Should i enquire as to to what your bunky is? LOL

There is always going t obe heaps of people to come along to these events. Upto Jippa and Chucky as to what thjey are doing in that dept. :down:

its a stagea but has abit of a laggy turbo not suitable for motokanas and small tracks i dont think. It makes the power just not in the right rpm range. Looks like ill just have to rev the shit out of it instead :D

Edited by unique1
I'd be in for sure, as I was a spectator at one of these events, and it looked like a whole heap of fun. Just to clarify, is this open to Stagea owners only?

If not, I could gather up quite a few ppl :down:

Mark

stageas have first dibs. if numbers are not filled by the end of jan then its open to others

id be keen if ive got my stagea and run in the new motor by then.

if it gets to needing other non stagea's i would have one mate at least thats keen, its a wagon but not a stagea...

will put you on the list as a maybe then

i've got a imported 6 cylinder turbocharged awd wagon that lives in a garage with a stagea.. is that good enough? :P

i think the legnum deserves a spot...................................................

.............just so i can chop it :laughing-smiley-014: jk, i think the response and weight of the legnum will kill all in the small motorkana courses

i'd be around the track and parked up before you even started making boost :P

ps. gearbox comes out next week.. got an engine lifter handy? :thumbsup:

straight or v6?

hmmmm your on then short list

2 straight 3's that happen to sit in a V configuration :(

Let Mitchy in.....i want to see how the mitsi wagon goes :/ Plus Kylie will be entering to if she has a car still? ;)

p.s. Bit off topic but, Mitchy did you fix that noise in the front suspension??

yeah i did! due to the stiffness of the legnum's chassis, my car tripods as i reverse out of the driveway, and the front springs were just becoming un-captive, so i just moved the spring seat up a few millimetres and its perfect :)

if i cant bring the stagea for some odd reason i can come in the GTO anyway then ill compete with that Legnum :( If u dont want non stageas then thats cool but im just saying ill take one spot and use my gto if the stagea isnt running at the time (hopefully it will be going fine)

    • GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.
    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
