    Oh and BTW I am really keen on getting a s6/7/8 RX7, so this will most likely have to go to make that happen. If anyone out there is interested, let me know. Cheers.

    No it is full carbon. I used to work for an advanced composites group. We made bits for Neal Bates, 888 Motorsport etc, Also Will Power and myself made the carbon fibre steering wheel that he and some other guys are using in Indycars.

    The car also came out with electric windows (all still working) and vaccum operated central locking!!

    Not yet. It has an exhaust leak at the moment (which pissing me off!) but Im waiting to fix that because Im just now in the process of building a fresh head for it. But should be soon. I have timed 0-100 and it is about 6sec at the moment. It does run out up top, has a small exhaust housing.


    Also the paint is actually original! It was sitting under a house for a while I believe. The bonnet is crazy cracked, but the rest is in amazing condition for being 42 years old.

    G'Day guys,

    Long time no post, but hey. Just thought I would let you all know that I am thinking about swaps for an R34 Skyline. If anyone is interested?? Also I still have my R1, which alternatively Im looking to swap for an R32 Skyline.
    Cheers.

    Hey guys,

    Got the new head on and running. I am suprised at how different the fuel maps need to be, it would hardly run!! But have got it sorted enough to be driveable at the moment and can tell that it will definately be more powerful and torquey. Good news cause I will wind the boost back down to keep total power the same but much less stress on the engine.

    I might be acquiring a new toy soon and will be selling my benz if this is this case. If anyone out there is interested let me know!

    Cheers guys.

    Well it made 250hp at the wheels back down on 10psi. 350ft/lb torque. Pretty happy with that. Has anyone else out there ran their high comp RB30 on only 10psi? If so, did you get around that figure?
