  1. Again i see an opinion and no imperical data of back to back tests or 2 dyno charts to prove this with all other factors being equal. Do you have any charts to prove the curves do build quicker, more boost at same RPM, more power at same boost? To clarify i dont have any that prove this wrong either. I am an engineer so like to see evidence of what people claim, as i can claim anything i want as long as i dont need to prove it.
  2. Not to start an arguement with you, but please justify what you mean in terms of out perform? Are you meaning straight out power figure? Dyno king Power curve will build sooner? Torque builds faster? Boost to power level, meaning same boost and engine stress? Street driveable to track? I only say this as i dont like statements that simply say 'out perfrom' or 'better' without any imperical evidence as it can mis-lead people into making a choice that might not suit what they are chasing. Similar to people chasing power figures rather than a target of driving experience. This is by no means me suggesting HKS or Hypergear, i say each person is different with different goals in mind, so find your end goal and build to that with price as a secondary option.
  3. i would agree to check this as my mate had an S15 a few years back that sounded similar to this... we changed the exhaust and all went away... was a 4" and changed to a 3" so must have given enough clearence
  4. Sorry if i confused you.... my car come with NISMO clustert from Japan so was set there by NISMO by the previous owner, and i was happy to purchase based on the cert. to prove the ODO was correct
  5. do you have about 10K laying around? if you answer no then you should not bother starting... not meaning to be rude but to do it right you need supporting parts
  6. this is a 'how long is a piece of string' question that causes many arguements... search and you will see. There is too many factors to judge this... example of my car.. stock turbo tuned to run at 13psi.... lasted me 60,000km of pretty hard driving and a couple of track days... then one night doing nothing silly BANG! Yet my bro at 12psi lasted 8,000km in his R34 so will it last... yes how long... no idea will it break my engine if it goes bang... do you like to gamble
  7. My understanding is it is illegal to modify the cars kilometeres, but if you keep the old cluster and make a note of it to the DMV that the odo has changed then it is fine, someone can confirm this for me? I am not sure if a local mech will be able to help, i know my car come in with the NISMO cluster and had certificates from NISMO to approve the odo was reset by them correctly, my car was also allowed to be complied with the cluster based on this cert. and fully registered with it, guy at the pits questioned it but once he saw all the paper work it was rego'd first shot.... this was over 6 years ago now though
  8. To add to that, i myself have come forward as a witness to someone being hit by a car, and i said i would never do it again... i was treated very poorly by the police and the whole process was rediculous... i had to take time off work at my expense, back then i was casual, to make reports, then to go to court for 2 days just in case i was called, to then be asked one question, then recieve 'compensation' of $40 for all the hours i lost from work and uni... so what did i get for helping out, a slap in the face as far as i am concerned, i know it is the right thing to do and help, but when they make you feel like a criminal and it starts to cost you income and stress on how to pay bills it makes you think twice the second time....
  9. Mine is nice and quiet, no re-wiring needed and has 360rwhp with room to move still. on 98 fuel not sure how it would go with E85 or anything
  10. It is not that no one gives a shit about the guy on the road... it is that people are affraid to help in case they find themselves in a court case for touching him... it has happened before in the US. so it is lawyers and court systems that have helped create this issue... and not just the US either guys, it happens here also
  11. If it helps you decide, I have 850cc injectors running 260rwkw and my PFC never goes about 50% duty on injectors.
  12. if you are running stock boost and stock turbo then the gain would be minimal IMO. Also if you plan on mounting it in the factory location i think you might find it worse as the airflow is directed to the stock cooler via shielding etc happy to be corrected but i dont see it being a worth while 'upgrade', the stock cooler is good for 10-12psi for road use, track is different story
  13. agreed.. but think about a bad battery and all the warnings a dash will show... i had a bad battery show the oil light, park brake and light bulb warning... replaced battery and all fixed... as bad battery can show up random things and is a simple thing to check which requires minimal effort... even just leaving the battery on charge over night and check again in the morning... cost nothing to rule it out
  14. before you go looking at all the wiring... have you tried a brand new battery... reason for asking is if it has dropped a cell or 2 then there might not be enough amp's running though... very simple thing to test and rule out before going to the effort of wire hunting... poor battery can lead to a lot of issues people dont consider...
  15. As much as i agree with you everyone is allowed an opinion and facts are only facts based on someone's interpretation(OPINION) of the results. Any person with half a brain can make the same result or fact seem different just by a few words, this would then leed to opinion. 5% unemployment... so this can be said that 95% are employeed... same 'fact' different writting can lead to different opinion. Dont stress yourself in life trying to prove people are wrong, as you might be right but it only comes accross as you being arrogant and a know it all.... not saying you are either of these but not having meet you some people could judge based on the 'facts' on these posts, again fact to someone based on opinion. Have a great christmas and lower the stress
