Old E-17 setup before SR20.

New setup.

Best times so far are in my sig (i've got a bit of work to do :)) & power wise a shade under 200kw @ wheels on 15psi boost (very light tune with little timing, on 95 ron PULP).

While i'm here i've also got a white R31 Coupe with a VG30DET conversion.

Mods are:

VG30DET engine
Z32 300ZX 5-speed
GTR Brakes
EMS ECU
Fuel System
177kw @ wheels on 9psi
etc etc.....

1320kgs stocko apparently for the NICS RB20DET R31 coupe (mine has had the electric suspension, hicas & electric front spoiler removed so with the new engine & GTR brakes would be not far off that).

Aiming for somewhere around the 400rwhp mark with a few breathing mods (ET is so much faster currently):D

Cheers!

I have been reading about your car over the months on Performance Forums. You have done a great job will be good too see some 11s out of it, which i'm sure it can do eventually.

Can you tell me more about the old e17 setup? How much power was it making and how did it go with the nitrous? (bang??)

haha not really, although I also have a MY99 WRX with 190kw @ wheels (traction), 1999 Seat Ibiza GTi Cupra Sport (corners) & a daily AE94 Corolla (runabout)...... i need to get rid of some cars!.... Anyone want to buy one haha.

15" rims for the ET, jap spec VR4 rims with some decent rubber.... although i do have a spare set of 16" Sparco rims laying about some where that would look pretty good on it.

Cheers guys, looking forward to getting a bit more serious with the ET soon.... just got to find the time (house renovations and work steal most of my time these days)

To be honest i never really sorted out the E17, it did make very good power (forget the figure though, but i'll try and find the dyno sheets).... just knew the E17 was never going to make the power i wanted so went SR20.

11's @ 120+MPH would be fantastic, the potential is sure there.

WOW.!!! it looks like a factory install. neat and professional. very well done.

how do you find weight balance in the car now..? is the SR heavier..? does it affect braking or handling.? thanks dude. just curious.

i have a question about your brakes. Evo IV being 5 stud and all.. can you supply me with some details, as i'm keen to sort out some magna TM, TN, TP brakes, calipers etc. would love to know if there is a difference between them, and what was involved.

Many thanks.
