What "few" other goodies??

A GT35 is too big for a 2.2ltrs far as i see it, far too big... GT35 is 350rwkw style, 30+ psi easily... on a 2.2 with a head that flows like a 2" exhaust :)

So you'll run into all sorts of drama's there.

Even a 3037 is too be, get a 2835 or similar IMO. With decent tyres and a good driver 11's shouldnt be a problem

ive had a look at the 2835 but its not rated at that much more ps than the turbo in there at the moment.. generaly im aiming for 400rwhp and if it breaks 11's it would b nice. few other goodies meaning just off the top of my head forgies, cams, powerfc, fuel pump, injectors, head gasket.. i dont mind abit of lag but i dont want sumthing hitting full boost at 6k anything around 4 - 4.5 is fine by me

How much power are you getting from the AX53B70 again? Was around 220rwkw yeah? If so that sounds alittle low especially with mods you have like cams and headwork and a 2.2L...i think guys have pushed numbers close to the mid 200s...i could be wrong though...but if thats true...then that sounds like there are definitlely issues or restrictions in your system that should be sorted out...

I had a look at your dyno graph and you're making less power with the same response as my 2535...the AX53B70 is rated higher than the 2535...plus you have headwork and a 2.2L...it probably shows that theres a fair bit more to be had from your setup...

If you do want to upgrade though...i think a 2835 or maybe a td06 with 8cm housing would be the go for around 250+ rwkw...i'm starting a hybrid rb22 build too and might consider a turbo upgrade too at the same time as my 2535 might be getting alittle tired...and if so i'll probably go with the 2835...

IMO a GT3071 with a .63 ex housing will see very close to 300rwkw, with the best response you can hope for.

I think your right mate.

This is the option I would be going for if I was chasing 300rwkw on an RB22. The 2.2l isn't going to have that much exhaust flow that it will cause a restriction and limit power with a 0.63 a/r rear housing, and this should still be pretty responsive.

limpus the tune was done in perth by a fairly known tuner and they said that there pulled as much out of it as they could, the other other way im going to make more power is to get a bigger turbo.. i mite go 2 another tuner and see wot they have to say because im pretty certain that it can get 320 - 330rwhp... ad4m ive spoken to u abit on antilag, that GT3076R murrayis is talking about u rkn that would suit my engine? murrayis what housing is the turbo?

GT3076R would be fine man!

not to long ago a dude in perth had his tuned running that turb on a std rb20 with hks cams,plazmaman plenum,6boost mani, turbo smart 48mm gate and all the usual supporting mods and went 358rwhp@20psi... and the way it made the power was so linear and smooth, if i didnt already have the 3040 it definatly would have been my pick!

i cant remember for the life of me what rear housing it was but if you need to know more shoot r32rookie on antilag a pm.

      After market rear camber arm adjustment

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Wheel alignment immediately. Not "when I get around to it". And further to what Duncan said - you cannot just put camber arms on and shorten them. You will introduce bump steer far in excess of what the car had with stock arms. You need adjustable tension arms and they need to be shortened also. The simplest approach is to shorten them the same % as the stock ones. This will not be correct or optimal, but it will be better than any other guess. The correct way to set the lengths of both arms is to use a properly built/set up bump steer gauge and trial and error the adjustments until you hit the camber you need and want and have minimum bump steer in the range of motion that the wheel is expected to travel. And what Duncan said about toe is also very true. And you cannot change the camber arm without also affecting toe. So when you have adjustable arms on the back of a Skyline, the car either needs to go to a talented wheel aligner (not your local tyre shop dropout), or you need to be able to do this stuff yourself at home. Guess which approach I have taken? I have built my own gear for camber, toe and bump steer measurement and I do all this on the flattest bit of concrete I have, with some shims under the tyres on one side to level the car.

      R33 Fuel Pump & Brakes after alarm swap

      By Jarsky · Posted

      Thought I would get some advice from others on this situation.    Relevant info: R33 GTS25t Link G4x ECU Walbro 255LPH w/ OEM FP Relay (No relay mod) Scenario: I accidentally messed up my old AVS S5 (rev.1) at the start of the year and the cars been immobilised. Also the siren BBU has completely failed; so I decided to upgrade it.  I got a newer AVS S5 (rev.2?) installed on Friday. The guy removed the old one and its immobilisers. Tried to start it; the car cranks but doesnt start.  The new one was installed and all the alarm functions seem to be working as they should; still wouldn't start Went to bed; got up on Friday morning and decided to have a look into the no start problem. Found the car completely dead.  Charged the battery; plugged it back in and found the brake lights were stuck on.  Unplugging the brake pedal switch the lights turn off. Plug it back in and theyre stuck on again. I tested the switch (continuity test and resistance); all looks good (0-1kohm).  On talking to AVS; found its because of the rubber stopper on the brake pedal; sure enough the middle of it is missing so have ordered a new one. One of those wear items; which was confusing what was going on However when I try unplugging the STOP Light fuses (under the dash and under the hood) the brake light still stays on. Should those fuses not cut the brake light circuit?  I then checked the ECU; FP Speed Error.  Testing the pump again; I can hear the relay clicking every time I switch it to ON. I unplugged the pump and put the multimeter across the plug. No continuity; im seeing 0.6V (ECU signal?) and when it switches the relay I think its like 20mA or 200mA). Not seeing 12.4V / 7-9A. As far as I know; the Fuel Pump was wired through one of the immobiliser relays on the old alarm.  He pulled some thick gauged harness out with the old alarm wiring; which looks to me like it was to bridge connections into the immobilisers? Before it got immobilised it was running just fine.  Im at a loss to why the FP is getting no voltage; I thought maybe the FP was faulty (even though I havent even done 50km on the new pump) but no voltage at the harness plug.  Questions: Could it be he didnt reconnect the fuel pump when testing it after the old alarm removal (before installing the new alarm)?  Is this a case of bridging to the brake lights instead of the fuel pump circuit? It's a bit beyond me as I dont do a lot with electrical; so have tried my best to diagnose what I think seems to make sense.  Seeking advice if theres for sure an issue with the alarm install to get him back here; or if I do infact, need an auto electrician to diagnose it.

      Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber

      I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option

      You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
