That one I told you about in Japan is still for sale

But cant help you out with the requested money tree :cheers:

Damn, and I thought everything was coming together.. I was brewing up a storm after lunch and I thought I\'d have some wicked manure for the money tree.

I'm thinking this 68HTA onto GT28 concept might be exactly what I'm after. My motor is a little knock limited and doesnt like lots of boost, Mark did say that this compressor is aimed at the production type guys with limitations.. Especially the impreza boys who struggle above 17psi. That might suit me a lot.

Im thinking that the GT28 might turn the HTA a little quicker than a TD05H will, and get some more shaft speed where I need it. That will probably see me cap out a little earlier than the compressor is capable of doing but I am honestly not chasing 300kw.. If I could get a flat out 240 at a reasonable PR I would be very happy.. Mark sounds confident and as always Stao is willing to do a smashing price on the mashine work.

Need to sleep on it and bite the bullet by friday at the latest.

Hmm how much for the FF? one of the only 20's not to nose over up top was your getup with the old cam timing, i reckon this manifold was the key.... im looking for a c33 laurel to piece together atm... rb20 with l2 on cane sugar of course.

Looks like I cannot PM you.... Honestly I'm sure we can work out a deal where it costs us both nothing ;)

But it could be a few months whilst I collect parts which I have thrown out / lost / sold etc, get new piping and a GTR BOV. If you aren't in a hurry you're on!

I stumbled across an RB20 inlet manifold converted to FF item. Something like this should help with your lack of torque mid range yet also shorten piping by a whole heap.

If I was going to do anything to the inlet I would be interested in just modding the std inlet with a wider twin throttle body off an L98 or LT1

But I dont think I have ever read anyting about the std throttle being a restriction so not sure of there is anything to gain from going to smaller twins to try and sharpen throttle response and flow to the plenum

yeah bad idea, the distribution gets all screwy, too much cylinder triming needed to even out the fuelling.

found this mild steel top mount manifold. i know the SS manifolds tend to crack and warp from heat and weight. i was wondering if these would be any better as they are mild steel and a cheaper option than a 6 boost

Read the last few pages and the below link. We have been discussing those exact manifolds.

Ebay steampipe manifold thread

I think the general verdict is they are worth their money.

yeah sorry i hadnt been on here a while and just after i posted it i saw the thread sorry guys ignore it

and yeah i was going to stick to the td06 and stay stock mani for the cost reasons but for the money on one of those manifolds i think id rather go the t67

Being brutally honest I would go one of those manifolds regardless of the option, but thats just me.

Pick the outcome you want, but id say use one of those manifolds for sure.

thought id post the progress of my 10cm sl2 20g. Getting there slowly. mucked around with the water lines today. Just need a fitting for oil feed to block, finish intake and cooler pipeing then i can send it of to get a dump made. Soo exited hopeing for 300+ atw on E85 with killer response.

Whilst the gate looks great mounted there im worried it will crack eventually. Isnt that the weak point where the manifolds crack without cutting a 2 inch hole?

I think you are well on your way to the 300 club. :thumbsup:

hmm im abit worried about the manifold long term also. Ive had the pipe and gate flange glowing red with the standard turbo afew times, no cracks yet. fingers crossed it lasts longer than the motor will haha

    • This sounds like a perfect excuse to install a Haltech R3.
    • I do believe from context he is talking about a S0/S1 R33 RB25 with associated ECU and Wiring for that, and a manual gearbox into a R34 N/A Auto. I don't have the knowledge of all the pinouts and such but my gut feeling from doing my own conversion is to use as much of the R33 stuff that you can. The "car" wiring is quite seperate from the "Engine" wiring when all things are considered. The only things to truly consider 99% of the time is the cluster, reverse lights and potentially disabling the 'not in P/N' immobilizer circuit.
    • A realistic expectattion of how long it has to last also comes down to.... when do you think you will be banned from registering and driving old petrol powered shitters? It's 27 years since that thing was built. It probably rusted out 15 years ago. It was probably repaired and looked OK for another 10. If you do a similarish bodge job now, or perhaps slightly better with some actual rust conversion and glassing, then.... get another 10-15 years out of it, after which you'll only be permitted by the CCP to drive electric cars manufactured in their Shenzen zone anyway. 
    • Let me assume that the concern over a manual ECU is that the NeoDET that you have was an auto and has an auto ECU. That ECU will not be a problem, but you WILL have to Nistune it. And you would have to Nistune it even if you had a manual ECU, because the turbo ECUs will shit the bed if they do not have all the things that they were told they have to have, to be happy. The big one being the TCS CU, which you won't have in your car. Anyway, with an auto ECU (which I have running my originally auto NeoDET in an R32) Nistune allows you to put in a Stagea image which doesn't panic about the absent TCS, and allows you to override a whle bunch of other annoyances that would otherwise see the check engine light on 100% of the time. Also, you can't wind up the power very far on the stock NeoDET ECUs without Nistune, because the boost sensor gets in the way. Nistune allows you to push that problem much further up the dial. Do you even have the boost sensor with the engine? Without it, you are SOL and will need an aftermarket ECU (or to find a sensor somewhere, god knows where). I can't tell you what the wiring loom differences are in a 34. But what Duncan said above needs to be considered. When you say "loom", does that include the transmission loom? Because you will need to swap out the auto tranny loom for the equivalent manual loom, and get rid of the neutral/park start interlock (basically hot wire it).
    • I have had the r3c in for years now, maybe close to 7 years and it has never missed a beat, anyone can drive it. Super easy to drive around town, the hotter it gets does get a little hard but it holds the power easy as
