage on the dyno?? could that have that much effect?

    • Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!  
    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
