lol I really wonder how many kays some of these 'nackered' R32's have done. Mine was imported back in 1998 and until now its clock reads 225,000km's. Zero broken airvents, zero rust, perfect dash, no rips in the seat, yes its bushes have just recently started leaking and the heatercore has only just started leaking. And most importantly........ No rattles. LMAO at the noisy lifters... Thats because the Rb26 runs solid lifters. LMAO. They are all slightly noisy be it R32 or R34 GTR.

Unfortunately it doesn't work that way with the RB30DET's. 20psi makes the same power through the rb30det's as it does on the Rb25DET's. No more no less. The head is what governs the inlet restriction not the pots/stroke. The RB30 simply spools the turbo a hell of a lot earlier and pulls up low and mid range power as a result improving 'average' power so when you snap that next gear your making more power. The peak power figure stays the same or very similiar. With regards to the rb30det... 'Tuning' of the inlet system for a particular motor has always affected the rpm power band. Engine manufactures have been taking advantage of this for years. Maybe opening the exhaust right up is simply 'masking' the not suitably tuned (for piston speed, runner velocity etc) inlet plenum and runner combination. Why doesn't the RB26 head pose the same problem on the 30det's if it really was 'only' the exhaust that was causing the problem? Surley we don't need a 3.5" exhaust for 180rwkw, well maybe we do when used with the std rb25 runner/plenum combination. :S ---------- There's recently a little discussion over on performance forums regarding dump pipe design with the new gt30/35r iw. Consider fitting the largest dump front pipe possible, fitting up a split dump you have to go with a smaller dump, a single open mouth dump you can fit a larger dump. Some suggest a single open mouth design is better due to a couple of reasons: 1. It creates a larger pressure differential across the turbine due to there being a larger open area directly behind the turbine. 2. The wastegate causes interference with the 'swirling' turbine exhaust gas, this interference is good as it gets the gas flowing in a laminar fashion earlier so slightly better exhaust flow. 3. A larger pipe always exhibits less 'friction'. 4. No interference with the front pipes laminar flow when the wastegate pipe joins back in. And for the cons. 1. Possibly worse boost control due to a slight increase in backpressure on the wastegate side. 2. Possible increased backpressure directly behind the turbine wheel at WOT, but would this be negated by improved front pipe flow due to better laminar flow? With regards to internal gate (gt35r iw); there's the suggestion that if one can only fit a 3" dump and say a 2" wastegate pipe would it not be better to simply fit a larger 3.5" or 4" open mouth dump. But no one really knows as no one has ran say a 3.5"+ exhaust with a smaller split and larger open mouth. lol

Andy.. no no no no.. Unless you run an aftermarket FULL ECU such as the Apexi PowerFC, Microtech, Wolf3d etc you cannot run larger injectors.

lmao... over reaction. Down south is quite safe. Safety in numbers is the key. lol its not that bad.. No worse than walking around at night in the city with the asian/arab gangs etc.

All paid for FAT34. Thanking you very much.

If mounted correctly the 044 is no louder than the usual V8 commodore pump. Rubber mounting and correct positioning of the sock is the key.

Wouldn't they just. Down south = very bad for import owners. But be sensible and the amount of cars floating around one won't be harrased.

Charge takes only an hour or so. My sister currently has the video camera but I can grab it easily. -- RE: The std Nissan gasket. I have no idea.. Its doing pretty damn well. its not o-ring'd I presume? I've seen cometics around pretty cheap ~$200-$250.

That auto freaks me out.. lol It looks almost identical to an rb30det gt35r .82 spool.

Very Nice, was a touch warm today also. Nice cool day and you'll see that 300rwkw. Turns out I have a few questions..... The 11 power runs? Did Shaun have a fiddle? Did you get to the bottom of the lack of top end? Suspected torque converter?

Start calling the wreckers. Definitely a bugger about crashing it. Make the car really quick on the straights then you don't need to corner as hard. Slow in fast out.

You'd be silly to do an insurnace job on a car that had lots of goodies on it. Return it to stock then do it. lol *Not that I ever would, just not my thing* *Not to keen on meeting Big Bubba in the clink.*

I'm thinking about flogging my pfc off and remapping the stock ecu. Its not too expensive to get setup with the uv eraser, eeprom burner and what not. Not for any major reason apart from just because I can.

Sir Fat34.. PM me your details.

hehe at least... Not offended Paul. Pixel8r runs an Auto. Auto's spool turbo's much earlier than their manual brothers. But do take on board that GCG are 'in to' and own RB's and have sunk the $$ in to R&D, something ATS and MQT has not done. GCG have developed a turbo/highflow for the RB and it works better than anything else out there on the market for the given power,average power,spool and response. They know the limits of the std hitachi housing and don't try to push it past that. Have a quick read back and look for discopotato03's posts regarding the hitachi housing and how its nozzles are not optimal. This is exactly why GCG have gone bout playing with their highflow instead of doing it on the cheap and simply grabbing a chra then machining housings up so it bolts together with absolutely no R&D. The MQT/ATS setup will work ok and still make power but it can be improved upon. UNLESS ATS is simply grabbing a GCG highflow and bolting it on to your car. This is what you have to find out. Exactly what are they doing, a workshop is a workshop, they will always push what they sell. You know this.

Relax Paul its only a turbo upgrade. lol

Bill knows the blokes down at MTQ as they are Australia's largest distrubutor, then there's GCG, Ray Halls, Roto Master and a couple others. You took that statement the wrong way. It comes down to this and ONLY this. Bill's highflow DOES NOT have the R&D GCG's highflow does. Have a look at GCG's website and their highflow pics, its definitely not just a GT30 core slapped inside the RB housings. Really I don't care which way you go. I'm simply pointing out the tried and proven highflow where you cannot go wrong, no surprises no disappointments you know what you are getting. If your willing to take a risk to try something new that really is great. I hope it works out well, if it does we have a much greater choice of highflows available. A little while back on a cruise I was talking to pixel8r about his setup, said the turbo he now has is a little laggy. Thats not something I've heard from the GCG highflows.

And 245rwkw it will be....... Just don't be dissapointed when you get bored of 245rwkw, go to push more boost in and only pull out another 10rwkw or so before hitting the wall of detonation due to turbine backpressure. Definitely not telling you your doing things all wrong. Just trying to future proof you a little better; don't get all grumpy. lol. I really hope for your sake the ECU your using has 6 coil drivers; you weren't too clear on that in our last discussion, it didn't actually sound like you knew. :S

According to Garrett.......

reset != a change in airflow/rpm fuel cut.

What power are you after? Slide is on to a winner with regards to response/spool vs power when it comes to the RB20's and his highflows.

Yes, but i'm not going to bother discussing why.

There's really 3 options in my book. From cheapest to most expensive 1. Slide highflow bolt on ~250rwkw Total ~$700-800 2. GCG Highflow bolt on ~250rwkw with slightly better response Total ~$1750 3. GT3076r .63 or .82 internal gate up to 300rwkw - $1720, new dump -$300, intake pipe $70-$100, lines $200-$300, T3 spacer plate ~$30-40 Total ~$2500 Grab a copy of the engine/service manual and bolt the thing on yourself OR quiz Boostworx what they would want to drop the turbo on. Doing the setup ATS is going to do really is pointless for the $$ its costing. The GCG that will have better response yet still make around the same power.

Thats not going to make much over 250rwkw Paul. If thats the case (Bill using your existing turbine and compressor covers). Just buy a GCG highflow through SK for $1750, bolt it on with a mate; at least you then know the R&D has gone in to the highflow and it makes boost stock like yet makes massive amounts of average power. The std housings are no good for much over 250rwkw, you 'can' push a little more with the stock housings BUT require more than just the usual 'stock' motor. Your looking at cams, plenum, nice exhaust manifolds etc. Bill comes across as a Top bloke and is a great salesman. Don't let this cloud your judgement.
