Silver Power Fc Hand Controller
swanny180 replied to Chi100188's topic in Engines & Forced Induction
Hahaha was about to say, Im sure it wouldnt be too hard to make one silver with a spray can... -
Hi Mitch, Mine was only around $80 (reduced from $120). To be honest, for around that much you really cant go wrong. As I bought it from a large motorbike store, they had around 5 or 6 different models in a price bracket ranging from $70 to around $150 if I recall correctly. So yeah, basically I tried all of them on and went with the one that gave me the best fit (and it just so happened to be very reasonably priced ) All in all, I think its money very well spent. Go to a handful of track days and its paid for itself anyway considering you'd be looking at $20 or so to hire one. And this way you have one that you already know fits well, that you know the history of (ie it hasnt been dropped or abused by other people who've hired it), and you don't need to worry about finding one to borrow each time you go. Hope that helps mate

One quick question regarding prep for track days: Is it worth removing the backing plates behind the brake discs to aid cooling? This is for a relatively stock R33 GTST going to Wakefield by the way. (Also going to be putting in new Lucas pads and bleeding with some Motul 5.1)

Volk TE37 or CE28Ns would both be lightweight options that Id say would be available in those sizes... Only problem would be finding a set that is in that size and is *also* the right stud pattern...
-
Maybe have a search for pics of a stock R34 GTRs wheel, and see if you can tell how much clearance there is between the bigger 18' rims and if you think thered be room behind 17s... As for caliper clearance, you seem to have a fair bit with those rims so I doubt there would be a problem

swanny180 replied to SysLink67's topic in Engines & Forced Induction
Yeah theyd be a little small wouldnt they? Two SR20 T25 or T28s would be a better choice, no? Not sure if theyd fit but... -
+1 for the continentals. Putting a pair on the front of my new rims tomorrow Very impressed with them on my Dad's Golf GTI

Repaired how? You mean the cores? Or if a wheel falls off? Or if you scrape the housing on something?

To Hi-flow Or Not To Hi_flow
swanny180 replied to nuclear_skyline's topic in Engines & Forced Induction
What do you want out of the car? Whats it used for, street, track, drags, drift, a mix/combination? Do you have a power goal that the turbo will need to flow? What sort of response are you after?
