Rear camber will be inadequate with inner and outer bushes so you will need an adjustable arm. Just Jap have Hardrace or somesuch. They seem pretty well constructed. I would look at adjustable radius rods for castor, pretty sure the R33 GTR ones are the correct part. If you have lowered the front then camber on the front might require eccentric bushes to fine tune it. (If I read your post correctly you have 0 degrees camber recommended on the front?? I have 1 degree neg on the front of mine for the street. Sway bars on the RS4S are already larger than the RS4 so the upgrades recommended by SK are not as big a jump as you think. You could try the setup as is and see if you have enough control of body roll before stumping up the cash.

At least he overtook more cars in one season at Sauber than the slow Finn did in his whole career.
-
I realise you are not a NSW member but the alloy radiators are more or less the same design so they will fit regardless of where you buy it from.
-
Lotus should have hired Kobayashi instead of the slow Finn.
-
Most of the buckchoy alloy 42mm ones will do an acceptable job. SAU NSW members get a discount on Fenix radiators and the one I installed in the S2 Stagea works perfectly and fitted with minor shroud trimming. The radiator in the GTS-t fitted without any trimming.

Taste like chicken?

According to Dan at ERD, NPC are always very conservative in their opinion of their own clutches. The carbotic will piss it in but you might find the organic will be nicer and will hang in there. -
^^lol you can lead a horse to water

Look carefully at the cat with a broomstick and/or a hole saw

GT-RS is borderline for surge hence the port shrouded housing on the compressor. I am not sure why there are no boost control issues.
-
Something funny happening there with an 80kw drop. I couldn't agree more with matching the turbine and compressors. In this case a 0.63 with good boost control is close enough but there is no doubt a 0.82 IW will be fine. Not helping the OP much now but 0.63 with the right wastegate flapper is probably worth being a test pilot.
-
Or NPC organic, drives like a normal clutch for good reason. Fat slug Stagea 275rwkw no issues for years. Certainly if you are going to abuse the clutch then you might want the carbotic but don't dismiss the NPC organic.
-
Different engine = different result so it is hard to compare IMO. Was it the same dyno? I don't think I got a low output from mine but always hard to tell unless we do a back to back swap. Certainly I would have used a Garrett made housing IF one was available in TS at the time. Then again I would have just re-used the open housing I had and saved myself a fair bit of stuffing around. I think you might be right but if there are boost control issues then the cost of changing is a pain in the arse. External gate it would be a lock.

I have an ATP twin scroll housing on my GT3076 at present. I had an open Garrett 0.82 on the GT3082. There isn't much difference between the two (ex gate) on the road. The casting of the ATP housing was ok unlike their T4 based housings (perhaps what Scotty is referring to?) but internally and externally it is a lump of metal that houses the good bits just fine. In IWG config I wouldn't stuff around with a 0.63 just in case you get boost control issues. Results for GTX3067's are like rocking horse poo on RB's so if you feel like being a test pilot the 0.63 would be the way to go. It might be ok, it might not. ps. looking forward to seeing your results

200rwkw is a fmic, 3" exhaust, boost controller, engine management and a tune away.
-
0.82 just because it has been done and doesn't lead to boost control issues.

....and the team behind them.

Gt30Iw Fitting Hardware , Whats Good/bad/ugly ?
wolverine replied to discopotato03's topic in Engines & Forced Induction
Checkbuzz either had an issue with the setup or is looking at a dyno sheet. The GT-RS is much more responsive than a GT30 based turbo but doesn't go close to have the legs...as you would expect from looking at the turbine. -

From my varied experiences with a number of different tuners there are many ways to skin a cat but the best take home message I got from Yavuz at Unigroup during a tuning workshop was pretty much what Anthony posted above....give the engine what it likes. They behave more like organic things than mechanical things. Last time on the dyno with DVSJEZ giving the Stagea a whisker more fuel at peak torque allowed it take a lot more timing and made a lot more power. The AFR that keeps the Stagea happy is different from the R33 at peak torque. Clearly there is no "right" way other than experience or patience.

Fez doing everything from the pits to make sure Massa finished behind Nando. Massa is driving for himself after all.

Ch10 delivering the ad break right in the pit window...again. Webber and Rosberg in.

Did Dan make contact with anyone at the start? I didn't see anything on the replays but he is a long way back.

...and a KERS issue

No gobsmack, no surprise.
