OS30GK Posted October 13, 2008 Share Posted October 13, 2008 no way is another payment coming out of pocket. thought funds were sent already to finalise so we wouldnt have to deal with another rise in payment...

Angus Smart Posted October 13, 2008 Author Share Posted October 13, 2008 lol im keen to know this too ^^Havent got mine yet but Thanks for all the work Andrew, in all seriousness, would you organise another GB after all this!?! as for the power ratings, it was actually torque rating, 1000ft pounds and 2000ft pounds. but i was sent hp this and then hp that. i think it changed when we went to the aussie distributor as James was always quoting torque ratings. (as i just copied and pasted) Well i dont plan to buy anything for a while now, since our dollar is up the shit. there is really only one thing that i might do which is a titanium exhaust (90mm trust cat back) and possibly a sump extension (tho i can get sump extensions rather cheap thru a fabricating friend) who wants me to collect rb26 sumps so he can stock them. he did the design himself. but its some what similar to how the hi octane one is. (welded in trap doors etc) without a cast item and with alloy. says if you happen to hit it the cast will crack. where the alloy will possibly dent or bend. i'm actually waiting at home now as i must have just missed him yesterday morning with the delivery!

Mr. Keets Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 Andrew 90mm Ti exhaust ay?..mmm if you wait on the dollar to regain some ground i'm in...Trust TiR? or do you have a cunning plan?

Angus Smart Posted October 14, 2008 Author Share Posted October 14, 2008 Andrew90mm Ti exhaust ay?..mmm if you wait on the dollar to regain some ground i'm in...Trust TiR? or do you have a cunning plan? yeah just a trust ti-r 90mm..i think they weigh less than the carbon shafts or maybe they were 15kg's i cant remember with the way i am thinking i should leave the current setup for now. and doing a sidepipe.. but it all comes down to my internal wastegates holding pressure (30psi) and turbo efficiency, if they are efficient and not holding boost i will go external and will want a new front pipe and the Trust catback.. but if they are all good, i will just keep the current setup and get a sidepipe made up..

Beer Baron Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 yeah I think the 1000ft/lb one is the go. no way you are going to put 2000ft/lb through a GTR driveline. go for the lightest one. and even better it's cheaper! though I guess this sterling advice comes a bit late for you chaps... glad to see you all got there in the end.
