How strong are the 6 speeds
#31
Well the car is producing that bhp - if people don't believe it is then fine. Turbo seems to be having no problem at all producing that power.
The mapper is Jonny Armstrong @ Ai Autosport (as on dyno printout). He is, in mine(and Neils) opinion, the best mapper out there.
Gearbox is a 5 speed ppg.

I reckon the problem is here that no-one, ever, anywhere have managed 679bhp on a GT35 especially on a 2liter. Dyno printouts can be "adjusted" quite easily to show whatevver bhp the customer wants to see or believe. Your (and Neils) opinion that he's the best mapper out there means nothing. The fact that no-one, ever, anywhere has blown up more Subarus on his rolling road does however speak volumes.

Well you tell me the name of this person that Jonny has built and mapped there car and it blew up on the rollers. As far as I am aware one car has blown up on the rollers but Jonny had never touched it and it was in for a power run. At the end of the day that is fine if you'd don't believe me, but just cause you have not heard of it does not make it not possable. Back to topic this is about gearboxs not my car.

Did Matt Clarke not build your engine though? You believe what you prefer as no-one ever will convince you otherwise. Whats the weather like on your planet matey?

Built my block so what Jonny asembled the rest and mapped the car. What is it too you at least have the ***** to tell me your name cause you seem to know me and your just hiding behind a user name and posting on a topic that has no relivants to do with you
#37
@subarudude I don't know what your problem is matey but I suggest that if you have nothing constructive to add to this conversation that you butt out.
Oh and who exactly are you? You on scooby ireland?

The facts of the matter is, that turbo will not produce that power FACT!!!!
Some of the best known Scoobies in the country tuned by the best tuners in the country with very similar specs aren't getting anywhere near those figures so please tell us your secret.
Infact several well known builds with GT40R's arent getting those figures either.
Get your ****, your cars **** over here and come up against proven cars and drivers. I'll put money on the fact you'll get your **** kicked by cars pushing less power than your "680bhp"

Hmmm ok, well there is only one way to do this and thats take the car to a totally different rolling road and run it there
Still I have to agree with Stevebt, even garratt say it wont run more than 600bhp, and they designed and built it
Actually I will also add, if your running 680bhp with a good 500lb ft of torque, the PPG gearbox should be in bits by now, they aint exactly brill

The 6 speeds are very strong, hence why people with 500+bhp run them
And have you seen the graph on rcm's website for the gobstopper?
http://www.rogerclarkmotorsport.co.u...ower_graph.png
605bhp without nos (and I think they will be using race fuel for that, but its a damn fast car )

OK So you've posted the Gobstopper spec up, well done.
But that is not YOUR car is it!!!
I have no doubt whatsoever that their car and yours is worlds apart and they are not running a GT35 they are Running a GT4094 with Nitrous. Either that or they've taken a step backward since I was talking to their mapper (Dave Rowe) in the pits at Brands a couple of weeks ago.

i know my car and theirs is no where near same car and i bet you that graph is the power at the wheels not the engine like mine so add on another 100bhp for transmission loss and there car will be over 700 bhp i put there car up too show you what a gt 35 is capable not what my is like. yes they are now running a gt 40 but are getting over 900bhp. all of roger clark graph is at the wheels not engine

i believe lisa is his other half.
good figures if accurate. and congrats neil....just keep it between the hedges this time mate.......
only problem is as a lot of local fellas over here found out to their cost AI is not the best of mappers and resulted in numerous cars suffering. all led to excessive expense for some to put their cars right.
que..... can the rr set up be "adjusted" to give better results or is there a fail safe to prevent this??

We stick with ours, they stick with theirs, your best bet is to bring it over on a rolling road day/shootout and run it when other cars are there
And as for rolling roads, I believe they can reduce the drag? to give higher figures.
Tony

@ andymac - yup, i'm neils other half as you know. You also know what the car is and that the figures are accurate as will be proved by drag times next month.
@tony - these figures are accurate. As andymac said I'm Neils other half and know exactly the time and money that has gone into this car and the parts used so I can categorically state that the car is producing that power and that nothing has been altered.
This is a drag car - if we said it was producing more bhp than it actually is then it would be shown up pretty quickly on the strip. lol. What exactly would be the point in that. As I've said, car will be at bishopscourt next month. See times if you don't believe power output.
And can everyone not actually offering advice about the gearbox please vacate this thead as you're not helping and it's not necessary. I've already complained about a certain reply. Just because you can't get your head around power figures does not give you the right to say they are wrong.
And also as previously stated, roger clark was using a 35 before he upgraded and he got power figure of 700+ without NOS. That alone shows that turbo is capable of this. Extensive research was done with the help of Ollie Clark when deciding on the parts for this car. So if you are a more accomplished engine tuner than roger clarke motorsport and Ai Autosprt then perhaps you are more at liberty to be involved in this discussion. But even if you were, it does not mean you are GOD when it comes to these things.
Rant over.

As I stated I run a 6 speed box with absolutely no issues. I don't know what power mine is running since its last tweak but its more than my sig says. sleepersy has broke a 6speed box with 620bhp and has bought a special box??? Its up to you?? 6 speed cheap, uprated box expensive
#55
Oh, and one more thing.
This engine is identical to Roger Clark's engine, bar the valves and a few minor things. We've went a slightly different route. He has now upgraded to a 40 but was running a 35 and getting similar power figures to ours. And I don't see how you can dispute the power figures accomplished by their gobstopper car. Are you suggesting that they are inaccurate? Noone seems to want to reply to this specific point. RCM were using exactly the same turbo as us and getting similar figures. This shows the turbo is capable of producing those figures reardless of what you think.
@daz - If you're such good mates with Ollie Clark ask him and he'll tell you the same thing.

I will hold my tounge until you have run the 1\4 mile. If your bhp claims are correct a high 9 or low 10 is surely the expected time.
This is the same car that ran 410bhp on standard 440 injectors!
The same car that at 500 plus bhp ran high 12s
Im really looking forward to your timed runs as the truth will emerge. When you make bhp claims like you have matey you have to back them up with results not dyno printouts from your chums.
