Just a question... why go to the trouble of putting nice gauges all the way over on the other side of the dash when the only time you would read them is when you were drifting around a right hand bend, at which point i would be watching the road rather than my gauges? I can't even read the numbers without blowing up the image.

I'm by no means having a dig at you for it, as I believe everyone should modify their car in what ever way makes them feel good... I just have never understood it???

I will say that I am happier to see that you didn't just get the hole saw and cut straight into the dash like some... very handy work there with the glass mate, well done.

but the thing is if you know what the gauges are (ie position) and what the needles usually sit at, all you need to do is take a quick glance, check the needle position and see how its going....

it the same with the gauges place under the head deck near the shifter - its hard to read them there aswell....

    • Update Got turbo back from hypergear, installed everything etc. Bled coolant, wasn't smoking so I thought beauty she's sorted now. Went on a drive, car up to temp, let it idle for about 15 seconds, gave it some gas...nice puff of smoke again. Fml No doubt my turbo was pretty worn anyway but nonetheless frustrating that the problem persists.
    • Lol, yeh sure. But I'm not changing the head on this engine. Turbo is the current mod im looking at; as the VCT-2.6L  engine im building is getting the turbo setup i posted so the old built RB25DE needs a snail
    • New setup just needs a VCT enabled head and it will come on so much earlier. At least 500rpm of added response, if not more.
    • Wow, there's a user name I haven't seen for a while! Good to see you back @Sydneykid
    • Something to note, on an aftermarket BOV, it's quite possible to end up with the worst of both worlds, where on light throttle, there isn't enough force to open the BOV so you get small reversion and driveability issues, and with the venting to atmosphere, it dumps a lot of fuel on shifts. Realistically, dumping to atmosphere under power isn't a major driveability issues, compared to the issues of stalling from reversion. If you're getting up the throttle, then putting the clutch in, say on a shift up, but then don't release the clutch, yes, the engine can and will stall, but, just drive around it, and that's easy, let the clutch out in the next gear and the car rolling will keep it all running / going.who wants a hard hit of throttle and then to just let the motor idle anyway?   Main issue for driveability is blipping throttle and it wanting to stall, like when parking or trying to move in slow traffic.
