Hi Scott,

What would "happen" if I had you to the swapover and install this without a tune? Or is it mandatory that this requires a tune to get it up and running

Nothing would go wrong (the ecu will protect itself), but you wouldn't get the gains obviously, and it would be rather laggy, coming on around 4k revs without a tune.

How long has stao had this out? I just got my billet high flow 2 weeks ago off him but he never mentioned it was new? It looks to be the same unless he's changed something I can't see in the pic....

Just released, not sure but I think yours will be the standard billet highflow, slightly smaller and different profiled rear wheel. Slightly smaller wastegate. Still good for almost 280kw on 98, this one just trades perhaps 200 revs of response for another 30kw or so, but I am only guessing at this point till someone tunes it up and leans on it.

Mine actually left the garage tonight, and it seriously needs a good wash and detail. I'm thinking once it gets a decent layer of polish/wax, it won't look so filthy after the rain as the water should slide right off...

So just went to pick up a silicone joiner from the shop, who also are certified garret and holset turbo specialist. And queried the guy about hi flowing my stock m35 turbo, he said a stage 2 would cost me 1650 plus gst which is pretty steep, so does anyone in nz know where to get this done at a better price?

Hopefully get the quote back for the shift kit install tomorrow :)

^^^what he said. Not necessarily the cheapest around but certainly none better.

Then go to Soichi at ST Hitec for an HKS ecu and a tune!

Indeed +1 for Soichi. Did my fcon and tune!

Forgot about him actually, he is dam good at this stuff. So I'll give him a bell, have already spoken to Soichi about tuning which he's happy to do, but still have to complete supporting mods first,

How's your car going Dale? That fcon harness you sold me is dying to go on haha.

Stage 2... Not very descriptive.

Hard to pass on Hypergear's prices, and results. No other turbo re-builder would be modifying your highflow with 38mm wastegate puck to control the boost creep, custom billet wheels etc, and all for $1250...

I agree Scott. But do like to support my local if I can. For 1250 Aus plus postage I'm already looking at 1650nz to get one here and have the car off the road for the added shipping time and if I need to use warranty, same process.

I'll talk to the guys again about what exactly goes into a "stage 2"

He also mentioned he had done Vq/vg turbos in the past and wanted me to ask the sau guys if the oil lines have restrictors in them not just in the banjo but actual line and if the line runs through the block or simply bolt to it to pick up the feed.

Anybody sure ?

So he is selling you a product and hasn't even researched, not even a little bit, about it's intended application?

Yes there are 3 restrictors, and the oil pressure is twice what an RB runs. I have no idea what core he is trying to build so I can offer no advice on what needs to be done to increase the oil flow. Too much and the seals will leak, not enough and the bearings won't last long.

Just remember, if it fails there is never a warranty on turbos from my experience.

Lol it was literally quoted on the spot, I would be taking the car down for him to look at next time and give him a proper go at it.

Did anyone know that m24n is just a code for the material garret use.... Learn something new everyday

I hope he runs BB chra's, otherwise the oil flow will be insufficient and it will most certainly ruin any bush core. Been there done that a few times. Learn from my mistakes.

      I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed

      Recommendation for engine oil funnel spill free

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.

      Fuel Pump Control Module & Dropping Resistor

      By EndZee · Posted

      Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
