very nice.

Is the HKS GTRS direct bolt-on to the dump? When does full boost come in?

Also where you get those steel hoses for the catchcan

imo the airpod isnt in the best place. One bad downpour and its gonna be soaked.

yeah that was the best thing about the turbo. direct bolt up with an rb20-rb25 rear flange.

it comes on boost at about 3000rpm very responsive and skids 1st 2nd 3rd into 4th . full boost at about 5500 6500 rpm and pulls into the red , kicks like a horse lol.

i got the steel hoses from bunnings of all places in the plumbing department. im a plumber and they are the exact same hoses that autobarn and enzo fitting stock. and they look great.

cost like $15 each.

i only run the pod in hot weather when theres no chance of rain .

glad you like it dude .

hmmm you are tempting me to swap to gtrs with those power gains.

How much did it set you back? Im sure its more than capable of running past 16psi?

Get us a better photo of the hoses, im thinking of replacing mine haha

when i got the car it came with the turbo just wasnt installed. iv research the kit tho i think its work about $2500 but im sure you can do better on eba or reco. even research the power out put of the RS kit and go to a turbo sales and get the lesser expensive brand thats rated the same just a thought.

if you do get an RS , you can run more then 16psi. i run 18 round town with 20 high boost electric duel solinoid.

heres a couple of pics of the lines .

You loose your liscence so then you spend the next 6 months making it quicker LMAO that is gold!

All jokes aside nice looking car, with decent mods. Its going to be hard to behave now lol

i see nothing wrong with what he has done

i currently have no licence for 6 months and have 30grand worth of parts going onto my car in the next few weeks lol

Great build exact same scenario with me lost mine for a year and went nuts changing things will have my license back in a month, gota make the most of losing your license now that I look at the car losing my license seemed worth it ahahah

GT35's aren't laggy.... maybe on a 2lt but they scream on a 2.5 :P

Yes they are... even the GT30 are laggy. You realise when you go back to stocker just how laggy they really are. Even hiflow is laggy but much better compare to GT's i had.

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
