  1. Thread cleaned. Personal details, rego plates, exact/super specific locations and so on, very inappropriate. Please use a bit of common sense when posting your "spotted" items.
  2. Why not go GTR bonnet, i have a white one. Stuff black. White is the new black!
  3. Well you do realise 600hp is pretty close to 500rwhp yes? So if you've heard they are "good" for 600hp, and you want as LEAST 450-500rwhp - you'd certainly be pushing things gonig by that. That said there is no magical "safe" number for power. Depends on the age of the motor, use of the car, previous life (generally unknown), tune etc etc. Basically how long is a piece of string. End of the day i use a rule like this. Can you afford to break it and the associated rebuild (AKA: The $10,000 adventure)? If you answered NO - stick to Garrett -7s or -9s with 300-330rwkw (400-450rwhp) If you answered YES - go for bigger Garrett -5s or a GT3788 370-400rwkw (500-550rwhp)
  4. Can you fix the test server login?
  5. Bringing my scarred GTR up. Unfortunately clipped a small tyre wall couple weeks ago @ Track Battle so it's a bit worse for wear at the moment. No time to get it fixed at the present
  6. Indeed you can go for many setups depending on power etc. Given -5s would make near on the same power @ 22psi, yet be on 1000rpm earlier What other turbo set-ups are you comparing with for such a recommendation? Interesting about the Autogallery G/B, don't you mean it's actually longer if you are pulling 90km/h in 1st tho? Sounds like it is even longer again than the O/S gearset which is interesting in 1st.
  7. i double bag?
  8. it only makes 290rwkw @ 6000rpm+ remember. putting around, 2000-2500rpm, it'll be making less than stock most likely so it'll be fine. use light throttle always. dont full plant it to 2500-3000 type thing otherwise you are forcing etc.
  9. Don't have it vent... If its blowing a bit, and fills up you'll soon know why I say this... Because if it overflows, in a hot engine bay, instant fire. Seen 4 cars over the years light up for this reason. It's very easy to forget to empty it etc.
  10. Fark why do i have to be poor at the moment You don't need a clutch or something by chance? haha.
  11. Could perhaps be a minor server time out. I've noticed some minor performance hits when @ home (via my fast connection), since the server move a few weeks ago. Might possibly be related if the VW ad takes a tad longer or whatever. If it keeps happening hit force refresh (control key + F5 @ same time) and see what happens in that instance
  12. Ye certainly more likely to get not so much colds, but more so sinus infections. That's how all my colds start off. Hence I wanna get it fixed before i get too much older as 40+ - get an infection like that and it could take weeks to fix rather than days. More about quality of living etc. I dont smoke, or drink heaps off coffee etc (4 a week on average at the most). So certain mine isn't influenced externally. Nasal steroids are fine for long periods of use. I didn't find them addictive, even the prescription ones.
  13. AFM's max out around the 300rwkw mark (+/- 15kw, all cars are different). You can tune past them if you wish, mine were. Tune needs to be spot on however to accommodate this.
  14. How long is a piece of string? Depends on how old it is, how you drive it, how you treat it etc. There is no golden number.
  15. haha SA has a better showing than you lot! If you look @ my FB, you'd find the answer to that question
  16. Getting close now... Excited is an understatement! Looking forward to finally meeting a few of you SA people
  17. lol ye probably. I just got a 3-pack from the supermarket and cut them up to suit. You can just wash the dust off so they effectively will last for 100 years
  18. I can see the Ad right now, working fine here! Although I'm firefox, perhaps its a security setting in IE. also perhaps flush temp files and cookies etc. What is the actual issue? Does the browser crash or hang?
  19. No different to estimating a dyno figure range or RPM turbos will come on. There are always variables, however you can work out 'roughly' in most cases, hence its called an estimate...
  20. Ye I get the left-right-left nose block shit all the time. It wasnt too bad until about '06 IIRC when my nose was broken clubbin one night, had it re-broken it a week later and tried to set it best as possible but now the right side is even more closed and really gives me the shits. I dont smoke either, just unrucky! It's definitely sinus related though as I was on prescription nasal steroids for 2 months last year as over counter stuff just couldn't clear it out. I was fixed in literally 5 days but needed to keep it going to stop infection coming back or some shit apparently. Cant remember what it was called though. Do you find you get headaches as well? I get really epic headaches when it all blocks up after 4-5 days. ENT is the way to go. Once i get private health sorted etc I'm gonna go look at getting mine fixed up as i believe the only real way is to get the equivalent of a bore job on a motor, but in ya nose. It's a good 1-2 weeks off work level of fck you up.
  21. Slightly negotiable on some items. If you want more than one, deal will be done. Few people been asking to see the cover to confirm it's ORC. Pics attached and added to first post. Hard to capture due to the was ORC mark them, but can be seen none the less.
