3rd generation RX-7's / Slow FD gets the win!

Quote from: HaywardRotary;843281Tuning cars cell by cell is easy when you\'ve been given timing maps by someone else.
That info is easily transferable to another ecu as is fueling values even if inputs can be done cell by cell.
It dont take a rocket scientist to copy that sort of valuable info from people like Jaydee and Kerim who have been emminently helpful to others.

I\'m not going to get drawn into this but I will clear this point up, jay mapped the car on microtech we ran out of resolution so in the winter I changed to the motec, during which time jay had committed to work with James on his car. Blitz stepped in and has been faultless. The timing maps were impossible to transfer as we had to run alot of timing on the microtech, which had it been directly transferred to the m800 or pfc for that matter the engine wouldn\'t have lasted long.
This is our hobby, I dedicate alot of time and money to it and for privateers I don\'t think we do too bad.

Quote from: Grant Monkhouse;791823Read post above. It was all in jest. Just as what others have done about others cars ;)

yes grant but those jesting about others can, as they have achieved, you have done nothing other than get peoples backs up.

Quote from: Grant Monkhouse;791750What rpms did you hit then?

To make hitting a 10 second pass even better Carl and the team ran faster than impeys methanol monster who only managed 11\'s!!! Ha. Real shame as that car should be doing consistent 8\'s and pushing towards the 7\'s

cant believe you\'ve written that, you seem to be underestimating the time and money that goes into this process. chris has been down to 8.4 and i for one respect him and tim to keep pushing boundries and learning as they go and sticking with it when it seems to be an uphill battle.
if and when you are there then you can say what you like in my opinion but you are no where near and neither am i, lets not forget many years ago reworx low 9.6 and of course ross @dragon 9.1 @ 158mph. we are all playing catch up here...

Quote from: Grant Monkhouse;788208I was at Carls today, discussing my engine and drag racing of all things. So if you wait a little while and let me learn to drive up the strip properly I will be out racing you guys.

My aim is for a 10 second pass and to go off the clock of the rx4 which goes to 130mph.

Sounds like some healthy competition for you there blitz :Party

Quote from: HaywardRotary;788095Considering that at least 6 cars in the world are running 13b engines and doing 6 second 1/4 miles it\'s clear that the boundaries of the 13b are not even remotely being got close to in this country let alone porting.

we are all well aware of this carl.. be good to see some of your cars start doing some respectable times :3gears-rh

Quote from: Grant Monkhouse;786947I wonder why many other people don\'t run them? Correct me if I\'m wrong but there isn\'t any of the guys in the hks drag series running PP\'s?

Chris impey is running semi PP\'s but that doesn\'t count as a PP in my eyes.

we don\'t run them because we haven\'t pushed the bounderies of the side ports, its not all about big holes :2Rolleyes

Quote from: Grant Monkhouse;787428Not all cars are mapped on dynos.

I do believe Ross used to map his car on the road? Correct me if I\'m wrong. And he still has the record for fastest street legal car and the highest terminal speed?

So from what a few people have said on here about fd boxes breaking it takes something near 600+bhp, so surely that would mean the car was near that power figure??

That or steve had gear boxes made from chocolate? But I doubt that?

there are many factors that can contribute to breaking of transmission components from chassis bracing to power delivery. to quote a power figure and say it will break at that point is ridiculous.
