Bring it down for a look if you like Khan, I'm in Hampton Park. Most likely the compression bushes are making the clunk and the screech is probably crappy trade pads at a guess. It would definitely be worth getting in on the hoist and checking it out properly.

Can anyone tell me what percentage of paid up SAU Vic members actually drive a Skyline these days? I imagine its low. Excluding non Skyline owners would make for boring track days that's for sure, and exclusivity is pretty pointless if you plan to fill another clubs track day places.

The Stagea is a GTR wagon, does that count?

Pressure test the intake/cooler pipes for leaks.

They took our jerb... Don't you need a working visa or sponsor or some crap?

^^ makes for expensive resprays though. The self healing only works once for an area, and won't last forever obviously. You can't cut and polish it afaik.

Looks bloody expensive too, so much that he doesn't list prices.

Why don't you drop it out and have a look to compare them. It's only 2 nuts...

No need for the personal attacks, they are only my educated and tested views as I stated. I have never even seen an EFR, like most of the other guys on here. I welcome the debate, and happy you have set us straight on the shaft construction to some extent. Glad you edited your post anyway. It doesn't change the fact your view is only that, everyone is allowed to have their own opinion. If it conflicts with your ideas or testing, it doesn't mean it's proven wrong, and doesn't give you an excuse to call me ignorant. There are after all many ways to extract more airflow, or gain response. I have seen some great results from a myriad of turbo setups, and even the use of exhaust pulse energy seems much less important to me than manifold velocity. In your opinion, how would a rear mount turbo setup work at all? That aside Geoff, I just noticed your wastegate runners exit the manifold on a 90 degree or worse. You should trial facing them in the direction of gas flow to allow better breathing in the top end. They aren't just bleeding manifold pressure after all... Are my ideas out of the box? Yes, but I have proven them to work many times. Your choice if you chose to ignore me, I won't be losing sleep over it. Back to EFR discussion please, lets keep the split pulse discussion for the other dedicated thread.

Of course it needs one of your manifolds to work. Credibility suffers when you are making a profit from the supplied information too in my eyes. I stand by my statement, twinscroll is a farce if you compare apples to apples, eg. a .82 single to a 1.06 split. It is not cost effective in the slightest per kw from my experience. How was I to know the shaft isn't Ti, I would prefer the wheel and shaft to be one piece not bonded. Thanks for putting me off this BW tech.

I just got a fine too Birds, 60 in a 50 zone, main street Lilydale on the last Stagea cruise. $300 and 3 points. farkin.

Daleo's bracing, and the Superpro compression bushes give a much more pronounced handling improvement than the sways imo. Not saying 'don't get em' but increasing the spring rate isn't going to improve the ride much, quite the opposite. I would be doing the lot... Oh, I have.

Some turbo's cost that much. I tell you mate, the spool sounded very loud with all the pipes off, you may need to be careful on the road, it's fairly obvious it is boosted. Thread is useless without pics, but have you even taken any? Perhaps if you turned up in the daytime you would have a better chance of getting a few good shots?

No-one has done it yet. And the control unit costs around $900 I think.

To run a pod off the stock maf housing? There are a few s/h pod kits lurking about the place, a few M35 guys have removed them...

I will ask my injector specialist if you like, heading there today. They are in Melbourne, but it's fairly cheap to express 6 injectors down. As said, they usually just squirt them into a beaker and compare them for flow. If you want a printed verification of flow you may need to pay more. I would be happy they were cleaned, tested and the Orings were replaced personally.

I doubt the other 2.5 inch flange will turn up today, probably tomorrow.

Easy fixed with a PCS controller, someone program one for me...

VQ is the same, they always feel soggy warming up as the cams don't activate till the engine is up to temp.

VPW sell 200 amp alternators for the V8 guys... Perhaps you can make up some custom brackets.

Wat? The selector switches are under the gearstick, simply take the handle off and slide the cover up gets you access.

I would say either someone had a crack at swapping the wires around for the tiptronic previously, and failed, or one of the switches is faulty.

The piston in cylinder 3 most likely expanded due to the heat and grabbed in the bore. It will have scuffed the bore and piston skirt a little, but you may get a fair life from it, depending how bad.

Sounds like either your gauge is faulty, or you have a serious boost leak. Are you trying to use the stock gauge? Have you pressure tested the pipes?

500kw or more from the stock GTR airbox, if you have the turbo for it. At least it won't suck as much hot engine bay heat.
