457bhp from 1300cc

Yeah, its only 3" but does look large.

 

The engine was built by a friend of mine - I made the engine loom, fitted and mapped the Syvecs S8. Its running a 350Z drive by wire throttle so we can use auto blip on down shifts and has the bike sequential gearbox. We can do full throttle up shifts too, so no lag at all :D

 

Going to give it a go on race fuel soon - should go over 500bhp.

350 drive by wire throttle with auto blip - rather than the 370 system?

Good work Jez :)

Does that mean you can make any engined car with TBW auto blip on down shift? Can the S6 do this? And is it rev matched like on the DRM on 370 or GTR for example?

Yes, assuming the gearbox / shifter has got the appropriate sensors. On this car we've got a strain sensor on the shift linkage so the ECU knows if you're trying to up or down through the gears.

stock the Zed wont do this as Jez says but with a strain gauge fitted yes it is doable, but Bennet we are only quoting to use a S6 not the all singing and dancing S8 like Jez is using on this build.

What race fuel are you going to use?

Got a couple of pictures of this on Saturday -

 

Got a shot or two of you in the Zed as well - here's the one I think looks best

 

Weather and track were pretty close to perfect - but my tyres lost about 2mm off the rears and that's without some of Dan's (Ekona's) little sideways entertainments!
