I can tell the sound of a RB25DET and a blitz BOV from a mile away :D

nah, just ive heard them alot and can recognise what they sound like quite easily... hmmmm... maybe it was that black R33 down the road but it usually dont come past my house and it dont sound like that... sounds quieter (stock exhaust, bov n ****)

check this oout..

i took my car in to a bodykit place to pick a front bar for it..

i was thinking of a 400r bar..

when i said that to the little asain dude he flipped... :lol:

hes like "wtf this is a genuine nizmo kit!! u cant just throw it away.. i fix for u ill fix it and prime it by monday (i took it in thurs)"

i was like wtf?

he said those kits were expansive as fck and heaps hard to get..

so im like kool ill keep it :):D

he took the front bar off straight away and sure enough there was the nizmo sighn on the back of the bar..

so this explains why i have nizmo badges where the GT badge is supposed to be.. ;):)

na the insurance company had to chose the place

its glossip st. smash (across the road from where i got the paint job quote mark..)

then they refered me to steven's presteige body shop. who reconised the bar and are gonna fix it.. actually the bar should be done and primmed by now ..

now i gotta take the car back to smash place and get them to fix the bonned and bar support (which is WAY more bent then i could imagine! :lol: ) then theyre gonna spray and fit the bar again..

:lol:

then im gonna roll again.. :P :uh-huh:

    • Yeah pretty impressive hey, good to see quality products not over-shooting their prices. That's what drew me to buy the hypergear turbo, just a shame I've never got the chance to see it in action
    • Thank you GTSBoy and MBS206 I have done the compression test with the motor out of the vehicle, reason for the test was to see if I needed to remove the head and do rings etc while its out. I'm in the process of respraying the vehicle and tidying up a few things. Story behind it all is I've just purchased the skyline and it was running when I got it, never drove it on the street though as I wanted to pull it down and do it all up again before registering it. the gentleman I purchased it from told me the motor has a forged bottom end and has a decent tune through it but I was going to pull the sump off anyway to see if it is a forged bottom end. that's why I thought id do a compression test beforehand. 
    • Man, I'm kind of amazed that the price of the turbo has not changed in 7 years. Everything else is inflating beyond reason, but not this? Good on Tao / hypergear I guess? Anyways, good luck with the sale!
    • I'm selling my brand new, in the box, never used Hypergear ATR45 - and I had some additions I paid for a few yrs back when I purchased it. Never ended up having the rest of the money to add all the mods at once, so I just ended up slowly selling each part. I originally had it internally gated, with the dump pipe, however I found it was incompatible with what I was going to use it for, so I contacted (I think Ken) from Hypergear, and he and I messaged back and forth & he got me to ship the turbo back, where they modified it & made it externally gated, and gave me the 5 bolt dump pipe attachment for custom welding. (Photos below) This turbo like I said has never touched the inside of an engine bay, it's completely brand new, never used, been sitting in the same box it arrived in, covered in plastic & all. Below are the photos of it: And while the guys at Hypergear were making it in-shop, they sent me some photos of the process: I'm looking at selling this just because I'm in need of the money right now, and don't have plans on modifying the 34 anytime soon - and from reviews & peformance sheets, this turbo had amazing results back when I was researching. The turbo was purchased in 2018 for $1.9k, with the mods I got added on. Looking at the website now, for the same turbo they sell (ATR45SAT), with the current addons it adds up to $1830 for the turbo Current addons included: - Bolted dump adaptor - Ball bearing CHRA - Braided oil feeding line So I'm looking to possibly sell it for around $1800, with shipping included in that 1.8k, It cost me around $120 to ship - so yeah thought I'd throw it out there and see if anyone was interested in purchasing. Cheers!
