i've got a mate with an rb25 in a vp with a 3040 bolted onto it, not a bad ride, not a huge fan of commodores but still
-
my horn beps when i turn the steering wheel past 90 degress in either direction

2rismo can u clarify if new rims are required for these ?
and if so do u have an idea of the cost ?
also can u meet at WSID early enough to duck to the tyre shop at the servo for a swap ?
cheers
-
merry christmas to me, put me down for a set please, and how much for shipping to 2290, might be able to meet at WSID though......
255/50/16 will fit the stocko 33 rim right.....

will make bugger all difference, u realise how much air a car goes thru when on full boost at high RPM
only the air touching the sides of the pipe would be affected by heat soak, and even then for a very brief period of time, will probably make bugger all difference
-
is there any conclusive way to test throttle response, has anyone dyno'ed there car before and after a v-mount setup, just because it feels better doesn't mean it is, proof anyone ?
-
do a search for some of the many posts by sydneykid regarding shorter cooler pipes and how removing 20cm of pipe is going to make no difference, but to do the maths
at 3000 rpm and zero boost / vac your 2.5L engine is consuming 3750L of air per minute or 62.5L per second
assuming u save 20cm of pipe and that its 2.5inch pipe that will have a volume of approx. 1.5L in that pipe.
so your engine will consume that air in 0.024 of a second, now add boost etc....to the equation and is it worth sacrificing your aircon for 0.024s of throttle response
sorry if this is wrong but as my understanding goes this is how it'd work

there are 2 BP's near me, one charges 10c above regular unleaded, regardless, always 10c the other one seems to set a price which doesn't change, somedays ultimate will be 2c more then regular but other days it might be 15c dearer, it seems he only changes the ultimate price every shipment or somethong, not sure but it's worked in my benefit many a time

u getting smoke on back off from full throttle or just normal putting around, cause if its after full throttle then thats less of a problem then if otherwise

Front Mount InterCooler

ummmm sort iff in a way, but if u can imagine if your nuts on your wheel is lose and u go over a bump, it sounds more like that.
mate you can't describe a noise by a problem, if you says it sounds like a wheel nut then its a wheel nut, what does it really sound like, short thump, clunk, snap ???
air realsed sound ?
metal on metal, metal on plastic ?

being a 4WD there would be plenty of situations when the engine is flogging it tits off on full boost and the car is barely moving at all, low range can see a car doing 1.7 km/hr on the redline....hence zero airflow and max boost
-

how much power you can get to the ground will depend on how wide your tyres are, wether you've got decent tyres on there, and your rear end suspension setup.
should be able to make a fair bit out of that engine though
-
these will be fine with the stocko 33 gtst rims right, the tyres on those were 255/50/16 to start with....
-
hmmmmm interesting, i'm assuming r33 ones are 370cc then so S15 would give me an extra 70cc which should be enough, i'll look into it further
-
hey guys
need a bit of help, i can get my hands on some SR20 injectors and i've heard they flow more but i'm unsure, do they fit and do they flow more ?
if so is it worth upgrading, how easy would it be to adjust the PFC tune ?
cheers
-
shouldn't you speak to your tuner, he'd be the best to advise on safety for engines i'd assume, seeing as he tunes it for a certain amount
-
damn i wish i had $1200....
-
ohhh yeah buy an electronic boost controller, much better then a bleed valve especially if you are going to be running big boost and power
-
well 260 rwkw will deffo require a turbo upgrade, so doing things like manual bleed valves anf fancy dumps at the moment are kinda waste of cash, if you are going to do all this in a relatively small period of time, go for things like the intercooler, fuel pump, fuel reg, pod, and and 3" cat and cat back exhaust.
then once you've saved your pennys go for the injectors, AFM, ECU, turbo route, all these require the aftermarket ECU, so doing all at once will mean you only need to get it tuned once, all you can put a fancy dump on at this point.
as for clutch, tyres suspension etc...that can all wait but don't expect your clutch to last very long at all with 260 rwkw, mine died before i hit 200....might even die on the dyno, who knows but be prepared
tyres, well if u can avoid spinning them (have fun with 260 rwkw) they should be no different, but every time u loose traction then you are going to need new tyres
suspension, well again its optionaly but if u dont' wanna die its something u should consider
