supposed to run the new car at various speed & gears.

just like when you get a gearbox rebuild.... going through each gears to run it in, especially the first 500km.

I tell you now its all wrong :(

So why post contrary to that then... oh... i get it. A litle bit of sarcasm.

Damn i should have noticed that sooner...

Well, go do some research if you dont wanna listen to someone that has :)

Some Manufacturers use Mobil 1 synthetic right out of the box, dont even use the "mineral for 100kms" etc etc.

Why you might ask? Because they have all realised that it doesnt make a difference with the motors of today :)

I have Castrol Edge 10-60 Fully Synth waiting to be dropped into my motor. Bed the rings on the dyno (less than 20mins) and wind up the wick.

So Joel, the point... go hard just like in Shepp :)

hey great choice of a car dude as my old man has one to him self and the compairment to the skyline coupe with hicas is that i believe its quicker then the gtst but not faster and the skyline handle faster speed around corners than the Mazda 3 SP23 but the mazda is a much more relible car to drive , verry nice. cheers

So it can hold 6 Latte's :)

Perfect for those hairdressers conventions.!

Ha ha Mr DECA winner

Lets see how funny it is when my 3 hands ur cheater wrx its arse to it at DECA ???

Then again maybe not :laugh:

    • It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about. Reliability of everything in a 34 drops MASSIVELY above the 300kw mark. Keeping everything going great at beyond that value will cost ten times the $. Clutches become shit, gearboxes (and engines/bottom ends) become consumable, traction becomes crap. The good news is looking legalish/actually being legal is slighly under the 300kw mark. I would make the assumption you want to ditch the stock plenum too and want to go a front facing unit of some description due to the cross flow. Do the bends on a return flow hurt? Not really. A couple of bends do make a difference but not nearly as much in a forced induction situation. Add 1psi of boost to overcome it. Nobody has ever gone and done a track session monitoring IAT then done a different session on a different intercooler and monitored IAT to see the difference here. All of the benefits here are likely in the "My engine is a forged consumable that I drive once a year because it needs a rebuild every year which takes 9 months of the year to complete" territory. It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about with this car.
    • By "reverse flow", do you mean "return flow"? Being the IC having a return pipe back behind the bumper reo, or similar? If so... I am currently making ~250 rwkW on a Neo at ~17-18 psi. With a return flow. There's nothing to indicate that it is costing me a lot of power at this level, and I would be surprised if I could not push it harder. True, I have not measured pressure drop across it or IAT changes, but the car does not seem upset about it in any way. I won't be bothering to look into it unless it starts giving trouble or doesn't respond to boost increases when I next put it on the dyno. FWIW, it was tuned with the boost controller off, so achieving ~15-16 psi on the wastegate spring alone, and it is noticeably quicker with the boost controller on and yielding a couple of extra pounds. Hence why I think it is doing OK. So, no, I would not arbitrarily say that return flows are restrictive. Yes, they are certainly restrictive if you're aiming for higher power levels. But I also think that the happy place for a street car is <300 rwkW anyway, so I'm not going to be aiming for power levels that would require me to change the inlet pipework. My car looks very stock, even though everything is different. The turbo and inlet pipes all look stock and run in the stock locations, The airbox looks stock (apart from the inlet being opened up). The turbo looks stock, because it's in the stock location, is the stock housings and can't really be seen anyway. It makes enough power to be good to drive, but won't raise eyebrows if I ever f**k up enough for the cops to lift the bonnet.
    • There is a guy who said he can weld me piping without having to cut chassis, maybe I do that ? Or do I just go reverse flow but isn’t reverse flow very limited once again?
