i recon by the time i'm done the grand total will be pretty small

2'nd hand everything

turbo - $400

front/dump - $400

3port - $100

hotside LICP $100

already have fuel pump

Total $1000 + tune for 230awkw is pretty damn good

also $2000 total spend for 70-80kw gain (50% over stock) is hard to beat

20psi is stock

dat boost

Drove Aarons last night, sure as fuark doesn't feel like a stock car, dat pull in low gears <3

It's cause you are used to your cars gear ratios and spool rate. Jump in a diesel or v8 and you would have more pull in low gears too.

Birds explained it few pages back. It's no criss angel

true and untrue....

it doens't feel like a stock car, that's for sure

remember its an actual sports car from factory... has stiffer suspension, chassis is reinforced etc etc

but you are sure right about the gearing

Yeh pretty much add a catback to that and it's also my list, not hard to get there at all.

Ads $350 for a flash

But for a daily, feeling fast could be better than actually being fast and it feeling slow... Unless you want crazy butt raep fines.

On the freeway I pulled in 3rd from 70 (where I'd normally be in 2nd for a quicker spool) and I was quicker up until I ran out of fuel. Got got a little jump on me at the start obviously.

I only drove the evo for about a 1km of Springvale Road and didn't get over 100 80 kilometers per hour in accordance with state government regulation so didn't really get to feel the higher speed pull. I guess that's where the capacity makes a difference.

I also don't understand why it's got such a bad turning circle? Is it just that the wheels dont have enough lock?

Something to do with the 4wd system I don't know.

I wanted to do a 0-100 though.

    • I thought it could be an issue because the standard plate was flexing when stressed. Maybe the original gear set will hold a bit better without flex? Last time on the dyno it made around 670nm at the hubs. Now it have bigger turbo and better intake but have not been on a dyno yet. The car is being used from family trips to drag race events. So the shifts can be a little violent. It is grinding if I shift to fast so was thinking I should overhaul it soon.
    • From the factory on RB26s there's a fitting on the intake manifold collector/"plenum" that provides pre-throttle boost signal. That's how they did it back in the day, I figure it's fine to replicate it.
    • I would be surprised if that wasn't the issue. It's probably telling you, that even if you remove the plastic liner, you may have some other clearance issues that may occur too in some scenarios. IE, tyre to guard. It looks like someone has already rolled the lip, but you may still have issues in the future IE, turning and hitting a bump etc. The fact it changes how bad it makes the noise when you are going backward vs forward is highly indicative that it's the tyre rubbing. They do make a terrible sound, even if you're only pushing a project car that has a liner hanging down on a tyre!   Has the car been lowered? If it has been, what is the measurement from the centre of the wheel hub to the lip of the guard straight up?

    • Mark's a bit smarter than people give him credit... He'd convince the person that is to become dead, to drive him to the forest first. That way his car has no evidence in it, and he's free to dispose of their vehicle permanently how he sees fit too...
