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

they are 17x 8 +17 fronts and 17x 9.5 +24 rear :dry:

Are they Brentons old meshies? Specs sound similar. Look like they sit pretty mint, full body shots needed (in daylight) though :kiss:

i just went down the street to get drinks for tomorrow, and had a guy come up and introduce himself to me.

it was none other then Mr Senwill himself, he liked my car!(and i liked his, brand new twin turbo range rover, he also has a brand new single turbo petrol one.. :P )

had a chat with him about a bit of stuff, then he gave me a Drift Central 3 dvd! put a smile on my face to meet someone like that in a little town like this, AND he was the nicest dude you will ever meet!

stoked!

Well a massive thanks to Ryan, Aussie Dyno and Turbosmart for seeing my car pull 198.1 rwkw today :( apparently im a bashed cat away from 220. ill post up my dyno sheet once i get my camera working. Highly recommend Aussie Dyno, made very very sure i was running 100% safe while still squeezing power out of it!

oh yeah, the hoodies wont be at vili's tonight, due top lack of interest combined with my family down from interstate. next pick up will be my cruise on monday

hey guys, after an opinion!

under boost, my 25 is making a high pitched squeel - from area around the turbo; i'm thinking it may be exhaust/manifold leakage.

I havent really investigated by removing bits and pieces under the bonnet yet, - i might take the heat shield off the std turbo tomorrow and have a geeze for any signs of soot and black crap.

Anyone had this issue before?

yes mate i had this exact same problem about a month ago, gasket between turbo and manifold mate...

ahh, so it very well may be the culprit! I asked my usual mechanic, and he guessed that a gasket would probably be the cause.

so basically, you got to remove exhaust front pipe and dump, remove turbo, replace gasket + new studs yeah?

doesnt sound like much, but it'd be a pretty legnthy job hey Ryan?

      Might import a stagea

      By iamhe77 · Posted

      Not sure the US can import anything other than the C34 Stagea's, but if you can and you need to to tow, DO NOT under any circumstances get an M35 Stagea. If it is just as a family car and your country/state allows it, absolutely and definitely get an M35 (3.5L if possible as it is effectively a 350Z) over a C34.

      My BMW E39 528i touring

      By PranK · Posted

      Thanks for that, I'll check it all out. I can always do the brakes last anyway if its a problem.  The 16's are super cool, if they do fit I'll cruise around with them for a bit.

      My BMW E39 528i touring

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Well, that's kinda the point. The calipers might interfere with the inside of the barrels 16" rims are only about 14" inside the barrels, which is ~350mm, and 334mm rotors only leave about 8mm outboard for the caliper before you get to 350, And.... that;s not gunna be enough. If the rims have a larger ID than that, you might sneak it in. I'd be putting a measuring stick inside the wheel and eyeballing the extra required for the caliper outboard of the rotor before committing to bolting it all on.

      Neil's R33 Gts-t Build

      By Duncan · Posted

      OK, so again it has been a bit of a break but it was around researching what had been done since I didn't have access to Neil's records and not everything is obvious without pulling stuff apart. Happily the guy who assembled the engine had kept reasonable records, so we now know the final spec is: Bottom end: Standard block and crank Ross 86.5mm forgies, 9:1 compression Spool forged rods Standard main bolts Oil pump Spool billet gears in standard housing Aeroflow extended and baffled sump Head Freshly rebuilt standard head with new 80lb valve springs Mild porting/port match Head oil feed restrictor VCT disabled Tighe 805C reground cams (255 duration, 8.93 lift)  Adjustable cam gears on inlet/exhaust Standard head bolts, gasket not confirmed but assumed MLS External 555cc Nismo injectors Z32 AFM Bosch 023 Intank fuel pump Garret 2871 (factory housings and manifold) Hypertune FFP plenum with standard throttle   Time to book in a trip to Unigroup
