From what I've read people do it to reduce the cooler pipe length and increase response.... at the same time I've read it reduces torque and increased the power band up higher in to the rev range so weather it works or not im not sure.... most likely a decent tune needs to be performed after installing one.

the stocker is great for decent power, but the less piping the better/neater, plus the pipe does not have to cross over a hot engine with a front facing plenum... on a relatively stock motor a bigger plenum can hinder performance, but on say 350rwkw+ i believe it can help alot

waste of money.

When you can make over 300rwkw on the stock one

why change it? Doesnt pose a restriction or hinder the car at all

first everyone says u hit a brick wall at 300rwkw and now its over 300....man i wish someone would make u there mind...

eh? You dont read/understand english very well.

Might i suggest you go and re-read the thread

We are waiting for a lot of R&D to backup the dribble you carry on with.

    • I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
    • The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.
    • No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.
    • Yes they do. For some maybe. But for those used the most by abusers, ie Skylines, the numbers are known. The stock eyebrow height for R32/3 Skylines is about 365/375mm or thereabouts. The minimum such heights are recorded in adjacent columns in the database.
    • Hmmm, interesting. Makes me wonder whether there is bias as well. It's the cheapest fuel, so it is used for all kinds of ill-maintained shitboxes which are bound to have issues regardless. Nicer cars tend to require higher octane rated fuel and can't use it anyway. FWIW, the official NSW E10 facts page is decent.
