Rota Grid Fitment On R33
GotsWapan replied to sky017's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
About 1.5 degrees. I like to keep plenty of rubber on the road. I have 19 x 9.5 with higher offset (+35, maybe, unsure) Buddy Club P1's. I'm not much for tight fittment though. -
Rota Grid Fitment On R33
GotsWapan replied to sky017's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
Everyone always talks about sizes and offsets but the amount of camber you run is just as important for fitment. -
I didn't want to just install them becuase I liked the look. I bought the aerocatch ones becuase they are less noticeable. Didn't want hassles with police as I live in a country town. Might just go with the safety strap for now. Anywhere that sells universal ones?cheers

Are bonnet pins popular with Skylines? Curious to see if many people run them. Previous owner of my R33 mounted the bonnet catch system on the intercooler and if the weld lets go or something happens to the intercooler the bonnet doesn't have much else supporting it. I bought some Aerocatch flush mount bonnet pins but I don't know if I'm going to be able to mount them properly and if they follow the curve of the bonnet and don't stick up. I don't particularly like the round locking style ones the old fords have. Or I could run a safety lead of some description...

What? x10 +18 with just rolled guards? How much camber are you running? -
Help With Wheel Fitment Before Swap
GotsWapan replied to mr turbo's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
I run 19 x 9.5 on the back with no worries. But mines a high offset, something like +35 with 265/30/19 tyres. But I suppose you're going for more dish? -
(Vic) R32 Gtr Wheels With Semi Slicks
GotsWapan replied to Alexro's topic in For Sale (Private Car Parts and Accessories)
Willing to separate? Quite keen. -
No vibrations or issues at all with mine. I'd say its worth the stuffing around to put in I think I mounted mine on a vice somehow and gave it a few love taps. But my memory is coming back to me now. As that little ball is so tight to get on in the first place, I found it had actually expanded the brass a little and I had to sand some of the brass down so it would actually fit back into the gearbox. But safe to say I don't think it'll ever be coming out again.

Forced Performance Hta Turbos
GotsWapan replied to 34GeeTeeTee's topic in Engines & Forced Induction
That makes more sense than my original theory! No access to E85 as I'm in country Victoria. I'm keeping the "stealthish" look so I've t'eed up for it to get the genuine GT30 rear housing installed -

Lovely, thanks fellas -
Forced Performance Hta Turbos
GotsWapan replied to 34GeeTeeTee's topic in Engines & Forced Induction
Thanks, now thats been confirmed. Would you suggest the 5 bolt genuine garret IW or a 4 bolt external with wastegate setup? The only reason I ask is that I've heard sometimes the wastegate flapper on the housing sometimes need machining for higher boost. -
Forced Performance Hta Turbos

Its a full 3" similar to a JJR one. I'm sort of lost in what to do now. Cat is a stainless 3" good quality one Even Ash R31 Nismoid suggested it was a rubbish housing. The car makes no more power after 6000rpm -
Forced Performance Hta Turbos
GotsWapan replied to 34GeeTeeTee's topic in Engines & Forced Induction
RB25DET Built with Nitto/JE Pistons and rings and spool rods. All bottom end was assebled professionally with Reco'd head. Boostn Imports was selling kit a while ago that came with a Sonic/MTQ rear housing that bolts to the standard dump pipe, internally gated of course. I was silly and didn't do my research and I cheaped out and bought it. Other mods are full 3" exhaust, 600x300x80mm cooler, button clutch. ECU is a Wolf 3d V4. Fuel is with 044 and Nismo 740cc injectors. I thought I bought all the correct supporting mods but I think its the turbo holding it back. -
Forced Performance Hta Turbos

Its a GTX3076R with a 0.82 rear housing with standard dump pipe flange. I've been told they're no good for flow by a few members on here. Can you confirm or correct this please I'm aiming upwards of 280rwkw I'm only making 220rwkw at 16-18 psi -

Forced Performance Hta Turbos
GotsWapan replied to 34GeeTeeTee's topic in Engines & Forced Induction
Housing sounds good. Preparing to invest in a HTA 3076 Obviously staying low mount for a more standard appearance but wanted to know many people are going that way. Any idea what kinda of power I could push with one running 16-20psi with supporting mods? Car's a 33 GTST. I'm still running standard head gasket but previous owned had forged motor built. So I'm not sure how much boost I can push. -

In regards to anyone running the FP HTA 3076 on the standard manifold, what kind of wastegate setup would prove to be the hot option? Wastegate pipe welded onto standard manifold or welding a wastegate setup directly onto the turbine housing. Very curious. Thanks in advance. -

Whats the specs of the muffler? Inlet mainly. Possible interest in spoiler also.

Wish I could run wheels with those figures on my GTST but no one in my area does decent guard work. Thats a fair stretch on the tyres. Plenty of camber I'm guessing?
