the funny thing is if u knew what a die hard ef el fan knows u could go a lot faster 4 cheaper still ! bet u wish u knew u could get a chip and burner for around 250 and btw the ef police computer will still have a speed limiter
if the ECU could have fit and worked would it had been as accurate as before? or would it still be a bit off.... i want to put 4:11 diff gears in my VK and can only imagine ill be having this problem
im no ford fan either but I like the footage. I must admit the commentary was a little bit on the daggy side, but Ill follow your style with my Panelvan rebuild. I was adicted too the series after the cut off disc fucked up..peice of shit. hhahhahaa. Nice work dude, number 14 is due when ???
I know guys, I certainly didn't think it was going to take this long but things have been fairly hectic of late. I should have taken the car the Performance Car Mania at Winton last weekend. I wouldn't have giotten any official times but it would have been fun. Hopefully we can get some new videos happening soon.
@blownhemi whats funny is i have an ef burnout car that i was going to put nitrous on also. i didn't end up doing it because i didn't think the gains would be that big. after seeing this i regret selling the kit haha.
hey man. i must admit i fast tracked a few episodes lol. but i really dig this hey!! it's amazing what you can do if you just take a little bit of time to do shit yourself. im converting datsun to an rb motor at the moment and all ive bought is an engine crane and beers for anyone who's wanted to help hehe.
would u agree as a rule of thumb that that the key things to a budget drag car is 1: big displacement to start with. and 2: nos is the biggest bang for your buck mod?
More cubes is always better, an RB into a Datto would be a nice swap if you get it to fit right. Nitrous is the cheapest way to get a 100-125hp gain but once you start pushing harder then you'll have to start buying better rods/pistons/etc. Plus gas costs money. For long term I'd look at turbocharging especially with an RB engine. If it wasn't for the Falcon I might have picked a VL turbo for a 13s for $1300 project. It would have done it easy.
Sorry about the delay guys. I'm lining up a meeting with one of the other 13s for $1300 cars and we're going to run heads up at Sydney Dragway. Nitrous Falcon versus nitrous VN Commodore - should be awesome.
@blownhemi well youre doing a great job. its nice to see that you can get speed on a budget when you look for the right things! think youll hit 12s? :p
@blownhemi ive never dealt with nitrous systems before (hopefully soon), so ive gotta ask, how did you run a pressurized fuel line to that fuel solenoid? might sounds simple to others but like ive said, no experience on something like that
Basically you tap into the fuel line supplying your injector rail. Obviously this only works up to a certain horsepower level before the fuel system runs out of puff.
hey scotty :) , mate im 15 and i have a couple of videos i would like u check out their on my profile , also i have just brought a hz wagon its a holden red 202 it is also dual fuel is there anything i can do to it too increase the proformance yet not spend alot of money because im on apprentice wages (7.50) i am about to rip the engine out to put in a cam and port it and a set of rings it doesnt need them yet im goin to do it anyway is there any quick and easy things to do?
I've been where you are, at 15 I was building a HQ ute from the ground up. Okay, my first bit of advice is to not take on more than you need to. If the 202 doesn't need rings, then leave them alone. Because slapping new rings in a worn bore doesn't help, and naturally the bearings will have to come out and you'll start looking at grinding the crank and before you know it you're rebuilding the engine. With these things, it's cam, carby, compression & exhaust. Ebay is your friend.
@riellyaust Hey mate, i'm exactly the same as you aye. I bought a VB commy at the start of the year unfreistered for $500 to do up for my P's.I wanted power but i'm not someone who does things in small amounts so i got a Black 202 off a mate and I'm rebuilding it basically from ground up. .060 over pistons, custom grind Cam, ported and polished head, 350 holley. As Scotty said Ebay is your best mate when on a budget.
It's possible but it would require a custom tune that would probably cost in excess of $1000. The best way to maximise economy is in your driving style and car set-up. Keep the tyres well inflated, make sure you have a proper wheel alignment and service your car regularly, and then don't driving it like you're qualifying for a Grand Prix :)
@blownhemi great advice! I just wanted to know from someone with expirence because my mate is doign panel beating. And he got gifted a nw ecu chip thing for his nissan shit box (some convertible car). anyway and he said that he went from 320km per tank to 360km per tank which is an improvement and just checking if that would mean the same thing for every car. but yea what you say is true anyways. THANKS!!!
@blownhemi yea i reckon you should spend that on a slab of beer or something to celebrate how far this prject has come. And honestly brings this out on a series or get interviewed by a magazine company lol. bu seriously, when I watch these video's it's better than watching it on TV.
@blownhemi I am gonna hunt down that magazine. Street Machine? Saved in my ipod, I'll get back to ya and lmao concidence hahha and thanks for being a good bloke and replying :)
I paid $50 for it, I'd be happy to get my money back. I don't know how it would go in an XR6 given that they have a bigger head and cam than the stock engines.
@Nickos347 i was hoping to take it to the track this week, but unfortunately the Sydney track is closed for upgrades, i'm make sure I'm happy with everything and then hit the track again. No rush.
