You could just drive it normally and change it earlier. Mine has never crossed 2000k's even

Ive heard of OCD works. Hows the spool noise before and after? Feel free to PM links or videos if you want. I've got a good mate that works for a reputable turbo company who says to stay away from them as theyve had a few turbos that came back with lots of issues. The other reason for sticking with EFR is that its just a drop in replacement. I was looking at the g45-1500 at cost price, but that would mean new down pipe, new lines, new intake piping etc etc.

haha, the world will always have KB warriors! I'm shipping my car to japan this year, so want to upgrade before I ship! E85 is extremely expensive here so will leave it on pump.

Hi guys, Eyeing up the 9280, and wondered whether the OEM surge slots is the same as the T51R mod perhaps? Has anyone done the T51R mod on their EFR, or even any other turbo? Anyone do that locally in australia perhaps?

Def happens. Happened to mine too. Have pics to prove. Super picky, I noticed the OP slowly dropping.

Doesn't really do any good, especially without billet gears. The oem pump is crap. If it doesn't break, the screws holding the backing plate will come loose.

Has the VCT bulge on the intake(Actually, you can see the VCT solenoid on the intake side, so looks like an RB25, but thats not a RB26 intake for sure. Wouldn't be surprised if its a rb25 that someone has just 'slapped' on a turbo on the factory ecu. If its running like a dog, then the dead giveaway is the intake.. missing the AFM.

😵‍💫

Personally, I would, but it depends. On my everday car like a swift or corolla, I dont mind, but def not on something that has a bit of power. I used cheap chinese tyres on my corolla for years.. no issues. Mind you its gutless. The quality of the stuff coming out of china, and the rest of the asian countries def is getting better.

Heres one as we speak!

Trying my luck here to see if anyone's willing to let go, or upgrading from, before I look at buying new. I have a mint condition EFR9180 w 1.05(powder coated compressor cover) too for sale or swap. Done less then maybe 3-4000ks.

Personally I'd stick with ATI.. either 750 or 1000hp version, and stick a trigger kit too while youre at it. Lots of choices for trigger kits.. dont have to get PRP if you dont want to. Either way, wont get much change from 2knz. In saying that, the NZ Wiring CAS is an excellent upgrade too from stock.. lots of guys run them. Depends how much you want to fork out really and how hard youll be pushing your setup.

Me and me friend did this on his 33R in his basement carpark only using the torch from our phones. That top starter bolt musta taken us about an hour alone. Needless to say I am now an expert in removing R boxes in a basement carpark with iphone torch and limited number of tools

Obviously. Trying to figure out how much of a hit it will have on my response.

Thanks lith. Wow thats hideous haha. under 150kw by 4 and 250 by 5. In comparison, I'm making 260 by 4, and 370 by 5.. and thats in 5th gear as well. From 4k the line is almost linear. Ive been looking at the 9280... Not sure if that will get me 4 digits either. I'm so addicted to the response that I dont really want to lose it.

I am still after response, but I want to see what kind of a hit it will take.. I want to take my car over to Japan soon.

Get a lambda, and learn to not drive like a dick on the roads.

On the topic of the HKS GT III Turbo's.... What about GT75115_BB? https://www.hks-power.co.jp/en/product/turbo/universal/index.html Ive been having a look at this to replace my EFR9180 with. Theres a few cars that made 1250+hp with this on racegas: https://www.hks-power.co.jp/product/turbo/universal/example.html Anyone run this yet?? Especially on a 3.0 or 3.2 Perhaps?? Super interested..

🤢🤢🤮🤮🤮🤮🤐

I posted one a few replies up. Before I parked her up, I did lots of highway pulls. I def noticed that the ECT was alot more stable. Did lots pulls in high gears to redline and I was def happy. Safe to say my ECT issues were completely fixed.

Which sequential? Do you know the ratios? Assuming your first will be super long as well, making it seem more laggy. Plus you're going to be running a massive turbo, and its a precision, so will be laggy as hell on the streets. Expect to be gapped by prius's. Precisions dont do compressor maps which kinda sucks. What work have you done to your head? Please make sure your engine builder degree's your cams!! We just played with the cams on mine and its alot more responsive and made a wee bit more power.

So you went to see him 3 times, and he couldnt tighten the belts..?!!?!? Time to find a new mechanic.

hah. We put the 1 piece shaft on last night.. and the vibration is back. Anyways, cars going in storage for another year soo.. cbf.

They asked me to measure from the 2 flanges 3 times and average it out, thats all I know of.
