+1.. For what its worth the gt sedan doesn't have a stock rear anti-roll bar (at all) yet the chassis had the mount points foe the items mentioned above so I would say it'll fit just fine

Drive off boost until you get a tunable ecu (of any kind) Pretty much rule 1 of any mod regarding the engine

I could never find if the EPA applied or not, you see a lot of hot rodded cars on club reg that you know won't meet emissions, seemed like a grey area when I searched. This specific example was done as a 'hey it'll be fine he'll like it" which somehow did occur. Same guy has also been pulled over for blasting up an onramp at WOT and given a thourough look over, bonnet open etc and ended up with a 'take it a bit easier mate' as the reprimand. So who knows, maybe the hwp cbf with club rego'ed cars or I've witnessed the most unlikely of all events known to mankind. Personally, I wouldn't believe me.

I'm sure the model of car is hugely important, but had a friend let loose a 7k rpm atmo bov clutch rev/drop directly infront of a HWP car in his club rego-ed car.... And got a thumbs up. Car also had 1 muffler only and no cat, you can hear it from three blocks away, I Practically had a mental break in the passenger seat

I like the look I'd love to see what an AMS modded GTR would do around the ring to see how much the ridiculous power affects the laptime. You could then discuss how much bang for buck the modifications really add.

Why would you not use a device that's specifically designed to do one task, and named after the 1 thing that it does. All hail the mighty Rice Cooker

Still remember the first time I had a long island iced tea, as someone who enjoys tea of all shapes and sizes of tea, was in the states in Louisiana. Smashed it in 15 seconds, didn't taste any alcohol, got an alarmed look from the waitress, ordered another, was delicious!... felt it 15 min later.

+1 for the above - He really will. Is that new thing suitable for, I dunno, some guy wanting to run a low mount smallish turbo at 28psi on a RB28 auto sedan?

I also had a fun fuel issue with my tank, driving along did 30km after filling up and tank suprisingly empty... Then a couple minutes later (directly on the way to servo) I see it actually move from E with the light on.. to full in about 1/2 a second right as I drive into the servo. Drive out, a minute later, on E again. Give it the "are you serious" stare and it moves between E and F about 5 times in 5 seconds, just waving at me. Hasn't happened since (months ago..) Stupid troll car

Do it a few hundred times and learn to hate it! I have a bag full of fuel pumps in my boot due to the ridiculous amount of times I've had to drop/replace the tank (on my 3rd tank now?) and fuel pump wiring, and fuel pump replacing, and oh jesus nightmares.

I could see it as control, but if I had say 30 psi on either side of the spring it'd be all well and good.. until back pressure pushes the flap opens and it pulls on the 7psi spring, I could never really find out what would happen then.. I assumed with 30psi on both sides the backpressure would act as though there's a 7psi spring in it. My laymans thoughts were, if the flap pushed by backpressure can open a 20psi spring with the boost line disconnected (i.e... free boosting with no vac line connected at all I make 17-18psi) I figured this would still occur with a dual port. Unless I only connected one port, and had 0 psi opening the flap, 30 psi holding it shut, AND spring pressure vs backpressure, but that just didn't seem like a great way to control boost vs just buying a single port actuator head with a 30 psi spring in it.

Actually due to googling IWG's to try and sort my own boost drop issue I ran into quite a few dual port IWG's that do this, but ended up not getting one as I didn't see how it'd help with my (assumed) backpressure problem as the spring inside them all was quite weak. Would be good for boost control in general though, but I'd imagine most people either don't have backpressure problems or gravitate to just using the tried and true method of EWG's

The turbo (the actual compressor housing?) or the turbo wastegate actuator? You've said it's gone to the actuator as well as it going to the turbo..

Why are there no turbo pushbikes? Cmon, it's only logical, what could go wrong?

I'm going with +1 on the "buy a shitter thats reliable and gets you around (camry time!)" If your parents have preferences cause they want to use it, ask them to buy you aforementioned shitter, or "reliable normal car for normal driving" You will appreciate keeping aforementioned "reliable normal car for normal driving" when you get your turbo or GTR and mod it, because you will run into many circumstances where a 2nd car is massively appreciated when the GTT/GTR IS off the road, because it WILL be off the road for longer than you expect/want/plan for

Pretty sure I saw this or something very similar near Osaka imports.. there's a limo repair shop near there. Pretty sure I did a Patrick Stewart quadruple take of wut

+1 for expensive gearbox rebuild...twice +1 for no pod needed at that power level.. or changing the snorkel

Yep... pretty much. People trying to what, be tough thugs to a 'random' motorist? In what circumstance is that OK? I'm all for random crazy normal people taking down thugs.

I thought the same, like, laughably so, as in, why would you even bother. Then I heard a couple of hilltop hoods songs, and I thought, well, its kind of catchy. Only those though. I still think other than exceedingly rare examples.. its just, no.

Mine is an extreme cautionary tale, if it was ever non-horrifyingly bad I'd have made a thread... gone to an event, or a track day, or a cruise.. or.. come out in public.. was off the road for 3-4 years in a workshop that I will not name.. not entirely their fault either, or mine. Just bad for everyone involved.. The road is less travelled for a reason sometimes.. TLDR: Mistakes were made. Everything has broken. Everything was replaced, results still quite bad.

No, as it is wraught with pain and disaster, years and years and years and years of it. WHen people say "it could be worse" - Thats me. I am that guy. There is no worse, from my perspective.

Mine really is a stroked neo, and cams, and some headwork blabla its a 2.9 kit but the pistons are slimmer than what you'd need for 2.9l displacement It's also an auto. Its also a highflow Technically bleeding boost up top is nice and safe. Technically 310kw (at 5k, and 6, and 7300) with 240 @ 4k in an auto is a 'good' result, but more is always good lol. y'all know how it is I also have flex fuel, and its very useful and tbh I wouldn't have it otherwise, even though I work 200m from an E85 servo.. Or caltex in my case. I dont know of any United in Clayton where I work, which is a bit sucky. Either the united page is lying or I just can't find it. Its worth it just so you can see the panicked attendants try and stop you filling up with it at bowsers which happens to me i'd estimate at least half the time

Everything major on a RB28 (neo) Just didn't hold boost. Was oddly laggy on first tune, now it's better response wise but won't hold boost. Its a hypergear turbo, a one off that even Stao can't quite remember what is in it. He's offered me two others to test/swap, one bigger and one smaller. I have unrealistic expectations +1 for Bilsteins, I am really happy with mine, but compared to stock as my only viewpoint you'd hope to be for the price

They weren't, but it was no misses, no hiccups, pull after pull after pull, hours of it... IC was cold, AT Cooler was...room temp. 240kw @ 4000... and 310 at 4800...and 5k,6k,7k, 298 at 7500 etc. Did lose some boost, 26psi in middle, tapered to 21-20... prev run was 24? at redline. Did a 98 run, 26psi (down to 21-22) and made 250kw lol. Same graph shape, though. 16+ deg of timing and no pinging.. 22 or so on E85. Nothing of note changed (well transmission build occurred/new trans but went from a built NA to built turbo one). Fingers pointed at IWG blowing open or manifold, or turbo being choked, though no reason as to why it should be any different than before as nothing changed... Should prob clarify First trip time, 20psi, E85, made 310 2nd trip/retune, 24 psi, E60, made 340, ran out of duty. 3rd trip/retune, "26"psi (down to 21?, E85, made 310. Prob seems due to boost, but nothing changed

I got mine replaced at Roy's windscreens (for those searching) - Drive in/out was $175. Took 30 min. I only had to go there cause I wasn't sure if it warranted a replacement screen and was checking
