  1. car should be going by then. good chance to do some km in it.
  2. if you have a large external gate turbo it may help performance, it will also be very loud and a large defect. if you have an internal gate turbo it would sound like crap and still get you a large defect.
  3. give the machinist the pistons with the block to be machined. you don't want to just guess the clearances. rips also do other modifications to their standard NA parts builds. they aren't just slapped together to hold 600hp
  4. it helps bring on boost faster as the wastegate has no way of opening before hitting boost. its also useful in high exhaust back pressure applications (such as antilag) where the pressure can cause the wastegate to leak/creep open
  5. the other way to set up the boost control is to run the solenoid the other way so that it is NC instead of NO so no duty = max boost and high duty = minimal boost. that way the solenoid is closed and off when the turbo is building boost and then starts opening once it is on boost. though this is entirely reliant on your boost controller/ecu being mapped by duty cycle rather than set a boost level and leave it also if the solenoid/controller fails you run unlimited boost.
  6. he does but it is down at the moment. http://www.extrememanifolds.com/main.html (02) 4262 8774 give him a call and ask.
  7. car should be running again. might make the trip up. are you taking the yellow beast shell?
  8. another vote for ETM. leigh gives great customer service.
  9. Nissan Q45 90mm Throttle body gasket (as used on the Greddy plenum) $21.95 16175-61U00
  10. impressive brakes on the 34.
  11. you will be looking at ~$150 for a pallet. It cost me $130 Canberra to Wollongong.
  12. what part of the turbo do you think is going to break from using more boost?
  13. My fluid level switch will be hooked up to an input on the ecu, when it triggers it will change to secondary fuel/ignition maps that have been tuned without WMI that way if the tank starts to run low the ecu changes maps early (there will also be a switch on the dash to manually switch to the non WMI maps)
  14. Some people have been lucky enough to make more than 300kw on the stock bottom end and others have not been as fortunate. there is no guarantee that the stock bottom end will hold as is.
  15. was it all the water in the catch can that caused the spillage on saturday dave?
  16. the 0.82 rear GT3076R will give power to 7000-8000rpm it is the highflow that will run out of puff at 250kw
  17. the issue there is he has said he wants a RELIABLE build for 300kw and you just cant assure that with a stock 200,000k motor that you haven't even opened.
  18. for a question like that i would call and ask Ray directly. Ph: (07) 4051 6672
  19. bubba, i will be able to tell you what mine gets in a couple of weeks (GT35R 0.82 rear, 25/30 with 9.4:1 comp, ETM manifold, external gate) should be fairly comparable with your setup.
  20. as much as i like a good honda bash. The green dragon is the slowest, followed by the red dragon and then the yellow is the fastest unless its one of the other coloured dragons with a racing stripe and nos. so in conclusion i vote that they will both do a 14.7 @ 98 unless they invest in a dragon.
  21. The difference there duncan is that you are happy to do it the cheap way because you know you are going to break it anyway, he doesnt want it to break
  22. it will have a chunky power band from 1500 - 5500 more than that and there is so much exhaust gas that the turbo cant get rid of it and backpressure starts killing off all the power.
  23. there isnt that much difference between a GCG rebuild and a new turbo. you will find the power peaks and is all over by 5500-6000 on the RB25 highflow.
  24. not everyone jumps on the internet to complain that their oil pump died, most just fix the problem and move on.
