Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.

20 Boosts Mike.

At the end of the day the turbos would probably like more, but i don't want to drop the valve spring money, and then might as well do cams... and cam gears, etc.

also, made a map of united E85 locations in-case anyone's interested. Supposedly they're opening one in Ipswich soon to.

Hey Pete,

is your r tuned on Unicorn blood?

Indeed, whole point of the tuning exercise!

Took it for a quick drive up the moutain, feels a whole lot more powerful. Will have to plot it in excel or something to compare it to the old graph.

These results are really making me question what the helll my turbos actually are. 2510s shouldnt make a smidge more power than Petes on 6psi less and on 98.

How much did you pick up from the E85 Pete?

Do suspension, then do E85 but with a flex sensor later

Wise words of wisdom from sir Andy

that is what I was thinking also

I could have afforded both actually but I have been on spending spree of late and ze credit card has to come to nil to keep my levels of satisfication steady - so something has to take a back seat.

I'm keen to also see the comparison

I totally get that, I go to spend on the car car then go naahhhhh I would be happier WITH the money lol

2510's def should not be anywhere near 300kw at 14psi

That's a unique perspective... I don't get it...

I once was unlike that too, I guess it comes from being an old bastard!

Yeah, I suspect when they were overhauled they copped a high flowing also. I usually see 300rwkw at 20psi or more from others using 2510s. I was never able to run any timing either. Will be interesting to see what they are really capable of. Edited by Bunta

if that's the case those turbos are going to be EPIC to say the least

40hp, with 4psi more. but limited by the valve springs.

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
