  1. yeah that was my next question, aswell as, whats the next feature car going to be?
  2. yeh and SZ = non turbo
  3. biggggg cams, accept 272's as a minimum
  4. looks like the URAS kit
  5. lol i just looked at ur user name and i had to look at it 3 times coz i thought it said c*cksmoker. dont take that the wrong way, im actually a fan of dosing (i drive a VL...)
  6. sounds like hes selling off the shelf, his supplier had a shortage anywho, AFAIK titanium needs to be welded in an argon rich environment, so for pipe and shit you gotta cap the ends,and fill it with argon and bleed all the air out of it as to protect the back of the weld etc from all acounts i've heard its a bit of a pain to weld
  7. minispool = locked. i've got one and its bags of fun. it just replaces the spider gears/side gears/central components with one solid lump of steel. cheap and VERY effective. i swear I'm Dori Kin when it rains lol
  8. ahahaha alf i love your avatar
  9. MA70, always had massive head problems. its the same style your thinking about, but: JZA70 came with JZ series motor (1jz) MA70 had M series motor (7m) GA70 had G series motor (1g) all in the same shell, although there was a GA70H which was widebody, i dunno if that came with any other motor
  10. yeah think its the first ever serious post i've seen from him, i was honestly impressed
  11. maybe he moved his AFM to the cooler piping closure to throttle body
  12. dunno about you, but we're all talking about downshifting. so do you snap second and start skating when approaching a red light or something? only jk mate it has no 'performance' benefit, but in my case, its smoother if i want to shift down to overtake, but the main thing, is with all the abuse i give my box from shifting without the clutch, syncros are kinda feelin it now, so i do it to reduce the load on them, as to preserve the remaining life in the box. think of it this way, i never used the clutch, now im using it twice as much to make up for it hahaha
  13. seen a thread on SFAU recently, guy got hi head ported, his turbo was spooling ~500rpm earlier, then he got cams and made it spool later, so going by that, get headwork, leave cams alone
  14. if your handy with a welder, look at subaru turbos like GTST mentioned, they are small, and built to run fairly high boost so unlikely to fail with two of them on an RB30. i've seen a couple of these used on a soarer, cant remember numbers but it went alright apparently, and you could even keep these turbos for bigger power down the track if maintaing stock GTR turbos, do as R31nismoid said, dont go over 10psi
  15. that wont work, you need to rev match in dog boxes to ENGAGE the gear. Rekin, from what i got, you were asking why people let the clutch out as opposed to the way your doing it, everyone else is telling you why people double clutch, not why they do it that way, so: you let the clutch out while its in neutral, and give it a rev to match the speed of the clutch with that of the output shaft on the box, allowing for the raio of the gear your trying to grab. a practical example, say you've only got two gears, 1st and second, the ratios are 1:1 (2nd gear) and 2:1 (1st gear) your doing 20km/h in second at 1000rpm, you double clutch, bring the revs up to 2000rpm, so your clutch is spinning at 2000rpm, your output shaft will already be spinning at 2000rpm, and so will first gear, everything is the same speed, gear will slot straight in. if i f*cked any of that up please correct me so i dont confuse rekin PS - thats how u shift without the clutch also, pull it out of gear, rev match, and because everything is pinning at the same speed, gear with slot straight in, but its hard to do, i still crunch occasionally when i do it, and i practiced it a fair bit. man i do some terrible things to my gearbox..... PPS R33cruiser, none of what you said makes sense, its got nothing to do with running at the strip (you said e.t. and im guessin your not talking bout the litte green dude on a bike lol)
  16. yeah about SSV, they have some of the cleanest cars around, but i have been there a couple of times with andru (R34NRG) and i think it was marks dad that was talking to us, and he did have a bad attitude, like hes better than you and he knows better than you, i found if asking him q's, he didnt give you answers, he gave you a statements in a way that told you they were matter of fact, and that nothing else could possibly be right and SEI... hahahahahah i used to work there for a couple of weeks, and told everyone i knew to stay away, then my best mate the dumb c*nt goes there and buys a car that i didnt know about till it was too late. all the inner guards on the rear were rusted like all f*ck, seriously like 5k+ if he wanted to repair it, all on a non turbo skyline that he payed ~16k for.....
  17. yeah dunno if it is a ground, but giving it 12v didnt work so try grounding it, maybe do it through a globe/test light so u dont short anything out
  18. shouldnt other persons insurance cover this?
  19. hey man are you the same guy from supraforums with the twincharged supra? or something special like that
  20. get a vid up on youtube if u can for us
  21. plugs, if that dont work, coil packs, but my guess would be plugs at this point
  22. get a lip rolled in in if its thin shinig stuff that comes with most kits, or if its thicker material, get some weld on it like mentioned above
  23. its not a ground out of the compressor? so what happens when the clutch engages (that thud) and the motor is running, is there any scraping/grind noise from the clutch? are you sure the clutch is engaging?
  24. engine conversion is slightly easier than chassis redesign/modification. plus, the GTR is already very well set up chassis and 4wd system. putting a new engine in it will give it more/nicer power to use, putting 4wd in a supra you will have to not only fit it all, but the chassis isnt considered to be as good for handling,, and then you'd still have to tweak the 4wd system too and for person above, it was indeed a GTS, not GTR
