No where near as much as my mates 32gtr that has gone through about 5 motor and different turbo applications to achieve a low 10 sec pass.

Spend 5k on an XR6T and you could run 10 sec pass.

380rwkw

Auto

Diff gears

slicks

=10 sec pass

i spent 2 k on mine to achieve from 195rwkw to 300rwkw.

Also to the arguement that they are no good at track work,If you seen one set with the right springs and a manual trans and good driver they can mix it with most cars.

2K for 300rwkw? Gees that's hard to believe. An APS phase 2 kit cost at least 5K and they claim it delievers 330kw at the fly. So i'm guessing you'll get 270rwkw from that.

There's a guy on XR6T forum that does 11.5 1/4 miles and I'm sure he's spent at least 5K doing it up so 5K for 10 sec passes is hard to believe.

Don't you need to change injectors(1K+)

edit+tune (1K+)

There's already 2K.

But then again you are doing everything yourself so you are saving a fair bit of money whereas most other people just give the car to someone else for them to do the work. That's where the $$$ come into play.

Trust me.That guy is craig.His car is a weapon.As for mine it is full APS Phase 2 running around 360fwkw.

There is so many was to mod a T now it doesnt cost much money.

I just went to the airpowersystems site. Phase 2 is meant to be 330fwkw.

You must of bought the aps kit 2nd hand because 2K wont even buy you the phase 1 kit.

There is many Unichip computers on the market,Injectors are getting cheap to source second hand,The auto just needs a shift module fitted"$60" and a oil cooler to be a super positive shift and the exhaust isnt dear if you know what combo to run.

I am with FIST Performance in Brissy.APS 330fwkw claim is only a guideline and all cars perform to how they are tuned.Im running 11psi with stock intercooler.My injectors are running about 90% duty cycle.I could easily run 14 psi and up some more fuel with a $800 intercooler and achieve 360rwkw.If i wont more i up the injectors again.I then regear the final ratio with a MK 2 final drive out of a manual with some 17 inch rims and with the right conditons and a set of borrowed slicks 10 sec Qauters are there.

Check out APS 10.98 Phase 3 car

there is many cheap piggy back cpu conversions around so sourcing them with injectors and exhausts and intercoolers isnt hard or exspensive.The turbo is rated to 650 hp or close to it.So the XR6T is a tunable weapon and will more so be in the future as manufactures of parts jump at each other for the competition.

I work with all makes including alot of nissan skylines,200 sx,supras and anything else that has a turbo.

    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
    • Those comp test results are not hideous. Whether they are accurate or not (ie, when that comp tester says 140 psi, is the real pressure120, 140 or 160?) is unknown to us. The state of the battery used to crank it over is unknown, etc etc. Many people around here would say that the absolute values and the spread are perfectly fine to just add boost and keep going. I personally would be happier with a narrower spread than that, but even the diff between 125 and 145 is not terrible. That one cylinder at 125 though, has probably copped some damage relative to the others. You should inspect the valves seeing as you've got it open. Do you know how to measure installed ring gaps? That, and an inspection of the rings themselves, is how you will determine whether they need to be replaced. If you're not good to do these things, take the block and the pistons and rings to a shop that is, and ask them for the go/no-go on them. Do the bores need a hone at all? If so, you might well be justified in getting some different pistons in order to get away from the ring supply problem. Whether you're happy to spend a lot more money right now, on more gear, rather than less money, but an amount that looks stupid given that you will only get a handful of rings in exchange for that money, is for you to decide.
    • also possibly backed up to my filler and shat down it! 🤣
    • Ok so i would love some advice here please, i purchased an R33 a few months back and its had a few mods done to the engine, its an RB25det running a Master ECU, 1200cc injectors, bigger turbo, oil cooler, oil filter relocation kit, Spool H-beam rods, acl/ross pistons. When i removed the motor from the vehicle (as its getting a respray) i thought i would compression test it and these are the following results. Cylinder 1-145psi, Cylinder 2-143psi, Cylinder 3-125psi, Cylinder 4-145psi, Cylinder 5-140psi, Cylinder 6-135psi this test was done with the motor on the ground and powering up the starter motor. I dropped the sump and found broken oil squirters on cylinder 3,5 and 6. I was told my rings are probably worn so i stripped the motor completely to get a new set of rings for it. The trouble is no one has these rings anywhere and they have to be custom made by Ross over in the states and will cost about $600+$200 delivery. My question is how can i tell if my rings are at fault and if they are still ok and is this price ok for a set of rings?
