Trailers, mmm I think we will build one, see exact costing and go from there. I only want a very very basic one. No tyre rack etc. Will be around end of the year I reckon before we look at building on

Looks like I've got a VG20DET turbo coming, its a mild upgrade for the old RB20 - bigger than an RB20DET turbo, a little smaller than an RB25DET one.

If I can finalise my campus loan soon it might get more interesting, lol.

I have just gone for a Garrett GT30/40

Won't go in the car until about August (Tax return time :P)

With S/S High Mount

Probably a Tial Wastegate

Get it tuned at pro and see how the injectors hold up.

Predictions of approx 250 at the wheels on 14-15 psi.

Should be fun in a HR31

Bit quiet on the home front eh? Well I should be recieving a new front driveshaft for my gts4, cant wait to get back in amongst it :laugh:

Although, had a bad day yesterday - came back to my car and some jerk had dinged it, on the good side too - previosly some filthy criminal tried to nick the wing with a screwdriver. The disrespect just makes me mad, we spend so much time and effort on our machines and then these little -Grr, insert profanity- decide that they would like to ruin something that isnt thiers. Bring back national service I say, ship the little buggers to Iraq.

Sorry for the rant (again) just a bit sick of this sort of shite.

I'll leave it alone for a while once this is done, its taken me long enough :laugh: Just mild upgrade for the little 2 litre, rb25 turbo, malpassi fuel reg, Trust 3" exhaust, apexi avcr, apexi safc 2, mines ecu, still on the *cough*factory intercooler*cough* hopefully will be around 160+rwkw once tuned on mild boost setting.

Have just done my timing belt, water pump, tensioner and idler bearings, painted my timing belt cover :( and just fitted an R34 turbo (28,000km's) last night...

I will be fitting my GTR injectors and getting a Dump/Front pipe and a Z32 AFM very soon... (The will get it retuned by Dr Drift).

Also going to do a plug and oil change... think this stuff is too thick.

I just got a new dump pipe from xrated so will be fitting that tomorrow! Now I just need to get the AFM and injector resistor pack!

I am going to wait for sam to come back down though, worth the wait to save the $$... would even be cheper to use someone elses dyno and pay for his flight! :dry:

Well my car was stolen last saturday night and they did some damage in the process.

I was lucky that they only got 100 odd metres down the road before being chased off by mr plod.

But the 2 damaged locks, the broken ignition barrel, broken rear quarter window and some other bits and piece's put the rebuild even further behind than what i was.

Have spoken to a certain Dr that is going to look into a new motor package for me which should see me back out and about (just have to come up with the cash) and also get that certain Dr behind the wheel at the next DrifTas event.

So i'll be hunting down some parts and also calling in a few favours in the next couple of months so i can hear that sweet sweet sound of limiter and gate :D

Other than that im looking for a job so if anyone can help me out let me know :D

what kind of work are you after B?

Sux to hear about the car, I hope (as I am sure you do too) to see it on the road soon!

I send the D.O.C and email but didn't get a reply yet! Am I right when I hear he may be back down soon and could possibly do a tune or two?

oh, and I just fitted an aftermarket dump pipe to my car tonight!! (ordered it off Justin 'XRATED')

goes well but won't be able to feel the full potential of it until I get new coils (sh*ts itself past 4g's!)

ANYTHING really mate.

something that will pay the bills and i wont want to shoot myself out of bordem at the end of the day :D

Sam and Nick are flat out at the moment with a fair bit on.

Sam is planning on coming back down but not 100% sure about the dyno as yet.

Chance's of using another dyno are pretty slim after talking to a few poeple.

But both DrifTas and i belive Kamikaze are looking at doing something with Sam.

Either way there will be another tuning weekend in the next few months :D

Ha, well you won't want anything at my work if you don't want to have to shoot yourself... admin work is pretty boaring and the IT dept it all full :) getting sick of that too though! (there could be an opening soonish... shhhhhh ;) )

I can't wait for a retune!!!! All I need now are coilpacks, AFM and injector resistor pack!

Well after the car was stolen i have it home and have started to clean up the mess.

I need to get a few things (new locks and rear 1/4 and fix the ignition barrel) and pull the flat battery out charge so i have a working alarm again!!!

Once i clean everything up i will start pulling everything off/out to get ready for a new motor.

Then comes the decision to keep the car or sell and start with something else (new bike :()

I will have a few things for sale again mostly to suit R32 but will have both my turbo's and my new 2 way up for grabs as well.

Cheers GMB

      Cas issue

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.

      R34 4 door side skirt identification

      By nxh · Posted

      Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.

      boost source Size Garrett gt28 gen2

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
