Cam,

Screamer pipes are for external wastegate turbos. With a stcok turbo the best option is to get a dump with separate internal watsegate pipe. You can get these custom made quite cheap at Genie's in Myaree.

Kym,

If you don't get a 13, then it is you and not the car. rev210 sure knows how to drive, but you won't get any respect if you don't drive it yourself.

Whats wrong with my whoring, whoring, whoring threads??

There just as pointless as the other shit that gets posted. Why not point out paul instead of constantly giving me shit!! I'm sick of your comments. Obviously you have somethin against me although never meeting me, but i'd appreciate it if you just lay off the constant bitching about me, cheers.

P.s, Boostzor, cypher is good. There all top blokes.

You could do it but why? The amount of flow on the stock turbo is so small as to make an externally venting wastegate pointless. If your after wank factor then do it, will match all your stickers, haha.

hahaha

i just wasnt sure if there were any performance gains to be made or not, but seeing as each sticker adds 5hp, what would a screamer do?? at least 20hp, hahaha.

i wasnt gonna get one, just asking about them and there gains if any

Thanks Joe , that made it a nice quiet day in Whoretown.

Bet you pwptf and Hicks were beside themselves with grief over there inability to post large quantities of cr*p:D . hehehe

Cheers

Ken

Hey Ken, that is unfair, all the stuff I post here is brilliant and insightful, you just need to read between the lines.

Thanks for reopening Whoretown, give me the key I'll look after it. I'm sure with this spate of lockings we will all be on our best behaviour.

Love GTS-t VSPEC

    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
    • Those comp test results are not hideous. Whether they are accurate or not (ie, when that comp tester says 140 psi, is the real pressure120, 140 or 160?) is unknown to us. The state of the battery used to crank it over is unknown, etc etc. Many people around here would say that the absolute values and the spread are perfectly fine to just add boost and keep going. I personally would be happier with a narrower spread than that, but even the diff between 125 and 145 is not terrible. That one cylinder at 125 though, has probably copped some damage relative to the others. You should inspect the valves seeing as you've got it open. Do you know how to measure installed ring gaps? That, and an inspection of the rings themselves, is how you will determine whether they need to be replaced. If you're not good to do these things, take the block and the pistons and rings to a shop that is, and ask them for the go/no-go on them. Do the bores need a hone at all? If so, you might well be justified in getting some different pistons in order to get away from the ring supply problem. Whether you're happy to spend a lot more money right now, on more gear, rather than less money, but an amount that looks stupid given that you will only get a handful of rings in exchange for that money, is for you to decide.
    • also possibly backed up to my filler and shat down it! 🤣
    • Ok so i would love some advice here please, i purchased an R33 a few months back and its had a few mods done to the engine, its an RB25det running a Master ECU, 1200cc injectors, bigger turbo, oil cooler, oil filter relocation kit, Spool H-beam rods, acl/ross pistons. When i removed the motor from the vehicle (as its getting a respray) i thought i would compression test it and these are the following results. Cylinder 1-145psi, Cylinder 2-143psi, Cylinder 3-125psi, Cylinder 4-145psi, Cylinder 5-140psi, Cylinder 6-135psi this test was done with the motor on the ground and powering up the starter motor. I dropped the sump and found broken oil squirters on cylinder 3,5 and 6. I was told my rings are probably worn so i stripped the motor completely to get a new set of rings for it. The trouble is no one has these rings anywhere and they have to be custom made by Ross over in the states and will cost about $600+$200 delivery. My question is how can i tell if my rings are at fault and if they are still ok and is this price ok for a set of rings?
