:laugh: oh good lol

just a question, im thinking of changing the rear housing to a internal gated, with a actuator, and ive been quoted $1000 just to change the rear lol, i was like wtf.. might as well go highmount and its gonna cost me the same thing.

what you reocken?

Well if you go highmount you will need a new manifold(a good one is 1k+) a wastegate($500) new lines and a new dump pipe.

You will need a new dump pipe anyway internal or external. Going external will cost you more but will be a benefit if you plan to go bigger in the future.

Ill get some prices on an internal housing for you.

do wet the wrap as you wrap it.

do not smear silicone on it.

do paint over it with high temp paint if you wish but since you have the black stuff don't bother.

do wear gloves and mask/googles

do not scratch your balls, or pick your bum or rub your eyes or you will end up in a nasty, itchy hell.

Make sure you wash your hands before you eat very thoroughly! Been there, done that, itchy as hell mouth for days... hard to scratch in there as well :blink:

Same as yours mate :P But im already thinking about going to a GT3082. See how we go with this one first.

I vote, very very very hard - that you DO NOT go GT3082R. Max out the GT3076R first, you may be surprised at what they can do. If its not enough, don't mess about with the GT3082R - go to the GT3582R :banana:

I wet wraped mine gets a bit messy with water all over your hand while you try to wrap the man.

Can say ive been there with fiberglass was ripping the interior out of my GT pulling the roof lining off with no carpet in it and the bits of fiberglass on the floor pan and an itcy arse for days lol

Would like to see if he did scratch his nut would be a funny site to see lol

Yes its on the stand in my garage :) The blue is really going to look good against the white engine bay.

I have installed the ARP manifold bolts and trial fitted the manifold and turbo. Now im off to bed, i have alot of running around to do tomorow :D

Very few of them are, including the ones with "made in the usa" on the box. :D

My Pauter rods were made in the California factory ~5 years ago. Price was not much more than Asian manufactured options.

To my knowledge they still make every order to customers' specs at the same factory including titanium alloy if you can afford them (~US$1,400 per rod last time I checked).

    • Hi everyone, I've been wrestling with this for a while now and have been trying to find out the cause. For context, the turbos used are Garrett 2860 -5s, the BOV is a BNR32 HKS SSQV IV kit, the car is currently tuned to ~470 whp on 17.5 psi. The car drives normally, pulls well when it doesn't happen, and I can replicate it fairly easily. It does not sound like turbo shuffle or flutter. The engine has only a thousand or so miles and has had this behavior since it was completed. After my engine was built for my R32 GTR, I noticed that the car now sometimes makes an air discharge sound on what appears to be positive boost pressure that sounds really similar to a BOV. I had thought that it was a BOV issue but even when replacing it with a brand new unit, the sound persisted. It seems like it's coming from the passenger side but I may be mistaken. The closest scenario I could find was this post here https://www.gtr.co.uk/threads/maybe-a-boost-leak-opinions.147955/https://www.gtr.co.uk/threads/maybe-a-boost-leak-opinions.147955/ started by @yakshii and it sounds very similar. As in, at partial throttle once I reach positive boost I begin to hear the same psh psh psh psh psh sound like air is leaking somewhere when I keep the throttle in the same position. It most commonly happens in 4th gear at around 3-3.5k RPM and 5th gear around 2.5-3k RPM, which seems to coincide with normal positive boost thresholds. It might be similar to what @Austrian GTR mentioned about his own HKS SSQV. Notable difference would be that when he applies more throttle when it happens, it stops. In my scenario if I apply more throttle during this repeated psh psh psh sound, the cadence of the sound gets faster and louder rather than stopping. If I lift off slightly and apply throttle again, it will normally stop and pull without issue. I've checked all rubber couplers to ensure that they are tight, but have not gotten the opportunity to properly do a pressurized boost leak test. If anyone has had similar experiences or thoughts on what might be the cause, I'd be very keen to hear them. I also have a video of it happening from inside the cabin, if that would make it easier to understand: https://youtu.be/2zqZXcx8jbA
    • I'd want at least $40K for mine, but thats easy to say cos I'm not selling anyway.
    • That's incorrect. We have 4 seasons, consisting of pre winter, winter, post winter and a small glimpse of hope!
