cheers bud. look even nicer now it doesnt sit on a slant and so high also with the external gate sittin in the engine bay

[r_speedfreak_r]

i agree that looks really good polished. I've always only been interested in building a car with a purpose and that was to drive it. Never been interested in putting my car on show or impressing others so as long as it does what its suppose to i'll be happy. Thanks for all your insight tho people

[LTHLRB]

mate, iv never intended to put my car into a show.. doesnt show the potential of the driver or the power im more interested in drifting it and making a shitload of smoke and noise.. i just got it polished because it was for free, might get rid of it though and put a propper one on because my plenum isnt polished.

Last night a mate offered me to put my car into autosalon next year and i refused straight away.. waste of time and money.

goodluck with your car bud

ive been asked to enter my car into shows a few times free of charge as well i just dont like the idea of people making money of my car after i put so much hard work and money into it

i built the car for myself not for some one else to make money

imo

STR8E180, its not about the money, i think its a wank having your car on display for no reason, doesnt faze me unless you go on dyno and shred the thing apart! if its a club thing then its alright or something like promotional work..

but as i said earlier, id rather tear the track apart and destroy some tyres

str8e180 how much for a comp cover with the AR .70 on it with an elbow?

well if u get me the housing i can weld the bend onto it for ya

[STR8E180]

no compressor housing comes with a elbow already on it

yeah i ment, get a housing off u, and u weld the elbow on it? if i do buy one

[STR8E180]

yeah i ment, get a housing off u, and u weld the elbow on it? if i do buy one

yeah thats cool

another option is to use a silicone bend (just letting u know)

[LTHLRB]

yeah but if u c in my pic, it pretty much touches my exhaust manifold (a bee's dick away) it has been moved away from the head and honed out a touch on the manifold, also the wastegate pipe comes out of the side just under the flange, not underneith (overboost problems) as this manifold is a cheapo one.

so yeah, cant use silicone bends.

[STR8E180]

ok i guess welding an elbow is ur only option then

[LTHLRB]

yep. its already been done, a greddy elbow has been welded on, but looks odd because its not polished like the turbo, really i dont care because it will still make power, true?

[discopotato03]

LoL, you couldn't resist, like a kid with a new toy at show 'n' tell

The SR setup should be wicked, good luck man!

*waits for Disco to come sprinting over, all frothy mouthed and sweaty palmed over the TS setup*

Nup , T04Z's are not my thing . Too much T4 dinosaur technology in them .

GT4088R's kill those if they're set up propely , exy but they do the trick .

Boy has HKS got y'all in with the drilled port shrouded comp covers !

BTW this does nothing for you if the compressor doesn't actually surge , it can be a step backwards .

u could always polish the bend as well?? but yeah its not like its gonna add power LOL

Man, shuuush, you cant put reality in front of turbine whistle!!! I don't think the surge slotted HKS T51's are specc'd any better then the other options in the same power window, but I've heard of half a dozen ppl that have upgrade their well matched, non - surging setups for HKS items; purely for noise (check the YouTube trash for evidence of popularity - ha)

Its Garrets step i guess, to remain attractive to F&F fans heading towards the Rice tech mecca that is the GTK's from Turbonetics

I don't think you should swap it. It doesnt make it look any less tough & it still looks awesome. I'd swap you for mine if you lived in brissie. I dont really want to have my car off the road it's planned it be going again after blowing up the old engine in january

STR8E180 Just had a look at your cars. I dont really like s13's but i love 180's and yours would have to be one of if not the best example ive seen. Everything has been done right and with a purpose looks unreal and makes great power. As for your r32 gtr it's the car i wish i bought instead so need not to say more lol
