Have run it on 1/8 mile here at 400rwkw ran 6.8@106mph. Was meant to race 1/4 mile tomorow but meeting cancelled.

Wow, it's going to be nasty next time - well into the tens at that rate!

FP have dropped prices on a bunch of their turbos, some would be the ones particularly good for Skylines:

Well him or mark at gt pumps can both make them. Mark at g g pumps has not replied to my email yet. Kando has made some hta wherls for mitsi turbos but not garrett he said. So does have some sizes slready on his cnc computer. Im also very wary to get him to make me one to put on a 3076 I have laying hear in the shed. Does fp hta sell just the comp wheel

Lol updates will come soon from mine, not sure where the others are up too.... From what i know there were a couple of others keen on the HTA but not sure who has commited too it!

I ordered mine direct from Forced Performance.

I have my HTA, hope to have it running by mid Oct...

Knowing that is 10mm more compressor on a comparable dyno to 34GeeTeeTee makes me all jittery. That 40kw advantage is shadowed by the outright potential of this thing... And look at the way it aggressively stands up at the 3.7 mark and does a pretty decent job of holding on to its torque too.

That must be freaking scary to drive. I am very jealous.

Good work sky30.

Just emailed kando dynamics and he is quite happy to make hta billet wheels as long as I can supply him with a example or drawing of the wheel? What do you guys think?

Honestly you might just want to source me a 2nd hand HTA turbo and I can have it copied and modified in Australia to what ever shape you want at a fraction of the time.

How ever it takes lot of time and effort to develop a successful compressor wheel, even thou been a competitor I respect their work. Which I'm happy to spend time and modify one of my own wheels to match or beat their performance but I will never copy their work.

Obviously unlike people marks their profits based on copying other people's hard work, since the formation of their business all they've done is making good counterfeits out of many successful competitors products then dump them at a fraction of the costs. That is particularly harmful for the original developers, if that carries on then no one will be welling to invest their time and efforts in better products.

So if you want a HTA item and can't afford it now, then save up for it with respect. Do not cheap it out.

Agreed, it looks like a wicked street setup and still capable of more - it looks pretty much like a normal GT3582R spool but GT3582R+ power which is definitely nice.

:cheers: Awesome attitude :) Would be interesting to see if you could develop wheels to match or beat their performance, I'd certainly get in behind if there is a reliable more local product which could do what the HTAs do all things being equal.

In other news - FP have released a Super 99 HTA turbo, a 103lb/min T3 flanged (hopefully they release other flange versions - but still) turbo capable of >1000hp. MENTAL!

I seen that on there eeb page Lithium. Looks promising. Stao you should try create some new wheels that match ir beat the hta comp wheels as Lithium mentioned. I always prefer to go local if I can. I just dont know what to do im not using the plain new gt3076 I have in the shed. I may as well sell it and look into something like hta 3076 whole tufbo. At work cant fully write everything I wanted to.

Josh.

    • I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
    • The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.
    • No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.
    • Yes they do. For some maybe. But for those used the most by abusers, ie Skylines, the numbers are known. The stock eyebrow height for R32/3 Skylines is about 365/375mm or thereabouts. The minimum such heights are recorded in adjacent columns in the database.
    • Hmmm, interesting. Makes me wonder whether there is bias as well. It's the cheapest fuel, so it is used for all kinds of ill-maintained shitboxes which are bound to have issues regardless. Nicer cars tend to require higher octane rated fuel and can't use it anyway. FWIW, the official NSW E10 facts page is decent.
