Thanks bling.

Its not that the T67 is bad, it just seems that it is choking the engine. Super early spool and a drop off at high revs.

I sent a message to Kando too. He says he doesn't have a 12cm for the T67. So it looks like I'm sticking with what I've got for a while anyway, at least till have money for another turbo at some point.

do the anti surge front covers not perform well?i have a kando td06 sl2 20g with a 8cm rear that i am putting in my r33 at the moment.i was looking for a 10cm rear and contacted kando and they said i would have to buy it seperate.but i got the turbo and tial 44mm mvr wastegate brand new for dirt cheap so i couldnt let it go.just hoping the anti surge cover wont cause any problems

You can get the housings separate, exhaust side is about 150 and intake is less.

Mook it might be worth you just getting 2 housings and giving it a go. Assuming antisurge might be an issue and it might be an 8cm.

You can use boost pressure to help hold the wastegate shut. Definitely worthwhile.

I finally got my Kinagawa actuator, I asked for the extra nipple but didn't get one! I might be able to find something with the right thread to suit though.

The actuator itself looks very good.

We have the car on track today and my exhaust temps are through the roof. Melting the tar on the floor inside and the carpet and the mat on the carpet. So guessing the housing is way too small.

Andy, Do you have any pics of your 10cm housing for me to compare to mine please

This can be from the tune also

Thanks for the pics guys, my housing looks pretty dam close to the ones in the pics, so i think it may be a 10cm

What in the tune can cause so much heat??? I dont mean to sound like a smart ass there, i honestly dont know

ARTZ, i dont think so, i dialed the cams in when i assembled the engine and they are within 1/2 degree of the factory settings.

My car blows fireballs the size of a car so i dont think its running lean, :yes:

I backed the boost off to around 16psi from 22 to control the heat, it was stupid hot at winton this weekend. It did make a difference, as it should.

No cat, does have a straight through muffler and a res though,

The AFR's were a little rich on the dyno, not heaps just a little to be safe, from memory they were around low 12's high 11's i think. I'm pretty tired from the weekend, i could be wrong i will check later today gonna go see my tuner.

    • Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.
    • Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
    • Thanks @Duncan Ride height is fine. I think it's almost stock tbh. Happy to share a pic. I don't actually have a regular mechanic as haven't lived in Sydney too long. Could you or anyone recommend any shops in Sydney?
    • You just need a different blue slip shop (preferably one you regularly use as a mechanic), and make sure the coil overs are as close as possible to standard height
    • yeah the sugar refining companies were pushing for the same in Oz originally, all fuels were going to have 10% ethanol to make them "cheaper" (noting, that the loss in l/100 might be greater than the decrease in price). I guess they won that fight in Canadia
