Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.


Recommended Posts

512hp on 18psi, rich reckons the gearbox will let go if we wind the boost up to where I want it. Still so so much more in this thing. Torque is very interesting.

that awesome Scottie congrats.

Yeah the torque on them gboxes are very destructive.

U gonna get an aftermarket box?

daves 33 just runs standard boxes, 550kw 3L. broken a few boxes (selectors and synchros) but never actually broken a gearset in them.

dont be soft.

Is it really 'don't be soft' or just good advice from his tuner Tits?

I know I would rather be informed that the Gbox is most likely to break if pushed further rather than let the tuna go nutz and break it on the dyno

the 25 gtst box is tough and because it doesnt have 4wd traction the shock loading (ala 6000 and side step the clutch GTR launch) just results in wheel spin rather than damage to the gears unless you are running some seriously sticky rubber.

Tits is correct. Most people say the r33 gtst box is easily good for 450rwkw.

The issue in them is synchros, which die on standard power. Just be nicer when shifting and itll help save the synchros.

Other wise do as i taught the boys at the nats to do. While stationary, select second, Dial in 7000rpm or just shy of, side step the clutch. Allow smoke to ensue...

More than welcome mate, The driving was fine.

lots of looks of surprise on motorists faces

sounds like a nightmare, It will scare small children...I love it

I too thought i was getting more looks than normal.. That bloke on the dirt bike seemed quite interested

I'm happy with how it is for now and will wait to recoup some $$ before I wind the boost up. Not sure which way I want to go with aftermarket box

the number of standard boxes you can get for the cost of building a box means you could break one a year and still be ahead after 7 years (including labour)

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
