  1. Heinz Dam, and The Gold Coast boat port area
  2. They got back to me about my balancer a little while back. It was faulty from brand new, as the bonding inside it was separated from the inner ring or something like that. Then they moved shop and lost it... New company that took them over contacted me and said they would send me a replacement. Still waiting for it to show up in the mail. So after $2000 to buy the balancer and trigger setup, then nearly another $1000 to buy a new OEM dampener, all the belts that were chewed and labour costs, I'm over it Still running oem and it won't be coming off anytime soon.
  3. That pic went viral haha! I had the easiest exit from the driveway
  4. Can't see why not, the 2350 housings will be machined out to suit the GTX compressor wheel anyways. Rear end will bolt straight on.
  5. Thanks guys. Kushil got some great shots too!
  6. I took the same pic as Noyz today and his photo is going viral. Version 1 a few months back had 5 34GTR's. Here's the driveway pic version #2.
  7. hmm less lag needed..

  8. You are running an RB30, definitely helps with spool up there! GTX's would love the 3 litres worth of exhaust energy. 2.6 to 2.8, feels better. 2.6 to a 3.0, different ball park! R32GTR: Used the 2860-5's on a friend's built rb26, stock stroke with 264 hks cams. Full 22psi at 4600RPM on BP 98b fuel. R32GTR: I have personally used HKS2530's and got 22psi at 5000RPM, also on a built engine with tomei poncams type B 260's R34GTR I have used the 2860-9 and GTX2860 at this stage. About the boost response, keep in mind that mine still has the bigger anti surge compressor housings, these hurt my mid range boost building, because of the anti surge slots. My setup can't supply enough punch to the turbine wheels down low to spin them up quick enough to pressurise the compressor housings. I also read up that the GTX2860 is a 400HP turbo? GTX2863 is a 430HP? Simon has the machined -5 housings on his GTX2863's along with E85, these are the better setup for a GTX twin turbo RB26-28. I actually found mine nicer to drive (punchier) down low with dialled in stock cams too Could be down to tuning as well..

    Dead Gtr 34

    Should buff out... Spare parts for the survivors...
  10. Yep -5 are one of the best 'bolt on' setups if you want 330-470kw at the wheels depending on fuel and setup
  11. Okay so with all the GTX talk lately, here is my experience: Put them on late last year when I built my engine. GTX2860's and keep in mind these are 400hp per turbo rating. Used the anti surge compressor housings and added flanges to outlets etc to bolt to original pipework. The good: They are quiet, They don't surge After 4800RPM they really take off Dynoed around the 480hp+ on Godzilla motorsports dyno The bad: Anti surge housings are not bolt in for GTR's Don't come with turbine housing but you just use your busted -5, -10 bits that probably shit their bearings out from crap plastic bearing cages. Laggy/lazy coming on, after a gear change due to anti surge ports. Not suited to pump 98 as you really gotta pump some psi (25+) to take advantage of the stronger billet compressor wheel. So the gun setup to get some sort of lower response with surge as a trade off would be the GTX's with a -5 front housing. Or run E85 or put em on a 3+litre engine. I have some -5's ready to go onto my car, but still contemplating whether to give the GTX another chance with a different front from the -5's or just put the -5's in and enjoy. Ahh the joys...
  12. Pretty much what you said: Limit hp Limit noise Extra intake as a bonus if used. It just pops out with a small flat blade screwdriver after you take off the sticky foam tape around it.
  13. Love the RPF1's on your car!
  14. My mate's car. Sadly it's for sale.
  15. I know of a really good one here in QLD but maybe too far away? PM me if you want some info.
  16. Great idea! I have the same thing happen with mine, take up point is near the top with a lot of dead travel once disengaged.
  17. Diff ratio is 3.55:1 for 34GTR, and as said above swap em in, might have to use the non vspec rear crown and pinion gears only though...
  18. When you wash the car a certain amount of water makes it's way past the window glass and seals, then it drains out the bottom of the door. The plastic sheet helps with moisture control so that the door trim doesn't slowly rot away Most new cars don't have it because the door trim is all plastic...
  19. You have to unbolt the glass from the rails first. There are access holes on the inner skin to get to the various bolts depending on the position of the window slider rails. The large hole is basically where you pull the reg assy out after setting it up so it is 'compact' to remove. A workshop manual would be really handy right now!
  20. Did mine too for the first time and the steering wheel and handbrake stitching came up nice and red again! Center armrest was already good but I gave it a once over anyway. Cheers!
  21. All same, all have sony guts! As in he's right, you can use 32-33-34GTR brembo sized disks. 324x30mm
