Yer mate, i can't run anymore boost then that atm cause im already running lean!

nasty

my old man has got that car; bought mr.pickles (auctions) personal car only 4000kms on the clock

pristine condition, had it over a yr now. TT powah!

nice car thats for sure, his retirement dream :)

Everything from towing a very large caravan to driving on the moon!

man, youd wanna have a good car to be out there, i find it bad enough driving my company car up

the freeway on a hot day :)

Not wrong Craig.

The locals were telling us that they don't bother recording temperatures that exceed 50 deg but temps in the mid 50's are quite common.....whew, I'm thirsty just thinking about it again!

All Skylines would die up there unfortunately.....and some 4WD's too, lol.

Nothing grows with that heat, not even weeds.

u might be able to change the springs inside the wastegate so u can run more boost, when i bought my turbosmart gate it came with 4 springs

running your gt3076 with the .7 compressor housing on your low mount manifold might have clearance problems with your engine mount

when i mounted my gt35 on my 6boost low mount manifold i had to have the engine mount machined down a bit to make it clear

whos gonna be at drift prac next saturday? as in, sliding..... not sitting on the stand with a hard on wishing

your car was finished.

I might actually go and enter. It's been awhile since I entered or even gone to watch.

Those manifolds were sold with in the HKS GT3037 kits which is the HKS version of a the GT3076 so he shouldn't have any trouble. you can see on the front 3 runners they curve up before the collector which allows for large compressor housing to clear.

EDIT!!

LOL that's not what you were saying though, the kits were bolt on items though so there shouldn't have to be any mount modification needed, from what i understand they actually move the turbo forward slightly from the factory position.

Your apology is accepted and I appreciate that it was done publicly rather than by PM.

IMHO, it takes a real man to come out in public and apologize, so thanks.......water under the bridge now. :P

I'm sorry you're bold Pete :P Apology accepted? :teehee:

I know that of lot of people on here have arguments with their wives and girlfriends over the amount of time and $ spent on 'that bloody car'.

Valentines Day is approaching so I thought that I'd put forward this T-shirt as a gift suggestion:

    • neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.
    • Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock. 
    • Yeah my thoughts are the same, a well thought out WMI setup, would be slightly ahead of just straight E85 and you're also chemically intercooling the charged air, dropping it even further. This is why you need to add so much more fuel as soon as you spray. I remember someone taking me through their set up before (Dennis, has a R33, lives around Cabramatta - no idea if he's still around on this forum). He would target AFR 10:1 on 98, then as WMI ramped on, AFR would lean back up to 11:1. Amazingly, he did this all through his PowerFC, a relay to cut power to his EBC solenoid if there was not enough line pressure on his WMI kit. And of course, if there wasn't any boost made above gate pressure, you wouldn't be accessing the load cells with heaps of timing for WMI. One downside to that rudimentary setup, once the WMI came on, the EBC would unleash the dragon, and of course all the timing. Tyres would fry lol.
