I'm a van... I'm a van... suck my diiiiiiiiiiiick... I'm a van.

:rant:

I was just saying...

Don't worry :D

I know your cars a wingless.

BMW make vans..?

hey thanks scotty

how many pages is it

the one im looking for should be 150+ pages

its 204 pages and when you scroll to page 4 it says modification notice: GTR model has been introduced, i went through it a bit and it has the whole engine diagram and stuff like that.

yeah?

link me so i can see.... major cbf to look for myself atm :rofl:

i think you should do it right and go defi, it will go well with your car and you wont have these fake defi ones and think damn i wish i waited a bit longer and just got defi's.

I couldn't spend the money on defis.. just a gauge really they are so expensive.. I got cheap mechanical boost gauge and works fine.. hits 10PSI and stops like the car should

thats fair enough, im the opposite when i see something i want ill save up and get it i wont settle for second best, i like to buy the best when i can.

Also is that all that your gtr is running on 10psi?

yeh mate 10-11 psi AFAIK there is a 10 psi restrictor in it which is indicated by a yellow band on one of the 'boost tubes' (not sure what they are actually called >_<)

if i had a 34 gtr then might be a different story with gauges though :D , i would spend money on accessories depending on how much the car is worth in the first place i guess.. my general rule is to spend half the cars value doing it up.. IE if you buy a 10k GTST then spend like 5k max on mods.. or else your just throwing money away just my 2cents.

like my brother got his GTST for like 14k.. and has spent like 14k on it over the last few years on things like rims performance mods etc.. and now his kicking himself he didn't just buy a GTR.

dont need gauges for r34 gtr, i got the screen :O

thats a good rule to go by with mods too.

i didnt think you could ever find a gtr still with the boost restrictor in lol. mine was removed before i got it and it runs 1 bar and sometimes peaks a bit higher which im assuming is normal.

i think you should do it right and go defi, it will go well with your car and you wont have these fake defi ones and think damn i wish i waited a bit longer and just got defi's.

Yeah i probably will go defi

want a boost gauge and oil pressure too

pics when i find my cam cable

well hurry the fuck up then

10psi? lol try 20 in the evo >_<

yeh get some decent pics up, yesterday was good weather !

going to get my mate to take some good ones soon, when we both have free time

also in other news my NACA carbon vent came in today, just too late getting home to get it from post office :D

I think I'm queen of breaking that rule. Over $80,000 on a car that cost me $10,000. But I've had it for a long time.

    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm. 
    • Wouldn’t touch par if they gave it to me. You need to ask how much power you’re looking to make and then add about 50% to it because that’s what you’ll end up making  The factory box says no more at about 350kw or so, the upgraded synchro boxes won’t handle much over 500kw for long and at that point you’re looking at an auto or dog engagement manual,  once you’ve gone dog engagement you may as well go sequential, they cost a little bit more but it’s worth it  also while you’re at it you should upgrade the transfer case with 10 friction plates
