Da Bitch Is Back

I know we gonna need it.

But wires etc, i'm lucky. All mine (being R31) are not there etc. And the bay has a slightly different design.

But mine sit's VERY low. So i wont need to move the P/S stuff luckily. Just need to make a add-on to my haet shield that i've already got.

Gonna be good fun. How does it feel?

Nice and responsive?

I was very surprised how much low down torque it has. U can drive in heavy traffic changing at 3000-3500rpm and it feels like a stockish car, but more than half throttle near 4000rpm and the turbo come on nice and hard.

I havent had a chance to test it out properly yet, need to find a nice cough*private road*cough to open it out.

I had 1 print out of the dyno graph but it got wet and smugged on sat when i was moving some stuff from my car to the garage and i left the graph on the bonnet and it started to rain and it got farked up.

I had an etag sitting on the dash on the way back from the skidpad day yesterday, and merging off the the tulla freeway on the westgate freeway i went from 5th to 3rd and gave it a bit of curry upto 6000rpm and the etag flew straight between me and the misses and hit the back windscreen rather hard. I shat myself if it hit me or someone in the backseat in the face it would have left quite a bruise, so theres a few g's when the turbo gets on full song.

Looks hot Denham. I'll be taking my car down to ICE aswell for some upgrades, Gt3540 turbo, ext gate, injectors, rail, pump and power fc but I'll be utilising the standard exh. maninfold, aiming for similar power as to what you got. ;)

lol, it does fit I've had an adapter plate made up. I've trial fitted it and seems to be fine. sits nice and low, though I don't know how responsive it'll be. If it turns out crappy I'll just have to go for a custom high mount setup, and not be tight ass... ;)

A 3540 would be very laggy even with a proper manifold i recon, but it could push u over 400rwkw with cams, headwork etc.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
