  1. mate if you think peak power is the be all and end all and you JUST want to drag race, then good luck to ya. i prefer a car that's fast in the hills and on the street, which peak power and poor response serves little purpose as area 'under the graph' is king. lol @ anything smaller than a GT40 being too small.
  2. now that is fken mint... mmm...
  3. ye because of the "-" just use GTR, rarely will people use the "-" I've found.
  4. Put a set of -5s on a 3ltr (what a mate is doing currently)... It'd be like -9 response, but with 400rwkw... Now that is tasty
  5. hehe... although Russ's car was on fuel i believe? (and it was 440-450 i think?) Just about every moderate build makes around 380rwkw on 20-22psi... Serious builds will get the 400, same as a 2530, few big builds have done over 400rwkw as well. Just need a bit more boost and probably a bit more attention to the head.
  6. I'm with marko - none of the GT-RS's I've heard of have major issues at all.
  7. Hampton is surrounding CBD? Surrounding CBD wise, Vic St - $3.20 Pork/Salad Roll... Just a 7-12 stop tram trip on the 109 Or in the CBD, there was a place near cnr of Flinders Lane/Queen, just near 333 Collins - awesome beef/salad rolls.
  8. Just tell him $200 - he's had it up for a while and clearly isnt selling anything Stock ECU = no more than $200 IMO.
  9. 400rwhp is about "the limit" for more reasons that just outright stregnth. You have to understand the basic dynamics as I said. People with stock motors fit the following: 1. Generally drive the cars daily. 2. Do not want to rebuild @ a cost of 6-10k and indefinite time off road. Overall setup is budget limited. 3. They want good response and 400rwhp(280-300rwkw) is the "sweet" spot for power vs response and turbos like the 2835 or 3071/3076 fit in nicely 4. Don't want tyre frying monsters You will not find "proof" of "many" people over 400rwhp/PULP/stock motor - because people don't want to push that fair as per above reasoning. If you want more than 400rwhp generally people are racing and therefore go chasing 500rwhp or MORE. There is no middle ground there and it seems to jump markedly. Read the dyno results thread you would see this for yourself. FYI, I used to have a built 370rwkw RB25 back in '05/'06 As it stands, you have a cheap truck turbo that is worse than a old t04. If you put a decent turbo on there your lazy 400rwhp car would turn into one of the fastest 400rwhp cars around simply because the average power would be ridiculously improved. If you want more than 400rwhp, then just get a GTX3076, E85, you should see 350rwkw easily enough. Ensure you have adequate money set aside for the rebuild. As it will die, its just a question of when.
  10. pfft just run stock ones lol
  11. He is only after a 280-300rwkw setup it think so not huge HP/Boost given a stocker motor.
  12. 3076's do not have that issue at all. They will smash 20-25psi @ 8,000rpm no problem. My GT3040 had 24psi until 8,000rpm without a sign of abating. It was external gate (.82), but a proper IW housing on the 3076 and you wont have these problems. Its just a case of the compressor nosing over really IMO. The next step is the 3037ProS in the HKS speak which is virtually the same as the 3076 and they never had any issues either and would make 300-330rwkw on PULP on a 2.5ltr. Dale's example is a bit of a odd one, i wouldn't have thought it would drop that hard at all as the rear certainly isnt running out as they are a .78 IIRC either way they aint running out of exhaust flow.
  13. a GT3076 is now worth nothing - so why would it matter from a marketing point? better product, more sales.
  14. Are you going to start a thread for each ECU type or what? first Link, then Tomei... Now Wolf... Same as every other ECU thread... Go talk to the guy doing the tune. Use what they suggest to achieve the best result. For a joe average street car just get Nistune or a PFC. Cheap, easy, and any old dog can tune it.
  15. I'm 27,2 under 10km/h fines, and high risk suburb. Shannons is 1700/yr, 45k agreed for the 33. Their initial quote was 2700/35k. which i was not happy bout. few calls later and down it went, which was good, but it stinks i got 1k off just because i know someone. Just Cars were worse. it was around 1900 with 30k no room to move value The car has 25-30k just in mods, can be proven etc.... fken idiots they are. It's a pity LSV don't do imports anymore. My GTSR was $1200/30k agreed.
  16. 120-140rwkw. there is no set figure due to motor age, dyno variance etc.
  17. dude, do yourself a big favour and start reading. this place is arguably the best knowledge website for RB performance in the world. plenty have made around 300rwkw(400hp) on stock motors, that's pretty much the limit and best compromise for power/lag as well given most are street/daily driven.
  18. Exactly the issue i am debating. illsend a few emails around i think

    Buyer Beware

    Some one PM me the name. if this is the attitude displayed by traders, then we will look into it. SAU traders are expected to be reasonable, if they aren't we will get rid of them.
  20. Huh? None of the offerings from -7 (N1) upto -10 (RS) have boost control issues with internal gates.
