  1. Vijay's all safe and sound resting at home. It was very unfortunate. Just glad everyone was safe and sound. The GPS speed was over 220 and still pulling, we will probably know the exact speed once we checked the SD Card. Tyres were R888's, no idea as to why it came off the rim, but thank God that it wasn't as bad as it could have been.
  2. Excellent result, well done to SRD and Ryan for an awesome machine! It sounds like a fighter jet when on boost! lol Abbey's dyno is quite conservative in comparison to other Hub dyno's, so that was a very impressive power figure! Bring on the Ethanol map next
  3. It just depends on what current the ECU's injector drivers are built to see. Syvecs know what the ECU can safely run current wise, so it may have started, but it would be a risk not worth running for the sake of fitting a resistor box. The higher currents could play around with the injector drivers on the ECU and just cause damage which isn't necessary.
  4. From what I understand low impedence injectors run a lower resistance in ohm's compared to higher impedance injectors. If you run 12v through them with their lower resistance you create a higher current. This higher current can be high enough to burn up the ECU. The resistor pack just adds resistance to the injectors so less of a current is seen by the ECU and you won't be in risk of frying it.
  5. Seeing this thread makes me want to get back into a Supra! lol Here's a couple old one's of mine
  6. Awesome work bud! That turbo looks perfect in your bay Are you going to fit the intake pipe as well?
  7. The stroker brought spool up by around 5/600 rpm in comparison to a 3.0. The way a stroker drives off boost as well is great. You have a nice low down grunt and it was effortless for the turbo to come in, even with a large T6 framed tubby. The area under the curve increases, as well as the peak torque. The only issue with using a 67mm turbo on a stroker is, that due to the extra efficiency of your engine, the turbo will be running out of puff that much earlier as well. However, this then opens up the opportunity for you to have the option of using a slightly larger turbo, gaining more power and torque, yet retain the driving characteristics of the smaller setup.
  8. Seen this car in the flesh, and it's sounds Great car for the money!
  9. I think they had some issues with the SP Valve on Steve's wangan Supra when they tried it last time, and it worked better without? IIRC It was when Andy owned it though... With the ring and pinion kit as well as the T67 DBB the power is going to come on really quick anyhow. If it does come on any quicker you will have traction issues. The extra costs to buy and fit it won't be worth the gains IMO.
  10. Jay did you collect it ok this morning then? Teddan, they tried delivering a few days later apparently but couldn't get through to you. I sent them with TNT not UPS like the cooler, as for the large items it was cheaper I've just got everything back this morning, and your new tracking is: 1Z61E56R6895195589 Its 5 packages in total. I would suggest to keep an eye on it just in case, I will try as well, but I'm not always online so best to keep an eye yourself too. I'll pm you my number if you need to get through to me quickly.
  11. It was a Supra, and I'm not sure on the rev limit either.... It was really fun though, went to the top speed very quick for it's power and a very different type of drive in comparison to a stock geared version. It really did fly through the gears. It would be great for a track car, and if the top speed with your setup is 175 then that would be more than enough for the roads as well.
  12. Just to add, I have no idea what tyre sizes he had on either...
  13. I've sat in a car with that final drive. He had around 650hp, and it is really really fun. Extremely easy to control drifts (if that's your thing), and flys through the gears. The con was the top end was really pretty poor. It seemed to get there so quick that you are left feeling that you need an extra gear. It was indicated around 140 on his GPS IIRC...
  14. Thanks for letting me know guys Jay the clutch is pending at the moment, someone was supposed to collect tomorrow as he paid a deposit a while back. If he drops out ill call you. Just pm your number across
  15. A heap which helped your current car to be developed into what it is today
