lol smartass... i shoulda just been happy with what i had with the 25/30 but no i had to go for more...2 years later hmmmmm lol

How far off is it, Ben? What's left to do? I can't wait to see what Marky-Mark can do with your tune :P

Joe at Profab has made the 4" dump pipe for me and fitted the O2 sensor, plumbed the gate back and is remaking the cooler pipes (some were still made of steel) and what was there wouldn't work with the front facing plenum and different location of the turbo. Joe also modified the power steering pump to space the pulley forward in the bracket. Here's some pics.

Ben, the race is on! Who will be ready first?

Mine has no ...suspension inc. top arms, lower arms, coilovers, caster rods etc (Dave borrowed all that for Superlap)

...race bucket and harness (Dave borrowed that too)

...HKS igniter (Dave again)

...Rear diff (just had it modified and rebuilt)

...Transfer case (currently having it modified and rebuilt)

...Turbo kit (sold the lowies and waiting on something special to arrive by courier)

...Head (its off so i can fit a slightly thicker gasket to lower the compression to run massive boost)

...Gearbox (its sold and PPG straight cut dogbox platinum model to be fitted)

...clutch (going to qld to be reco'd by NPC)

...Tune (Autronic in and tuned for pump not for race fuel)

...Pipework (new turbo to intercooler pipes to be done by Hypertune)

...Parachute (needed with the new set-up)

all this and i still think ill be racing before you will be :D

Cooler pipes finished today and car at auto-elecs getting oil pressure warning light and AFR meter wired. Just have to run a line to the ECU's MAP sensor and then we'll fill it with fluids and fire it up.

You've got a bet, Paulie! One shiny, silver 20-cent piece and a cold beverage sound fair?

Game?

    • We have a huge update coming in the next few months, version 5 of Invision will be released. I'm holding off any changes until after this change as I'm not sure what features will be removed or introduced.
    • Yeah, plenty of air flow, there is a dedicated path that feeds the air in to the OEM intake tube behind the bumper As for a "tangible effect", maybe, but getting the pod/intake air out of the hot engine bay is worth it psychologically to me, even if it gives no performance difference, so the tangible effect in my Lizard brain saysss yessss  In the end, to me a tangible effect isn't always about performance, sometimes it a sound or a look, or even a...... feeling  Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga
    • yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching
    • Quite right, if you make it to that pension you deserve every cent
    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
