You laugh now, but when I'm at a formal occasion with a shitty DJ and they need someone to drop Dre beats...I have something up my sleeve.

T.D you got too much money mang :P

I wish! We all know there's no such thing as too much money :(

Besides, if I had "too much money", my opening line would've been "Hey, do I want a 2015 or 2016 R35 GTR to drop my Alpha 16 package into?"

HG > Garrett

He uses Garrett cores in his BBs anyway, so it's really no contest if he's finding a way to improve on their designs with his own housings

Excellent turbos and I would buy 8 of them if I had 5k to spare

Cos it would still only feel like a small frame turbo at full boost i.e no kick in the dick we all love from a decent sized snail

Then I think your charger isn't running high enough boost

Assuming same torque at same RPM, all the turbo really does is roll on the same torque progressively

Running on 11psi at the moment with the blower but just doesn't make me go "whoa" anymore.

Yeah but from a dig what feels like puts you further back in the seat assuming you both get to 100kmh at the same time?

Stock Turbos versus a big single? I think I'd know what I'd choose if I was only going for excitement factor.

Tell that to the last one I installed.

It may have been as he also makes highflows... would you like a medal?

I fail to see how that has anything to do with what he built for Cat.

      Rusty roof repair

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.

      I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent.

      Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.

      Rusty roof repair

      By PranK · Posted

      So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
