Blitz has a set of full carbon ones(not the cheap ones) for $510

Hi, ive got a set of r33/r34 gtr S-tune coilover suspension, as new.Remote resevoir, very high quality. Pickup from Sydney, or will post at buyers expense, will post up pics 2morrow. PS the missus says they're awesome Cost $1670+post from nengun, sell for $1050 Now also have an r32 GTR bootlid in gunmetal with spoiler, immaculate, spoiler in very good condition $300

but you will only need one, as you can only put ot on the exhaust cam.

Sorry to burat your bubble, bet there are at least two of us on here with NEO rb30's, and despite common misconception, they dont have "Variable"VVt, its just the same as the r33, just with solid lifters.

The only advantage of a 33 motor is age, and the better crank that reduces the load on the oil pump

It could be fitted, although there are heaps better cdi units on the market, that are a true multi spark CDI

Warpspeed, i would be very interested in knowing some more about the VNT turbo's that you have played with. I spoke to garrett australia about these a year ago, and they told me that they had not yet reached the development level for high performnce petrol engines, as they could not get the VNT to be reliable with the ex temps. Why is there a problem with also runnung a wastegate if necessary, or alternatively as a diesel runs, just use a tuned size exhaust housing, and then use the vnt to spool it up nice and early. Have you considered the possibility that the overall size of the ex area was too small and thats why the top end sucked? I havent looked into these 100% yet, due to the lack of range of availability, but i can say for sure the vehicles i have driven with VNT turbo's(BMW X5 and Merc 4wd diesel thing)i have been incredably impressed with given their small capacity diesel motor. I believe these have totally revoloutinised diesels along with single rail direct injection. I believe the ideal turbo for a petrol engined car, would have VNT, possibly a wastegate if necessary, and definately anti surge ports to reduce the surge caused by being able to deliver such high pressure ratios at small flow rates. Imagine a t04z that could spool up as though it had a 0.4 exhaust housing, and then open up to a 1.2 exhaust housing progressively. The only electronic control that i believe would possibly be wanted is to open up the housing when under a certian throttle to reduce ex backpressure when at light/mid throttle, to improve drivability and fuel economy. Maybe VNT isnt the answer, but maybe the sliding partition steup that Holset are also diong would work just as well with better life expectancy. I believe that the reason these turbos aren't on drag cars is because they arent needed, it it easy to spool up enormous turbos these days with electronics, anti lag, high stalls and launch control, but how drivable is a 9 second drag car in terms of lag and rpm/boost threshold, who cares, thats not what its designed for. As for the technology being around for 20 years, not that i dont believe you, but 20 years ago, manufacturers couldnt keep ex housings in 1 piece on pertol cars let alone something this complex, and when they work so well on diesels, why have they only been fitted for the last 3 years? These really are questions i would like answers to, im not trying to be a smart arse, and if you could point me in the direction of where to find imfo about this it would be much appreciated. end rant

Anypics of the methanol setup?

I believe in this case, the gains were mostly due to the "thick"gasket(up to 5cm thick) increasing plenum volume and reducing flow discrepencies between the cylinders, and or increasing runner length

Has anyone seen the wastegate setup on an evo4-9 turbo, they are split pulse, but i dont recall the wastegate setup. PS and the turbo's are quite cheap second hand and can be highflowed to reasonable power levels.

Autronic SM-4 FTW.

BD4's in gladesville tune them.

I was referring to evo4 on.

Could everyone who has paid a deosit and not got it back please PM me, ill try to cahse him up later this week, thanks

rb26 pistons aren't really suitable for the conversion, as to get the correct squish, you end up with too much compression. 2mm deck is fine, and i would recommend 9:1 for a street car, just run 98 octane, and it will be a torque machine, just need to get the correct pistons, although you could machine down the crowns, just need to check the thickness, as you will need to take a fair bit off. SK has played with the diesel cranks, and he doesn't recommend them, but it would give an awesme rod/stroke ratio.

Thays what i was planning on doing.

My 6.7l garret t05 truck has a split pulse manifold, and turbo, but the runners arent equal length by any stretch of the imagination, its just like a log manifold., and as far as i know the new trucks aren't any better, they just use wastegates.

O2 feedback is only a fuel trim, of 2 or 3%, and only works in certain load cells. It also doesn't self learn, as the computer wont lean out the whole fuel map, just every time it goes into closed loop, which is mainly in running temp, cruise conditions it will try to pull fuel out, but it cant trim anywhere near enough out to compensate for bigger injectors

Or you could just get your turbo rebuilt with steel wheel, for less than $1000, speak to slide, but i think it comes to about $700

Or it could have two flaps(aka serV rx-7) I would be very intersted in a comparison in the future when i look at replacing my HKS t45s with some newer technology. btw the t45s is split pulse but laggy as, i hope due to the old school technology, although its only a .90 ex housing. The HKS manifold that i (and im assuming disco)am using is cast, and not equal length i believe, although the two "groups" of cylinders seem to be close(im going off memory here, i haven't seen it in 2 years), would that significantly reduce the effect? Also do you think there would be a possibility of keeping the exhaust housing and fitting some newer technology in the housing? Im hoping for 450rwkw with an rb31 and 272deg 10.2mm lift cams with custom plenum, ported head and maybe WM injection.

It will be fine

Thanks heaps spoolup, ive had 2 ebay sellers tell me that all rb25's have the same springs, geez i wish people knew what they are selling

The standard computer must have been remapped

Brake cleaner, contact cleaner or carby cleaner, but wouldn't recommend degreaser, as it can leave i film of oil/residue.

As the topic says, does anyone know if r32 gtr hks springs will fit an r34 neo?
