  1. Yep. Everytime I take POV videos incar, the sound is no where as close to how loud it really is. The exhaust and the gear whine is deafening.. but its all worth it when I mash it up.. and it looks like a diesel from behind
  2. I talked to lots of people, and the general consensus was that the Albins was supposed to be the best out there. I went absolutely nuts on my build because im picky as f**k. Anyways, dont get me wrong, you can def street my car...Its not hard. The most annoying bit is my clutch(OS Giken tripple) and clutch engagement. I dont have a clust booster, because it fowled my greddy plenum. So I had to buy some weird clutch master.. So now my clutch engages almost at the top, and its pretty much like a light switch.
  3. Yeah you try to make it quieter but it won’t make much of a difference I don’t think. The box is whiney as f**k. I will make a cover for the shifter, which will reduce it a little… but also remember that you’ll now have to shift through all the gears. It’s loud. When I shift into 1 at the lights, the car will jolt.. and I get weird looks from grandma’s and Sheila’s in their SUV’s. Also, people will notice when you downshift coming up to the lights… so you’ll get attention from everyone, inc cops(even when you don’t want it). That’s why I said it’s not really a street car anymore. Why are you looking at a sequential? Im making around only 540awkw.
  4. Here you go. Mind you if you have a nicer clutch it may not be that bad.. but you can hear the whine… trust me.. I used to think my gf’s whine was louder. IMG_4891.mov
  5. What car do you have sorry? Caldina? I've got one, but not in Aus. Its bloody loud. Its not really a street car anymore. I'll see if I can post up a video of me driving it normally.
  6. Fuel Economy? What's that? I went through 3/4 of a tank in about 7-8 laps...
  7. What he said. You cant go wrong with Plazmaman. If you can fit a 100mm, then might as well stick that in.
  8. They have had ALOT of complaints for a long time. Absolute fkn pricks, esp Peter Lewin. That flamin mongrel deserves a punch in his fkn nuts.
  9. Agreed. Happy to see Hyperf**kingShitTune isnt on your list. You say 650hp... assuming that's 650awhp, meaning 2 bar boost, so 100mm for sure.
  10. Same here, people said it is better then stock in terms of drivability. Tried driving my friends 32R with comp twin plate. So damn light feeling. Feels like driving a corolla.
  11. Or change the barometric pressure to sea level, like a popular old North Auckland Tuner does as well.
  12. Sadly whiteline. I think for subframe bushings, it might be ok as it doesnt really 'move' much. Even though, having viewed the whiteline and Nismo subframe bushes, If I had known before, I would have happily splashed out a bit extra for the Nismo ones.
  13. PLEASE DONT use WHITELINE BULLSHIT BUSHES. My rear diff bushings were destroyed after just a few 1000 k's.. and yes, they were done by a reputable shop. Replaced with Nismo bushings and its perfect. If the subframe is off, then it pays to replace all, especially if they have some age on them.
  14. I'm gobsmacked to hear people actually think the GayTek fan is an 'upgrade' for the RB motor... Either way, goodluck /unsub.
  15. Welcome along.. with all due respect though, personally, I'd put that money in the engine.
  16. Same boat. Only made 540awkw on 23~psi. Couldn't get anymore boost, IAT's shot up. Turbine speed was 102k, with around 28psi emap. Tuned to 11.8 up top. Did boost leak, spanner checked hot side. Running 4inch exhaust with just 1 muffler.. 60mm gate. f**kn turbo didnt make what I expected.
  17. Haha, you mean Hyperf**kingshitTune on the FAR FAR FAR Right corner.. with the same cranial capacity as a spec of sand.
  18. Chiming in.. Haven't read the thread, as I assume it's about f**kingTune, I mean Hypertune. My personal advice is to stay well clear of these dream boats. f**king dream boats roped me in and took over a year to make my f**king FMIC which didn't even fit to begin with like they promised, and then charged me double for the magic 'Heat Resistant' paint... Then they got my end tank sizes wrong. FFS! You had ONE f**kING YEAR PETER LEWIN. And you STILL f**ked it up. /RantEnd.
  19. Hah, I run a IC7, and monitor my temps IRT. I run a 19 row oil cooler so it takes a while to come up, about 20 mins of street driving in summer time. I baby the car till the temps come up. Coolant temps around 66 degrees by then(Nismo thermostat). But I cant flat shift till an hour of driving as my box needs to be around 67!!! I run a gearbox cooler behind the rear diff... Id be lucky to see 1500ks before I drop my oil(pump tune only for now).
  20. I'm guessing this is so your oil temps come up? Or is it coolant temps as well? Do you run oil coolers? What temps do you start driving yours at, and what grade oil?
  21. What questions? In your last post you mentioned assumptions. At no point did you have any questions, well, apart from what fuel, which is pump. Actually dont worry about it. Thanks anyway.
