  1. I'm only guessing. :S Tomei's info may not be correct. I remember there was something up with one of their cam specs that didn't match up with what I had.
  2. I've heard the solanoid click just off idle on one r33 but it was running a microtech so chances are things were fiddled with. Never been under the bonnet and listened for it on an R34. Tomei listing 4500rpm.. That may be what the stock ecu runs? PFC i'm sure has that value at 4700rpm.
  3. May be of some help... I believe the table below is from Tomei. My understanding as you probably know is that it switches on (increase overlap) just off idle and stays on until for the R34 GTT until 5400rpm, when its off there is next to no overlap which helps prevent reversion at high rpm due to the factory turbo setup.
  4. What headgasket are you using? Is it the R32 or R33 head? Has the block and head been skimmed?
  5. Whatsisname.. 23rd April, 2002, only days after SAU went online.
  6. Any one in SA been here longer than myself.. 20th June 2002 Andrew you get damn close, you must have came with the SDU migration?
  7. lol i know i know. No need to explain yourself.
  8. 12,195 posts over 5 yeares - (7 per day)
  9. Did any one take a picture of this homosexual looking/influencing car?
  10. So your thinking about the possibility you could be gay? Bums to the ground when Brentons around
  11. For mine it simply made the transition of going from no throttle to very very light throttle (car park driving) noticably smoother. But yes.. Thats stepping down from the rb20det like ign values to very similiar of what the rb25 runs.
  12. Paul, I've done similiar with P01 but for drivability reasons. It made cruising around in car parks a tad smoother, do remember the stock rb20det map runs high 30's to low 40's through P01, I'm down to just under what the stock rb25det map runs.
  13. Dangerman4 runs a GT35r .7 comp .82 IW rear BUT he runs an tough Auto which makes a huge difference to spool. GCG do charge quite a bit for the IW housings. I was quoted $800!!! Bill at ATS in Adelaide wants $500 for the IW housing and will give you $100 for the old XR6T 1.06 IW which brings it down to $400. The .5 comp cover will help improve response/spool in the lower gears as well as improve the mid range once its on boost. A mate of mine is swapping out his GT35r .7 for the .5 on his RB30det as to increase mid range (make it a little more savage as it comes on boost) and spool in the lower gears. Shall be interesting if the theory of it all pans out in real life. The blokes over on xr6t forums state when swapping up to the .7 they loose the low/mid range shove but it has a little more top end (when pushing over 340rwkw).
  14. Fully sik. I bet it has a chip.
  15. I'd run the emanage if I didn't have a pfc.
  16. Some have issues with the stock turbo dropping boost others don't. It comes down to the exhaust.. If the dump pipe is not quite right or the cat is restrictive it will drop boost. If its dropping boost, fit a closed loop ebc and it will hold boost. On a tuned ecu with ~1bar (providing its holding 1bar), good exhaust, fmic expect 170-175rwkw. Upping the boost over ~12psi doesn't do a great deal for the top end (I picked up 12rwkw going from 12.5psi to 1bar on the stock ecu) even if it is holding boost but it really does improve the mid range a hell of a lot. I ran 1bar for ~4years. Turbo came off and was still in good nick.
  17. I really don't believe this is the case. Its more so to do with the problems the old emanage had resulting in tuners steering clear of anything with emanage in its name. A tuner that doesn't have all that much work on will no doubt take up the offer to tune the better emanage ultimate; one that is always flat stick can pick and choose their work. With the powerfc out of the picture I have no doubt the after taste from the old emanage will be forgotten as the ultimate is an awesome bang for buck piggy back.
  18. good pics.. Whats up with the size/look of the fan in pic 5. lmao.
  19. It definitely looks to promote good wastegate flow. I wouldn't touch the hks dump. Get a flange cut cut a few pieces of pipe and get it welded up. It is grasping at straws.
  20. Even the jecs sticker is dodgy.
  21. Yes, 1bar is a walk in the park.
  22. The garret int gate (gt30-gt35) housings suffer a tad boost creep. The balancing of dump and wastegate pipe size is what makes or breaks a setup. An open mouth dump with these turbo's = boost creep, anything less than a 2" wastegate pipe when paired with a 3" dump = boost creep. Then there's the enlarging of wastegate flap size which does work well but requires a strong wastegate spring to prevent the flap being blown open due to back pressure within the scroll. The HKS ProS housings run a large flap that does get blown open even with stiff actuators. Rework the dump pipe, reduce the size of the wastegate pipe. Make it harder for the exhaust gas to flow out of that wastegate. I've never seen it done but there's no reason why it wouldn't work it works int he opposite circumstance - boost creep.
  23. Bugger... So it runs the GTST rear end?
