RBwhatever

Why are they going for so cheap these days? Is there too many coming into the country? Heck r32 gtst's can sell for more than $11K Not even 3 years back R33's were in the $20K+ region.

Lol. Don't break my spirits man lol

Like "dude, my cars so fast, I can't even see it"

Like "totally spinning out dude"?

Heat soak is this, heat soak is that, nooo heat soak is this. My goodness. Heat soak can mean heat soak on anything. It is as it states, soaking up heat. It doesn't have to be the pod or the motor or the intercooler. Heat soak can occur on a glass bottle in the sun, heck sponges suffer heat soak in hot water. The terms should of been mentioned "heat soak of the _____".

torque steer yo

Yeah, as far as I knew, all 2JZGTE's came from factory with sequential twins.

Where do you get them from and how much? I have ultimates. They're pretty dirty pads, but like evil weevil I have black rims so it doesn't bother me. And squeal comes and goes, it squeals on rare occasions for me. It seems to be different from car to car as for the amount of squeal. Overall I'm happy with them and their performance for a road car, even though they have their downsides, they were dirt cheap.

Its funny what daniels perspective of a muscle car is. A 3, 4 or 6 cylinder car should never be considered a muscle car, no matter how fast it goes.

You make good points. As far as my knowledge served me, the chaser is faster than a gtst/25t/gtt out of the factory, and is a heavier car(not by much), but has the same displacement.

Lol man that was random

I guess that puts it in the crap downgrade category lol.

he means afm to turbo.

Standard one. It does exactly what its supposed to do. Note: Beware, bov threads are notorious for being whored in. Opinions will be given, sometimes harshly. Edit: I like that its not noisy either.

Hey fella's, just had a thought. They say the JZX100 2.5L 1JZGTE vvti single turbo model has the largest turbs of the toyota range. It has a T3 flange on it too which means it'll bolt up to a standard rb20/25 exhaust manifold. Obviously the dump flange is different to a gtst turbo, so fitting one will require a different dump and possibly changes made to the intercooler piping. So does anyone know if they're any bigger than the r33 rb25 turbo? Flow more etc? Good/crap upgrade/downgrade? It has the much hated ceramic turbine wheel, and can't safely be boosted above 14psi much like the skyline turbo's. Buts thats all I know. I'm probably answering my own question, but i suppose it comes down to if it does actually give an extra 15rwkw, is the price you pay for the turbo, dump fabrication, front pipe modification, intercooler piping modification, oil and water fittings actually worth it? .......Probably not.

Oh dear. Search is your friend. Type in "r33+ S1+ S2+ turbo+" http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/search.html

Nice. Good to see it worked

No. Simply put rhetorical Q's, what are intercoolers for? and C02 kits, and ice boxes, and cold air intakes?

I did it on mine. My boost gauge is taking its signal from the plenum so I can only conclude its pressurizing it. But i have heard of pressure being lost out of the exhaust which means they will have overlap.....I think.....enlighten me.

I forgot to add, this is if you've got a mechanical boost gauge installed. But it will pressurize your plenum to check for leaks on it also.

why the heck is there 8 threads on the same thing?

from my understanding they're the same, except KKR is oil & water cooled, JJR is oil cooled only.

Already been done before. Here's the general instructions. You can do a leak test. What you'll have to do is, 1. take your pod and AFM off. 2. use a baked bean can (full) and put it into your rubber intake pipe (assuming its still the stock one). 3. tighten up the hose clamp onto the tin creating a seal. 4. Open the throttle body with a brick on the accelerator pedal, so you can read pressure on the boost gauge. 5. take a hose that is plumbed into your intake between the turbo and the plenum or off the plenum itself. 6. Get an air compressor and pressurize the system through the hose and get someone to read the psi on the boost gauge. you only need about 5psi. you can use the compressors at the servos. 7. Listen for a leak. And use the soapy water in the spray bottle to find exactly where it is if need be. It is easier to find a boost or pressure leak using this method because the car is not running and is easier to hear and locate.

na man, youz dont need dose to go fast. My cars so fasts it brakes the soundz barriers, who needs dose when all you needz is sweet sonic boom?
