toyocharged

Couldn't agree more mate my bt in my rolla made 185hp on the engine dyno :D

Full lap racing mate, not sure of the lap nos as sup regs arent out yet. The grid will be 55 IP cars which will be fantastic, looks like all the classes were oversubsribed so full grids 55 cars for all classes.

a few of the guys run 16s with 235 I think and they seem good, there blody expensive though, I will stick to my 185/60/13's :D

Round our local track at Mallala the quickest IP car RX3 with a BP18T in it does mid 1:15s The V8 supercars do a 1:10 round Mallala, they do have 14 in slicks where the Mazda about runs a huge 195/60/14 street legal tyre. The acceleration between the IP car and V8 Supercar would be line ball The silvias can now run 17in wheel/tyre combo now 2 in up from stock because they run in late model, the restrictors are a PITA but the motors have plenty of torque to compensate, a few more lbs of boost up high would be nive though A few silvias are being built now and they seem to be pretty competitive out the box

heres a link that explains all, basically they have early model and late model cars rotors, V8s, turbo etc http://www.iprasa.mx.com.au/rules.htm

My two nephews will be racing at Baturst that easter weekend in the IP class. There will be fantastic racing and plenty of variety and no V8 stupidcars in sight.

Wondering if competition car (IPRA) are welcome, not for judging just static display, nephews were talking about displaying our 4 race cars there. Their not show queens but fairly neat.

When ever your ready Trev :jamie:

From my own real world experience with a BT 20v. My engine is a wrecker engine, the comps range from 170-155( they should be round 190, the motor is tired). I have Autronic smc ems, ebay extractors and ebay trumpets. It made 185 flywheel hp on the engine dyno. Shift point is 8800, rev limit 9100, it has done probably 200 laps round mallala in practice and race conditions. It has been driven flat out for all those laps, you couldnt punish the motor that much on the street, trust me., if you think you can you are kidding yourselves The engine tuner( Allan Engineering in S.A at Mallala) was amazed at the hp and the torque although not huge the curve is nice and flat. When the motor finally goes bang I will rebuild it with decent arp bolts some nice cams and a little headwork, more comp, aiming for a little over 200hp with said mods. the motor doesnt breathe at all and runs like a clock. I hear all these stories about how the 20v's are crap. Internet talk is cheap :lol:

Good luck troy and I will second grass roots motorsport, its cheap for entry, you can talk to the drivers and have a good nose over the cars and the racing is always great.... Good Luck mate Cheers John

Good luck mate, hope you have a good run. How does the a arm work on the rear , thinking of doing the same on my car. Will your car be on display Friday night on gouger st. Cheers John

Thanks Stu, Yes its a Cossie 2.5 litre Merc, goes quite well also. The brakes are as big as my rims :D :hmm: , it stops very well and powers down beautifully, got to love 235/50/17's tyres

First race meet and passed my OLT Had my first race meet, passed the OLT and put the car on the trailer with no panel damage and still running

A few

had a photoshoot for Zoom mag yesterday, we are having all 4 cars featured in a bout 3 mths. Heres a few pics

Better pics

Looks good Troy :lol: :hmm: , Hopefully your old car will be racing this Saturday 8|

Got a few crappy phone pics courtesy the nephew, I'm 1300km away working on the SA/WA border :hmm: 8| :lol:

I'll probably be doing the chasing mate, but it will be good to get some more U2L cars out there SA Fibreglass did a splitter for me , its nice and strong and well fin ished S A Fibreglass Services 6 Mary St, Mawson Lakes, SA 5095 p: (08) 8349 6321 Cheers John

looks great mate, sounds like the cooling issues are fixed, have you tried puting a restrictor in the cooling system for higher temp. She must fly with the 3s in it . Congrats mate fantastic finished product. Cheers John

More pics

Hopefully, I may be in Ceduna working though :P , have to see how the week pans out

The rolla is finally 1 colour -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- heres some pics, wife emailed me some pics today, I'm 800 kms west of Adelaide :P Pick her up friday Pics arent great will get some when its back together. The wife says the paint looks good in the flesh Will have the same livery as the nephews KE30 but in a blue

Dead right there, the 2 litres struggle for air above 6000, a few guys in SA are toying with 1600-1800cc turbos as the rev range would be larger, slightly less torque and about the same HP. A 4AGZE turboed would be a good thing in IP

Here a link to all the Australian Improved production state associations and a link to the cams website they have all the dates there. Once you get involved in motorsport the bug bites :no: http://www.iprasa.mx.com.au/links.htm
