"Running 327BHP with 329 ft/lbs Torque at 1.2 Bar. Not bad for an old Datsun!!! I'll go for some more boost once Tubby has had a little more settling in time. Should see well over 350 at 1.6 bar!!"
"wow thats a good result!! bet your happy with that out of interest is it the SR lump your running? "
"im moving from the states looking for some good forums. do you know the best forum to sign up to? i have a 97 eclipse gsx stroker. nice job on the datsun by the way. ill probably see it at some meets in the future. "
"yes mate its the SR20DET engine. The power is ok for now "
"haha the SR20DET is a baller motor man. people in the states cream over it. have to import the motor to here though coz it doesnt come stock in our 240sx cars. we got the k24det or some bull . i dunno how im gonna harness all my 700whp on the brittish country lanes. all we got here is straights and 90 degree turns. haha. new kind of driving. XD"
"the SR20 is a good engine. I'm sure you going to have issues over here in that no-one will have woprked on your car before. 700whp - impressive. Would like to see what figures it makes on UK dyno."
"i still havent dynoed it yet though. but someone on the forums over here dynoed at 698whp on the almost exactly the same setup as me. apart from he's running a 2.0L and mine is the 2.3L stroker motor. im running it at 35psi boost on the turbo at the moment. i know you use bar over there and im not sure what that converts to. but i think the only people who are going to be able to work on my car are evo shops. and also as far as tuning goes i can do pulls and log it on a laptop and email it to my tuner in the states. its gonna be hard to get it insured though. i called a lot of insurance companies and they said they couldnt do it coz it wasn't on their records?"
Keep trying insurance mate you'll find someone soon enough. It's the same with my car with it being modified rare and an import.
Got mine all texted up today and it flew through it's MOT on Monday so I'm back on the road!!
