hey matt, just buy and astra turbo:)

Aust delivered silvia, just called them a 200sx:)

Or an aussie delivered sylvia.

His phone is disconnected, and a mate who wanted work done by him said his workshop is shut.

Bala, done, Memphis, sorry dont have a digi camera, there is a photo of this gauge mount on www.greenline.jp site, under R33 parts section.

willing to sell the wastegate seperately? if so how much?

bump

I agree with 8.5, but really I dont think you loose that much by dropping CR to 8.5 from 9. A car may be better to drive with 9, but mine with 8.5 is absolutely fine on the road, dives very well - and detonation is very low even on 40deg day running 1.7 bar on bp ultimate - peace of mind. If 8.5 is that bad, why did nissan use it for the GTR? BTW Paul, how many ring lands did you smash?

Oh, and I do believe the adeliade hills are a bit more demanding than most tracks:)

Just so you all know: http://www.hksusa.com/categories/more.asp?id=1092 GT25 inlet, GT30 outlet (from memory). Adaptors are only cheap, and if you can do it, a very good way to mount the wastegate is to get it attached to the turbine housing directly. Toyota have done this in some of there performance stuff, works well. Interesting you should ask about the hybrid IC, it actually works very, very well. I went for a 1 1/2 - 2 hour thrash through the hills running 1.7 bar and on boost nearly all the time except for braking for corners - detonation was only 28 peak during that time. On the dyno, the guys commented how well the cooler worked as the outlet end tank was icy cold - the inlet of course got quite warm - this was during a full tune for around 3 hours.

which setup did you end up going for? make sure you post up results:)

Do you think it is fair to compare a ceramic coated everything 25K engine that gets tuned before every race meet and has all the ecu data logged and reviewed regularly with the average guy on the street wanting an engine that can be driven in anger without problems and only gets dynoed once in a blue moon? I dont.

I have seen both with and without black rubber.

Glenn, please send me an e-mail detailing your problems - it all helps

can only recommend them.

peak voltage is the same for all AFAIK, S1, S2 and Z32 - 5.115V, not sure how you would check it sorry, must be some way to measure the ouput though the difference between skyline and z32 is what airflow produces the same voltage, z32 will flow more air for the same voltage reading as a skyline afm, so for example (figure purely for demonstration) the airflow for a skyline afm may read 5.115V, but the z32 may only read 4.25V. thus greater tuning ability at higher airflow

Not sure sorry, 5.11 is the max voltage for WOT. It cant hurt to set it up right though:)

Just shows how different cars are, my 33 afm hit peak voltage at 189rwkw@12psi (stock turbo)around 4500rpm. Mine is series one though, so I dont know if that makes a difference. After retune with Z32 went to 203rwkw.

I was told there is no taxes on computers anyway, just gotta make sure they write computer on the tax dec.

have you checked your TPS output with throttle shut? should read between 0.4 and 0.6V. Sounds like you could really do with a power fc.

Nice result, reduction in back pressure is obviously helping alot

All I can tell you is that from the looks of it, its a GTR/Z32 pump. the older ones have black rubber around them, but otherwise look identical. The diaphram at the top gives it away. Some what stabbing in the dark now, but the R32GTR/Z32 ones have black rubber, the R33 ones dont, as per the photo you have up. I must qualify and say that I have only ever seen about 8 or 10 of these before, so I am not 100% sure. It will probably make less noise when it is in the tank and has fuel to suck. Should be good for around 250rwkw.

Yes, they are the same.

They are tweaked. I have also done front and rear strut braces - the turn in is great, just the tyres dont grip too well when you go fast enough:D I woudnt mind a bit more camber in the front, but that means adj camber arms. I would love to drop the car about another inch, but the front bar wont like it at all - protests now. and some nice R rated rubber.

Yes, why you ask?
