yeh i understand about the dyno numbers and all, the car does drive well apart from fuel economy but thats to be expected and current set up was good for a 10 second pass but yeh more power would be nice.

i was looking around on rhd japan and they dont seem to sell the 22cm rear housings on their own anymore.

yeh ive already sent them an email the other day asking them what they think about my set up and just waiting for a reply. probably get it next week when they should be back at work

Heat treatments first hit the 7s with a T51R SPL, got to have been making some power to do that - was definitely over 1khp

Are you sure they did that with a T51RSPL? For some reason I thought they were on a GT45 or even 47R Garrett which given the level of performance of the car may have even been a special version.

Spent a little while then searching around; Yes GK and SPL are similar, GK has higher HP rating for the same level of response. T62R was made to (apart from other things) nudge out the GK, and naturally is bigger. The thing is though, for this discussion the SPL really isnt needed IMO, here's why; Garage Saurus using an old 34D ran in the 8's, so that's got to be enough power for Chris to enjoy :) .....or is it haha

Everyone here's 8's, 34D, Watch from 1.12.

I did ask him which rear it had when at his shop but it was ages ago and I forget. NYTSKY might remember, he was busy buying a bellmouth at the same time

now its just a matter of taking the car to get it put in along with a service n also bought a set of mines ncam baffles as ive been putting that off for a while.

also bought the hks t4-t51r adaptor flange so that i willl be able to still use my greddy manifold and will only need to make up a new dump pipe with v-band flange

    • Thanks for the response. This is an 04 EP3 Type R. JDM spec. Fairly certain they're just basic BC racing coils. I do plan to keep as the ride quality on stock I've been told is pretty meh given Sydney roads. If I were to go down that avenue, does NSW require them to be a certain spec (close to original) etc?
    • Should have asked what is the car?
    • I've had two super conflicting experiences with blue slips. My 30 year old E39 waltzed through with no issues but my brother in law was knocked back on 12 y/o 3 series due to wiper blades and some cracking in a control arm bush.  What kind of coil overs? Do you want to keep them after?  If it was me I'd get some dirt cheap shocks and springs from eBay or scumtree. Not ideal but will get you over the line and might even be less than $1k.
    • Hey guys,  Way back when (about 15yrs plus), I picked up a beautiful set of Tein 'Super Racing Spec Circuit Master RE' coilovers from Russman. I have legit never fitted them to my car, as it was garaged indefinitely while i bought a house Yada Yada. They look brand new! Anyway its time to pick up where I left off, and have started doing some khanacross and am booked in for a hill climb next month. The car has some hard af Nismo shocks in ATM, which has me wanting to upgrade again, and now I am left wondering if it's worth having these teins rebuilt? I think they where an ok shock back then, but how do they compare to what's on the market now?  Shockworks/mca are 2800+, and I am sure they are great. But if I can have these rebuilt and be better than, say, a set of bc's for around the cost of bc's, I would be happy with the performance v cost trade off.  If they are considered outdated and rubbish these days, so be it, I'll put them on the shelf and be happy to look at the pretty green colour while I save for the SW/MCA option. Grateful for your thoughts on the matter, and suggestions on who could do the rebuild if it's a worthwhile pursuit.  cheers, Rowdy. 
    • I can't speak for the US, but for Canada as I mentioned above, all fuel gases contain ethanol. We have regulations for E5/E10/E15. Each province handles it differently but basically any fuel gases sold must be E10 and slowly increasing to E15 by a certain year.
