Thanks guys, I built this one from a standard road car. Its taken me 5 years to get it to where it is now.
There is a few photos, early in the build in my album on this site if you want to go looking. the car looks a little different now w spoilers and 15`s but you`ll get the idea.

Congratulations to the new long time record holder for Winton till you get there again!
I had no doubt you would do it even though you are always juggling endless things. You are adding to the legend of "Datsuns" worldwide

edit: let us know about the auto converter upgrade for the 13second project there are 2 others interested.

Thats very good power Aztec! especially for only 15 Psi. What are the head and cam mods?
Is the RPM correct at the bottom of the graph?

Thanks for posting, its great to see other turbo A 12`s making good power.

how did you get 300LBS of torque @ 4000rpm!!!! and only 170hp @ 6K rpm???
Am I reading something wrong?

Because its a roller dyno, the torque figure would be at the tires.

Tire size and gearing could move this figure up or down. But the HP figure shouldnt change. The Hp is calculated using roller speed and torque applied to the roller.

Eg. if you tested a car in 3rd gear the torque figure would be higher than if you tested in 4th, but the Hp would read the same.

Here is a youtube clip of race 1 from the front of a BMW. You dont see the Datto till the 3min50 mark. There is a race restart just after this point because of a red flag incident.

I have some in car footage when its on the high boost setting but its bad video quality.
