that's good. wish I coulda paid the Ex out in 2 weeks.

Helga only cost 5k and I only borrowed 2k - so was an easy repayment :3 !

However, Rosie was 12k and had to pay that off in 6 months. (Mighty fast repayments - however, it's through Dad which is interest free. So no complaints).

If you're fine with it - I would really like to see your R34's power some time (Maybe when you're heading over to Rob's one weekend). Kind of wanting to see what power I'll be dealing with if I go through with it. I'll even take the back seat if need be haha :P

I was there last Sunday thinking you would be

take the keys it's insured :P (are you?)

:( ! And Rob invited me around on the weekend after Friday night ! When are you heading back over? I'll have to plan on going around as well.

Haha life insurence !

In short:

Personally I think they look good, they do very little, if anything (at least the ones we buy - and at our power levels)

good quality engine and gearbox mounts is where it's at

having said that I'm likely to put one for the wank factor or as I like to think the good looks.

Folks who don't know better will like them when they look in the engine bay

arse wipe rev heads will ask WTF coz they know everything. Especially if it's not the "right brand" with real heavy pressure in the damper

has anyone got any experience with engine torque dampers? Do they actually do anything or what?

If no track time/not massive torque then sploosh factor. I just bought nismo ones as i tore 1 of mine at a track day two weeks ago.

Was helga that r33 with the stuffed rails

Shiny bits.

Someone somewhere ( so it must be true :laugh: ) said they help your engine mounts live longer ?

dunno, ive got one and i still dont know.

Rosie if you want a turbo aswell to achieve that i have a rebuild Hiflow turbo by Hypergear which i will be taking off my car soon thats if you want it cheap.shaft play is still within the tolerances. HKS actuator

    • Ok guys thank you very much. GCG highflow it is then 🙂 
    • forgot to mention that when it does this it does not kill the engine, but I have not kept the pedal down long enough to let it, as I see no reason to beat up on it as its got to be something simple, small and dumb causing this.  And as soon as I let off pedal, the engine returns to its normal super smooth operation and rpms re-stabilize quickly, once below 4k. 
    • neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.
    • Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock. 
    • Yeah my thoughts are the same, a well thought out WMI setup, would be slightly ahead of just straight E85 and you're also chemically intercooling the charged air, dropping it even further. This is why you need to add so much more fuel as soon as you spray. I remember someone taking me through their set up before (Dennis, has a R33, lives around Cabramatta - no idea if he's still around on this forum). He would target AFR 10:1 on 98, then as WMI ramped on, AFR would lean back up to 11:1. Amazingly, he did this all through his PowerFC, a relay to cut power to his EBC solenoid if there was not enough line pressure on his WMI kit. And of course, if there wasn't any boost made above gate pressure, you wouldn't be accessing the load cells with heaps of timing for WMI. One downside to that rudimentary setup, once the WMI came on, the EBC would unleash the dragon, and of course all the timing. Tyres would fry lol.
