i got a stock gtr (ie filters, exhaust, twin plate, ebc, stock turbos) and simon out launches me, i can only manage a 1.7 60" with a 11.8 pass, and hes doing 1.6 60" checky bastard.

i launch in between 6/7000 on the up rev, anything lower it just bogs down on a preped track.

that is a run between me and simon.

i was running 1.2bar for that pass, and another so i could back up the time. normally i do a 12.1 at .95bar.

simon did alot of research and with anthony guiding him in the right direction and building the whole thing from him , from engine to tune, u cant go wrong. as u said the result speak for themselves :D

jesus pnblight cant u say once that u think single turbos are ok, u are constantly on ya bloody twin turbo bandwagon, gives ya the shits, and simons has done an awesome job and proved it where it counts, and congrats simon u deserve plenty of respect mate :P

just an observation peter in the years ive been on the forums u never give credit to the single setups ever!

cheers

Brad

i have not once talked badly of simon combo in this thread or any BUT i have only dis-agreed with his calm about responce in relation to twin HKS2530. Is it not ok for me to dispute a calm if i feel it is incorrect and at all times i have tried to make my point, without get personal or disrespectfull for to simon if someone feels i havent i appoligise honestly. As for my standings about single verse twin well i'm entittled to arent i.

yep

your a pussy if you dont launchg a gtr at anything more than 7000rpm.

it needs it and wants it hard.

best 60footers with big big launch.

:P:D:D

hahaha

i was bumping mine off at 8500-9000 when i had that gearbox in.

f**k it loved it

bout 2.5 meters of wheel spin on re55s's then all grip baby!

at 9000rpm i'd be more worried about the crank/rods/everything being ok with a stock or unknown motor. I don't think big launches are a gearbox problem as i don't know anyone who has broken first gear. it can be a clutch problem though!

Mashrock, what kind of 60ft times did you get with the 9000 rpm launch?

Put car back on dyno last night . With 1psi more boost now 25psi it went 627rwhp or 467rwkw's . Getting very hard to hold it on the dyno now as it keeps baking the tyres. With three people in the boot this was the best we could do with it . Can see the graph is very up and down trying to hold traction .

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
