thinking of pumping out a couple of supercharger kits for rb twincam engines. already made 1. 8-9 psi. switch on and off mad max style. made my r32 rb20 go like a rocket (dump 4th and it lights up 18 inch wheels) and confuses lots of people. fine on standard computer. just want to gauge interest before pricing.

Also, if you're using a Toyota supercharger, please make sure its a new one. Using second hand stuff in a kit is cool and all but not quite professional. Pretty backyardy.

Please advise on parts used and what exactly the mounting procedure is.

Note: to others reading, hears a disclaimer. DON'T BE A C*NT AND STEAL THIS DUDES IDEAS. WE WILL FIND YOU.

...supercharger kits for rb twincam engines...8-9 psi. switch on and off mad max style. made my r32 rb20 go like a rocket (dump 4th and it lights up 18 inch wheels)...

There is bending the truth.

Then there is lying.

Then there is speaking shit.

And then there is that statement.

And then there is you

Your obviously insecure about something.

built not bought..... pfffft. with a shopping list that big. you got something to prove??

ill try get sum pics tomorrow you scallywag

isn't built not bought referring to modifying a car yourself rather than buying one which has previously? meh superchargers, if they were any good they'd be being used on RB30's already.

They are. Youtube it.

Lol god people like you make me laugh. Typical response of a person that knows he is losing an argument, having to make it personal with attacks, typical brain function of a weak minded individual. I'm not going to bother arguing with you, i dont need to, because i know what is possible and what isn't. So ill just wait for you to post up your "RB supercharger kit" that runs 9psi and "lights up 18" tyres in 4th gear" and let the good people of SAU judge whether or not your speaking shit :P

Hooray for the NA section =\

sooooo...9psi on a standard NA computer, with the standard fuel reg injectors etc and makes enough grunt to smoke 4th gear....wait isnt it school holidays in some states already....

All it's going to be is an SC14 Toyota supercharger for around the $300-$600 mark with some custom brackets made up. It'll rob the car of some down low power and make up for it in the midrange and up top to about 140-160rwkw, if that. Nothing new. Hardly 4th gear tyre frying.

9PSi... 2.5L... Tyre frying in 4th... WITH a clutch dump...

Where am I going wrong? 14PSi turbo'd... 3.0L... Only shreds the tyres in 3rd... With the push of the throttle... Should I try a clutch dump in 4th?

Or are we talking you only chirped the tyres in 4th? Cause I can mention mine unsettles across the start finish line of OP GP in 4th... But that's just not fair...

maybe you weren't driving in pooring rain with bald tyres on a road where a car had just had it's sump plug come out.

all that saying "frying the tyres in 4th" says to me is that you either talk a lot of shit or really need to stop buying the absolute cheapest tyres on the market.

and there is no way a rb20 could fry the tyres in 4th on a stock ecu.

    • Surely somebody has one in VIC. Have you asked at any shops?  Is this the yearly inspection or did you get a canary?
    • This is where I share pain with you, @Duncan. The move to change so many cooling system pieces to plastic is a killer! Plastic end tanks and a few plastic hose flanges on my car's fail after so little time.  Curious about the need for a bigger rad, is that just for long sessions in the summer or because the car generally needs more cooling?
    • So, that is it! It is a pretty expensive process with the ATF costing 50-100 per 5 litres, and a mechanic will probably charge plenty because they don't want to do it. Still, considering how dirty my fluid was at 120,000klm I think it would be worth doing more like every 80,000 to keep the trans happy, they are very expensive to replace. The job is not that hard if you have the specialist tools so you can save a bit of money and do it yourself!
    • OK, onto filling. So I don't really have any pics, but will describe the process as best I can. The USDM workshop manual also covers it from TM-285 onwards. First, make sure the drain plug (17mm) is snug. Not too tight yet because it is coming off again. Note it does have a copper washer that you could replace or anneal (heat up with a blow torch) to seal nicely. Remove the fill plug, which has an inhex (I think it was 6mm but didn't check). Then, screw in the fill fitting, making sure it has a suitable o-ring (mine came without but I think it is meant to be supplied). It is important that you only screw it in hand tight. I didn't get a good pic of it, but the fill plug leads to a tube about 70mm long inside the transmission. This sets the factory level for fluid in the trans (above the join line for the pan!) and will take about 3l to fill. You then need to connect your fluid pump to the fitting via a hose, and pump in whatever amount of fluid you removed (maybe 3 litres, in my case 7 litres). If you put in more than 3l, it will spill out when you remove the fitting, so do quickly and with a drain pan underneath. Once you have pumped in the required amount of clean ATF, you start the engine and run it for 3 minutes to let the fluid circulate. Don't run it longer and if possible check the fluid temp is under 40oC (Ecutek shows Auto Trans Fluid temp now, or you could use an infrared temp gun on the bottom of the pan). The manual stresses the bit about fluid temperature because it expands when hot an might result in an underfil. So from here, the factory manual says to do the "spill and fill" again, and I did. That is, put an oil pan under the drain plug and undo it with a 17mm spanner, then watch your expensive fluid fall back out again, you should get about 3 litres.  Then, put the drain plug back in, pump 3 litres back in through the fill plug with the fitting and pump, disconnect the fill fitting and replace the fill plug, start the car and run for another 3 minutes (making sure the temp is still under 40oC). The manual then asks for a 3rd "spill and fill" just like above. I also did that and so had put 13l in by now.  This time they want you to keep the engine running and run the transmission through R and D (I hope the wheels are still off the ground!) for a while, and allow the trans temp to get to 40oC, then engine off. Finally, back under the car and undo the fill plug to let the overfill drain out; it will stop running when fluid is at the top of the levelling tube. According to the factory, that is job done! Post that, I reconnected the fill fitting and pumped in an extra 0.5l. AMS says 1.5l overfill is safe, but I started with less to see how it goes, I will add another 1.0 litres later if I'm still not happy with the hot shifts.
    • OK, so regardless of whether you did Step 1 - Spill Step 2 - Trans pan removal Step 3 - TCM removal we are on to the clean and refill. First, have a good look at the oil pan. While you might see dirty oil and some carbony build up (I did), what you don't want to see is any metal particles on the magnets, or sparkles in the oil (thankfully not). Give it all a good clean, particularly the magnets, and put the new gasket on if you have one (or, just cross your fingers) Replacement of the Valve body (if you removed it) is the "reverse of assembly". Thread the electrical socket back up through the trans case, hold the valve body up and put in the bolts you removed, with the correct lengths in the correct locations Torque for the bolts in 8Nm only so I hope you have that torque wrench handy (it feels really loose). Plug the output speed sensor back in and clip the wiring into the 2 clips, replace the spring clip on the TCM socket and plug it back into the car loom. For the pan, the workshop manual states the following order: Again, the torque is 8Nm only.
