shaun was pretty happy with it being a r33 auto.

obviously the 3k high stall and trans is robbing a bit of its power potential, but all in all im happy.

its very smooth until you here the turbo start whistling.

past that its actually a bit crazy.

Very Nice, was a touch warm today also. Nice cool day and you'll see that 300rwkw. :stupid:

Turns out I have a few questions.....

The 11 power runs? Did Shaun have a fiddle?

Did you get to the bottom of the lack of top end? Suspected torque converter?

not sure i wasnt there.

i think he did two runs one after the other so heat soak and molten tyres would show up.

299.9 then 296.8

its at a constant 24 psi which shaun thinks is a good happy number on shell 98.

the afr is now in the low 11's once boost starts, to redline in a constant line, which is something that John never managed to achieve, and knock is maxing out at 18. but averaging 12.

im not sure if im still missing 50 kws or thats all it has in it with the standard nissan head gasket?

with the 3000rpm high stall it will do a 11, so for a daily driven shopping trolley i might leave it alone for a while and just enjoy it.

cheers

Charge takes only an hour or so. :(

My sister currently has the video camera but I can grab it easily.

RE: The std Nissan gasket. I have no idea.. Its doing pretty damn well. its not o-ring'd I presume?

I've seen cometics around pretty cheap ~$200-$250.

how come you took it to shaun this time and not john?

mainly to get shaun to fine tune my pfc boost ccontroller setup as he has had some really good results with them, and John thinks there crap/doesnt know how to set them up well.

also as my first visit to Boostworx i figured i should go see what all you guys rave about..

top bloke..

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
