Paul - be aware the 2540's will be horrible on the track. Especially the tracks you guys have where you are on and off the throttle a lot.

I know changing turbo's is no big deal but it is something to consider as for a track car they don't get much worse than 2540's for a set-up. (unless it has a 3.0L engine)

Everyone,

Firstly thanks for your input.

Although im going to track this R32 it still has to get me to work 2-3 times a week, thats about 5000km per year, the J-Boy thing looks nice but with the cage and everything else it is a little too trackie and not enough streetie for me. And the main thing is its in QLD and rego swap and that side of the hassle. Im keen to also learn the black art of suspension set up and do it my way.

After driving the 2540's Im happy, boost was on full at about 4000 rpm, and a fatter mid range is possible once the outlet and inlet is freed up from the restrictions (2.5 cat and STD airflow's) and cams are worked for mid range. Keep in mind I do have a 3lt animal donk ready to drop in so I think I will stick with the vspec.

I have had very few people telling we its a rip off and too expensive, so Im happy to part with the cash. I have advised that I will take the car and a deposit will be coming on Friday.

Thanks everyone for your opinions, and I will unveil the final product on the 2nd Aug once its completed and registered. Im taking the car for 2 weeks to track ready her before I push her round the track and put it on the road!

New post to come!

Thanks again everyone.

FYI,

I have paid a deposit on the car and have it at home, I will pay for it in full next week when it gets registered.

The engine comes out this weekend to have the sump baffle put in, and a few there things as well. Beers will be on for anyone who wants to pop in, except fatz, he will slow production and drink all the resources!

      R32 Sedan - Grip and Drift (have my cake and eat it too build)

      Hell, I'm sufficiently wary of the ZSS suspension arms, let alone something like a hub.

      Got it back home and got started pulling the hub off and diagnose the issue. Axle was stuck after removing the 36mm nut so i used a 3 jaw puller to try and push it out and... eH5FXvJ8.mp4   spend the next few hours trying to remove the axle from the remaining hub as it was very much jammed in there when the spindle sheared off. resulting damage as below R53AIy6 - Imgur.mp4   Looks like the was already a stress fracturing in the spindle as can be seen with the darker cracked section My working theory is maybe when the pinion gear exploded last year the shock put through the hub was the initial crack. Then a few events later it finally let go. Just lucky it happened where it did and not 190km/h on the next sweeper or into the hairpin The bearing/hub assembly went in in 2019 and were non-genuine "ZSS" assemblies and no nails were harmed in the process. #BreakHubsNotNails

      EFR7670 exhaust housing selection RB26

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      Before all the EFR fan boys come in, have a look at: https://www.garrettmotion.com/racing-and-performance/performance-catalog/turbo/g-series-ii-g30-825-58mm/ It also comes in a T4 1.06 divided housing. I would dare say if you want response & also decent power, this thing would chop.   AND apologies, just re-read your post, you've already bought the turbo... whatever you do, make sure you stick with divided housing and proper twin scroll manifold.

      People have got to stop doing that. ShatGPT is not a search engine. It is a hallucination factory.   I also would recommend the 1.05. The .83 will "work" for you , in that it will be more responsive, but I think you'll find that it won't be anywhere near as good running it out to 8000rpm as the big housing will be.
