Barry jou harde werk wys hoor, kan nie dink hoe dit gaan lyk en loop as jy die kar 100% na jou smaak gaan maak nie!

Tussen jou en Hentieb sal niemand meer 'n rooi SX in die Transvaal wil dice nie. hehe

Hoeveel moet die correction factor op 'n dyno wees vir ons hier bo in die Transvaal?

Ek sien ouens sit tot 29% by in JHB?

5-7% vir turbo karre, rondom 20% vir normally aspirated.

Thanks bud,loving the wheels..
Fitted the rears with 285/35/18,s and still she breaks traction ! I am hating the fact that I cannot put the power down. and that is still with the RB25..
Rethinking the suspension setup , I reckon it is just plain too hard.

We had a little impromptu run today, Stew in the GTr, John in the very quick Celica, Ingo in the Supra and myself in my car.

My mods have really paid dividends ! The car is stronger, spools even quicker, hits harder and simply runs like a freight train up top !
It has all to do with the quality inter cooler. Just no question about that.
Time to up the boost a little, could just not keep Stew far enough behind today ... :wink:

Any of you running with the chinky inter coolers, get rid of it yesterday already and fit a good quality cooler. It is just sooo worth it.

Water temps did not go over 90 C nor did the oil temps ever touch 100 C . I am a happy chap right now.

Vince, we need to go for a run bud... 8) 8)

Sounds good, I was wondering what happened with Stewart.
Don't suppose there's any pictures of the day?

Sadly, no. I had left my camera at the shop and John`s son did not bring his. Next time Il bring mine, was an awesome scene with the four cars !!
Don`t get me wrong, Stew`s GTR runs well, it was no white wash...pretty much neck to neck stuff..

This was with the RB25 still...26 will only go in later..

You lucky sod, I have liked those since I saw it for the first time - only pity is they are for cars with OBD - which the CA18DET is not.
