Got my new tyres on today. Poor Chris from Inline was sick as a dog so I went in and gave him a hand finishing it off.

Pilot Super Sports much friendlier on the road than Pilot Sport Cups!

Wrap a rag around the bottle neck to roughly seal it in the radiator filler hole.

^^ This, or wrap electrical tape around the top of the bottle where the cap would go. Makes it nice and snug, and doesn't leak out. Which reminds me, I should probably bleed mine again.

YEAH!!! Awesome! Looks Great mate. :thumbsup:

Needs series 1 front bumper.

Why you have rear wheel off the 33?

If you want we can have a go at the 34s nuts and then do a wheel swap between the 2.

Both would look wicked. :D

Big silicone hose from Bunnings fits watertight in mine.

Nice 34 Dan, the front bar is a very modern style i think.

Vent for the intercooler, it must all be ducted, nice!

Put some primer on everything today, looks like a week of rain coming up.

More sanding to do........

Wheels were off the 33 because I took them to Sydney to put on the 34 originally and then accidentally left them in Sydney lol.

I might tackle the wheel nuts when I get back from NZ because I haven't sorted out my luggage or anything yet :S

Suspension also seems to be knocking fairly loud as if it was loose but I couldn't find the problem when I jacked it up

Wired in the rear speakers in the Skywagon, adjusted the rear wiper so it sits horizontal and removed a little check valve so now the rear window washer actually works.

Fixed the air in the cooling system this morning thanks guys. Just left it for 20 minutes and it seems great now.

Took it for a drive for the first time since installing the turbo. She's not very happy haha.. Doesn't want to make boost, and I don't really want to try and push it to test it... I thought this might be the case despite reading cases where people seem to be driving on high flows with the stock ecu. Off boost it feels fine. Do people think it would be ok to just granny it off boost till the tune? Otherwise I should be able to find another car to drive for the time being.

    • BRUH, one of the biggest mistakes of my life..... and i've had plenty ;[)
    • @Murray_Calavera iam just considering options 🙂 of course it is very expensive so that why i ask here 🙂  @joshuaho96 I looked at that GCG hybrid(i remember looking at it few weeks before) So this is "that" hybrid where i send them my turbo and they upgrade the inside to Garrett stuff and then they send it back. It cost around 1200-1300 USD which is FAR cheaper than the HKS and it is what iam looking for(i just do not have experience like this...to send something off to "upgrade" ) @tylink720 that is like 150 USD turbo no? 😄 I dont think i have the "ease on my mind" with this kind of turbo. I just put over 7000k USD to "LINK" up my engine...dont want to blow it up with cheap turbo 😄     EDIT: https://www.cj-motor.com/gcg-turbo-charger-for-nissan-rb20det-rb25det-high?srsltid=AfmBOooVeOZ6CZ6r1AIv5m-KPaa6BvudIPJTY8LW78khkd-gQlsaCht9 I looked at this and it seems ok? It is that CGC hybrid and it costs around 1250 USD (with back shipping). Do any of you have experience with this hybrid on NEO turbo? I quickly look thru the forum/web and it seems very good.

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
