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.

    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
    • Yeah, I would have said the same. It makes me suggest that there are other things wrong, such that the ECU is totally unhappy with the broken sensor. The only other thought here is that maybe it is shorted, which might cause a different issue to the typical "disconnected" sensor.
