A big shout out to Scotty NM35 for all his help and skinned knuckles with the removal and install of my turbo!

New shorter core produced quite a few install issues and problems for Scott along the way. But he endured and I have boost again!

Coupled with a 'Scott Dump Pipe' and actuator mod, there is a definite extra kick.

Thanks so much Scott. Love your work.

No problem Dominic, glad to help. Did you get underneath and check it out?

Not very happy with the way this turbo was installed, too many mods required to make it a feasible option. That said the stock like response felt good for an untuned engine.

You are lucky I waived the bandaid tax, costs could have blown right out. :)

Welcome Dominic

Yeah, I hear Scotty does OK work :)

What turbo did you get?

Cheers, Leon.

Lol ok? There were SOOO many problems Scott had to fix after getting the turbo back.

Someone left the door open again, daym wastlanders...

It was the "stock" sized wheels that Stao just designed, only hassle was the chra was 21mm shorter meaning the compressor housing and everything hanging off it was 21mm further back.

I won't be fitting another one of these.

Sounds like the same issue that Craig had when his 3071 highflow went on.

Pick up yo phonnnneee nigggahh

Exactly, even though I was promised it would fit as he had already sold two of them. It's easy to fit when someone else is doing the work though.

Haven't had a chance to climb under and look as yet... Got home from work in the dark yesterday, then back here this morning in the dark! Things one has to do to pay for repairs to a shagged M35 turbo!

Really impressed by the acceleration. As you said, close to stock. Very linear and coming on from approx 2500rpm with the extra kick.

My original post certainly didn't describe just how much stuffing about you had to do. Word of warning for anyone else going down this path... Speak to Scott and he will say, DON'T, I am sure.

Thanks for waiving the bandaid tax - with the number of cuts suffered, the cost would easily been higher than the value of the car!!

That was a mighty big look of relief in the rear view mirror, when I drove off - clearly happy to see my car disappear!

relief?

hahah he was probably pissed off that he had to start mine

    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
    • What are we supposed to be seeing in the photo of the steering angle sensor? The outer housing doesn't turn, right? All the action is on the inside. The real test here is whether or not your car has had the steering put back together by a butcher. When the steering is centred (and we're not caring about the wheel too much here, we're talking about the front wheels, parallel, facing front) then you should have an absolutely even number of turns from centre to left lock and centre to right lock. If there is any difference at all then perhaps the thing has been put back together wrongly, either the steering wheel put on one spline (or more!) off, and the alignment bodged to straighteb the wheel, or the opposite where something silly was done underneath and the wheel put back on crooked to compensate. Nut there isn't actually much evidence that you have such a problem anyway. It is something you can easily measure and test for to find out though. My money is still on the HICAS CU not driving the PS solenoid with the proper PWM signal required to lighten the load at lower speed. If it were me, I would be putting either a multimeter or oscilloscope onto the solenoid terminals and taking it for a drive, looking for the voltage to change. The PWM signal is 0v, 12V, 0V, 12v with ...obviously...modulated pulse width. You should see that as an average voltage somewhere between 0V and 12V, and it should vary with speed. An handheld oscilloscope would be the better tool for this, because they are definitely good enough but there's no telling if any cheap shit multimeter that people have lying around are good enough. You can also directly interfere with the solenoid. If you wire up a little voltage divider with variable resistor on it, and hook the PS solenoid direct to 12V through that, you can manually adjust the voltage to the solenoid and you should be able to make it go ligheter and heavier. If you cannot, then the problem is either the solenoid itself dead, or your description of the steering being "tight" (which I have just been assuming you mean "heavy") could be that you have a mechanical problem in the steering and there is heaps of resistance to movement.
    • Little update  I have shimmed the solenoid on the rack today following Keep it Reets video on YouTube. However my steering is still tight. I have this showing on Nisscan, my steering angle sensor was the closest to 0 degrees (I could get it to 0 degrees by small little tweaks, but the angle was way off centre? I can't figure this out for the life of me. I get no faults through Nisscan. 
    • The BES920 is like the Toyota Camrys of coffee machines. E61 group head is cool, however the time requirements for home use makes it less desirable. The Toyota Camry coffee machine runs twin boilers and also PID temp control, some say it produces coffees as good as an E61 group head machine.
    • And yes with a full tank it will hit limiter free revving or driving 6B6CDF6E-4094-426D-A9CB-6C553475FE36.mp4
