Hi All I have been a member on here since 07 but never got around to posting due to the fact some drunking idiot hit my car and road it off, hense the Blue Phantom R33. She was a fully rebuilt strocked forged engine running low mount gt35r 700hp turbo all the other fruit. I keep it looking as legal as I could. I had her running betwwen 240-260rwkw on 12-14pb. I needed bigger injectors as everything else was set up. Luckly i got it back off the insurance company and pulled it all apart whilst crying( well almost ) at the same time. I still have the engine and gearbox and heaps of parts. I was to sad to even sell them, couldn't say goodbye. It took me 3yrs to buy something else again worthy of my happiness. I have owned a s13 Silvia, R32 n R33gtst's and now i own an R34gtt which is auto. I paid 9k for it. Yes it's a coupe. I have the gearbox n master/slave/pedals etc so it will be a manual soon. Not sure what I'm going to do with the Blue Phantom RB25 yet. I have a fair amount of parts to sell including a spare r33s2 gearbox. So look out for my post. After all the shit with the accident n time away it's f**king awesome to be driving a Skyline again. Cheers

      Chris' Toyota Mark ii JZX110

      I'm a fan of the JZX110, and the Aristo. Big cruiser cars, and with the factory cars, super comfortable and feel like you're driving an armchair! And the JZ motors are a pretty nice engine too, especially with some basic mods.   The import process, and the need to be able to trust people, and the fact there's so many scammers around is what ever puts me off wanting to go through that ordeal!

      I don't care for these at all, but at least the underside looks straight and not rusty. A good basis for a long life. Many cars from Japan have been lifted with forklifts and f**ked almost irrepairably.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Yes, but it's not dumb or dodgy. You can build a perfectly good boost controller from a pressure reg, a relief valve (looks same same as a reg if all from Norgren or SMC, for example) and a check valve. I ran one for years. Only superceded with  EBC because I could get one for cheaps and wanted finer control.   THis mod is certainly not a sketchy boost mod, provided the boost is kept below the "spin to death" threshold of the turbos.

      With ordering the belt, you're doing water pump and the idler and tensioner at the same time too yes?

      This is just a dumb way of keeping the wastegate closed to make more boost. Undo it and either follow the factory setup or redo it properly. Manual boost controllers just use a spring preload to determine when to close in response to boost pressure so it no longer vents to atmosphere.
