At least a bleed valve would hold boost steady :P

I'm using a Turbosmart eBoost, in case anyone can offer any solutions or suggestions...

you could give your actuator rods a few mm more preload it will help hold higher boost levels... thats what i needed to do to hold 30psi steady, my base boost is now 14 psi with zero setting on my id3 blitz controller...

well done with those power levels so far...

hope this helps....cheers...

....More than enough for track work IMHO.

Now it's time to attack the car with weight reduction :P

:werd: ... As long as you are still making good power up top, i seriously doubt even guys with 400+rwkws will be able to match you coming out of a corner and have enough of a straight to catch and overtake between corners. ;)

Yeh now you need to rip off the HICAS, throw in some Kevlar seats and goa rac'n :headspin:

great results merli thats what we expect as well.

when does the boost start,and could you post a copy of your dyno graph,as i think everyone would like to cheack it out. how many kays did you put on it before the tune and who was it that did the tune if you don't mind?

dough boy do you think it could be the exhaust housing that could be causing the boost struggle.

another thing was that on the HKS web site they state that the SS's are ment to flow as much as the 2530,320hp each i think.

i don't know how true that maybe ,but i've also seen a HKS dyno graph the a set of SS's on a 2.8L and 274deg camed car pull 750HP at the engine!

has anyone SEEN! big figures from GTSS's.

Merli again great result

by the was we are using a blitz i-D boost controller if that means anything,seems good but it hasn't seen any boost yet so hard to tell.

merli, i had a turbo smart e-boost put on my gtr last week and its working really well, turbo's are spooling faster as its helps hold the wastegates shut for longer. make sure your gate pressures are set right, they tend to spike and fluctuate a bit if set to sensitive and make sure your over boost shut down is set atleast .2 bar over your max setting... see how that goes

I bought ours of Dough boy but i'm not sure if he will get anything more from japan otherwise i would have got them of nengun!

the kit comes with 2xturbos 1xexhaust gasket and the little hoses that you need and it shows how to install them as well.

i was just at supernats and saw joe but his RX-7 into the wall not a pretty site but he's OK.

his car is stuffed.

I just heard through the grape vine that merli/andrews R33 GTR which just made 300awkw just died at the race track, i heard that it threw a main bearing. or something i hope this isn't true as i couldn't think of a better drag, than a r33 gtr with the same turbos and the same cams.

Andrew can you tell us, what happened?

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
