Thanks.



I half expected it to fall. I needed 3 arms so something had to balance but it slipped and got me.

Nearly done, fire is installed but need to fit the last length of flue and seal up the gland on the roof
Would assume it's 0.7 s/s crimped and swaged. I put a 1/2 inch thick flange in the roof split it down the centre and mounted it off the rafters so the top section of the flue had a mounting base to support the weight off the gyprock then a lead flashing on the roof under the tiles externally and 1/2" needle felt glass to insulate the heat from the gyprock under the flange inside. What you've done sounds great with the ventilation around the base and sides. Animal d.i.y. Show us your massive manifold and n/a exhaust.

Ran a 14.4@161kmh. Car just lays over at the top end so people just drive round me. I get out the hole fast but they run me down. Damn stock ecu and turbo lol.

Staging lanes were rammed and people cueing out the lane gates, and didnt reli wanna wait a hour to get another run

At least you can lauch it! I was crap out the holeshot and had to run everyone down. There were bugger all cars there last week on skyline night so got 5 runs in. Would be a worry to cane it with a fully cold drive train. Xy gtho, charger 6 pack and monaros all ran 14.4 stock from the factory. Pretty good at under half the litres. Show us your Nissan! Well done mate!

If you check out the rear muffler you want on the magnaflow website I can get you a price on the part number. From super cat converters in Wangara. Will have all the dimensions there. Easiest way would be to measure what you have find one that's similar and has a I/d inlet on it slot it and use a accuseal clamp. You would only have to relocate the rear hanger bracket then?

i'll take a look, but I really don't know shit about my exhaust.

i watched WM on youtube. there is 26 x 22minute episodes plus there is a movie
 
i enjoyed the series more than i expected. initial D was better but its still very good. the movie isnt bad from memory either

Started watching the Wangan. Ghost-z lol. Way better than foxtel or tele though!

Cheers, i woulda went last week bit football is my only real form of exercise lol getting it going was easy, 2.0 to the 60ft. Its not slow by any means, jist that top end lay over.

The things i'd do for a 240z.... 

My mate Daniel had one about 20 yrs ago was a sweet ride 2.4 bored to 2.6 with side drafts. Black and original. He swapped it for a cbr and a few grand cash. He wishes he had a time machiene!
Is hank away or something?
Also, any brake rotors and pads recommendation? Looking at DBA T3 slotted for fronts and T2 slotted for rears or Dixcel SD/HS (but HS is so expensive).
Pads Project Mu Bspec to go with Dixcel or Red Stuff to go with DBAs
Thoughts?

I got
Alcon advantage extreme big brake kit front/rear
6 piston monobloc calipers 365x32mm 2 piece rotors
4 piston monobloc calipers 350x32mm 2 piece rotors paired Alcon Brake pads

makes 180 back to 60kmh faster than what u get up to with max boost.
Puts a smile on everyone when thay back to normal in a flash literary i reckon 2sec
Washed the car too not much dust but whatever was there easy to clean .

    • BRUH, one of the biggest mistakes of my life..... and i've had plenty ;[)
    • @Murray_Calavera iam just considering options 🙂 of course it is very expensive so that why i ask here 🙂  @joshuaho96 I looked at that GCG hybrid(i remember looking at it few weeks before) So this is "that" hybrid where i send them my turbo and they upgrade the inside to Garrett stuff and then they send it back. It cost around 1200-1300 USD which is FAR cheaper than the HKS and it is what iam looking for(i just do not have experience like this...to send something off to "upgrade" ) @tylink720 that is like 150 USD turbo no? 😄 I dont think i have the "ease on my mind" with this kind of turbo. I just put over 7000k USD to "LINK" up my engine...dont want to blow it up with cheap turbo 😄     EDIT: https://www.cj-motor.com/gcg-turbo-charger-for-nissan-rb20det-rb25det-high?srsltid=AfmBOooVeOZ6CZ6r1AIv5m-KPaa6BvudIPJTY8LW78khkd-gQlsaCht9 I looked at this and it seems ok? It is that CGC hybrid and it costs around 1250 USD (with back shipping). Do any of you have experience with this hybrid on NEO turbo? I quickly look thru the forum/web and it seems very good.

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
