High mounts are illegal here right?

There's a wine red R33 on here for sale - with a high mount.

Can it be legal if it is engineered or something?

Sorry about the noobness, gotta learn...

Ya high mounts are illegal... just like low-mount non-stock turbo's are. It affects emissions.

But if it's a drag car... who cares?

I don't know any that are getting around Adelaide... but there's plenty of them interstate! No one bothers here due to no drag strip and most high mount setups are simply too laggy for the street (eg. T04z's) unless you don't mind having the turbo hit boost at 5000rpm.

youll have to go interstate for that, try the forced induction section. what exactly are you using it for, you would probably require different setups for all out drag vs all out track.

You need to speak to the right people Turbz 13

We have between ourselves and our immediate customers 1 x Twin Trust T67 GTR, 1 x Twin Trust TD06 GTR, 1 x Garrett TO4Z GTR, 1 x HKS T51 GTR, and the list goes on....and on. There are plenty out there, but you more than likely wont find them playing "Look at me!" on forums :rofl:

Pick a professional GTR proven workshop with real runs on the board, ensure you have an adequate budget, and go speak to them :laugh:

      We have a huge update coming in the next few months, version 5 of Invision will be released. I'm holding off any changes until after this change as I'm not sure what features will be removed or introduced.

      Yeah, plenty of air flow, there is a dedicated path that feeds the air in to the OEM intake tube behind the bumper As for a "tangible effect", maybe, but getting the pod/intake air out of the hot engine bay is worth it psychologically to me, even if it gives no performance difference, so the tangible effect in my Lizard brain saysss yessss  In the end, to me a tangible effect isn't always about performance, sometimes it a sound or a look, or even a...... feeling  Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga

      yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching

      Replacing turbo water line - any recommendations or advice?

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
