Re: RICESP Water Injected RX7
Quote:
RICESP is allot faster now then when we had this little test day (from March last year) at the strip where he went in the passenger seat We took him for a drive a month or so ago at a few levels down from where it is now and he said it was much faster than his drag car (seat of pants acceleration) need to post up the VBOX figures across the test increment, picture is worth a 1000 words

Re: RICESP Water Injected RX7
So here is a report showing a mates drag car v RICESP RICESP = 2.57 seconds (just in one gear, great show of power band) Simon Ward = 2.64 & 2.69 seconds (high power at start of test, then less grunt shows up at higher speed, gear) Drag car specs: 3.3lt Holden 202 (very old school set up!) 5 speed Lenco clutchless shift gearbox 1007kg car (1077kg as run in this test) 35psi boost (see logging) Ran 6.75 @ 107mph 1/8th mile goat track in this VBOX file at night (won the event lol) *2 back to back runs* RICESP: is the 2.48second 90-140 test std (3 gear acceleration test) 1310kg run weight Specs listed many times already! Here is a pictures of the car. Bloke is a local legend, basically wins against all comers (I'm serious) has been running at that track for 30 years! Oh and his beast is water injected too :hurray: I helped him jet the carburetors and set the ignition timing on it till it got as fast as it would run Via the VBOX logging, this was done during the event and these final two runs are back to back from the evening finals (night runs interesting with no head lights and poor track lighting lol!@!! (have no mph boards at local Goat track! so VBOX is invaluable! Tim cards work but run faster at track due to roll out ghetto timing lights common to ALL Drag tracks, VBOX shows slower times (depends on how deep you stage!) always as its recording exact start & not guessing like light beam bullshit!) he was amazed with what "modern technology can do" BTW it has no wastegate so the boost is max it will run!!!

Re: RICESP Water Injected RX7
This is another interesting comparison: From my collection of VBOX tests http://www.riceracing.com.au/vbox-ii...ing-tuning.htm
90kmh to 135kmh (best power gearing for the stock RX7) see rpm logging. RICESP V Spirit R Type A (stock standard) Car specs: Spirit R Type A 1335kg as run 280PS factory rated engine (100% stock std no mods at all) Car ran 0-100kmh in 5.55 seconds & 13.85 second @ 104.78mph RR V-BOX Recorded for 1/4 mile *no roll out* Time = 5.06 seconds & 158 meters RICESP: ~21psi Rice Racing Engineered Water Injected Monster 1310kg as run Power is over double a factory RX7 (see actual VBOX RR rwkw measure) so roughly double the power, double the acceleration & half the time required to do it and distance as well Time = 2.21 seconds & 69 meters VBOX File report

Re: RICESP Water Injected RX7
Pete,
I am not sure why your images doesn't come through. I don't known how to re-configure the image limit settings. Perhaps if you sign in with another name such as RiceRacing2 etc, you might be able to post more images.

Re: RICESP Water Injected RX7
Here is the 3 rd gear acceleration of the stock RX7 SP, tested by Motor Magazine with Correvit digital timing.
RX7SP stock 1995 test 204kw 276bhp claimed power factory rated engine (100% stock std no mods at all) 100kmh = 0 sec 110kmh = 0.87 sec 120kmh = 1.83 sec 130kmh = 2.84 sec 140kmh = 4.58 sec RICESP You guess the power 100kmh = 0 sec 110kmh = 0.51 sec 120kmh = 0.99 sec 130kmh = 1.51 sec 140kmh = 2.01 sec

Re: RICESP Water Injected RX7
I just found 2 original issues of Wheels Magazine from 1996 where they do a Top Speed shootout of Australia's Fastest Cars. They are on their way to me when I get them will scan the full article and put it up.
Features my two fav cars of all time Mazda RX7SP and the Ferrari F40 and a whole heap of other vastly inferior cars They also feature acceleration tests too and I will post up some more comparisons

Re: RICESP Water Injected RX7
Magazines arrived and keeping on that topic I got given an original!!! "Rotary Engine" by Kenichi Yamamoto published by Toyo Kogyo in 1971 a work mate found it in our library and thought it appropriate it went to a good home. < Super rare book, last one I seen on E-Gay went for like $375 or so.
Anyway, been flat out catching up with customer orders and car work, so apart from brief test drives on Sundays (1 hr of week where I can scratch my balls) not much opportunity to do a serious test. I'll get around to scanning the F40 and stock SP test and also post up some performance data of the new specification which I have been putting through durability trials the last few months... Only problem I have encountered (well not really a problem as such) is the normal operating torque capacity of the twin plate carbon clutch. When the friction material is below a certain temperature it will only hold around 600Nm it needs some use to (higher face temperature) to hold over 700Nm (maximum tq rating).... I will have to start limiting the boost pressure (and power) @ lower engine speeds to hold the immense amount of mid range power/torque the water injection allows the rotary engine to make

Hi Peter its Grant from MRC, thought i would take your advice and get signed up on here and start feeding off the WI knowledge that is on here.
Are the coils you use for motorbike applications? |
