Not to be rude but um... you just said said your GF has customers with big heads that hurt on the way in....

I realised after I posted that I left myself somewhat vulnerable there lol

Good pick up.

well it finally started but I could only find a crappy peice of tube to connect for the Idle valve and it kept kinking so it would barely idle. But other than that about friggen time.

Nice work! :woot:

Did you use the tie wire with that beanie, or just left it sitting there?

I dont know if anyone can answer this but will this (see link to what i have bought)

Work with my turbo like this (has the V band in the middle not with the bolts)

This is a hard one to describe, but im confident its the right housing.

if you think about it, just coz the CHRA can be v banded, it doesnt mean you cant machine a bolt on housing to press up to the CHRA and work.

im pretty sure the kando CHRA's are direct copies of the MHI items, and many of the housings are direct copies of the MHI housings also. Yet these T3 10cm housings are definitely custom, and im sure it is them that is different to a normal housing and are machined to have the v band chra slot in and then have a bolt on piece press it in.

Simple logic to me!

I used a spring on the dump side of the turbo. The other side was awkward to get to the clips and I just wanted to know if the bastard would start lol.

Urt. Did u wrap the entire manifold or jus cyl 1&6?

Hey Jez, nah I did about 2/3 of the manifold, the whole Ext gate dump and about half of the turbo dump. I had to remove a bit on the manifold to get the nuts onto the studs onto the flange, I might fix it later but at the sec I just wanted to know if it would start.

I reckon I did alright for a "pen pusher" with soft paper handling hands as my mates would call me.

Good point. Only way to find out is take if off and inspect.

I took the POS for it's maiden voyage. and all I have to say HOLY S**T BALLS. These turbo's sound like jet engines with the surge slots and wow I didn't expect it to have masses more bottom end then my old turbo esp when it's bigger. MUST GET TUNE ASAP!!!!!

Awesome!! Can't wait to see the results of a tune, but glad you are happy with it... Love the spool sound, haven't heard a Kando yet but can't wait too :D

Thats sick man! I like that TD07 front cover, Im of the opinion a larger front cover can be a really good thing on a turbo that size/spec.

Looking forward to your results :)

    • I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
    • The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.
    • No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.
    • Yes they do. For some maybe. But for those used the most by abusers, ie Skylines, the numbers are known. The stock eyebrow height for R32/3 Skylines is about 365/375mm or thereabouts. The minimum such heights are recorded in adjacent columns in the database.
    • Hmmm, interesting. Makes me wonder whether there is bias as well. It's the cheapest fuel, so it is used for all kinds of ill-maintained shitboxes which are bound to have issues regardless. Nicer cars tend to require higher octane rated fuel and can't use it anyway. FWIW, the official NSW E10 facts page is decent.
