  1. Do you need the hand controller.  Or can you just get the boost controller buy itself. ?  

    I was going to get a simploe relief valve and check valve to bring on boost faster but started reading this.  Seems a little harder though :cheers:

    thanks

    You need the hand-controller to set it up, so yes you do need one, if you could borrow one during setup then you could live without it on the road.

    But, if you want to make any adjustments then you'll need it back again, i also think you need the controller to switch between boost maps too so you'd be stuck on the one map.

  2. Preferably a RB25DET item but also interested in SR20DET or any other that is "normally closed", i.e. when the solenoid is NOT energised no air can pass through it.

    Will pick up if Adelaide seller, any interstate sellers must be willing to C.O.D.

    Cheers,

  3. What about a white R32 GTST with GTR frnnt bar with a very pretty brunette driving on North Terrace of a monring..sorry if its anyones gf:( ... even better if its her car:thumbsup:

    Also there are two R32 GTSTs next door to where i work in Thebarton.  In the 5 months ive been working here the grey one has grown an exhaust system, a Greddy sticker and now has a drift sticker:)

    Geez i just move over here 2 weeks ago and i'm already finding familiar Skyliners in the area! :D

    Nice to see your car back in the thick of it at the Calder WRX Sprint, you and Rowdy flying the R32 banner high :rofl:, I spoke to him on the day when he wanted to know how reset one of Impakt's DigiDash's but that's been the only time since I left Melbourne, did he finish off the day with some drift action like Sandown? :)

  4. Where'd you all hide?

    I just moved over here nearly 2 weeks ago, I commute FROM the City to Tech Park and i hardly see any 'lines on the streets, way more Supras, 180/200's, and Rex's.

    Anyways if you see a Blue 4DR R32 with Vic plates (you should be able to work out its me from what they say) then roll-up gimme a wave! ;)

  5. I was quoted from two different places and they are round the same I'd say you'd be looking at around about $40 each machined and extra $40each for slotted or cross-drilled.

    Another question and sorry if it's been asked already, I was looking at getting a set of DBA 4000+ rotors for an R33 although I'll be looking at around $900 a set.

    Whats the price comparison on a set of R33 GTR (2nd hand) rotors and are they much different from the GTS-T rotors in performance?

    I have a set of Bendix Ultimates (pads) going in, should they hold up for track days? or can someone recommend something better for around the same cost?

    Cost of Bendix Ultimates - $120 front $109 rear (pair)

    I seem to remember some of the guys, at the first Vic club meet, saying good things about the high-end Ferodo's but don't quote me and i don't know what they're worth.

    First off do a search, i'm sure its been discussed before, then failing that ask some of the regular track day peoples (you be able to see based on the events forums).

  6. Also try the computer reset trick, first go grab a tank full of BP Ultimate (any 98RON will do but i like BP) and take your car home, disconnect the negative from the battery, hold the brake pedal down for a min, then reconnect the battery and take her for a thrash.

    This all puts the ECU back in to self learn mode making slight adjustments to ignition.

    If you eliminate you shift habits, fuel quality, ECU reset as possible causes the next step is to check the timing.

  7. another thing to check is the voltage of your electrics while the car is running, esp. under a bit of load, if your alternator has a dodgy regulator the voltage could be spiking too high and that can kill bulbs.

    Get a mutli-meter accross the ciggy lighter socket and take it for a burn, with a passenger keeping an eye on the reading, if you have fancy data-logging one you can do it by yourself. Just don't come back saying you crashed your car while looking at the meter rather than the road! :D
