Noticed there's a Team Red Stage sticker on a white ford station wagon in the carpark at work. Wonder if that's the same person with the 33 4 door?

But given he hasn't noticed he's been spotted maybe not much chance he'll see this!

Although... There's something pretty white and shiny in there today. 500kw daily driver FTW!

The point of the 400+kw etc threads is it makes it easier for people to discussed things and look for what setups people are running rather than trolling through the massive thread of people putting a pfc in their standard car and running 200kw. It is also an easier place for discussion for common known hurdles around certain power levels etc.

They are actually very useful threads.

I get what the point of them is. Unfortunately I read more rubbish than good.

I'm well connected with multiple workshops that are going to give me much better factual information based on experience which is 100000000x more valuable than some of the shit I've read in there.

Each to their own. I dont believe most of the crap thats on here, nor do i take everything i get told by workshops as gospel. My opinion only. I dont expect anyone on here to believe what i write, for all they know i might be 13 and own a pushbike and nothing else, and have never worked on a car.

What works in/on one engine may not work on/in another. Trial and error is the only way you know what works and what doesnt. Just sucks its so expensive and time consuming. Power figures are just a number, you can make the dyno read whatever. As long as your happy with how it goes who gives a fk!

I've seen you plenty haha, I'm in the grey 32, saw you after the downshift meet as well.

But bummer to the defect.

    • Lower at the hubs. Funny I forgot to mention that part. Do this pull here I turned the camera off too soon but the graph shows a drop at the top and that was because the pipe from the turbo blew off. The tuner said we could’ve made possibly another 15 whp. He also added if I switched to ethanol we could up the boost some more as well. I was comfortable capping it at the most of 20 pounds. Turns out the turbo pipe just needed a new worm clamp. Got home replaced that then did a third gear pull from 3k to 7200 rpm and the power was great to the top. I just got an ecu mounting bracket from IEE that I need to try and get everything to fit well. It’s a PITA to get the harness and ecu fit properly behind that kick plate 
    • He means "as opposed to mechanical cable drive". Older cars (R32 for ex.) had cable drive. Later cars with essentially the same gearbox, ie R34 GT (NA RB25) used essentially the same box as the R32 GTSt, but instead of a cable drive, had an electronic speed sender plugged into the same hole in the box, running from the same little gear that would have run the cable. Some of the shittier later cars use a speed sender on the nose of the diff, or the ABS sensors.
    • Lower than engine, or lower than it should at the hubs? Either way, that is a nice power figure and I'm not surprised you say it rips now. What stopped you from turning it up any more? Injectors? Or did it just stop responding to boost?
    • Got my 34 gtt tuned last week. Car made 362 wheel horsepower at 19 psi. Turbo was the ATR43SS. Only other upgrades were haltech 2000 series. 650cc injectors, walbro 250, fmic. Pro hub dyno reads 6% lower than actual figure according to my tuner. Car is a real ripper now.  IMG_7261.mov
    • Hi everyone, I'm wondering if anyone in Melbourne (preferably West) has a non-S2 R34 front bar. If it's already off the car, even better!  Nothing too weird, I just need to get a cut-out of the hole that the front indicators clip into 🤣 (image attached for reference)   I've got a front bar from JSAI Aero, but those holes need to be cut myself, and I want to get it right so the indicators will clip securely. And my OEM bumper is a S2, so I have no reference. So looking for a member who might be able to spare me a few minutes to make a cardboard cut-out using your front bar.
