The "BP" on the Hume is in Wallan. Its about 10mins further up the Hume from the Shell @ Donnybrook (just past Craigieburn).

Facebook!

Absolutely astonishing. HUGE result so far.

lol. Indeed impressive stuff, Mercury/Hansen - fk me thats impressive...

This.

Nope - you just get a perma ban now for once again doing what you've been told to stop. 2 occasions to stop tyre kicking and breaking peoples balls, enough is enough. VicRoads information cannot be relied upon. You want the truth you go to FAST. Yep, not a V-Spec going by FAST Also have a side question, is it 22,000km on the replacement Nismo DASH? Or actually log-booked/service history 22k?

picsorban anyway, completed

Not really, you still need the solenoid in the engine bay and they are generally bigger than a bleed valve. You could just modify the actuator if you wanted. That also would work fine and then no valves at all etc.

dont need 2-3 threads on this

If you can't hide a boost controller/bleed valve in a stock engine bay - you simply aren't trying hard enough. You cannot do it via Nistune.

That specific ebay one isnt a Z32... It's a dead give away with how the ad is worded. Notice how it says "aftermarket Z32", as in - not original. No where does he say it is OEM/Genuine etc. The last line of his ad says "check other listing for genuine" That's so he can cover his ass when you realise you've purchased a paper weight His genuine ones are selling for $320 or there abouts.

Yes BF3 is going to be something i might sink my teeth into in a big way for the first time in 6 months

cant say Ive ever had a major issue with ATi drivers. But then i dont generally update drives soon as a new one is out as i rarely play "newly released" games. Usually 2-3 months behind the boat

4-4.5" body will be fine dude. Remember you only have a 3" exhaust so that is a limiting factor in itself. So no bigger than a 4.5" body would be needed I reckon. Going 5" probably just cost you more. But ye it'll need to have 3" flanges put on

Any cat with a 4-4.5" Body will be what you want. The exhaust shop will weld 3" flanges on and "taper" out to meet the body. Always good to have a CAT larger than the exhaust as they are a restriction. So going bigger helps alleviate this whilst being legal. There are various brands. Long as its a metal CAT, anything should be fine.

I dont mind driving up @ night after work, usually just going dusk too so you get some awesome sunsets at least

That is really great to hear after the lengths that was required (and the sheer man hours) to make it all. You lucky pricks up there better be updating this thread over the weekend while im working!

+1 Certainly no-one is saying they are junk. However the limited shipments, if it comes out that a number of them are failing (even after testing)... That is an issue that needs attention & something that can be fixed. Also sounds like BW customer support is 100x that of Garrett who simply don't care which is a much needed thing in the performance turbo world. Obviously just a pain in the a$$ that you potentially have a bit of a wait for another to arrive at the moment.

Yep without a doubt - take it to a workshop that you intend to use moving forward. Get them to check it out. First thing i would do with a new purchase that has modifications. Also a full oil change (diff/gearbox as well), always a good idea as you never know the last time it was actually done by the previous owner etc. Yes totally correct. The HKS2540 is a old tech turbo unfortunately. Much better choices on the market now for 4-5 years Certainly the first place to start if more power is wanted.

Ye having only seen the top half of it, i can only imagine how big the bottom half would be. But it was all designed by a top aero dude, so i guess it must certainly have good purpose!

My eagle eye vision from Melbourne have already spotted what is on there

I wonder what turbo they ended up using......

Hope they aint reading his facebook then
