For about $50 you could get a nice smallish intercooler to plumb into it. I couldn't stand running any forced induction without an intercooler. :P

i would for the awesomeness ... but its not the best idea

cos fuel vapor mixes from the carby into the induction system, one lil carby backfire could blow the front of the rolla a new a$$

But thats more of a concern for a suck-thru system. Your blow-thru system could take the intercooler between the turbo and carby. :P

picked up those drift gauges from vince this arvo (boost, water temp and oil pressure) pretty keen to get em in the rolla.

they are pretty sexy n im tempted to put em in the 32 lol.

only reason i dont think i will is i currently have boost, water temp and oil temp... im not heaps keen on replacing my oil temp gauge with oil pressure.

wish me luck butchering the dash to get the gauges in lol

Doesn't happen on blowthrough setups, 10yrs ago i had the same setup on a ke10

before going efi, the biggest problem you have with the stupid things is carby sealing

on hi-boost(16+psi), mine use to blow out carby gaskets all the time.

cheers

it can happen, just far less likely than it is with draw through.. while the carby is backfiring I'm not even going to consider it lol.

I blew carb gaskets on the old carb that was only at 8psi too. the weber I have now should handle the 10psi I plan to run nicely

I still have a custom fab plenum lying around for an L16, L18 or L20 motor! :thumbsup:

Might find a nice tidy auto 120Y, drop in an L20, Mahl pistons and Waggot cam and supercharge the dam thing with EFI. :)

If you drop in an L16...using stanza struts as a brake upgrade, it will be a legal conversion... :sick: ...then blow it.....i miss my datto's....had 4 different ones back in the day

I've had a total of 6 or 7 dattos over the years. Some of the most easy modded and fun cars ever. Parts interchangability is huge.

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
