Roy, you know you're welcome to come and skid mine anytime up here! Sunday 21st of this month... get a flight, come drive Lakeside.

I beleive I can Savman. And Rex is super quick! I reckon I'll be right in the rain, but if it's dry, that thing has some serious pace! 380hp and about 1100kg will do that :)

I have just the thing for your car to make that power. Internals are free, that is all i keep hearing from Tarmac rally guys :rofl:

yes troy, internals are only free if you're losing dumby. if you're winning almost nothing on your car will be not under protest...

BTW, is it just the pics or the wheel nut to wheel fitment a bit howsitgoing? could be worth getting some different nuts that fit the taper of the wheels holes a bit better. :)

car looks sweet as, and nice choice of seat... (yes I run the same :) )

Yes Troy, as I've discussed with you elsewhere about the cheating phenomenon, it's just not my style. I'd rather wax the Porshes in a true sh*tter :)

The wheel nuts are fine, it's just the picture, no interference there as all. I'm saving for a set of RAYS nuts though.... I couldn't even find any all the same colour! :)

The seats are the best ever... it came with them and I was stoked. Having used them for the last two Targas, spending six solid days in them, I know that are simply the most comfortable and supportive seat I've ever tried.

Thanks for your nice comments too :)

Thanks Chris :dry:

Very easy to do, just rivetted to the original.

I find it help in situations where for whatever reason you may get a long brake pedal, there's far less chance of going for a heel/toe and getting under the accel pedal.

Thanks for that!

Cheers!

MPC used to look after my car when I kept it in Melbourne. I saw a few cars there they look after that had flocked dashs. Maybe they're the flocking experts? I'll give the boys a bell and see where you can get a good flocking.

      R32gtr sputtering and stalling

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      I'm aware, but unless you're actually seeing the voltage the ECU is seeing and you're able to verify the sensors are actually working I find it hard to just trust STFT/LTFT. I will say, logging the ECU comes naturally to me because it's one of the lowest effort methods of diagnosis and I do similar things in my day job all the time. Staring at 20+ charts looking for something that isn't quite right isn't for everyone. NDS1 allows you to log almost everything so that's normally what I do and then sort out the data later.

      Neil's R33 Gts-t Build

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Silly question, as I bet you've checked already, but the motor turns over by hand yes? I suspect Neil has a spare starter, though if not, I believe I have a spare R33 (or two) starter.

      NPboosted manifold fitting purpose

      By Duncan · Posted

      Yeah just run one of those posts to the Link like GTSBoy said. From google it looks like a "mishimoto boost controller" is a manual boost controller. Since you already have the link just buy any MAC valve and plumb it in where the mishimoto is now. Wires to the solenoid should come from the Link's / standard loom boost control wiring (I guess you have an r32, not sure if it is gtst or gtr, if it is GTR where is a 2 pin connector near the engine bay fuse box/injector resistor for that purpose, assuming the standard boost controller is gone)

      No. The ECU's hose is for a connetcion between the plenum (assuming single throttle body, not ITBs) and the ECU's internal MAP sensor. This is the primary load measurement of the ECU - so you need to get this one right. This has NOTHING to do with the boost contol. The wastegate also needs to see a boost signal - but it is actually far better for it NOT TO COME FROM THE PLENUM (again, assuming single TB, and not ITBs). This should come from the turbo's compressor housing (assuming there is a nipple on there, which there might well not be), or on the boost pipe somewhere between the turbo and the TB. On the pipe from the turbo to the intercooler is usually most convenient. The boost controller is then located between that boost source and the wastegate, ACCORDING TO THE CORRECT PLUMBING DRAWING FOR THAT BOOST CONTROLLER. There is no general diagram or instruction that will be correct for every case. Then the other ports on the plenum are for purposes such as Duncan described. If the boost controller has an internal MAP sensor, for a boost display, etc, then it will want to be hooked up there, alongside the ECU and the FPR.

      Ok gotcha, so one post to fpr  another to bov  and I have the mishimoto boost controller and a link g4+ so I’d just have the tuner set it up properly. For the last two from plenum post throttle to  ecu/ boost controller, I know that I have a hose coming from the ecu that I was confused about so I assume that’s what connect to the boost controller from the ecu? And then the last is just from plenum to boost controller then to wastegate?
