i hope you are going to a test and tune before the big day?

you know, to sort the 'gremlins' out...

unless that private driveway is enough, in which case - you are a very lucky person :D

PS - what tyres will you be running?

at least get it dynod before these 200kw atw claims are made also.
with NA tuning of small capacity engines the gap between 160wkw and 200wkw is huge.
its much like 1/4 mile times. the lower they get the harder it is to keep bumping them down

It has already been dyno'ed for the initial power output. It has had 2 more days of tuning done since with trumpet changes and chasing a mis-fire that was sorted yesterday.

Yes, there will be a test & tune where she will be running the 18's and a full interior. The gremlins being sorted out was discussed on the Pulsar forum plus allow her to get rid of the nerves so she can see how the car handles on a grippier surface than roadbase hotmix.

I've been talking to a few guys about bringing it over to race, but I want a spare motor and box etc befroe I come across, so I need to save abit more.. I'd want to be running low 10's or quicker if I came to aussie otherwise there isnt any point in coming over..

Correct on both accounts. Howevr, it took Nissan 2 years to BEAT 108hp/L. It took another 3 years for Honda to MATCH Nissan's 123hp/L.

You two are so Honda biased it's not even funny. At least I can appreciate the B16A and B18C (Type R) for the great motors that they are.

Weq comes onto PGA, and I've never seen him get knocked. The Nissan bashing on this forum WAY exceeds the Honda bashing on PGA.

Honda also made 100hp/L in 1989....I have no idea when Nissan first made 100hp/L out of one of their 4cyl motors?

Of course the Nissan bashing occurs alot here, most people I know who drive honda's are very much the same, Honda drivers are just arrogant lol

I don't know why everyone's still going on about this, untill there are some dyno charts or slips posted of this 'new' motor, there isn't much to say other than the bickering that's already going on lol.

From what I've read the SR16VE and SR20VE variants were released in 1997, whereas the B16A was released in 1989, thats a good 8-9 years it took for Nissan to get near Honda;) With the F20C being released in 1999, I don't know of any otrher 4 cylinder motor that has won as many awards as it has? Please correct me if these are wrong.

I'm not taking anything away from Nissan and their NEO motors, I wouldn't mind one in say a datto 1600 or 1200 ute:D

Yeh i try and keep things as unbiased as possible. i seriously have respect for good engineering in general. Most of the good engineers ive met also have the same idea. Narrowmind = bad.

umm dude.. honda is the most "bashed" car manufacturer ive ever heard about. i can prove it but im too lazy to post up links. from the forums ive been on honda is dissed by holden drivers, ford drivers, nissan drivers, bmw drivers, euro car drivers, mazda drivers etc etc.. too much to write down and just bcoz nissan is bashed a lil bit on this forum u wanna cry about it?

i mean ask one person around the streets whos not a honda fan. and theyll say "honda is rice"

and wen they actually see a honda pulling crazy times they then say "its bcoz theyre so light" but the main hondas are designed to be lightweight from the factory :rolleyes:

Which class will you be running at the summernationals. Super Street? very good and competitive class that one, it's a 11.00 to 12.99 DYO, need to qualify better than 12.99 to make the field..

when is summernationals? wouldn't wanna miss all the action... :)

i love hondas even though i drive a nissan myself.

friend has a civic coupe with a b18c, i love it. shape wise, they sick as cars

to achieve big power, ill just stick to my snail :]

summernational's is this weekend. which are the best days to go??
