Hell yeah. When i drive this thing it brings a smile to my face which is why i built it. If it doesnt sound the way i want it to then its not right.

Flame on lol

Awww..... 'Yeahhhh, but race carrrr.. :blush: '

Damn i was gona go a HG next year but this thread is converting me.....aarghh right decision i hope.

Do it!!! i am, my car will be off the road for a good year to save the cash to do a turbo upgrade.

going to do it on the cheap side and hope things last and upgrade them as needed.

List so far is:

Ebay special high mount exhaust manifold.

Most likely T67 -25G turbo

44mm TIAL gate or turbosmart 38mm ultra gate

freddy inlet manifold ?? Maybe needed for highmount turbo

deatschwerks 1000cc injectors

E85 fuel as insurance on the stock engine.

everything else i have to run it but might sell the PFC and Z32AFM and buy a ECU with a MAP sensor

freddy plenum or any front facing plenum is not needed for high mount.

stick with 44mm tial gate as its proven already, no 38mm jobs so far but you never know, you may be the first to get it working and holding boost properly with the t67..

i wouldn't go ebay s/s high mount just yet, wait to see how long Jez's manifold lasts before jumping on ebay and getting one.

U dont need an inlet manifold, just shorten/ re-route ur pipes, someones done it on some thead, my shopping list for now:

Z32 -$150 and up

Siemens dekka 60lb top feed high impedance injectors-ebay only round $280, spacers and EV1 plug convertors separate

Turbosmart CompGate 40 - round $330

TD06SL2-20G 10cm kit - $750

Misc plumbing, gaskets, elbows, bits, pipes- $100..

Still comes out ok if u shop around and have a gud fabricator too..

But as of yet i can only sit n wish for another three months till i get my licence back from darlings NSW RTA..

38mm gate doesnt sound big enough? But then I dunno much about ext gate setups except that most r using 44mm so kinda surprised, as even trent said that 40mm is the min he will go

If you are running more boost you don't need it as big.

To whoevers interested, this is very cheap!

I have a tial wastegate for sale.. It is a 44mm and has a 1.1bar spring in it..

$280 posted anywhere in oz.. Cheers

Jez, what did you do with the turbo oil return? Did you use the standard rb25 one or did you use the one supplied in the kando kit?

If you are running more boost you don't need it as big.

Exactly.

So since i have a turbosmart t boost controller already and will be running say 22psi max, u guys r saying a 38mm gate will do?? Running Nistune btw

What is this? Turbo 101?

What about more boost implies a smaller gate will suffice? Remember that more boost will be more flow, more flow will mean it needs a gate that can flow it.

Just because running an undersized gate will overdrive the turbine and hold high boost while sucking at low boost doesnt mean its a good thing. Equally so running a bigger gate doesnt somehow suck at running lower boost, DOES IT? Don't be so feeble minded to think the extra flow will balance out with the added shaft speed needed for the boost, it aint that simple.

My gate cant bypass enough gas to hold steady boost. Oh yeah, duff man.

Get the f**king Tial MVR you tight asses, Im sure a $300 turbosmart progate is not genuine to begin with.

    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
    • You have a knack for photography my friend. It makes the 86 look like a complete bucket. The 34 went with you to Europe and back. It's special. (we all feel the same about our 'shitboxes' that every bystander seems to absolutely love)
