If you were in Melbourne I could get it done for around $300-350 + $40 for machining the flywheel.

Around $250 thumbsup.gif

If you bring a flywheel and clutch with you, ready to be installed, I will do it for you for $250.

Im not a mechanic, but feel free to speak to Jez about if Im capable of or what not.

Am in Bankstown, just PM if your interested.

Yeah Canberra sucks price wise

But it makes up for things such as not many defects etc.

Birds and ARTZ we could always have said race in Canberra and at the same time do a 3 way......clutch change

Sorry, my hoist and workshop aren't exactly mobile lol.

Agree with Rolls, you won't find any cheaper than $250.

Birds come and get this part after clutch change. The turbo will be able to hold 20psi straight to 7000RPMs with it using a EBC. Should get around 280rwkws with extra 3psi of boost.

That part is $35 delivered. It's best working with the 14psi actuator and ebc. It will only work assume the cause of the drop is the strength of actuator. Will have no affect on retriction related boost drops.

Does that include the clutch or is that just fitting?

Love to man, but I can't run more than 16psi anywhere in the rev range at the moment...anything more and my motor starts pinging past what my tuner is comfortable with. So it'd be wasted on me cause I'm not even seeing 20psi in the mid range for it to drop off in the top end. It just runs 16psi all the way to red line.

Better off getting Kasko to try it as he is experiencing exactly what you're trying to fix. Once I convert to E-flex and can safely run 20psi I will look at doing it, if I have the dropping off issue.

Also, I don't have clutch issues, maybe you're confusing me with Kasko :/

For canberra, i think $500 is pretty competative. Does that include flywheel machine for the clutches which keep the stock flywheel?

I'd definently drive the 3.5hrs to sydney for $250 though.

Joined the hypergear club recently thought I'd share my story. After finding my previous highflow too laggy for my liking I went to stao and asked for response so he put together a turbo with SS1 compressor wheel.

Went to install it last weekend. When i finished fitting the lines and intake I spotted missing manifold studs. First and last. I went to tighten up the remainder in the hope i could still drive my car. Found 2 more broke and another seized up. fark! decided to rip everything off..

Called thread doctor but he was too busy, so i searched the internet for left hand drill bits and ezouts, couldn't find anything local (wanted it fast). wandered into a tool shop and found this:

An hour plus later....

got charged 120 for manifold gasket from nissan... crazy oh well needed it. $2.50 per stud wasn't too bad though

Anyway I've effectively changed turbo 3 times now. Getting real good at it lol. Hope that makes anyone struggling with their turbo install feel better.

Wonder how much the exhaust leak contributed to the lag and if i even needed to get my second highflow. Feels good so far anyhow. Not quite stock response still but heaps better than before. Would be interesting to compare to Bird's turbo since you have an actual SS1

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
