Had a quick look at RB26 results: try this

18psi with high flowed steel wheels = 280 odd kws

18psi with -5s = 316kws .........

Only had a quick look - maybe there are others making more power on high flow steel wheels?? Post em up if you find them.....

334kw at 1.1 bar and pretty safe AFR's........with -5's stock cams & internals

A little more boost would've seen 350/360kw easy.

yeh its all internal man that why im getting mine hi-flowed atm

Hi flo is the way to go atm. Too much police attention otherwise.

Had a funny time last night with a handful of cops. At a breatho, and the cop had to ask about my bike, then more cops come over and for 5 minutes I'm talking to 4 cops about how fast my bike is :3some: I did ask "is this you as a cop asking or you personally asking?". Cop was right into bikes and would have talked all night. Had I been in the Stagea however .......

Yeah I think that'd be ideal, but do u know any place that can hiflow and steel wheel some stock 32's for the same price as some new garrett 2860's ? ;\ I wish I knew of such a place.... street legal ftw

(Tho having said that I'm really hanging out for nationalisation of the vehicle standards scheme)

cost come into die grinding out your internals Ben its not just a matter of changing the center cartridge and put steel wheels in and away you go there is a lot of work involved

i forget what thread it was now but someone asked if there was any visual difference and yes there is, wont go into details for obvious reasons

But $1250 ea is still uber expensive.... 15 hours of work at $80 per hour... does it seriously take that long?

-D

Yeah, I honestly think hi-flow or not, they will ping you regardless. I've seen a hi-flow and standard turbo off in my hands and I can definately tell what's what. As Steve said, not going into details but they are there.

It's not only the labour, it's the cost of the new cartridge and wheels also :3some:

SO

my engine seems to be f**kED :down:

has basically no low end power , shoots carbon water , missfires like a bitch , radiator fluid has particles of crap in it

seems to me its blown a head gasket though it doesnt blow bubbles through radiator when thermostat has heated up ??

its shitting me to tears , any clue's as to what would be causing this ??

have u also checked under the oil cap?

the head gasket might be flowing water into the oil

if that looks like iced coffee = BHG.

know this all to well from blownig a few 7m's in my old cressy (they dont seem to like high compression)

Yeah Mitch sounds like a head gasket, I'd put money on it.

yeah thats what im thinking ,

gotta love being unemployed with no money :down:

these peoples seem to think its bearings

Shopping list has now been removed..... now for the rest of the de-ricing. :down:

    • 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!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
