You're going to have to take me for a spin in this thing when it's back together, run in, and tuned dude.

Cheers, sump pretty trick, inside baffles are all modified with hinged gates to stop oil slosh. Pickups been dropped about 30mm lower also. Will be about 8 or 9L capacity now.

Awesome!
I was thinking about this car today. I've never been for a ride in a worked RB.
I bet you're foaming to unleash to horsepower!

Sure am Bart. It's anyone's guess how many poneys it will pull but my aim is 400kw which is just shy of 540hp at the wheels. Everything's there to support that sort of power so not sure whether it will run out if wind or fuel first.

It does take a fearsome robust fuel system to support that much go.
Another guy on here (Who hasn't posted for aaages) made 417kw with similar improvements. He once told me it pulls from 0-100, then 100-200, and 200-300 at a lineal rate. (Had been clocked at over 300 in a motorsport event)
That's some scary speed!

300k is dam fast, what track was that on?
My old datsun went past 180 and back to 0 on the ruapuna straight at the datsun track day so prob 200ish.
Your right about fuel, ive stuck with an in tank pump as didnt want a external pump and surge tank setup (yet) (still need to fit a pram in the boot
) so have gone with a big Walbro 400LPH unit and 1000cc injectors.
