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, 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).
