  1. Is this any help?
  2. $50k and all is well for Renault as if they were gonna exclude Gonzo from Valencia.
  3. do you sit on street corners playing the shell game??
  4. UAS in Sydney have braking ducts and I am negotiating to start a group buy any day now. pm me if you are interested and i will add you to the list for when it opens.
  5. Great to hear Andy. Mikey is going to help me fit something to the yellow pig soon....when they are in stock so if you want to come over and share a beer and wave your hands around and point while I flounder around you are more than welcome.
  6. http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Po...ecret++squirrel ask ye shall receive
  7. traction control. feed the powerfc 3.6 to 3.7 volts to pin 51 and the checklight will go.
  8. Is it a silly question to ask whether you have checked the spring in the actuator?
  9. the GT2876 really is pig. if you want 250rwkw then the GCG Hi-Flow, GT3071 (with a 0.82 garrett housing), or HKS GT-RS put you right into the zone as they are all around the 420-450hp compressor mark. The GCG unit is the easiest option as it bolts directly back onto the stock gear, the HKS GT-RS comes in kit form and bolts back into the stock location. Any other option will require a new dump, lines and probably intake mods. Once you have decent engine management PowerFC, ViPEC or other you will be able to spool any of these turbos with no issue. If you are happy with a bush bearing then Hypergear is making some cheap bolt ons too.
  10. a GT2876 is really not a good combo. you have a 500hp compressor bolted to a relatively tiny turbine (something in the order of a 53mm). the garrett version usually isn't a T3 footprint. this turbo will absolutely be choked by the relatively tiny turbine. A GT3071 with a proper 60mm turbine shouldn't be laggy at all with good tuning and should put out around 450hp (flywheel) depending on the compressor trim. If this is a bitza turbo in a nissan housing then it is harder to guess at the results. A GCG hi-flow more or less uses a 450hp compressor wheel but a smaller turbine wheel and these obviously work quite well as a cheap bolt on (bear in mind the turbine can choke this and its actual output might be a bit lower) A HKS GT-RS is a GT2871 with a HKS T3 turbine housing. 53mm turbine, 71mm compressor (52 trim) A HKS 2835ProS 56mm turbine, 71mm compressor (56 trim). What are you aiming for with your car and what engine management do you have?
  11. given the price, repair it..... .....or like Rob says time to remove it. i imagine you will only need to buy a lock bar and and a few workshop supplies to get it sorted.
  12. I'm pretty sure we have R33 GTR adjustable radius rods on our S2.
  13. a. ejector seat b. fwd rockets c. aft rockets d. minigun e. toggle hellfire f. armour plated wheel covers g. road tacks h. flame thrower i. sunroof j. cappucino and cup holder activator
  14. holy 5 year old thread bumpage..... ......especially when it was just to talk smack lol
  15. i see search isn't working properly so i will give you the answer to the question that was in that link that is stickied on forced induction. i am guessing you are located in the UK but since you haven't said i don't know so it may affect what you choose. most people here looking for a mild upgrade go for a hi-flowed turbo, which involves rebuilding the factory turbo with new internals that like the name implies flows more. they can be ball bearing or bush bearing each with its pro's and con's. GCG make probably the most used ball bearing hi-flow for around $1850 or one our site traders Hypergear make bush bearing versions for around $800. HKS turbos generally cost a lot more but are generally nice bits of kit.
  16. http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Fo...ick-t66556.html click here and start reading. lots of information is at your fingertips if you search the forums.
  17. not if you want to fit a JB clutch..... ....JB will be pretty pedantic about checking what fly wheel is going to be used.
  18. nistune(ecu) and about 12psi on the stock turbo and you will be around 200rwkw +/- 10kw you can get to the power level you want (or close enough) with the stock SMIC but fitting a FMIC at this stage will give you a little more capability possibly with a slight loss of response. if you are going to a larger turbo then the it is a pretty simple equation to go a larger IC.
  19. You could either wring the neck of a GT3071 (with a 0.82 rear housing) or GT3076 or perhaps something in between like discopotato 03 just ordered ie 52 trim 76mm. If you have a split manifold you could order a divided housing from ATP which might improve response slightly and would suit any of these options.
  20. stick your HKS manifold on it while you are swapping the turbo (& replacing the manifold studs that will be broken or about to break) and you will have a sweet set up.
  21. O2 sensor with read about 0.00V to 0.02V at start up and stay that way till it heats up pver several minutes so it should have no effect on cold start.
  22. a 71mm compressor (depending on trim) would be good for between 400-450hp.
  23. It looks more like a GT2871 or thereabouts. Did they give you some idea of the hp potential of the compressor.
