Invite only in Craigieburn sounds more like "we stole the cars we're cruising around in"

Narrator: but as it turns out, they were some weird, shitty sizes.

Which should I go with GTX2863, 2530, or 2860-5
Birds replied to Trailmix's topic in Engines & Forced Induction
Aren't they referring to the intake rather than exhaust? Sounds like they could work well, you just can't oversize the turbo for the engine else end up with flow issues. -

Why do people think cash in a private sale has some mysterious pulling power lol, it's not taxed, so what else you gonna pay with...Bitcoin? -
They are generally okay points as long as it's not resting right on the sill. Not a fan of the pinch welds myself; they are often squished and rusting in these cars from being forklifted in Japan and I try not to make them worst by putting weight on them. I prefer to use the chassis or rear cradle (where it bolts onto chassis). With 4 jack stands each one will have about 350kg weight so any flat part of the chassis should be okay. Not a big deal but if you want added security you can also leave the jack under the car at some central point...

Yes Make sure you place them under points that can safely take load

Valuation of r33 gtst 1998 40th anniversary
Birds replied to Stephy P's topic in R Series (R30, R31, R32, R33, R34)
FMIC and E85 will take care of the hot days But all turbocharged cars cop a power decrease in hot weather. You'd need extreme charge cooling to counter it. -
Have a good LSD (KAAZ1.5 way), the tyres are my main problem - running 245 RSRRs which hooked up fine when new but faded off quick. That said, I ran 265 AD08Rs and had similar performance. Suspension also not ideal for drag - poly throughout and pretty stiff. But I still maintain they aren't the best RWD cars for launching.

-5 lag on RB30 I can definitely deal with, particularly if it's going to be punching well above its weight. It's not unbearable on a 26. That would fill the middle ground that make people want -10s but scared off by the lag.
-
Note the size of the rears LOL
-
I feared that might be the case. Though Garrett say suits 1.4-3 litre engines...assuming they're not talking about Group B rally cars lol...scaling that up, a pair of G25s in lightest trim could be good for a 26/30?

Huge increase since float, I wonder how long it'll last - they seem to be flooding the announcements, feels less like progress and more like trickling news of things already being worked on to artificially boost?
-
Who invested?
-
He's well into the power territory where suspension is key and things like driveshaft balance, launch control etc. become important. Chassis dynamics also have their limits given how light these cars are in the rear end. Less power would definitely see him quicker down the quarter mile; this power is simply unmanageable in a GTS-T without massive modifications. A mate recently pulled 9s in his Aristo with similar power on just MT streets, but they are quite heavy vehicles.

You're surprised about not being able to put down 500kw in a rwd Skyline? lol I struggle with 280! And you want more power :S
