ok, so i have a hks2535..

do i keep on adjusting my boost via the adjustable actuator (will annoy me after a while) - i know its better to keep the wategate shut for as long as possible yada yada

or

lower actuator to lowest + install the turbo tech i got sitting here

or

lower actuator to lowest + be a wanker and have a cool hi/low switch for daily driving then 'spirited' (as u sau gents call it) driving?

winter is approaching, dont think i need 18psi to do wat i do, rather keep it low and give the thing a easier workload for a bit.

i already have all the above parts next to me, i just started my apprenticeship so things like profec b are not an option right now as id rather make-do with the above suggestions...

any ideas?

thats the thing, sick of feathering the throttle....

:thumbsup:

just dont mash it to the floor all the time.

I ran 24psi/350rwkw for ages, never really had a problem or needed to turn the boost down.

Even daily driving @ 270rwkw/17psi, 65-75% throttle = no problem easily.

Work with what you have...

Just use the turbotech to raise your boost to the desired level while using the adjustable actuator to control spiking or increase response...

I run the exact same setup with the same turbo on my rb20...works a treat...

      This sounds like someone who would have owned an R33 in their past... It's okay, I'm 100% picking up what you're putting down Mark.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Just back on what was raised about jacking off the the tow/tie down point on the front of cars. I've used it plenty. I've also watched it on a car where you could see it move the front end of the car. It was like the front end/whole car being tweaked and twisted a bit. I will say, I struggle to find good jacking points on MOST cars. The ones that have good points, I then normally struggle to find a jack tall enough to make the car change height!   One of my go to points for either the jack, or the axel stands though, is either a suspension pickup point, OR a subframe to chassis major bolting point. I actually think its the subframe on my R33 that has a bit of a bend in it, from being jacked in the middle too. However, it could have been one of my many other cars I've had over the years! Or it could also be the from me jacking it up, and the fact the top of the front radiator support isn't there, so it can allow the front of the car to move and bend etc.

      My apologies. I forgot we were talking about weird beard M series stuff. Had been talking elsewhere with someone about an R33 with similar subject and got confused.

      Nope, I don't like the look of ND RF, or any ND really, I don't like their faces or arses, why, because of their "modern" lines, the NC, whilst "modernish" has a more rounded shape that I like Well, that's how my overly judgemental eyes see it anyway
