alright dude do that will be easier...

toffy you going round 2 saturday?....

decided on new wheels as well ssr professors now colour thinking chrome or the matt almost same colour as the car

thinking chrome would look good with the chrome seal covers size have no idea

thoughts???

Nah I won't be at round two sadly , I was up there last weekend racing so I'm broke this week , and I'm putting my s14 together . 18" in a 9 and 10 would be my choice , in chrome (I just bought some ssr vienna courage , they would suit this car perfect! )

dont support cartel, the owner is a total f**khead.

really better of buying decent when it comes to oil coolers. will have no end of trouble other wise. id also hesitate to put 10's on. you will struggle to find puss enough ones i reckon, unless you got full faggoty toyota specs.

  • 2 weeks later...

time is coming to throw the ebay turbo in the bin and buy a decent one thinking a garrett 3076r need some advice from others out there on other good turbo ideas????????

Problem with the 3076 and a external gate?

Toffy you'll jizz when you see it for the first time once it's done wish I had turbo and tune for next month for the drift battles :/

As toffy saud kinugawa (sp?) Are decent for the price, theres a hyge thread on them in the forced induction section and alot of people get good power figures out of them at a price a whole lot cheaper than garrett.

Imo the gtx wouldn't really pay off for the extra money you'll pay over a normal 3076, the motors not built is it? so your not going to be runnning huge amounts of boost where youll see the quicker spool times. But thats just going off what ive read on them

yeah ive read abit about them seem good for the price motor is stock internals besides the cams i dont wanna run a heap of boost my goal is to get good power but have the motor safe so it lasts!!

everyone seems to be saying 10 so think ill go with that...

last week or 2 the cars been up in damos shed having wiring done i.e. melted wires fixed horn lights wiring for the manual gearbox and finally found the ems stinger and after a little reading seems like they are a good computer so new turbo and tune needs to come soon!!

    • I was 99% sure the standard one is long enough to get there, you might just have to change the throttle orientation. If not, I remember someone having used an r31 cable instead, but that is probably harder to find than r33 by now...
    • HELP   Hey all, Is there an accelerator cable from another Nissan that can be used on the R33 GTST RB25DET with a Greddy forward facing plenum?  Thanks in advance  Rob 
    • Or do we think it was installed to give 1 bar of boost max, all day, everyday?
    • So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit? 
    • Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
