if its on your car already and running ...... its pretty easy to work out if its a DET version.. she wont make full boost to around 4000rpm

laggy sons of bitches on the 20s..... but great fun i reckon.

some where steel wheeled.. in the earlier Leopards and 300zx's .... most of the later ones are ceramic rear..... 15psi would be safe amount to run without leaning too hard on the motor or the turbo if either of the 2 arent in 100% working condition.

OP6 on teh rear housing is what u gotta spot before u cough up bills for turbo.

mine cost me 150bucks....lol few months of boost .. freed it up and it stopped making shitty bearing noises..... but gives me the impression its bush not ball bearing'd

Thanks if thats the case im pretty sure its the DET version it doesn't start spooling till round 3800 full boost at 4600 got told it was because the cooler and piping i was running plus the timing is out i think. 600/400/100 i think pretty big all the same with 3'' piping on it and only 7psi. Will timing make the turb come in later

I agree Ithink some were steel wheeled. Also the Vg30det's came from the factory with forged internals. So obviously they were meant to handle more boost from the factory.

    • I used to have Walbro 255's when they were a pretty common update. (or were they 044? 040?) In any case I had a dirty tank. I thought the tank was good, but I would find the filter would clog in maybe ~50km of driving. If the issue persists, well, your fuel system or tank has crap in it that the pump is sucking up.
    • Hi. Ok thanks for the info. I/we do not know what tune is on that Nistune ECU so it is why there is stock ECU and that Nistune is for later when the car is done. I have guy who tunes Nistune and other ECU so i will then take it to him to see and properly tune for the car   And for the update. On 99,9% it is bad fuel pump. Which is wierd cuz it is like 2 years old(brand new walbro 255) and that filter (also brand new) was dirty.  I was alwaya pumped premium(100) on very good petrol station so i dont know how is that possible...  
    • Dear folks My family members have 4 different cars : Triton 2015 and Corolla 2011 and Mazda3 2012 and Hyundai Elantra 2014 Looking to buy engine oil funnel spill free What I found are are below  https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0BBTTJNKX?ref=ppx_pt2_mob_b_prod_image&th=1 https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/145553221359?srsltid=AfmBOoqYBU6Ptw0LU_bAp_k67U3qkF97HHvePkA7iHZw8vUmiwoIRaRr https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09X23TCS5?th=1 Is there a funnel with attachment that fits most cars ? Don't mind to spend for a decent quality  Thx  
    • Stock ECU (or more accurately stock tune) absolutely refuses to go over 10psi and behaves like you have seen. The Nistune is the same if it is the stock tune. If the Nistune chip has been tuned, the resulting tune could be literally anything for any combination of parts. The Nistune just makes the stock ECU Tunable.
    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here
