Well, the gtrs rear is the same as the -5/63 etc, I was just noting that there was an option out there that had the same flow as them except a smaller lighter wheel.

Simon may have had heat issues on the track, but he did have the response of -5s and almost 500awkws aswell, noting it would be a pretty kickass Street combo

Twins are gaids, only really works on a V6 or V8 or so when you have separate plenum a for the group of cylinders that are huffing into the turbo.

Twin scroll is where it is at, less restriction better efficiency and less piping and all the other bullshit associated with twins.

Look at Piggaz I told him over 6 years ago (not kidding) and look at him now. He's woken up to reality :)

I went built motor with a t51r [emoji16] even that was more fun

Prior to the rs's I had 2530 and they were heaps better. I bought the gtrs's just to try something different but the amount of shuffle made them absolute shit to drive with. I could not accelerate in 5 gear cruising on the freeway. I always had to drop back a gear.

Turbo is a nugget doesn't matter what engine is bolted to it's garbage much better options out there especially for the money they ask.

you just have to measure the front compressor wheel and then measure the turbine wheel.

it's the same as boosting your car to 50 psi and leaving the 2 inch exhaust on who cares what air you can get in you'll never get it out.

Got out of a stock 2.6 with a dirty old T04Z open scroll today.

Was actually quite impressed. 4500 rpm and was cracking gates, yet made 450 rwkw on unigroups dyno. Straight back onto song between gears.

Makes me upset why I've been playing in the sandpit for the last 9 years with twins.

Dry sump might be next on that list.

Bet the power delivery was fun.

It was.

Linear, quick to fall back into its stride. I would 100000% prefer that than a set of -5's (let alone a set is RS's) on a stock engine. Makes me very curious to see what a 3582R would do on the same setup, being smaller.

That was an old dinosaur garrett Z, open scroll, single gate setup.

Went in a stock 26 with 3582 once, man the power rush is hilarious.

Until fuel pump wiring fell out somehow (a donkey installed said pump) stopped me from buying that R.

Been debating whether to man up to get one for a couple of years, living close to Knox didn't help haha.

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
