LOL good effort mate.

[iCER]

loves launching at 18psi ;(

actually no it didnt lol. Shame it rained out after only 1 launch ;(

Calder was cancelled last time....let hope next week with a bit of luck we have some better weather!

Calder wont complain on 18 psi launches!

[iCER]

just some happy snaps from Sandown 500. Good thing was car got a bit of attention. Must of been the super awesome 700hp lawl number plate up in the bay. By looking inside engine bay they couldn't see anything to fancy. I should invest in one of those board with a list of mods...

Plenty of Holden sticky beaks....

[NUT347]

How come you've got skid rims on the back?

[iCER]

shame they ain't skid tyres to match ;(

I am actually pretty wrapped there was no police attention on people leaving (well those leaving properly). No issues on the et's.

[Parfrey]

Car is looking pretty good dude.. Lol @ stockies on the back for a car show! Why not a dyno sheet instead of a 700hp wank plate?

[Michael (HYPOEB)]

Maybe he wants people to think he really has 700hp? Car looks good,Dont no why you wouldnt put wheels on the back though

[[Sterling]]

Clean looking BA. Should have atleast put 20'z (bro) on the back for show.

[EFFalcon]

out of interest, do you own the other 2 20's?

[iCER]

nah dont own the other 2 lol. I thought it was wasted funds as the car rolls like this 100% of the time.

And for people who dont know, they are not stockies on the back. They are MT40/17/275 ET Street semi slicks. Its how i drive it on the street always


its how i roll!

btw car has like 750+ bhp .

Dion actually gets his new dyno next week, will be going down again for a run and see how much it is after the last few changes from 463rwkw.

[Michael (HYPOEB)]

Whats been done to gain 100rwkw?

[Dansedgli]

150 hp drivetrain losses?

[Rollin]

Big converter in there....

[bng]

I don't get why you have a 700hp plate which is roughly 525kw and you've only got 480?
Even still, thing is mental. Wanna trade? Lol

[EFFalcon]

700hp at the motor?

[fordriver1]

lols that you still have a rep for being a wanker, after getting pushed out of xr6turbo.com.....

tis a good larf tho...

[EFFalcon]

he's ok in person though

[iCER]

as you can ask 100% of people, im just a warrior on the interwebz. People who take it serious like nut743 obviously have issues in real life. I just pass time on the forums. Way to busy with REAL things to care online. Its my outlet for venting

bng, read above, 480rwkw is about 750 bhp. (i would presume most people know what bhp is, but for those who dont, its engine hp). Either way, car is well over 700 bhp but i dont like to boast now do i

Next dyno run i should remove the convertor and put c16 in just to see if i can get 522rwkw (700rwhp).

HYPOEB, went from 3.5" to 4" exhaust, new twin entry dump and 0.9psi more boost. Oh also an oil catch can setup bruz!

[Michael (HYPOEB)]

Wow and here I was thinking bhp is brake horse power which is at the wheels? guess not lol.
How loud is it with the 4"?

[bng]

Ahh I see what you did there. 700hp looks better then 480rwkw lol. Id do the same. As soon as John mentioned it I was like '**** I'm a potato'

[iCER]

lol. I like potato's!

its loud... ;( cruising is bearable over 80km. Getting up to 80 is pretty damn loud. On boost forget it...everything is screaming and screeching. I just hold on. I got no idea what it would sound like outside with screaming turbo, screaming wastegate, screaming 4" exhaust and 4" pod with 24psi....i can only imagine it would sound pretty good! on idle and rolling past people though its like the car is off so least i can roll past popo.

When at lights the AMS (boost controller) ticking is louder than the car. So i just put foot of brake and use the hand brake and it doesn't tick.

[iCER]

Also here you go Hypoeb-

Brake horsepower
Brake horsepower (bhp) is the measure of an engine's horsepower before the loss in power caused by the gearbox, alternator, differential, water pump, and other auxiliary components such as power steering pump, muffled exhaust system

Its how the yankies measure their cars (like manufacturers here use fly wheel kw to rate cars). We use MPH for track times so why not bhp too. BHP looks better than fwhp and (should be) recognized worldwide.

I think Australia is the only country who use fly wheel kw?

[galapogos01]

Have you heard of the metric system mate?

[iCER]

whos she?

[braad]

Jesus Christ. Who cares what your car makes without ancillaries. Just say what it actually makes with our convention. your time and mph says more than a wanky plate can

And one day you'll get a defect for the 20" and 17" wheels

[NUT347]

Lol idiot, I dont take you seriously. I just like shooting you down when needed.

TBH, this place would be pretty dull without you to pay out on.

Ps: your 137mph is dodgy.

[iCER]

im sure it is. 4 runs all over 136mph in both lanes...must all be dodgy!

braad, if thats all i get defected for, id be wrapped

[Ef_frmnt]

Only 136mph and in both lanes..? Clearly you can't even steer the thing let alone drive it. Why don't you give someone else a crack.. bet it would run a 9.99 straight up.

[iCER]

9.99 with 420rwkw? i done 1.64 60 foot's. Will someone do 1.3's with et streets? must be some pro! Not to mention there is like 7 people with 9.99 or better over the last 10 years from bseries up.

So 10 years of b-series or better, 7 drivers 9.99 or better. yea ...look how common it is. Straight up alright

Not to mention fastest time on ETs is like 9.9x which was only done last few weeks with an unbelievable 1.4x 60". (best 60" on et's so far to date)

I like how you make it all sound so easy. Obviously more clueless than I am

[Ef_frmnt]

Yeah I've never put a car down the track in my life. I guess I'm not a member of enough forums or read enough useless facts about times with x tyre and y engine and record this and dyno figure that. Forgive me. Guess I'll have to start signing up and spinning shit all over the internets before ANDRA will renew my licence.

[NUT347]

Yeah man, how dare you question the man that had his car built for him.

[nstg8a]

And for people who dont know, they are not stockies on the back. They are MT40/17/275 ET Street semi slicks. .

Last time I looked the term 'stockies' referred to rims not tyres.... And since your running stock xr rims yes they are stockies.

Can't remember who said it but someone suggested losing the stockies and the heavy 20s and running some proper lightweight rims, that I reckon would make this car perfect.

[iCER]

thanks.

But rims are always a personal choice for all. Not many people like your unique style. Its like people who have fluro wheels who think they are awesome....each to their own lol

[EF ECTIV]

you can now buy 20' M/T ET Streets.

[Rollin]

I'm just going to jump in late about this BHP shit, because it pisses me off.

Any british show (Top Gear most notably) tells you flywheel horsepower but they alwayy say 'Brake horsepower'. Even when they put cars on chassis dynos they still give the measurement in bhp

As iCER posted above, BRAKE horsepower is the engine with NO ancillaries attached (no water pump, power steer pump etc). It's COMPLETELY USELESS for comparing power output, because I'm quite sure there isn't an automotive engine in the world that doesn't have SOMETHING being driven off the crank to enable it to run or continue running.

fwhp or rwhp are the only semi-worthwhile figures to quote, trying to figure bhp is a joke.

[iCER]

its a shame there isnt just 1 unit measurement.

I prefer one that reads the highest


20s ET's? Interesting. Anyone got any experience on them or proven times? Dont want to be the first to spend 500$ a corner and have fail results lol.

[bentls]

Lets just wait for all the boosted members who have used 20" mt's to comment

ok go..........

[iCER]

haha im sure id be the first
