So what's this about manual boost control vs boost tee? Considering reducing the richness of the Gloria... (by adding boost)

Knowing Nissan ECU's, it'll compensate for the increase in boost by throwing even more fuel in. Are there tunable options for the gloria? Nistune / PowerFC etc?

Boost tee / bleed valve is a manual boost controller, just a very simple/cheap one shaped like a T. You used to be able to get one by TurboTech(?) for $25 that would allow a couple extra PSI on a stock ecu vehicle and hold it very well. Bargain performance upgrade on most turbo imports from the 90s.

Until you hit rich and retard and then drive along like you've lost a few cylinders ?

I notice the bargain 32R for sale thread disappeared from the classified section...guessing the new owner wants to resell it without people knowing what it originally went for ?

Yeah youre probably right :(

Piggyback or full race car standalone with 90% of electrics not working seem to be the two options haha. Like M35, im curious at the locally made M35 modded ECUs, but dont seem to hear much about development anymore. Scotty gone AWOL from sau too

If i did try a boost tee, i would put it on a dyno probably with cms. If he cant get it going well, maybe his russian contacts can develop something. They managed to make tunes for the latest Nissan cube, which was supposed to be untunable

An guy put a 3000hp billet water jacketed funny car setup in a 57 wagon of some sort and took that to it, they would pull the belt off the Supercharger and tie a breaker bar on the snout to stop it turning, remove the manifolds blast plate and install a throttle body there for a 2nd ecu to run the car on the street. They had some issues with it though.

Now THATs an investment. Signed by Pol Wolker himself. Owned by Frankie Muniz apparently....

It's actually a pretty cool looking car, if it had smaller wheels and more low

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.  
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
