You would need to confirm the lobe angle of the step 1 cam. The step 1 is only wedged on 1 side so you would think/assume the lobe angle would be different than a step 2 BUT I can’t confirm that as I have no measured it. Rb25 and Vcam cam shafts have nothing in common. This is essentially an EJ25 system that has been shoehorned to make work on an RB26. You’d be better off asking for an EJ25 nose and grooves that has the lobes spaced to suit an RB26 with a profile of “x”. My bet is they won’t want anything to do with it. 🤣 The thread below has photo’s in it showing what I’m talking about. https://www.gtr.co.uk/threads/vcam-step-1-and-stock-turbo.504185/

So Benny carried out a turbine housing touch test. After a 20 minute drive he touched the compressor housing, that was cool enough and then dropped a finger on the turbine housing. Even the 1.05 T4 was hot. This was the result. 🤣

At what turbine speeds? Both of those look far from “all in”. Considering an 8374 will piss in 600 whp, why are a 8474 and 9180 which flow far more only touching those numbers? Have you you got a decent exhaust on it yet or does it still have that 2.1 inch thing you said was on it a while ago? If that has not been addressed you are wasting your time.

But it doesn’t exhale as much 🤷‍♂️👍😂

You can put that 73.7 mm crank in the bin... where it belongs.

About farken time!

Bump!

Go downstairs, start your car and put your hand on the turbine housing at idle. Please take a video. ?

Because it’s all about the compressor. The turbine side isn’t a consideration it seems. “750 hp” compressor, doesn’t matter if it can’t get out. ??

Keen to see your real world review after running the twin butt plugs for so long, not to mention the GTX frankenfails. ?

Hi guys, I have my old lower lip up for grabs. Only reason I pulled it off was because I bought a new S3 lip as my car should have on it. It’s not perfect, I have tried to show the condition of it as best I could. Located in Kogarah Bay, Sydney, 2217. Due to its size I’m not interested in posting it. Pick up only. Price: $500 negotiable. Contact me through PM.

Apart from killing a Nismo twin plate in bumper to bumper traffic with stock turbos?

Just drive it.

The easy and logical way to know would be to run a speed sensor. No one can tell you what the max boost can/will be.

Changed the load cell. I already had one from the OS88. I still have the gearbox in the car.

Hi guys, I have essentially a brand new PPG gear lever mounted load cell. It came brand new with my PPG sequential gearbox. It may have been on the car for 50 kms. It’s in perfect working condition. Price - $800 AUD including postage anywhere in Australia.

Going off spring rates alone to gauge how harsh/firm they are doesn’t tell you much at all. You have valving and fluid used also to consider. The springs in my current setup are 15 mm front/9 mm rear and are much better at soaking up a bad road than a set of “softer BC’s” (which feel like you have railway sleepers as suspension) and even Nismo S tunes. You get what you pay for here and a $1099 set isn’t worth the box they come in. Might be 36,000 way adjustable but it’s hard, hard, hard, harder and hardest. Bilstien PSS9’s and the Ohlin DFV’s are probably a good place to start or as you have already said, the guys at MCA. FWIW, I’ve had stock, Nismo S tunes, Nismo R tunes and the current setup which is Modified PSS9’s.

Shouldn’t be ANY drone with ANY size of exhaust with decent mufflers, if there is, it’s time to look at your setup. A Kakimoto exhaust is a sure way of having something excessively loud and make no grunt for the setup. Best place they’re for is the bin!

Display sold. intercooler is still here

Has until the 20th of July or it’ll go out on the council cleanup.

Whatever you first “budgeted”, ATLEAST double it to begin with.

Hi guys, I have my old sim racing driving rig for sale. I have used a Fanatec DD1 and clubsport bases over the years on this. Due to its size and weight it’s a pick up only item. Located in Kogarah Bay, NSW 2217. Price - $100 or 2 cases of Coopers Red. Cheers, Paul. EDIT. SAU isn’t allowing me to upload images for some reason. Will try tomorrow.
