"TAG" top pics guys .. i'll post some of mine .. mostly engine bay shots and of GTR's Matt

yea the dynos were ****d..alot of cars making far less than what they made some days b4 on other dynos ..some dynos that are least generous than that 4wd one of XTC ..and they were reving the piss out of some of the cars ..some shocking .....my m8 turnd he;s down to 1.2 ..although it spiked to 1.4 he made 257 ..but he's made 297 at 1.6 at technik last week...... R33GTR (NOTGTS) and the 180sx chaser car made 290 this week ..and only made 236 ....pretty shite Matt

reported from another guy that bought the same kit from Spool Up ..made 320hp at the wheels on 18psi .... which is about 235rwkw's .... i'm lookin to buy the kit as well .. just dont have enough cash Matt

yea i remember selling this at the melbourne motor show few years ago in bare metal .....and it lookd horn then .....aesome that its complete now ....might buy this issue.. havent bought one in like years ..

laverton .. lucky the locals didnt try and steal it man ...fark .........tasty lookin ride man ..i'm jealous ... lol can i ask how much it will set u back once its on the road? congrats Matt

commonwealth bank personal loan .. 11.4% interest ....i think Matt

so at the end of the day... is there any significant gains for upgrading an Rb20 fuel rail to a Rb26 fuel rail? thanks Matt

yea ash would be sweet to actually hear one "first ear" ..... as i'm still weighting up my options for turbo ..either t04e wastegated or internal... i really just dont know ..i know there loud .. as everyone has said ..... but i'm used to hearing 370ci plus sprintcars at 15feet away rifle around a 1/4 mile dirt track .. more noise doesnt hurt .. much ..unless u over 128db ..(aka threshold of pain) only concern is getting reamed by the jacks on a nite out somewhere minding my own burnouts .. i mean business.... ..but it happens as they say.. Matt

i did some reading .. with the search button ..amazing ......so basically ignore this post .. or close it ..thanks no screamer for stock turbo ..= sounds gay matt

been thinkin about getting a screamer pipe ..for the hell of it ..and put it on while i get the intercooler fitted ...although what daunts me is what will be the results ......the cars fairly loud now ..does get a bit of attention as it is .... but i just wanna replace the standard dump pipe to some more "beefer" i've neva heard a screamer pipe on a car b4 ... well maybe ..i'm not sure what i'm listenin for are there any down falls to it .....any like things to be aware of ..ie the screamer pipe making any flames or somthing? but on the same token ..do u gain about the same power gains to a split setup? just not venting it to atmosphere .. anyone have either one ... anycar ..doesnt matter . just wanna see what ppl have found with em ...... and if one or the other is worth buying over the other ..... thanks for your time. Matt

bugger .. didnt get to talk to many of u guys that "stayed to 7 but left albert park at 4.30" lol *sighs*

yea .. got there just as they were packing up 4:00 mind you .......not happy jan ..... heard u were the first to leave lol .. i 'ate pikers suppose i'll hang on till auto salon .. hope u guys have forms with ya then.. Matt

that sucks... ur not down in melbourne for work or something are u ..coz that would shit me. Matt

i work for healthforce .. food services assistant at the epworth private hospital ..doing meals and stuff like that .. boring as .. need to get into uni soon and get my enginneers degree finsihed.. no good having diploma's Matt

how "late" in the afternoon u guys gonna be still there for? i finish work at about 4 take me 5mins to get there from where i work. spewing if i miss out. Matt

yea thats teh ticket Roy..... i'm not out for bulk power output .. more so something with good low to top end pull .. and enjoyability ..with the car being an auto ..and 0 -100 around the 7.second area ..if i can take 2 seconds at the most off that i'd be laughing thats for sure. hopefully i'll work it out eventually

hmmm *scratches head* too large? so maybe....... perhaps something with a smaller trim? 46 , 50 or 54 t04E setup .. internally gated http://www.turbocalculator.com/compressor-...ps/t04e-s46.jpg http://www.turbocalculator.com/compressor-...ps/t04e-s50.jpg http://www.turbocalculator.com/compressor-...ps/t04e-s54.jpg one of em has gotta fit ... :headspin: :headspin: thanks

still not bad ..would it be a worth while exercise? sounds like it .. proves my ole man was right again lol Matt

i lookd at GT28R comp maps .. but it was more the other way around .. top end was off the end of the island ..but boost came on pretty early. i've pretty much dismissed the T04 S Trim for sure .. too much lag ..and its pretty old but on teh same note .. u mention a hybrid t04/t3 setup . .funny that coz i'm lookin at one t3 flange ..Super 57 Trim.. both graphd points fall inside the island .. but i'm not sure on its effiency at them points. or if it would work well enough. shuld be attached .. its rough .. no accurate obviously. anyways thanks agian

so is that the biggest problem the guys are having then? .....has anyone before they installed ..had the cams linished and micro honed for any variant..... just a thought... Matt

i;m leaning towards something like a To4B S Trim .. Vtrim just too big for what i want ....gotta thank Roy for helping me out ..makes choosing a turbo a bit easier .. doing the math and all taht for a Strim .. its just outside the surge line by like 500rpm the way i figured it anyways....... that sort of lag can be tuned out with like bigger lift cams and adjustable cam gears? at 18psi i doesnt make useable boost till about 4000grand and just runs out of puff at 7500 ..at 3500 is were the math plotted me out to ..surge/lag country any reccommendations while were on the subject .......so for hijacking dude. Matt

pm sent .. thanks man

being on the topic of turbos once again.. i'm in two minds ....volume over response .... i'm not that good at reading comp. maps.. but if someone can help me out ..i would appreciate it. http://www.turbocalculator.com/compressor-...aps/t04b-v1.jpg

dont sell it man ..

interesting discussion. few valid. but some more arguementative than fact. but "i give up" I'm still going to go thru with my swap. So bugger whats happend. can;t argue with results. Thanks for the posts SK . fair bit of a read . and all makes sence to me (for the most part) I look forward to seeing pics of your install and hopefully we'll see more guys busting out with GTR cams there after. Also SK : u mention one setup u had being converted to solid followers with GTR valve springs. I have a set to accompanying my cams on the way at a later date, is this a better way to go about it? i am i doing the right thing and doing that as well with my cam swap? Thanks again Matt
