hrmm. wonder if you could have a custom 1" spacer made...I really want that 380RS-C...bad...1260 kilos? that thing would be a blast to drive.

 

You could always stack two 1/2" spacers from Motordyne, you'd only need some longer bolts! I am sure Tony will give you a special deal if you dyno test this setup.

 

Noticed that its running MOTEC and look at this...



Theres no throttle bodies on that intake manifold.

TK

 

it uses individual throttle bodies - the carbon piece is the airbox for them

car can be yours for about $250k landed

 

say whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat? its a cool car and all but jesus....lol. how much just for the ITB getup & the carbon airbox

 

not available...it's only sold as a complete car (in Japan, though it can be brought here for competition use). This is not a street car...its a factory built race car, like the factory 911, M3, Aston, Viper, etc cars

 

Did Nismo retain the drive-by-wire with their ITB setup?

TK

 

I was wonderin about this too, thatd be a pita to make work.

 

not sure...I'm almost positive it doesn't

I think this is the same engine that is being used in the 08 ST1 class in Super Taikyu, but finding any meaningful info on that series or the spec of the car is really difficult

 

triple bump...bringing this one back.

hey blacktuner did you ever drop the C8R's in and tune it?

 

Nope, but I have developed a pretty slick 07 350z Cold Air Intake which has shown some serious gains I just need to play with the filter selection a bit and Supercharged a Lotus Elise. The cams will go in after I finish the CAI and choose an engine management.

 

gotcha gotcha. a blown Lotus Elise? leave the Z at home and bring it to Zdayz plz? lol

 

subscribing......

 

si, its my first good thread lol. ANYWHO...anybody else running any of the uber-aggressive JWT cams? C8, C8R, C9, G.A.?

 

When I tested a 3/4" spacer back in 2004, it actually made less peak power (and area) than the 1/2" spacer.

The test was conducted with a modified stillen intake and exhaust.

Given the similarity and trend of dyno results between a 1/4" spacer to a 1/2" spacer and the 3/4" spacer, ... I can't see how a 1" spacer with 30 HP gain is possible without other factors at work.

 

yeah sounded odd to me. BUT...if yall figure ever develop a 250 dollar spacer that makes 30 hp I'm in...i'll buy another hood and strut bar..lol

 

Jermaine or anyone ever get the JWT C8R cams installed and working?

.

 

JB,

if you are looking for some custom cams, I know where to get cams of virtually any size, custom made for your revup. same price as all the other cams on the market, too..... just let me know

 

Jermaine hasn't done his I know that
