3040 bigger then 3037 right?

yeah i fink i should strengthen my box though

coz like i dun want it blowing when i start gettin up to the power output i want:)

so roughly i am after 300-400hp

do i really need to get a trust plenum for that sought of power?

adrian

Adrian,

No you don't need a Trust plenum for that, but it makes it easier to get that power. 3037 is HKS variant, they make minor adjustments to trims etc, over the garret unit. Both are around 550-600hp.

The box should be fine, how were you going to strengthen it?

See'ya:burnout:

what i meant

by strenghtening

was geta stronger box

u know like them aftermarket shifters?

but then i would rather spend the money on getting a manual conversion done ahh well auto will do for now, ah so ur using a garrett turbo smae specs as hks turbo?

but cheaper am i right?

so ur saying to build up revs in a auto, have the car in drive, and keep foot firmly on brake while reving then let gooff brake when it's time to roll?

adrian

Bully,

Seeing as your up, and I don't trust Adrian's opinion, can i ask you a serious question?

With these SAU shirts, would you like for us to organise one of each to be made so that all those interested could see what they are getting before they buy? I was thinking about one mans(L) and one womans(M), it would give people a better idea about sizes aswell.

See'ya:burnout:

Adrian, Yeah that's the best way to launch an auto.

Garret sell HKS some of there turbo's, which are only sold by HKS, therefore you cannot get a Garret turbo which has the same specs as the HKS one. But seeing as the HKS one is over $1000 more then I don't see where the real benefit is, I'd rather go for the Garret one which produces similar power.

See'ya:burnout:

troo troo good point

yeah i read bout garret providing hks turbos

and it also said who the other jap houses

got their turbos from :)

okay so the trust or subzero plenum is goin to be a 11th hour decision for me as well ;) argh i hate decisions

adrian :)

    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
    • BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
