300zxtt Aka Rollin

Most recent dyno day saw 355 rhwp peak but alot more torque and mid range power, this was a bit lower than last time since i increases the VCT cut off point and backed the ignition advance off as i intended to really increase the boost.
Very happy with how the car drives at the moment, teh power figure might not sound like much but it is alot on the street especially since so much power is available at lower rpm now.
Even so i will still write another chip this week with a more agressive tune and possibly run it on the dyno again in a few weeks, just out of curiosity reall, ive got a few different chips i can run back to back now and see which one is best for street,
heres some recent pics

[trounced]

[unclepaulie]

Yeah nah. There are a few places where you can fit your hand in a VR4 engine bay.

Is a clean looking car though. I've always had a huge soft spot for these. If it wasn't for the expense of maintaining them I would have imported one a while back. Found a gorgeous gold TT manual 2 seater in Japan, but ended up going with a Celsior. The polar opposite really!

i'd like to emphasise where i said 'looks' im just saying it looks awesome. i know ours has more room hehe.

Yeah, I'm with the other guys. I've always had a love for these cars. Yours seems like a really nice example. Its funny really they don't really look 20 years old. there shape seems timeless.

Just like NSX's, Supra's, RX-7's, all of them look like modern cars. Especially IMHO the RX-7, they could be relaunched today and look like a 2009 car.

 

[frozen]

i agree with you there brad. i used to wish i had an rx-7 but now feel they are a little small.. and all the girls i know think a supra is a chicks car LOL

 

[Macca]

hahaha, I wanna meet these chicks you know if one of 'em are driving round in a Supra.
