yeah man it sucks but the police are no involved so hopefully they get the f**ker. So looks like I wont be doing the 42r setup on the car as the manifold and gate where the last things in needed. Looking at putting standard twins on the car now to get it going :/

natett: just means more money that I now have to find to fork out. Ill see what happens im in no rush atm as I was looking at getting the car up and running by chrissy. I was looking at buy a 6boost mani and gate off another forum member but after what ive just been through I dont think I could waste that much money again :laugh:

The Quick spool valve goes between the turbo and manifold.

A valve closes on side of the manifold so the turbo spools up quicker, once boost gets into positive pressure the valve opens allowing full potential of the turbo.

Basically you can make 800rwhp and have it on full boost by 4000rpm :(

a lot of the supra guys in the US have used them. and the mega dollar supra build on here has 2.

they seem to show some impressive gains through the mid range however there isnt much info on them being used daily etc

when i go 3.4 ill be using one but thats another 12 months away haha

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
