well

sounds stupid i know, BUT its true (in my case)

Normally i average 200-250Km a tank

well, after i put this new to4e turbo on....i got 280KM to a half of a tank...

ao thats over 500KM to a tank if i calculate it correctly

ill do a test since i have to fill it up anwyays and i will have a week before i get a tune.

more on that later

yeah, im curious to see gas mileage between rough tune and after Rom tune with more fuel delivery parts installed.

im hoping 450+ KM a tank...if i can get 300 id be happy

this 250km a tank is killing me

its huge

i had to grind part of the compressor housing to fit it on the stock manifold (stainless had a huge ass crack so i threw it away)

its a t04E size compressor

50 trim

i get 10psi at 4k rpm

im imagining 1 bar at 4300-4500rpm

when i get home i will throw up a picture of it next to a stock turbo for comparrison

What did you do, run it on 2 cylinders only? :)

Whats that knocking noise I hear? :(

lol

nah

AFs are in the low 13s accross the board

i had liek 2 horus to tune it on the highway.

and nah, i drive my car like a bat out of hell.

thats why i have to maintain it all the damn time.

im never out of boost normally

Should have gone Autech Grant. 650hp, 400kms a tank.

well that makes no sense to me .. hopefully someone will tell is what the go is

same here, thats why i was like WTF

so far 67 kms of hard city driving and it is still at hte full mark.

Yep, big turbo would be to blaim, when you're cruising along on the highway or whatever it is making less boost and the ECU runs is leaner.

It was the same for me with my old R31 that a HT-18 on it. Most the time was off boost, so fuel efficiency was awesome. As soon as you get up, you can just about watch the fuel needle dropping! A friend of mine with an R32 also has similar affects.

    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
