That looks hot, Burns. The P1's set it off nicely.

Is your FMIC a cross-flow design one, where the return pipe goes back towards the passenger side to use the standard holes under where the air-box would be? If so, is the return pipe behind or under the core (can't really tell in the photos)? Where did you get the cooler from and roughly how much was it?

Yep it's a Dayz with a bit cut out for the intercooler.

It's just a R33 brake cylinder stopper.

The return pipe is behind the core and it uses the stock holes but they have been enlarged for the bigger pipes.

It came with the car so I don't know what cost is. It's a Blitz kit.

It took 4 months to get the parts and another month at the panel beaters but the outcome is fantastic.

Being backed into by a Prado wasn’t that bad a thing after all.

:ermm:

This (the blue thing I outlined in the photo) is the brake cylinder stopper - it attaches at one end to your strut tower, and on the other side to the end of your brake master cylinder to stop/reduce firewall flexing when you're hard on the brakes.

Less flex in the firewall means better and more consistent braking, and a more consistent pedal feel.

      Help Understand GTT Boost Setup

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      @Dose Pipe Sutututu I would argue that >300rwkW inevitably comes only with a raised boost threshold that makes it more likely to get beaten by the family SUV with a 95 speed auto transmission and TD torque. Ditto the traction problems when it finally does come on boost. I used to love my stock turbo. A little flex of the ankle and it made a sweet little whistle and you had torque immediately. It wasn't fast fast, but it was more likely to win the "squirt to make the gap" type races that actually matter for a street car. I think >300 rwkW requires more capacity than an RB25 can offer (again, for street driving). I have enough experience with driving 2JZs in that space to know that they are much easier to pedal around in than a 25. I keep thinking Greg did the right thing putting a V8 is his car. I can't see myself not having a turbo - but I'd really like a big engine torque curve.

      This is kinda how I see it also. Could drill down then into sub tags.

      Let's be honest here @GTSBoy 250kW in a GTS-t would easily get walked by my a family SUV these days. 300kW is the sweet spot, fast enough to keep up with the modern German cars (not from a stand still), fun enough and the motor still can be stock/unopened. Realistically, 400kW is a good number. It's enough to give you cold sweats, still be very street able in terms of the power band (provided you're not an idiot and go single scroll and delete VCT) and only needs a very basic rebuild (or stock if you have a NEO motor). Anything more, it starts to be stupid.

      Deals off now apparently https://www.abc.net.au/news/2025-02-13/honda-and-nissan-say-merger-talks-called-off/104934438 Hopefully Nissan closes up soon and the family X-Trail becomes a classic too!

      The west where I live is swarming with birds, not wrong they are bloody loud. In the meantime, do a DIY killswitch - $5 worth of things from jaycar, easy as too. The west is copping it with car theft lately, especially the big shopping centres.
