Hmmm Nice Adam can see an 11 sec pass here soon ,Damn I gotta get mine finished :-)

I'd go the coast road though being a truck driver its the only route I'd use and did 5 times a fortnight for years, the road has been upgraded many times which have not been updated yet on whereis imo .but this time of year is always dangerous something ive learnt ,there are alot of morons that use the same roads we do and dont care about other road user's just what they wanna do and to hell with anyone else ,this dosnt just include the speeding motorist there are alot of tourists and holiday makers out there who wanna slow and look at a view or sight see and tend to forget about whats behind them and cause accidents seen it many times my advice is to take your time take plenty rest breaks and drive carefully ,be alert we all want you to get there safely cheers Peter P.S sorry for being long winded

Hi Guy's and gal's Been a while since I've updated this been busy with work and flat out on the car but painting's finished so I thought up update with couple pic's of the near finished product, engines still a ways of as its still at the machine shop they have a xmas rush on too so that might still be a while Glass hopefully will be going back in this week so then i can get stuck into putting it back together over the break .I wish all a merry xmas and happy new year Cheers Peter

what are the offsets ???

As far as I know and where I take my car is race solutions they seem to know what there talking about do a bit a skyline work and are reasonbly priced though there are other's in the penrith area I just dont know where .Have you tried a search for workshop's on this forum cheers Peter

If it falls through pm me I'LL take them need 8x16 for drag slicks Cheers Peter

where are you located

I was going to get my HKS manifold ceramic coated after I had it honed but was advised against by both james and compition coatings as there would be a chance, how ever slight, that it might peal of the inside on the smooth surfaces but the outside no worries ,So still debating on wheather to get it done Cheers Peter

Hi Guys Just a curisioty ,does anyone know if wastegate sizes can make a differance to your final hp level ,either being to big or to small .I did a search but nothing really answered the question Cheers Peter

So how's this progressing ??? any news

Yes it can be changed I did it to mine and yes, change it to a T3 wider range of turbo's out there than t4 cheers Peter

Arr ok well I'll expect dinner and flowers when I crack an 11 second run

Give it ya best shot mate I have confidence in ya

60ft times Roy get them 60footers down and a bit a traction and you'll get it and what are these cams you now have ????

take it to someone that does plastic welding

AFE Abrasive Flow Engineering in Mt Druitt did my flow honing and does most of the major company's as well but I must warn you that major company's have prioity over the little man for repeat work as he had mine for a couple month's mainly due to deadlines for company's

Hi Cubes Sorry you are correct ,learn me for not putting on my reading glasses but I have them on now , well with that information it makes for an intresting comparsion ,I'll try listing all the figures I have now here and manifolds SS high mount..SSlow mount....RB20....RB25.....rb25 extrusion honed...HKS low mount .....hks extrusion honed 1. 150.4............175.1.........159.7....159.7............175.3.................. ...170.7....................194.8 2 234.9............164.2.........162.4....162.4............172.7.................. ...166.2....................203.4 3 169.2............175.8.........160.7....160.7............179.7.................. ...178.7....................198.7 4 176.6............140.3.........150.1....150.1............164.2.................. ...183.6....................200.3 5 160.1............143.6.........149.9....149.9............155.8.................. ...182.2....................207.8 6 180.4............145.7.........173.3....173.3............180.3.................. ...184.7....................202.8 max veration .......84.5.............24.5...........23.4.....23.4..............34.8.......... .............18.5......................13 Average .......178.6...........159.35........157.45..157.45............171.35........... .......177.81..................201.3 Well on listing all these figger's and comparing with figgers listed on the comparo thread Cubes supplied and the one's I have for the standard rb20det manifold and the figgers John had for a low mount ss manifold I beleive he might have errored on listing his manifolds with the rb25det one so here for this thread I've changed them arround as two were the same ,so you know which one's I swiched they are the sslow mount and the rb25 manifolds the rb25 reading the same as the rb20 now as I have both here now and have just measured them and can find no differances I've listed them on my finding's as the same so ner anyway makes for an intersting comparo cheers Peter

Hi Cubes Thank you, Yes I know ,there for the gtr manifolds I think you'll find ,It does indicate the gains that can be had though as with the hks be4 and after in my above thread ^^^^ show's Cheers Peter

Discopotato03 is correct when my hks manifold was done it honed into one of the stud holes for the turbo .As the manifold was made for the earlier t4 style of flange I had it drilled and taped for the t3 flange ,it was one of the older t4 stud holes that had been holed it was a matter of removing the turbo again and inserting a grub screw, this time an easy fix but it highlights what can happen if to much is taken out. Cheers Peter

I have found it easier when removing a manifold to just undo the manifold leaving the turbo bolted on unbolt the oil and water lines and lift the manifold and turbo out together with my hks manifold I usually unbolt the engine mount under the manifold jack the engine up a little as well ,makes it a little heaver when removing but this has always worked well for me cheers Peter

I post this morning in the unique autosports manifold thread which shows the b4 and after differances of flow honing a hks cast manifold cheers Peter

I'd go with the extrusion hone

I've found from experance that by trying to short cut doing something on an engine instead of doing it properly tends to make the job twice as long and often in the end you will have to do it anyway just waste time trying to short cut it ,but there are always exceptions to the rule good luck cheers Peter You learn as you get older "do it once do it properly "
