FT-86 to be named FR-S...

[10sec rx7]

yeah because that cars in teh US don't run the numbers.......

MZ21's car is 6mph faster than the others over there that are making the power apparently... ill take the 6mph any day...

[Uwish]

But we all knock the US power figures but those fuckers seem to have the faster cars in general.

but they dont... 260rwhp and 101mph is not faster.. MZ21's car is making 254rwhp in its current tune and runs 106mph..

explain how that works?? they have more power and 6mph less.

there stockers make 150-160rwhp, ours make 130-135rwhp..

so something there is not adding up..

that P&L kit is nice. till it melts every bit of plastic in the engine bay on a 40deg day..

[Uwish]

Dale...in general not the FT86. Look at their evos and stis.

I lol'd at the placement to the turbo. Fuck that!

40°C or 40°F ? :D

Yeh they do get them going but it's proven there dynos read higher... So proven my new software has a Dyno jet mode on it.. I'll look it up on Monday to see what it makes..

haha i was about to say "where's the oil pump" but i guess an upside of that kit is that you don't need one.



the whatever sensor mount block on the air pipe isn't very elegant either.

wonder what the chances of fitting a PD supercharger with a WTA intercooler are? could mount it upside down like a miami.

[<---cop]

They love that turbo placement in the US.

I lol'd at how they started to think about cold air, which is a good thing, but some other guy then designed the other pipework.

Has voodoo finished the matador yet?

[ALLMTR]

The dayglo crew would probably like that turbo location

[seedyrom]

They wont be able to check it out, as they wont be able to open the bonnet without burning their fingers on the release latch.

[Roadsailing]

They wont be able to check it out, as they wont be able to pop the bonnet because the cable that triggers the release latch will melt.

fixed.

That said, I looked at a turbo 350Z in Dubai that had the turbo mounted just behind the left headlight, idled like shit but just a few wiring looms that were too close had been melted and it gets hot there occasionally.

Plastic radiator tanks love turbos near them

Just for reference, in that Motortrend Drag Race video the BRZ did a 0-60 of 6.3 and 14.9 1/4

[HoonBoy]

The VSport 86 just did a 1:10.4 at Wakefield.

[perthdrivers.txt]

Only a second behind that time attack IS200 with the 1UZ.... Nice

Dont the US dyno's typically operate with SAE J607 corrections and Dyno Dynamics use J1349?

From a thread over at evo oz:

"Example correction.
Dyno test conditions
Barometric pressure = 932 mb
Humidity = 68%
Temperature = 19 degrees C

J607 correction = 1.114
J1349 correction = 1.081

Base "uncorrected measured power" 236kW
J607 corrected power = 262.9 kW (Mainline J607 selected)
J1349 corrected power = 255.1 kW (Dyno Dynamics) "
