  1. I'm not racing but i'll be there to cheer you on Jon!
  2. I've got one in Labrador, just make an offer.
  3. Sorry dude, sold many moons ago.
  4. Won't the toluene cost you more than the equivalent of BP Ultimate?
  5. I've wondered about this as well. When people buy, say, a twin hks 2530 kit for their gtr, are they exactly the same turbos as you would bolt onto an sr20det? I always thought they were but i've had people try to tell me otherwise.
  6. That is the most sense i've ever heard on the topic of atmo BOVs, thanks.
  7. Car didn't have spare, jack or excess rubbish. Did have almost a full tank at the start of the day and ended up with half a tank as i wasn't sure how much i'd use, but now i know for the future. More boost is definately on the cards as soon as i get another adjustable fuel pressure regulator (and pay off my $350 speeding fine from the trip up).
  8. I had my first drag day today and while i was happy with my times they could definately use some polishing up. Did 27 runs (1 run off having the all-time Willowbank record of runs in a day ) and track temp got up above 40 degrees around 1pm which didn't help. I did a lot of 2.3-2.4 60 footers which need improvement but still didn't do terrific times with 2.0 60ft. MPH were consistently around 113-114 but times were around mid 13s. My best run is below 60ft: 1.999 330ft: 5.614 660ft: 8.533 MPH: 84.43 1000ft: 11.032 ET: 13.077 MPH: 113.38 Best MPH was 114.56 but only ran 13.663 with a 2.479 60ft. Setup was: 15psi boost 245/45/16 Falken FK451s @ 22-24psi Pineapples Lowered springs with standard shocks(?) Aside from practice, where can i improve?
  9. Had my car tuned today (mods in sig i think). Made [email protected] on a notoriously low dyno (around 300rwhp anywhere else). I was really surprised as i expected to have to 18-19psi to make that power. As a comparison, on the same dyno with the same tuner, my mate's sr20det 180sx with PFC, injectors, AFM, 2530, made the same power but needed 1.3bar. Now i just need to get an adjustable fuel reg (was running about 35psi base pressure) to squeeze out some more fuel and run higher boost.
  10. The later year r32s didn't have it on the cover as far as i've figured out.
  11. Thanks Busky, i'll see what the tuner thinks on Tues.
  12. I've got an aftermarket fuel reg but when it was installed they left the standard one plumbed in as well, but i just want my aftermarket reg to control the pressure. I'm told i can just disconnect the vacuum supply to it and that will disable it? Just want to double check before i do it.
  13. Do you still want to sell these?
  14. s15 boxes are crap! It's not uncommon with s15's around 200rwkw to have gone through 2 or 3 boxes and now most just use an s13 gearbox.
  15. I had to do it to get the engine to fit, the cooling is a bonus
  16. Have you got contact details i can give him, or can you please email [email protected] Thanks
  17. No problems with mine either. I've got 2 thermos, removed the aircon and spaced the rear of the bonnet.
  18. A mate needs an r32 (rb20det) ecu asap. Pls let me know what you've got! cheers Neil
  19. You sound like you have experience at that Sydneykid Has anyone tried different launch techniques on the track and seen what times they get? I've heard of people loading up against the handbrake but i've never tried it before.
  20. Nismo_boy's rb25dett made something around 600rwhp, no nitrous.
  21. I'll go you halves if you want to organise your freight and Midnight Racer agrees.
  22. Cheers, i'll probably start at around 18psi then drop it 2psi each time i run to see what difference it makes and find the optimal pressure for my tyres/size. Is there a chance it'll spin on the rim at that pressure?
  23. Try Tempe Tyres. Their price on the size i mentioned is only $190/tyre.
  24. Here's my response from boostcruising: I'm in exactly the same situation as you so here's my advice based on waaay too many hours of research: - 2530 will make plenty of power all the way to redline. You've picked the perfect turbo so don't worry about that. - I'm also hesitant to upgrade my injectors without really needing to. You've got the cost of injectors ($300-400), management ($1500-2000), AFM ($300) plus labour. Just make the most out of what you've got and be happy with it. - Get the car on a dyno and just run the most boost you can before totally maxing out the injectors. I'm hoping to run 1.2-1.3bar max. - Put some 225/50/16 semi-slicks on your stock rims (something like Falken RT215s which are fairly cheap) and drop the air pressure to 20psi. - Swap your coilovers for a standard set of springs and shocks for the weekend. - Install 'pineapples' (subframe bushes) to minimise axle tramp. - Lightened flywheel will definately be an advantage. I'm looking round for a twin plate clutch which come with lightened flywheel, not as light as aftermarket but better than stock. That's exactly what i'm planning for my car and hopefully with some practice and luck i can run a 12.7-12.8 (or maybe slightly better with my weight advantage over the r32).
  25. PM replied. I don't spose anyone out there just wants 2?
