Yeah, for some reason it does sound a little off on the videos...it sounds like a typical RB in person. I think it's my camera?

where did you get 350hp number from...

A friend of mine has a RB25det, stock turbo on 10psi, AEM EMS (base map), ect...he made 310whp.

I have upgraded turbos, 10psi, AEM EMS (slight tune), plus some other little things...and my car is noticeably faster. 350 seems like a fair guess to me.

what did you paint did you use to paint the car with?

It was painted with a gray primer mixed with regular black paint...not exactly sure on the mix as the painter kind of played with the color until it was dark enough. The color is kind of weird, it's like a flat with a little bit of a shine to it.

cool vids gotta love the inline 6, i gotta Q for ya about ur rims and tires though im guessin you have the 17X9's +15 up front and teh 17X10's +12 in the rear. what tires are you runnin and do you think the 17X10 +25 would've allowed you to fit more tire without gettin crazy with the fenders or would they hit the coilovers?

why do you need 2 tachs?

+1 and especially where it is at. it looks kinda slow? Slower than 350 hp.

The tach in the dash doesn't read right because it's set up for the KA motor (4 cylinder) instead of an inline 6. If you look closely the stock tack is reading like 15,000 rpm. Apparently you can get the stock tack fixed or something but I don't have the time and just bought a new tach that works.

Yes, I could have run a higher offset on the rears but the 315s are the "small" version of what I want to run. The over fenders are mainly for running drag tires.

The Diablo i waxed earlier today didn't think it seemed slow ;)

do you have coilovers in the rear?? im just tryin to probe you for tire questions, i also have terrbile traction issues im bpu 2jz with 405 to the wheels. i wanted to run some meats i.e. 275-315's as well but i didnt know whether to get the 17X10 +25 or the +12 i dont want to hit the coilovers but i dont wanna get crazy with the fenders . i was even considering getting the +12' and having them takin down at a machine shop to a +18 or +20.
any info would be appreciated

I have TEIN flex coil overs... and from the way it looks, I could have done +25 and still had the 315s fit (theres at least 10mm between edge of tire and coilover). I saw a picture a while back of some guy with 305s or 315s that got them to fit with a roll and pull, IIRC he was running a +27 offset.

My next set of rims are probably going to be around +20 to accommodate the 335s I want to run.

I'm running 17x9 +15 in the front with 255/40/17s haha

Yep, they molded the over fenders and painted it.
