hey shane you will be at competition with the rajab brothers, word on the street is they have a killer 30/26 combo to put into the racecar after they have pushed the rb30 to the limit, still havent used methanol either

sorry if u took my sarcasim the wrong way, am not at competition with any 1 as my interests are street cars and doing it untubbed! i enjoy racing and im not into it for bragging rights or to bag or compare to others i just want to acheive the goals i set for myself...end of story i admire how serious people take there racecars but i cant see the value in something that i cant use on the weekends or go on a cruise therefore i am building a show quality streetcar that pleases my needs but in saying that i know that 1000rwhp and a 10' tyre in un un-modified full weight vh are capable of running low low 8's and over 175 mph!!! so i dont know were the limit of untubbed vl's will lie but it certainly aint over yet, iv'e got another mate that has run an 8.2 @164 on a 9 inch tyre but in a corolla and its only 100 or so kgs lighter then a vl so yeah im sure eventually mid 8's are not out of the question
as for 26/30's there a good thing and i know of 3 and 1 of those is in WA that will most certainly run into the 7's in the very near future (yeah ur one of em Robbo ) BUT they will never make the hp that a properly built rb26 stroker deal will make hence y these 2.8ltr deals are reliably makin 16-1700 hp and running 180-190mph
this is some info from another forum
reeces gtr is makin around 1600-1700hp on 38psi on methanol fuel,it makes full boost at around 5800rpm and,it increases horsepower by over 1200 in the space of 1000rpm,NOW THATS COMING ON HARD!!!!!
they have run 51psi in testing on the dyno and it was just climbing they reckon,they fully believe they could make over 2000hp with this motor,but wont bother as they cant get the 1700hp to the ground now.
the motor is a 2.8L with some f1 inspired technology and ideas in there,and get this,they were makin 1560hp and did not open the motor for 3 years......3 YEARS!!!!!! they stripped it down and everything was perfect,the only sign of wear was the piston pins havin 4 thou of bow in them and thats it!!!! they currently use the same motor to make the power they do now and have not had to open it up since it was built.
now thats reliability.

corri,
The box i got has been built with 25 bits Its basically an RB25 box... (so does that mean im sick yet?)
Ask Shane
And Mark, Its getting polished dont you worry

yeh didnt want it polished up from john coz when i woulda done the inlet pipes the finish might be different between polishers....
But John dropped the price for me coz it wasnt polished so that helped too!!
What a champ!!!!!
Corri, you gonna throw some 19s on the beast so then you can be officially sick... Btw you should replace the gates blue hose with the stainless braid one like how i will have :P
