Butters

At the time the box went in it was a brand new ATI 1000hp balancer. It's getting on a bit now but the noise from the box hasn't changed in the last 3 years. It would be interesting to try another one. I think I am going to experiment with taking the fan off with the motor hot and see if this actually works before I drop coin on a thermo fan setup.

zero expert on WMI, just never seen anyone actually make power with it. More used to keep an engine alive when being pushed on knock limited fuels. In lots of examples, if not setup correctly people go backwards with WMI. again no personal experience with this, just what I have seen from the side of a dyno booth

Sorry, can I confirm what fuel you are using ? As I read it, I assume its 98 octane with methanol injection on top(with water?) ? or are we talking straight methanol ? If you are on 98 octane those power numbers are pretty close to what you would expect for a 6466. You will get another 100kw with E85.

Saw this video today from Adam LZ. Long story short is he is claiming that the load from the engine fan once the fan clutch heats up(engaged) is increasing the getrag rattle(at idle) when you don't have a dual mass flywheel. Before I go buying an electric fan setup .... Anyone heard of this ? I must admit when my car is cold the getrag is pretty quiet and I do notice the rattle after it is all warmed up. I've always assumed this is due to the gearbox oil temp and tolerances of metal.

Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox !

Group dedicated to people who have had failures and poor outcomes. Good dozen posts so far. Probably the worst two examples And this one apparently damaged a sequential and engine block(40k+ damage)

Kinda glad I never got to this .. https://www.facebook.com/groups/1483859159195077

Thanks mate, thought you might know the answer.

Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo. Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?

I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed. $30k++ for sequential. I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.

I got the ARC M079 due to the space constraint. Been running mint for the last 3 years. Plazmaman also seems like a really solid choice but not used myself. Hunt around for a better price but this is what I have - https://www.rhdjapan.com/arc-brazing-intercooler-smic-m079-bnr32.html

Maybe been mentioned but I would have thought with a straight gate you would have to run both ports. As you don't have the natural pressure to push it open. I just noticed in the pic you are only running the top port, which will keep it closed but the bottom port should push it open ?

Let me know if this isn't good enough

How does it sound with the AES open ? Like a full open exhaust or a bit more half and half ?

@Lithium any chance of adding the turbosmart 7275 ? https://830533.app.netsuite.com/core/media/media.nl?id=29183737&c=830533&h=4jX7ZZ_NUC9RHMz71QefkkIJU00LZo05Gi3wLi63DizgT3ZD&_xt=.pdf Sorry if its on there already and I am blind ....
