Troy sorry I missed your post the other day, I have used Kent brake and clutch on port rd they are very good and not that dear

Jenna sorry I have no idea for all I know its a high flow as he was saying to my mate for $1750 he could have the turbo and fitted so it must be a bolt on most Garrett require new dump pipes

yeah steve @ racetech has a good reputation.

ash hobson at hackham classic perfomance dyno (chapman road, behind cottage lane) is good with skylines too, loads of good results, but probably not that cheap - drop in and ask for a price.

Jenna, Adelaide Turbo Services can make you up a GT30-based turbo with stock (fully ported) front/rear housings. Get a price from Bill Keen.

Andrew - with the SAFCII I would suggest to also add in an apexi SITC, so you can tune the air:fuel ratio along with ignition timing. Well worth it IMO.

Highly recommended :)

Willall is the go for all your tuning needs - no Disney dyno crap there - just no frills tuning that simply works. On a related topic - big thanks to Martin for tuning the tow rig, an excellent result!

Jaustech at Holden hill are great if you're near that area. Anthony has done most of the work on my car and he definitely knows what he's on about, just have a look at his cefiro. Plus they're great blokes too

That's about what I get in my dead stock R33 GTS-T. In regular commuting traffic my fuel economy hovers around 10.5 to 11 ltr/100km, on whatever the pump 98 RON is I get. And that's with a mighty 128rwkW ;D

My economy is with it at 270rwkw, I actually got about another 50-70 k's per week by changing to a bigger turbo due to rarely being on boost

touch ur toes at ash'es but gets results

^^^ DOH! How many hours had he owned it when he did that?

2 and a half days. Might be a write off, a pillar is moved and floor is creased.

Supposedly he was just putting around and got t boned.

Considering I've already had 3-4 concerned phone calls from people asking if it was stolen recently, the young lad has been driving it hard.

So I doubt it wasn't partly his fault.

Steve Knight racetech in Lonsdale.

Has an AWD dyno too for any GTR owners down that way.

Def my pick for down south....more so for mechanical work than tuning........Troy, he'll be fine for your clutch change-over and belt replacement

ahhh, Martin told me he was going to tune the ZF in your Disco.......how have you found it compared to its previous tune and what gains did you make?

We gained 30+awkw to end up with 175awkw and more importantly gained 100% more torque - I'll default to Martin to share the results from the dyno........

As you know they are already quite grunty for a 4WD, but even more so now and it drives very nicely. Fuel economy should increase now too - test underway currently as I compare the usage on the current tank load.

thanks bud.....I completed a long trip with my Disco pulling a 3 tonne van and it did it every bit as easy as the LC200 which has an extra 1.5 litres and an extra 2 cyls :thumbsup:

Sequential turbo setup is what I'm putting it too (with the small primary and bigger secondary).....the new 3.0L is an awesome engine too......and doesn't burn oil like the LC200 either, LOL

Where is the meet point, and what time, matty? Maybe for me - got the kids, and me & the youngest have a bad cold.

Having said that, we're off in a moment to see Adelaide United vs Gold Coast with a mate.... my children havent been to a live sports match in a number of years (youngest was in a pram last time we went to a sanfl match) so it should be a good night, both kidlings are soccer players & are looking forward to it.

come to the T20 big bash on sunday brendan. even though i pretty much hate that form of cricket, i go just for the atmosphere, especially seeing as the redbacks win one every now and then

    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
