Dam straight Damo would rather do SAU them heroin gts4 are 4.1 because they share the same parts from the gtr i think r32 gtst is 4.3 because of the lack of torque from the rb20

on the way home just now some magna was trying to race me :)

i think i need vroooom chhhhhhhhhh now

i was going out earlier and some vl commodore kept on coming alongside me and revving his engine, took a quick glance aside and saw the passenger had a missing tooth at the front. came to the lights and they were trash talking etc like all stereotypical commodore drivers do.

Shame my car has some exterior work that needs done, else my car would have looked the part far more than it does :no:.

on that note, i don't suppose anyone could give some hints for the following.

Front suspension is sagging, needs to be swapped out, does anyone know of a decent price for some decent front suspension (i recently bought springs off another member here, made no difference so it's more than likely the suspension.

and as a direct result of the suspension, my front bumper has taken some damage. does anyone know a place that would be able to repair it and respray it? also needs a better fit as the previous owner tended to do jobs in halves :D

also a set of fairly plain 17"/18" rims +tyres? i've heard tyrepower blackwood are pretty good, anyone else have any suggestions? (i live south of town)

      Need AC Compressor for R32

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Aren't these run off of high voltage in OEM applications? Like 200+V. Or at least 48V in mild hybrids. At ~18,000 BTU ballpark nominal capacity the power draw is at what, 2.2 kW? ~185A is a pretty crazy amount of amps. At 200V it's only 11A. The 70A nominal kits with up to 100A peak draw I see for stuff like classic Porsches have pretty substantial compromises like shutting off at idle and not actually managing to keep the interior cool in hot conditions because they can only output like 6000 BTU. IMO if I had to pick what high amp draw component to retrofit to these cars I would start with the engine fan, not the AC compressor. You need an ~850-1000W brushless fan, something like this: I would love to see the data but I would bet that whatever you save by running the AC compressor in a more efficient regime with an electric motor you're probably losing to conversion losses anyways. It's not really like a clutch fan where you're losing power all the time even when it's nominally disengaged and it gets worse as it engages because the envelope tracking isn't that precise.

      I'm wondering is the Toyota and Mazda "collaboration" could see that new Toyota ???G20 ??? turbo engine that they have been showing off recently into a future MX5, apparently it's good for 400hp out of the box That could easily, possibly, be much better than the last collaboration between Toyota and Subaru with the boxer engine in the twins
