If you pop down to the new freo motor museam, you can see one of these marvels down there, rosco mcglashan the aussie world land speed record holder, has one of these, it did 5.97 down the 1/4..

yes, 5.97 on a go kart..

can't use it in Oz as the US govt considers the fuel can be used in war.. boo hiss..

      HKS stroker kit step 0/1 or HKS GTIII 2530

      Definitely the stroker kit. once you mention you have a RB28 everyone will assume you will flog them and hopefully won't start asking about support mods. Anyone will be too scared to race you, except maybe the RB30 boys

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) clogged cat

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      Just a quick update: I decided to go ahead with the de-cat for now. The exhaust shop inspected the catalytic converter and said it was in good condition. I took a look myself, and it does not appear broken nor clogged. After the de-cat, the car feels more responsive and smoother. The shop also reinstalled the exhaust temperature sensor into the de-cat pipe, and now the warning light no longer comes on, even when driving hard. The only thing that’s bugging me is the tinny, “can-like” sound the exhaust makes now (similar to having a hole in the muffler). The shop suggested that I might need to replace the muffler. I'll have to think on what to do next.

      I want to start upgrading but don't have the budget to drop 15k at once, if i was to do one first which would be better and why?

      Ceramic turbine damage to engine - what did yours do?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Yuh. It is very rare for a single turbo to throw ceramic into the engine. Quite common on GTRs. As I posted above. Mine did destroy the O2 sensor on the way out though! Plastic compressor is fine with the temperature. It's not some flimsy PE/PET/PP thermoplastic. It's a thermoset resin with reinforcing material in it (a composite, as posted by @Lithium above). The compressor never sees much more than 100°C because it's never boosting very high. If you boost it high enough to make a lot of temperature, then the turbine will depart the scene and stop the party anyway.

      From what I understand, it's a ceramic turbine and a plastic compressor (not sure how it doesn't melt then lol) I heard the series 2 r34 gtt has a metal turbine but I doubt that. @GTSBoy When you blew your standard neo turbo it didn't cause damage from memory just the turbine ended up in the cat?
