justin911 Posted June 26, 2005 Share Posted June 26, 2005 i remember reading in that little nissan service book you get (i cant find it now) a stock r33 gtst doesnt evan need a turbo timer @ 7psi unless your doing like 200km that drive. Im pretty sure it was something along those lines... Turbo timers arent cool anyways you get a bit sick of peoples "you left your car on you idiot" comments Was funny a friend of mine got an intercooler for his n/a supra... "it wasnt to look cool" aparantly.. it was to "weigh the front down" Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/77299-turbo-timers/page/2/#findComment-1430455 Share on other sites More sharing options...
scathing Posted June 26, 2005 Share Posted June 26, 2005 Because you want to decrease a Supra's already ponderous handling, while worsening its already mediocre power / weight.

paulr33 Posted June 26, 2005 Share Posted June 26, 2005 it wouldnt matter if u were running it for 3 hours or 10 minutes. heat is heat, the components get hot from running. if run for an hour at 7psi highway or run at 12psi city driving for 15 minutes they are probably going to be as hot as each, wouldnt be a mssive difference between the two. try and let it idle for 30 seconds should be plently Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/77299-turbo-timers/page/2/#findComment-1430712 Share on other sites More sharing options...

NA_R33 Posted June 27, 2005 Share Posted June 27, 2005 haha, theres no push rods in my puppy!! just 4 variable timed overhead cams, works better than VTEC, cause u actually get a considerable power increase when they do their thing, not like a hondas where all that happens is u get a change of exhaust note.
