Awsome stato man,

Any future plans ?

Love it.

[SirNemesis]

Thanks guys. Not sure on future plans, I've got a project car I'm trying to dedicate some money towards, so the Stato will hopefully be left alone for awhile.

[ducker85]

sweet ride man. tohse pic's are wild. had it on the dyno yet?

[SirNemesis]

I haven't had it on the dyno since I installed the cam. The last dyno was 268.5rwkw, but that was with the 6L unopened.

[redcv6]

bloody unreal mate, love the whole thing.

[VNexecutive]

love the stato man, everytime i've seen it its had something new, first the manual, then the 6L, now the cam haha

[SirNemesis]

Cheers mate

Thanks mate, will do. The other project involves a lot of horsepower in a nice car from Sweden

Dude what was the dyno read out of that run ?

That dyno run was prior to the cam getting installed. 92mm throttle, 1-7/8" extractors, twin 3" exhaust and a tune = 268.5rwkw

[Vt_vic]

any chance of this going down the quarter?

[SirNemesis]

Yeah it does visit the quarter occasionally, but I haven't been able to get a decent time out of it yet.

In its current setup I've raced it twice, but I screwed up each run a different way, so there time isn't very impressive.

First run: Perfect launch, 1.7 second 60ft. Then I messed up the 1-2 shift and hit the limiter. I then hit the limiter on the 2-3 shift again, and missed 3rd gear. Took 2 attempts to get it into 3rd, and then hit the limiter on the 3-4 shift again! Did a 13.1 @ 108mph that run, so heaps of room for improvement.

Second run: Shithouse launch. 2.7 second 60ft with alot of wheelspin. Perfected every shift though. 13.1 again, but at 114mph.

Looking at the info for both these runs, a low 12 shouldn't be a drama, but I haven't got it that fast yet.

[Vt_vic]

doesnt the rip shifter help getting in to third without missing? easy 12's though would you say the car would be near 2000kg's with the audio stuff in it?

[SirNemesis]

It does help, but the T-56 is a fussy bitch. If you hit the limiter, the gear doesn't want to engage properly even though the ripshifter has lined it up nicely.

The car is 2088kg with the audio gear, but i ditch the amps and sub when running down the quarter, which saves about 100kg.

[Vt_vic]

are you using slicks? even with 2 tonnes it can still pull a 12 easy. nice

[SirNemesis]

Yeah i'm using slicks, but 18" radial slicks for brake clearance

[walesy]

sweet looking ride mate, and plenty of power too, quickest time i ran was only a 13.1 and that was with no ****ups haha

[kniever]

nice nem, didnt realize you had a thread up, when i started reading the thread i was thinking 'hey someone else has done it too' lol, anyways looking good as always

[ewt]

Max Power is at 6500rpm? Isn't that where the limiter is?

Anyways, like your Stato mate. Are you looking down the path of Forced Induction?

Josh.
