I am using the jaycar one with the factory solenoid.

Ive had a play around with it, and it seems to be working better now. In relation to boost, I get full boost at something like 6 grand in 2nd

In relation 4th gear, I think i hit full boost 130/140 km/hr - wasnt watching the tachometer

Had absolutely no idea what i was doing, where i was going, etc.

Hehe .... it's a bit like that the first time out isn't it !

Well done on your first trip anyhow ... next time you won't have as many nerves as you're sitting on the line about to launch, thinking of all the people watching you! :blink:

what turbos u running on your car?

Cheers guys

Okay, in answer to your question, kabab, I think its something like 0.8 bar at 4000 rpm in 3rd

Forgot to check 3000 rpm in 3rd, but im guessing it would be around the 0.3 bar mark ?

I'm runnin GARRETT GT2560R's, also known as the GT2860R's. These are Garrett replacements to the Nissan R34 N1 turbos. They are 'apparently' rated at 320hp. There are no flow maps on the garrett website, 'yet'

Jim is a pretty good tuner. The a/f ratio is so damn straight, its almost unbelievable

Big difference in spool times there.

Do you have a built engine kabab?

The gt-ss are rated at 280hp arent they? While these are 320 hp. That would make a fair bit of difference. But hell, I can understand how responsive the SS's must be :(

Hks gtss's are rated @ 320ps just check here .

I dont know about .8 bar at 3000 on a stock engine but i get full boost at 3800 in 5th gear in my stock engine .

They dont have the top end that my old N1's had though .

You can keep your stock afms with the gtss's Kris unless you want to run huge boost ( above 1.2 bar ) .

I gotta say, it's a bit of a waste to use GT-SS's if you're only going to run 1.2 bar. They won't make much more than stock turbos at that boost level.

    • Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber
    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option 
    • You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
    • I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.
    • Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
