Oh that is strange. Yes perhaps ceramic + 4wd aren't suited.

The ACS guy said they have been getting the same problems with hi-po WRXs, so they fitted Kevlars in them and they have been good for going on 8 months now... Now they're trying Skylines. Seems promising.

Sorry! Didn't think my little clutch story deserved its own thread.

Welcome and chat away :blink:

mine lasted over a year of everyday driving and launching few times a week

mines made a little more than when yours was stock slimjim if i remeber correctly you made 172RWKW and i was making 177 i think im making a little more now will find out 26th of may @ PGA's dyno day but will be an AWKW reading

/edit

hey peeps...everyone beware of a white 70's model celica from down south, couple of my mates were at a servo down that way last night after a bit of a hills run and 5 dudes came over from that car and started shit, kicked the shit out of a R32 4DR, including cooler, bonnet, roof, front windscreen, the lot. then attempted to steal the car by ripping him out of it. couple of other people's cars were damaged to.. these people will get what's coming to them. be careful people, far to many dickheads running around having no respect for other people's property..

take it sleazy.....ash.

7000 RPM launch is just silly and is not really needed

7000rpm was an example stating he doesn't bounce it off the limiter and drop it. :)

BUT.... You'll find as you run larger turbo's start making more power you'll be required to raise rev's higher to get off the line without it bogging down.

Even the RB20DET GTS4's get off the line nice and easily with bugger all rev's as they boost fairly quickly and make good boost. BIG turbo's tend not to make as much boost in the lower gears, which is why a stock turbo'd rb can hang next to an rb making 100-200rwkw more with a larger turbo until third gear when rolling on the throttle from say 50-60km/h or so.

Thats gotta suck, down south is f**ked these days all the wanks with white nike hats on the side. A club lock always helps out tho.

Nothings changed from 10years ago.... It used to be Hallet Cove and Morphette Vale when I was hooning around in my teens and early 20's.

Walk the streets down at Hallette Cove was extremely dangerous it = guaranteed bashing by the local 'crews'. Morphett vale was fairly bad. Just be smart; don't stare, don't drive like a dick cutting people off and unless you have numbers ignore if some one try's to start shit, simply don't talk back and most importantly know when to zip it and take off as you don't know who they are.

Its everywhere....

When I was young and silly I had my car kicked and punched just out side of town near melbourne street because I wouldn't do a burn out. Pay back was fun but it did leave me feeling a little flat to be honest.

      Unsolicited advice? Keep the engine as close to stock as you can. Nothing wrong with adding some boost and making a little more power, but given where you are, you really don't want to try to make it into a monster. I can't imagine the roads are up to it, and the lack of locla support when it grenades will be a ball ache. FWIW, If there is a dyno around that you can access, then brand new injectors are a good idea, which will lead you to (at least) putting a Nistune in it, which will allow you to put an R35 AFM on it, all of which will make it possible to make it much much nicer to drive and live with.

      List all of your mods. It sounds like an aftermarket ECU hitting rev limiter. Like a valet mode, or a cold rpm limiter?

      "Cheap" bolt on turbo on RB25DET NEO

      By tylink720 · Posted

      @Kapr Haha yeah thats the one. I missed that you had a built up engine, I wouldn't want to run it on there either then. It was good in my situation just to replace the original turbo on a stock engine. @MBS206Yep definitely not a replacement for anything name brand
