  1. no, some other internal gated turbo.
  2. there isnt.
  3. Hey micko, check out the pic of the turbo in forced induction
  4. If bams back how come he isnt on whoring?
  5. I dont mind stones hitting my front bar as I am ditching that. BUt when they crakc my windscreen or take the paint off my bonnet or roof it shits me.
  6. Well I thought I got it for a bargain but then we pulled the exhaust housing off and found the engine it'd be on before (mazda rx3) let an apex seal go and it went through the exhaust housing and shattered the exhaust wheel. I cant go into it a great deal as I am going through ACCC with the shop that sold it but to repair it completely will cost and arm and a leg as trust dont sell spare wheels. So we've tried a compromise and we will see how it goes, if it works great and makes max boost before 3500rpm I'll be happy. But as I said it came off a rotary and they flow a lot more gas hence the bigger exhaust housing, so it could be a lag monster yet. btw: I bought it without the wastegate, the wastegate I bought new and was another $650 or so.
  7. If the weather is good I'm up for an arvo cruise... not in the hills please, I have enough stone chips in my window
  8. http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/sh...&threadid=21468 pic of the turbo and wastegate. Yup should be going on tomorrow and exhaust done on wednesday and dyno wednesday night. I have heard simular turbo made 270+kw @ rear wheels... I know I wont get anywhere near this as I wont be running high boost, but thats a nice figure
  9. hello
  10. evening
  11. Since buying the turbo I have found out it uses a 16cm exhaust housing, which is quite large. We will fit it as is but if it is laggy I'll look into a smaller exhaust housing and depending on how much it is I might go down that path. Here is a picture of the turbo and wastegate together, as you can see the wastegate has been attached to the exhaust housing. It will be fitted tomorrow and my dump+front pipe remade to suit the external wastegate on wednesday all going well should be at the dyno wednesday night. I'll post the graph once its done and some installed pics as well.
  12. Do a search for trust intercooler on the WA forums and you'll find a thread on mine, should look the same except for the pipes going into the engine the other way, mine returns underneath and back in through the original holes. Good core and great price.
  13. Couple more sleeps till turbo time, hehe
  14. Think I'll hit the sack guys... cya tomorrow.
  15. I had a play with the sbc today paul, worked out how to increase the peak warning setting
  16. Evening ken, micko, paul

  18. I just washed the car cos it was still covered in red dirt from 2 weekends ago when we went down south... probably rain now
  19. micko

  21. RAC were more than happy to insure my fmic and boost controller, HBF would void my cover if I went with them.
  22. http://www.prestigemotorsport.com.au/au/ne...items=20&page=1 check out parts 1 and 2 for the 26th of july... mmm r32 gtr, looks pretty damn clean. mmm r34 gtr Anyway really off to bed now, got caught up talking to someone about trust turbo's.
  23. Yeah I enjoy life too much.
  24. I've been to about 200km/hr but havent been beyond that. Its too hairy on the road, only need someone to pull out infront of you or something and its all over.
