Hey Craig, do you still have any spare turbo's to suit RB20? I think my ceffy needs a new one, it makes one hell of a bad scream on anymore than 10psi :banana:
Will a RB25 turbo fit? I have the one off my car...not sure if i will need to keep it in-case i get defected.

they sure do and a RB25 one is better as the RB20 can run more boost through it before the ceramic wheel shatters

Na sorry Chad, they both sold...

but do what the others said, 25 turbs on a 20 is a good upgrade.

hey that reminds me, i gotta come pick up that fuel pump, unless you will be needing it for the ceffy now?

I'll probably just use the RB20 turbo that i have in my shed for now then go for something with a steel wheel later on.

I'll try have a look and see what sort of pump is in the ceffy 2moro and if its only got a stocker then i'll probably need to chuck in the 040.

How much do you want for it, i need a standard RB25 turbo to get the 25>180sx conversion engineered. It one of the last parts i need.

Chad i ended up with that TD06-17c but it's too laggy for a RB20. You wouldn't be seeing full boost until 4500+ RPM but it will support up to 275kw.

I dont exactly want to sell it as i MAY need it to clear a defect if i get done, and i don't want to go hunting for one. As i am not using it, i am willing to lend for awhile.

Any idea what kind of power the Cef is making Chad?

Eh, bought myself a weekend project. Silly thing is that this car is getting done quicker than my driven car. Had a base idea of an all white 32 gtr, with some white rims, which i love.

Ended up looking like this as of 20 minutes ago.

Just wanted to get a general opinion from you guys.

So I've been driving manual for well over a year now. I have been told different stories on what gear to use while cruising down the road at 60 (or 66 :) ) km/h. I've generally gone to fifth gear as I've heard that it saves petrol, but I've heard other stories telling me that it's not so good for the engine. What's the general concensus out there?

Was walking down hindley around 3am this morning. I see the undercovers 4wd, cops jump out to help with this fight. One guy who was involved in the fight runs off towards me and 5 cops chase after him down hindley. My mate kicks the guy in the leg, slows him down abit, cops still chasing him, tackle him from behind and the guy goes straight to the ground. Everyone cheers.

Was fun to watch this guy get decked.

Thats my exciting night :)

Why? I have an 040 ready to go in.

oh npz :geek::)

so long as the engine is not laboring it shouldn't do damage but as for saving you fuel that's an urban myth. i used to do the same but don't any more

if you're not labouring it, use 5th

ive gone back to that in my fourby, gets me an extra 100km out of a tank easy just doing that

Not quite sure how you came to that conclusion, 5th gear at 60 is using fewer revs then 4th gear at 60 hance lower revs = less fuel used

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
