LoL, which was your car - he had plenty of cars there.

I have a pair of 25/30's but swapping them over for some 2860-7s, so if i make around 350 im a happy camper.

But yea hes pushing me to e85 and single haha doubt he wants the 9's since he has 7s and is making 355 already. He said next up is single once he gets the haltech.

9s make more power than 7s

I'm all about response. I like to sit in 4th at 100 and have near instant boost at those speeds. In Barry's 34 I had to wait a couple of secs before they did anything. It's a quick car once it gets on though.

E85 is the way to go man, even without a turbo upgrade. So much better midrange.

Lol -5s laggy must be a shit tuner...

 

Mine comes on almost instantly :)

If that was directed at me, I mean the lag as in what rpm you ramp up to full boost

I want it from 3500 max in the 26/30

I'm saying my old set up with -5s

 

A well known tuner (on this forum) tuned it and the car was a laggy pos.

 

Took it to another tuner and the car came to life, felt like it was 10 times more responsive. 

 

So I'm saying pick the right tuner :)

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      Yes I can see how that would put you off HFM, especially with the price of good quality brake fluid. From what I understand it as you say the BM50 is the standard BMC for a R32 GTR, I must admit I would like to go far a Genuine Nissan BM57, but lack of cash prevents that at present. With the price being so close between the genuine BM50 and BM57 a BM57 New it seems a better choice as you gain that 1/16 bore size with the BM57, I would be interested in how much difference you feel with the BM57 fitted. I am going to take SteveL's advice in the short term and see how much actually comes out of that proportioning valve vent and save up for the Genuine Nissan part. Thanks for clarifying the HFM failure

      Thanks mate. I just got the post inspection 1/2 done from state roads when the starter motor packed up, either that or the car alarm system is having trouble.  OEM part number 23300-AA112.

      Starter motor replacment teeth count.

      By oHBoy. · Posted

      Hi, I though I was coming to an end in finding a replacement starter motor for a rb25de neo. I came across a starter motor from Taarks and a message below stating: Direct fit. 11 Tooth count. All below part numbers have been superseded to 11 teeth. Can some body shed some light on going from 8 teeth to 11 teeth apart from 36-month / 25,000 km warranty for passenger vehicles to 12 Month Warranty. Compatible with the following Nissan part numbers: 23300-20P00 23300-20P01 23300-20P05 23300-20P10 23300-20P11 23300-AA111 23300-AA112 23300-AA300 23300-08U10 23300-08U11 23300-08U15

      J50 clock date suddenly reset to January 1

      Low battery? Maybe check capacity? I know first-hand, on BMWs if your battery drops below 80% capacity, it starts causing strange issues.

      Wheel Sizes & Offsets For Skylines

      By niZmO_Man · Posted

      8.5 +37 = should fit rear, but I think it'll hit on front. What you want is low 30s/high 20's front, mid 30's rear. That 17" screenshot you posted looks good, I'd run it on my R32 (but that's long dead now). For tyre sizes, my rule of thumb is: 8': 235, 9": 255. But that's just my opinion. Nismo sizes: 18x8.5+35/18x9.5+38 is a good starting point.
