Yeah... I would have if the second turbo wasn't dead... :rofl:

I got US spec Turbo's ordered at the moment... Once I have those on I will represent. :rofl:

I had a quick look at the Weight of the IS300... I think it is around 1450GK... is that right?

Na, mine is the IS200, 1380kg. have run 13.4 on standard boost, but havent run it since, with 13psi.

US Spec turbs, nice, a mate had them on his car for a while, made close to 300rwkw, but also had the US 550's, and 1 bar. Good upgrade.

That's not too bad... How did you find it around the bends with that engine in the front?

I guess the injectors is another thing I should look at while I am gettign the Turbo's switched and all... I am getting them from a guy who owns a dealership in teh US so I can get everything else I need too.. :rofl:

thanks shane :rofl:  good to see you guys had fun :rofl:  i haven't seen paul in ages!!  whats he driving around in now?!

Moana, he was in the little silver civic, says its a better car to drive than the GTR :kick: hahaha.

Shonen, car looks awesome, but Ben in the White Auto GTt, seems to go well against me...hmmm..

Shaolin, the car is awesome around the twisties, the motor does weigh a bit more, but i hvae coilovers, and upgraded sways etc to compenstate. When you upgrade the injectors, ill be interested in your 440's !! haha

Alright... If I get them I will let you know...

Did you ever look at putting the Lexus V8 from the SC400 in there??

I did, and it has been done before, but it would limit performance. It would sound real good, go well, but you know what its like, your always after more. With a 1J, you can do much more. Unless of course, twin turboing the V8 haha, but its all about $$. I originally wanted a 2JZ, but costs of the 2j+box, is too exp for me, plus the driveline wouldnt last ver long hehe.

well like I said I was only running low boost.....if I ran 0.9bar which is what the car is tuned for than might have been a different story :rofl:  

hmm interesting....I gotta run ben one day......last time I checked I think I had a few more mods than him.....

whats 0.7 bar? I was running 10psi.

I was talking about TTing the V8... :rofl:

That would be the ultimate... I would even do that to the Supra as I am pretty sure it is a lighter engine and can take the Turbo's well... :rofl:

    • What are we supposed to be seeing in the photo of the steering angle sensor? The outer housing doesn't turn, right? All the action is on the inside. The real test here is whether or not your car has had the steering put back together by a butcher. When the steering is centred (and we're not caring about the wheel too much here, we're talking about the front wheels, parallel, facing front) then you should have an absolutely even number of turns from centre to left lock and centre to right lock. If there is any difference at all then perhaps the thing has been put back together wrongly, either the steering wheel put on one spline (or more!) off, and the alignment bodged to straighteb the wheel, or the opposite where something silly was done underneath and the wheel put back on crooked to compensate. Nut there isn't actually much evidence that you have such a problem anyway. It is something you can easily measure and test for to find out though. My money is still on the HICAS CU not driving the PS solenoid with the proper PWM signal required to lighten the load at lower speed. If it were me, I would be putting either a multimeter or oscilloscope onto the solenoid terminals and taking it for a drive, looking for the voltage to change. The PWM signal is 0v, 12V, 0V, 12v with ...obviously...modulated pulse width. You should see that as an average voltage somewhere between 0V and 12V, and it should vary with speed. An handheld oscilloscope would be the better tool for this, because they are definitely good enough but there's no telling if any cheap shit multimeter that people have lying around are good enough. You can also directly interfere with the solenoid. If you wire up a little voltage divider with variable resistor on it, and hook the PS solenoid direct to 12V through that, you can manually adjust the voltage to the solenoid and you should be able to make it go ligheter and heavier. If you cannot, then the problem is either the solenoid itself dead, or your description of the steering being "tight" (which I have just been assuming you mean "heavy") could be that you have a mechanical problem in the steering and there is heaps of resistance to movement.
    • Little update  I have shimmed the solenoid on the rack today following Keep it Reets video on YouTube. However my steering is still tight. I have this showing on Nisscan, my steering angle sensor was the closest to 0 degrees (I could get it to 0 degrees by small little tweaks, but the angle was way off centre? I can't figure this out for the life of me. I get no faults through Nisscan. 
    • The BES920 is like the Toyota Camrys of coffee machines. E61 group head is cool, however the time requirements for home use makes it less desirable. The Toyota Camry coffee machine runs twin boilers and also PID temp control, some say it produces coffees as good as an E61 group head machine.
    • And yes with a full tank it will hit limiter free revving or driving 6B6CDF6E-4094-426D-A9CB-6C553475FE36.mp4
    • One way of putting the fuel surge idea to rest, is that even when in neutral/clutch in or free revving it still has the same issue, it can’t even get to limiter (7800) so to me that says it can’t be g force, I’m not trying to argue I just want to find the f&$king issue 😡
