Is it on yet? What wheels did you end up with?

Yes, fired it up last night to check for leaks. Only one was exhaust, but was last join in the cat back so easy to fix. I still have to drop the radiator fluid as only put water in it for the test in case it was a total fail & I lost all the green stuff. Still haven't driven it.

No idea what wheels went in. I wasn't asked what I wanted when I ordered it & didn't know I had a choice. Probably a good thing as I would have researched it to death & then chosen wrong, lol. I just hope it's not too laggy.

Not planning to go through all that again I assume? lol.

I suspect he put the smaller wheels in yours, did you take any pics? We should start a Stagea Hypergear thread and post pics up with power/lag results. I took quite a few...

Is the bigger Hypergear core more expensive and laggy compared to Leon's?

The billet compressor is $200 more, the customer can decide how laggy they want it to be...

It seems to be around 3500 from what I saw, perhaps you can elaborate Marko? Bit hard without a boost gauge I suppose.

I think the sizes are teh ghey. Their staggered for a start, and I think the fronts run a really high offset? like +47 or something?

Yep. Fronts are +47 I think and rears are +15. I thought about getting 2 sets and run the +15s only but too much hassle.

That's pretty good...your old/my setup hits max boost around the same rpm? so its not too laggy then...

Its not laggy at all for the power, just when you compare it to the stock turbo.

Im going back to edge tomorrow for my attempt to crack 350kw with the GTX3071, will let you know how it goes. I wouldn't like to go laggier than what I have at the moment but where is the fun in stopping there? Next goal will be 400. :)

Haha, no Scotty, not planning to do that again in a hurry.

I took quite a few pics and, because I had my original turbo plus the hi-flowed one, I was able to do side-by-side photos. Makes it easy to see the difference.

Good idea re new thread. It's started so you & Marko can make the first posts with your results. I still have some info to gather before having anything useful to post.

Sprayed up the front bar with a can for the trail fit.....also fitted the rear bar up.

Just waiting on the new rear wing now and then it's time for the spray jobs.

I also fitted a new pre-load spring to the Actuator.....back to 14PSI+ launch's! :P

Looking very mean! When the flairs merge in it'll be spot on. Its a shame the former owner of that front bar decided to cut out the stock Kenstyle/Xanadu style grill. Irrespective, it's looking good. Whats the height from ground to the front lip?

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      Given you're running a 2.8 and my 2.5 is not really like for like, I suspect there could be a bit more timing you could give it. What is the kW yield per degree you're putting through it? Here's my E85 map to give you an idea, where it was I could still get another 3~4kW per degree thrown at it.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      It turns out that Setrab make a fan specifically for the oil cooler which is great and I've installed it with minimal swearing. I removed my 2x 12in push fans from the front of my aircon condenser and wired them into this. My main thermo fans kick on when I use the aircon anyway and would effectively already be working as puller fans through the condensor which is infront of the rad. The push fans (understandably) didn't really do much in the config they were previously in so now they're out. Now we're on to the "Oil fan doesn't really do much either!". Yes I'll duct it next if it does nothing in heavy use which it shouldn't. But hey, the object exists and fits great and is cool. Let me have this. The car is still in the "do my fittings leak oil now? do my wheels actually rub?" phase. I did a spirited drive on them and didn't hear or feel anything. Then I got back home and noticed there were grind marks on the inside of the rims, though I couldn't see where they were touching I got out the grinder and attacked the suspects. Note: I do not know how to use a grinder. Then I realised I had dragged my new rims across my concrete driveway before I did this drive. I didn't think I had damage at that time when I briefly looked...... but remembered this occurred after I did all the angle grinding. The grinding on the wheels in some very specific spots. It's not around the whole rim for example, which lines up with dragging it across concrete more than hitting a suspension component for even 1 full rotation. So everything is currently painted and taped up and I need to test it some more to see if it really IS rubbing, but from inside the car it doesn't feel like it is. In other news I attempted to do a before and after comparison of the heads/cam upgrade thing. Dynos lie, everything is in different measurements. Here is the data from the sandown back straight. Car go faster than before. Vroom vroom.

      Here's my base ignition. +3 correction to redline when shooting water/meth which is always on. Looking at my old ignition table, I should be able to add 1-2 degree's next time I'm on the dyno.  Let me know your thoughts.

      Given what I know now - same haha, but this was 12 years ago with second hand 740cc Nismo injectors in my S15 daily, I was too busy hunting elsewhere for the issue to even look at the injectors, running through some cleaner was a happy coincidence haha

      Not a terrible idea. But if I ever had concerns that my injectors were sufficiently dirty to be causing me a problem, they would be out of the engine and onto the actual injector cleaner/testing bench.
