I have a very bad habit of warping or hotspotting discs in all my previous cars, and want to nip this in the budd before I start doing any damage.

change to better than factory pads and brake fluid for your driving application, replace factory discs with better ones also help.

What was so funny? My saying the Evo had fulleh hektic stretch?

There was quite a few gold quotes in there really. I've forgotten them all now though :P. But yeah mainly this:

I thought the general "I turn happy laps into angry laps" vibe was the funny bit... :D

Buy me an external mic then.

No.

Speaking of brakes - I know this is probably the wrong place to ask, but the right place for the people I'd respect the answer from most - what should I put on a V36 350GT? I have a very bad habit of warping or hotspotting discs in all my previous cars, and want to nip this in the budd before I start doing any damage.

Depends on which calipers you're running. If it's the basic ones, scrap them and replace with either Akebono or R34 bits. Akebonos are about $2k though.

Also take a look at what rotors and pads you're running. The right mix will help but if the size isn't right, you'll still get heaps of brake fade. I am the master of brake fade! :P

RDA slotted and dimpled combined with QFM or EBC pads should give you a good go.

I am planning on RDA slotted and dimpled with EBC Red Stuffs in mine...

I gotta admit... jibberish... all jibberish! :P

I have much to learn. Maybe one day I'll be able to afford to have a dedicated track day car to put my money into - and maybe then I'll understand what "RDA slotted and dimpled" means without automatically picturing some exotic condom style.

lol, thanks mate. Never heard of RDA. V35 suit V36? I can only find up to V35 discs.

Try this

my mate took the photos and gave me links to them, so I just posted them up as is... I don't know much about photos/compression but it sounds like you need faster internet? :P

should you post more dirty Evos in the future just save them on your desktop resize the pix like 1/3 and then post them up (I use photobucket or my mobile to post all my sexy photos)

Flickr should offer compression by changing the "_o.jpg" to "_z.jpg", or other letters. None of them work.

I blame your friend for not allowing Flickr to auto-compress linked photos.

Either that or he's shared his view address, not the public address.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      So I put it to 3bar (43.5psi) while priming. It stays at 43.5~ as I crank shakes slightly. Ive also tried dropping pressure to see if that changes anything. I replaced the fuel dampener because I was troubleshooting the system along with the stock FPR (swapping them one by one to rule them out). But i only got up to changing the dampener and it started running again. Injectors are stock second hand. I did a bench test on both my original ones and the secondhand ones. The second hand injectors I have in the car now spray slightly stronger than my original injectors.

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I knew Andy from about then, it did some cool stuff. By 2005/2006 era, he also implemented closed loop ignition timing tuning. In 2004 it was pretty cool, being with him when he was doing automated fast self learning tuning!

      By WR33KD · Posted

      Im No tuner but…. im running a 25det with north of 600wkw at 9000rpm e85 and water meth. G40 1150 on 32psi. Having a real built head will flow a crap ton more power but you being stuck at 7600 won’t be helping at all, throw all the boost you can and nothing will happen. Solid lifter and 9000rpm is the only way,  I have built my motor 3 times, not from engine failure but more along the lines of my failures in not understanding engine parts better, basic phrase to help, “block hold power”  “head make power”

      What's the fuel pressure while the car is cranking? Curious, why did you replace the fuel damper? What injectors are you using, are they brand new?

      "Cheap" bolt on turbo on RB25DET NEO

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      I think it's terrible value, it should be half that price IMO. And I'm known as someone who will unironically suggest the GTIII-SS on the RB26 if you have very specific requirements. The GCG RB25DET "hybrid turbo" is 1/3rd the cost of this GTIII-RS kit and sounds like it should fit with zero modifications. Talk to Hypergear as well, maybe they can do something that fits your requirements.
