Dam straight Damo would rather do SAU them heroin gts4 are 4.1 because they share the same parts from the gtr i think r32 gtst is 4.3 because of the lack of torque from the rb20

Yeah man still got original injectors in there and still have to get remap from jeff from turbo tune. That was running at 12 psi but as adrian said I'll wind it up to 14 pound for the next dyno run and while he does the remap so i feel a little safer. I was just curious what i was running so i got a printout.

sounds good scott......just be carefull if you're planning on running 1bar boost on ceramic wheels......it's not the the turbo dying that you have to worry about but the bits they may find their way into the combustion chambers :thumbsup:

SLED,

Its only the 26's that have the issues with sucking ceramic back in to the motor. :banana:

Providing EGT's are kept in check with a good tune and no track days 14psi is all good on the stocker rb20 turbo.

---

There will be bugger all increase in peak power going from 12-14psi; its the mid range that will sit up and feel alive; transform the whole car in comparison. :thumbsup:

very impressed with my car through the hills last night, Stayed in forth 90% of the time with fantastic low down pick up, Pulls like a f*kn freight train considering the shitty tune. Very loose in the arse end. Ii want a GTR! I used about 30 litres of fuel in about an hour LOL! Once again, EBC greenstuff are fantastic.

yea flat 10.2:1 AFR's arent good for economy.

Was considering putting 3540 on the 25 to crack some big numbers but response like 14psi at 2000rpm is great for those exits.

adrian, sorry to lead you in the wrong direction on the way home hahahaha...lucky i realised when i did!

ahhh ok....I thought they had ceramic wheels too

They do :thumbsup:

For what ever reason the RB26's suck the ceramic back in to the motor where as the single turbo's never do. Most likely a little to do with manifold design and possibly cams.

At 2k? :banana: Thats better than mine; got dyno sheet?

Mine makes an 1psi off idle; by 2000rpm its around 4psi, 2500rpm 8psi and 3000rpm 19+psi.

thats wierd isn't it....I wonder if that's more the exception than the rule....what happens to the bits when they do fly apart then?

One theory could be that due to the cam overlap the bits make their way through the inlet then straight out of the exh valve before the bits get combusted.....poor cats if that is the case!

Just to clear up, Dan (Inline_6) got pulled over at the end of our cruise last night, but the cop just pulled a skyline over for the hell of it coz her boyfriend is on SAU! No defects, no inspection. Was a good night tho, i DEFINATELY need some better light globes, just cant see sweet FA without highbeams.

      There was a great one on Victoria Rd in Gladesville too back in the day. I can only assume GTSBoy is thinking of the mill up on the wollondilly, no restaurant there any more but they have restored the original steam engine on site and run it every few months, have an annual steampunk festival etc @The Bogan, you came to the wrong town for restaurants. we have a few reasonable asian and indian options but the Paragon is as good as it gets otherwise. That brewery is apparently just opened, been meaning to give it a go some time. The Highlands have plenty of fancy options but I suspect you are more a hearty eater than fancy eater

      Going by the intake & injectors I'd be guessing it's a DE, check the head casting number, should be 5L8 on a DET, 5L7 I think is the DE number.

      For future reference, if you need to use Deutsch connectors but don't have the proper crimper for the round style pins, you can get regular style crimp pins too

      No. The castings are all the same. As you have the inlet off, simply measure the diameter of the inlet ports and compare with the freely available on the net sizes of turbo and NA. The NA ones are small.
