lol i really dont know why you guys give her so much shit :(

being envious is sooo hard for some, sometimes.

this could honestly go on for soo long, and you say i need to harden up,

uniqueness is one thing not many people can have because they prefer to be sheep in the flock.

i would prefer to be that black sheep who dosent follow the follow the flock

envious... :(;):):laugh: Sorry but no.

While it was a smart ass way of saying it. Being unique does not mean its a good thing.

Just to get close to a mildly modified turbo car you will be looking at anywhere from $8000 up. If you have that much cash just to throw away on being "unique" then hey go for it.

I guess the other option would be supercharger, it will make close to a turbo and have a nice power curve. Not as much top end power but hey better bang for buck than giggle gas and N/A, plus its in there you don't have to worry about taking the tank in and out, much less likely to get defected.

*This is not "giving you shit" this one is constructive criticism*

im pretty sure she aint the type to drag every set of lights so i dont think the temperary power of the nos is really an issue. clearly the woman likes car shows and thats what its for.

chucking a turbo on a na skyline sounds a lil lame ta me. i mean you can prob go out n buy a turbo 1 for cheaper, what would be the point of paying more for something pretty much identical.

please dont tell the guy that, that stuck a RB25DET in my car im sure glad he did

+1

well said

+1 all that matters is Cara enjoys driving it and show'n'shining it

if i wanted a turbo car i would go buy one, the prices of the R34 GTT's have come down a bit now, so it would be cheaper to go buy one instead of chucking a turbo onto my n/a engine, which i will agree is quite lame really, and a waste of time.

and in my eyes being unique is a good thing. your obviously one that follows the flock and wouldnt know a thing about uniqueness............a keyboard warrior perhaps?

not everyone buys a car for power you know, unlike your self who obviously has power issues and thinks that having the most power makes you the best person in the world..............well me thinks not, however yes it might be impressive, its not like im gonna bend down and kiss your feet because of it.

i have a different approach to what i consider power to be, and what i use it for is very very different to obviosuly what you use it for. If i choose to throw shit loads of money into my non turbo, that is my decison, that is what makes me happy, but it also makes me stand out a little more than everyone else who has a turbo....................which is fine by me.

i am not afriad to be unique, you however are.

and your so called "constructive critism" , place it on someone who gives a damn, cause i dont. If i wanted constructive critism, i would go see the people who actually do stuff to my car, and dont a keyboard warrior.

1) Power is not everything, I never said it was, I have said that just to be unique does not mean that it is good. What you get and for the money you spend on it N/A is not worth it. I don't have massive amounts of power, never claimed to :laugh:

2) Afraid to be unique... don't make me laugh, you don't know the first thing about my car because unlike you I don't need peoples approval from other people about it :)

3) While we are on the subject of you knowing about it... what do I use my car for ?

3) "but it also makes me stand out a little more than everyone else who has a turbo....................which is fine by me." - Yes but being the smartest kid in the retard class is not a good thing. ;)

4)If you don't want criticism about your car why post about your shit and what you are doing on a public forum ?

So over it, you obviously have your way right or wrong its a big meh. You want to continue bring it to PM, I will be more than happy to discuss it. Otherwise, its done :(

im pretty sure this has all been heard before and discussed in another thread bout 2months ago. i think she's heard advice n made her choice

if you wanna complain bout things people do to their car look at the 1 seater convertable wrx with air brushings underneath the car, who the hell is gonna see those other than your mechanic so he can know to overcharge you.

and another great idea being convertable you can look like a loner and everyone can see you :( not to mention the gear stick between ya legs so it looks like ya jacking yaself off (anyone he looks at while driving would have to be a bit freaked out)

You have to be kidding!

NOS has to be the best 'Bang for buck' option on the market. Name another mod that can give between 50 - 250hp for around 1G?

If you think you can supercharge an RB and ever get it through regency (although technically you should be able to) you havent been involved in modifying cars for very long, either that or you have an excess of BUMB. A supercharged line is a defect waiting to happen, and more likely to be noticed than a line with NOS.

Another question: - why the concern about having to refill the tank? at 14lb boost you roughly double the fuel used compared to no boost, I've never heard of this as an argument not to turbo a car.

NOS is a great way to get aditional torque and power out of any motor, especially NA, and its there when you need it. My car has 250rwkw, but I very rarely use that many, so much like NOS its only there for the few times I need it.

On another note think of the money she is saving each year on insurance, it would more than pay for all the NOS you use in the year.

    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm. 
    • Wouldn’t touch par if they gave it to me. You need to ask how much power you’re looking to make and then add about 50% to it because that’s what you’ll end up making  The factory box says no more at about 350kw or so, the upgraded synchro boxes won’t handle much over 500kw for long and at that point you’re looking at an auto or dog engagement manual,  once you’ve gone dog engagement you may as well go sequential, they cost a little bit more but it’s worth it  also while you’re at it you should upgrade the transfer case with 10 friction plates
