    RWD is something i wont mind, but it is also something that can wait.

    the more important question about the engine and its parts was thankfully answered by brad.

    but all that work for just that end product?!?!?! which is why the sceptism is kicking in.

    Spend £30k on it yet people will still say why didnt you just buy a 200sx or Skyline if RWD is that important?
    Still here somewhere........

    Aside from the point of view that this could be a lot of money to spend for little reward, could we try and keep this thread somewhere near the original topic, please?

    Thanks all.

    I am borrowing Nevs mower for a minute or three...

    Nick, its more the absurdness that Maz actually tries to make us believe this will actually make the project flor which is galling for all of us to take. Especially when input and information that she doesnt want to hear is being slung back at the original poster.

    Hence the degeneration.

    Now back on topic of RWD a galant in your garage

    Hi,
    Good to know that the internals can take more power. N2O or as daft as it sounds LPG could be the answer here
    Nos ... I don't need to explain the performance advantages of that surely?
    LPG ... Equivalent octane of 116 All you need is more advance via a remap or other ECU. I'm hoping to go down this route. I know they just advance the timing by 6 degrees on Efi Range Rovers. Oh and it's 51p a litre!
    Cheers,
    Gavin

    Higher octane but less energy for an equivalent amount. I read liquid phase injection can potentially increase power but has not been successful so far.

    Indeed: the lower calorific value means that the increased timing is only reallly getting you back the power you lose.
