Nice effort 600hp interesting to compare the time slip with mine if you can post it as last year while running 480-490rwhp (not awd hp) managed a 11.33 125mph, so to put down 11.7 at 115mph sounds like an efficient ET for the mph. But does seem it's not running on as well in the top end strip as you might hope ,yet it's get down the first half well to get the efficient ET.

Again Nice work

guys my dad was shifting at about 7300rpm when the car revs to 8500rpm this is because we have still not wired up his shift light and with a 4'' exhaust when your doing 2000rpm it sounds like your doing 6000.

at for what sort of mph the car should be good for 125-130mph, this is what jim from CRD says anyway.

the car did a 1.75, 60''foot

as for times, dad said he can easily take another .5 of a second off.

, thats with out any trouble he rekonds.

as for the GT-SS not having much up top.they make peak power at 7500 rpm

if anyone is questioning the GT-SS turbo's i'll let you all know before we go out which should be in two weeks time, and you guys can come and watch.

also it looks like we are putting in an OS six speed sequential so we can really pushh the car.

Cheers Ben

and also i'm no good at computers so i'll write up the whole run sheet a little later.

Thanks guys and yes the OLD MAN said we can all have a drive (his sons that is)once hes done the fastest time he thinks is possible.

Also i don't want to have a drive and then have the box die on me,so i thinki'll wait untill the new box is in before i try to beat him.

Stacey/Paul i heard that you have got a new OS gear set in your car now is this true.

as for the comment on the shift light and tacho. my dad dosen't like looking done when he's going that fast.he is 59.

Also Stacey/Paul/Anyone what is a quick 60'' foot time and what should we be aiming for.

Cheers.BEN

I dream off a 60ft time like that:( My mph was 111-114mph all night long, despite ETs varying from a 12.9 to 14.2, depended if my 60ft was 2.2 or 2.6:(

Take the keys and give them to Fatz or Duncan, want to see if the thing can knock the sled/Zed off top place for Eastern Creek lap times:thumbsup:

11.7 is good for 115mph must have backed off at the top end ????. I've done 11.9@115mph and thats about as good a time as you would get with a 115mph trap that is driving the car to it's full potential . If you have 360kwaw on CRD's dyno in a r33 my guess is something under 125mph and no more which is hell quick for a car that is driven to and from the track in street trim . But hey hopefully you can prove me wrong and go 125mph+ :rofl: .

once we have finished the car as in JUN Plenum,OS sequential,Big Brakes and tuned on C16 we intend on hitting the Track and seeing what times we can get. Yes is would be great to take down a Zed from the No.1 place.is that the UAS Zed.

We intend to one of the quickest Drag, Circuit and driven everyday car in OZ(Thats my dream anyway).

Our goal is a 10.5 with NOS with these turbos.

i know a lot of you will say thats impossible but then again most would not have thought you couldn't get 367AWKW out of GT-SS turbo's.

The response of the turbo's is great so the car should be good on the track.

Hard to set up your suspension to be optimum for circuit, drag and street. My suggestion regarding NOS is to get two bottles. Big ones.

as for suspension its awd, so it'll be a bit stiff all the time and it still should hook up of the line ok.

as for NOS we would put a 100hp shot in to make up some extra mph once we are into 3rd.

Righto then.

Not so much impossible as unrealistic or impractical, or poor return for money invested. You know it would be easier to bolt on a larger turbo and make 450kw+ instead of the plenum, and the gearbox you are talking about is a dog box that requires alot of maintenance (5,000k pulldowns).

But then again anything is do-able...

clearly in this build money is not an object. Didn't realise that OS produced a dog engagement sequential transmission. Surely a pfitzner box would be a cheaper and better/stronger option.

OS box is heliquial cut gears so they are not as loud and they don't need as much mantenace.

as for all they other box's on the market,my father wants one which will be a lot quicker to change gears.

as for the larger turbo set up instead of the plenum,out car has got allmost no lag and still pulls.

The car is producing more torque than a R32 with a T88 straped to it,which also was on the same dyno.

Also the price is 16,500au from otomoto.

hope your not comparing it to the abflug car ben....no offence to abflug but...its a dog. 16,500 why not a hollinger can't see why you would spend all that cash and STILL have helical gears which still require synchros.

    • Nice, thanks for sharing your progress....that's a pretty long list you are putting into it!
    • Decided to upgrade my pressurised plastic coolant expansion tank for a fancy pants alloy version The OEM versions can get brittle, even the new plastic one I got when I first got the car is a starting to show signs of "stress" I wasn't cheap, but it is basically unbreakable
    • Morning all, I have an RB25DET Neo that's in need of a rebuild. Will need new pistons etc due to detonation damage. Would anyone be able to recommend a shop in Southeast Queensland who I could bring my long motor to for a rebuild? Just want someone who knows RBs and whos built a bunch of them before. TLDR - recommended engine shops for RB rebuild.
    • Gday Thought it was about time I started a build thread! As expected this project has snowballed into a huge financial liability, but unless you’re strong willed and responsible, it’s not a surprise. Background -  My first turbo car was an R32 GTS-4, got my full license and then totalled my Au Falcon a week later, so while trying to sell my RMZ450 dirtbike to buy another car a bloke offered to swap the R32 which at the time I felt like I was ripped off but looking back and seeing prices of those now ($40kish) it was a good deal, I didn’t know enough about these cars to appreciate what I had so sold it before the RB20 blew up. Between here and there, out of 12 cars I’ve owned the note worthy ones are a V8 Lexus SC400 (soarer), a couple of XR6 Turbos and my beloved S15 which I had for about 3 years, picked it up for $12500, repairable write off but she was fine, gun metal grey/pewter and bone stock/unmolested until I got my hands on it. Ended up spending about the value of the car and 280kw, 2 demerit points by the time I got defected and sold it for $14500 (also $40kish in today’s market, rip) Fast forward to the present day, I’m in a much better position financially and daily an MQ Triton (great cars, pipe down Ranger Bois), I cruised marketplace and car sales for a few months looking for another R32, the best deal I could find was an absolute rust bucket half finished project for $12000, until this R33 popped up in Port Macquarie for $18k - unregistered and barely running but decent shape, kept an eye on it for a few weeks and the price steadily dropped, $16k then $15k then $14k, that was the point where I was like shit someone’s gonna snatch this up! It was owned by a young bloke who had big plans but him and his missus just had a baby so smartest move financially for them but big gain for me. So 2 days later I’m towing a car trailer to pick this thing up. Roughly 2 weeks and $3500 later I’m cruising around Newcastle in my beat up R33 all smiles and dose noises! It only needed some basic shit to get it going, coil packs and air flow meter, electrical stuff and all fluids changed, 158k kms and running pretty good, nice smooth engine after oil and coolant flush - when I say coolant I mean it had been filled up with tap water, every gallery and heater element was filled with rust, 8-9 flushes later and still had brown liquid coming out but she’ll be right. The car was painted R34 Bayside Blue at some point but whether it was a cheap job or just not looked after is anyone’s guess, clear coat flaking like sausage roll.  Was rethinking my choices and contemplating life, had it up for sale for $22k - still cheaper than any registered R33 but got little interest, next minute I had an opportunity at work - 6 months overseas for good money, so that was a no brainer, fast forward again and here we are with a 50% finished project. Current Mods - 200ish KW according to butt dyno Was tuned with Apexi PowerFC EBC (old school Greddy Profec)  Stock turbo (more shaft play than a Tinder date gone right) 3inch turbo back Varex muffler  Aftermarket injectors of mystery size, Power FC showed 36% duty cycle at full boost so not behd good size Someone had good intentions but stuck with the stock R33 MAF so we had misfires at 6000rpm due to the MAF hitting 5.2V So far I’ve redone the entire interior with carpet form Car Mats Direct, new Seats and steering wheel from Autotechnica, also sound system by Autobarn (mainly Kicker) Also MCA pro comfort coil overs - Hands down best purchase yet, worlds of improvement over the tired 30yrold shocks Goals - 450kw/600hp on flex tune New paint job - Midnight Purple 2 Engine is at the shop getting rebuilt with forged rods a pistons, new valves and springs, ATI Harmonic balancer, Aeroflow 7.5L sump, rear head drain and oil restrictors as per oil control thread* and cam covers modded for larger breathers, other stuff I can’t recall of the top of my head Parts purchased and to be installed once the engine is done -  Engine loom from Wiring Specialties including these options: Haltech Nexus S3 R35 Coil pack conversion  PRP Dual Trigger kit Fan controller  Other Parts -  262 Kelford Cams Turbo - Hypergear ATR43SS3-ProS with T51R mod (whistly boi) 6 boost manifold (high mount) 50mm Turbosmart Pro gate (plumbed back for legal reasons) HKS Super Turbo Exhaust with High Flow Cat Custom 3.5inch dump and front pipe 1500cc Bosch injectors  Fuel Pump walbro 525 Haltech MAP and IAT sensors Haltech Flex Sensor Fenix Radiator with dual thermo fans LS1 Alternator Kit Oil Filter Relocation from EFI solutions and Cooling pro oil cooler Many other things sitting in my garage waiting for that engine to come back. Progress pics to follow -  
    • Losses have to be less with DC coupling. Provided the battery inverter has decent MPP tracking ability - which really shouldn't be a problem. It's not 2005 any more.
