ill be there next week with my mates rb25 vl.

last time he ran a 11.7 @117mph.

its a 5 speed and with the 3.45:1 ratio diff was crossing the line in 3rd gear.

we also hadnt hooked up the vct yet.

so this time we will have a 4.11:1 diff and vct hooked up and hope to break into the 10's.

are there many 5 speed rb25 equipped cars running 10's?

I dont know of any 5spd RB25s in the 10s - but do you think 117mph is enough for a 10?

with the 3.45:1 diff it bogged off the line and only got to 3rd gear by the finish line.

so we are hoping that by using 4th gear(changed diff ratio) and not bogging off the line aswell as having the vct hooked up that a reduction of .7 seconds is definately on the cards

hehheaahe... she is hot!!!!!!!!!......

Well done on the PB Blitz - car looked and sounded sweet from the stands :)

Also, had to laugh at Jim Reed's daughter last night with her "Mintie this, Mintie that, We love Mintie" comments over the loudspeaker lol...sounds like you've got a bit of a fan club there dude ;)

Very hard to run 10s with a manual, i ran 12.9 130mph, then installed an auto and ran 11.2 127mph and still more to come !!!!

i like your mph man. what hp are you making? looks like you just need some 60ft practice and the 10's are yours

My 60Ft are 1.6 not the best but good enough, 1st gear my boost was on 20psi, 2nd gear the boost droped to 8psi and then 3rd gear went back to 20psi the eboost has to be correctly adjusted which will happen tuesday and i'll be back out wednesday. the car makes 400kw on 20psi

I think the res has been lowered so people dont nick the pics and use less webspace

Notice I said low res aside :( - I was referring to the shots themselves, ie the angles as Benm mentioned. I am fully aware that for image protection, photopgrahers only make small, low res images available on the web :thumbsup:

thats very impressive power! and yes the 1.6 60ft is very good for a rwd car.

is that 400rwkw @20psi? we just made a bit more power. 343rwkw@25psi.

you have more power at less boost. is your head modified? we are running an unopened rb25 with tomei poncams and splitfire coils only

    • The attached document is fine. I just downloaded & opened it.
    • Hello, sorry for being late to join the discussion, but my clock just died on me.   Ive tried to look at Michaels digital clock repair.docx and it doesnt work maybe the file has expired.   Please let me know if you can re upload it or take some youtube videos to show us how to get the clock installed? thanks
    • I thought that might be the case, thats what I'll start saving for. Thanks for the info 
    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
