I agree with this sometimes in the case of boredom, but now that my car is where I want it modification wise, I have no desire to modify further but still want to keep it.

Best if you can modify a car 'properly' not long after you buy it, that way if you keep it a few years you will get some good use out of the mods, and not blow your cash.

Unfortunately some workshops/owners don't know what the good mods are.

3076R Low doesn't look TOOOOO different to a stock turbo ;) Considering I'm without a heatshield at the moment anyway. Dat noise tho, pppsssssssss

Edit: Hmmmm, what do they make on E85? 330rwkw?

Buy my entire setup.

GTX 3076 will make 450kw or so on the right setup. Greg made 380 with his auto... return flow, stock airboc, 3 inch dump and intake. Stock officer. Personally I would go with the gtx71 for some extra response.

Garrett list them at 230-390kw

Go hypergear bro. Cheaper, local support and some really nice turbos on their menu lately.

i call bullshit on 450... no offense scotty.... but seriously what is that like 100psi?

Apparently 45psi, someone has done it on a SR20.

That said, was in a magazine. I was sceptical, but given I got 405 on 28ish psi, I see no reason that 15 extra psi wouldn't result in 50kw...

Inb4 stao

Inb4 toby's 400kw

HG turbo checking in, 15,000km and spinning like the day it was put in

I'm not saying they don't work but really they are not very much if at all cheaper than Garretts and due to having a plain bearing core you do lose some response(and that cool whirr down noise after the cars turned off :P) I just don't see them as excellent value for money.

    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
    • Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
    • There's not a great deal to report here .... except ...... FOR .... LSD!!!  I bought a Quaife LSD from the UK and shipped it here .... Wish I'd just bought locally cause the shipping and duty was $700! But there were so many diffs used in the E90s I just wanted to be absolutely certain I was getting the right one so I spoke with a supplier in the UK who builds race cars and they have heaps of experience with the E90s.  I pulled the diff out which was seriously awesome - I've never done anything like that before, I must have watched 1000 videos on YT about it as well as consulting the Bentley manual. It was super easy in the end. The diff was delivered to the awesome folks at Hornsby Diffs and will be back in a few weeks. I also replaced the diff bushings with some Nolathane ones.  Really looking forward to getting it back and getting back to the track or even the skidpan.
    • yeah... the 13kg/mm springs weren't always in there, I had 10kg/mm but doing a few SMSP commanded heavier front springs. It's so good now going into T1 and T2, just need more seat time and real tyres.
