Cheers Pete, it does feel good! :D I have to thank you the most, they are your turbos after all! :rofl2: Just a shame I had some gremlins stopping me from running full boost, would have broken 320kw me thinks

Dave, yeah it does sound good mate, pity you didn't hear it on the rollers, hit up my facebook soon though and you can see the run!

anyone get defuct last nite at lofty?

a couple of my mates got done by unmarkers :)

yeh i got a msg from mitch last night.. was gonna take the rolla for a strap but thought twice!!

must be mass cop heat atm!

welcome to the 300 club buddy boy

yeh welcome to the 300 club Luke

awesome power curve on that dyno sheet u got there. welldone

also god to see you went to Morpowa, Simon is a GREAT bloke down there and very helpful

how does it feel on the road???

ACTUALLY... I ended up going to Shaun at boostworx ( long story, I know I changed my mind more times than I changed my undies :) ) but I'm very impressed with the power and it's delivery. Feels sweet as on the road, struggles a bit for traction though, putting the front shaft back on tomorrow when I get her on the hoist. Simon commented on the tune, in his words "perfect" Couldn't get any better praise than that. I think he wanted me to move to E85 though :P

what was the "knock" reading if u dont mind me asking

Well, the results are in if anyone cares... Had a boost controller issue, only able to wind 16psi into it but still good numbers!

Noice! Well done. Stuck with 16psi ... what were you aiming for? 20+?

I'd be happy with 200 out of the Stag when I'm done.

bought a new family car today, not a skyline/stag sadly, but decent none the less.

got a 2000 Holden Vectra olympic edition in metallic blue, 107k power everything etc.

they where asking 9999, managed to screw them on a 4 k trade in for the 99 auto 1.5ltr lancer..hehe

so $5999 cash on top of shitty lancer, im happy with that.

20 would be the MAX, more like 18psi. Either way I'm happy with the results

I am hopefully going to be getting 250rwkw or above out my R33 around September/October time.

Fantastic power mate, MORE than plenty really. After driving the R around in RWD mode, you realise just how much 300+kw is. 250 is a very respectable figure

20 would be the MAX, more like 18psi. Either way I'm happy with the results

Should've read "stuck on 16psi" not "stuck with 16psi" ... not like you had a choice by the sounds of it.

Obviously you ran it on AWD. I'll be squeezing my lemon later in the year to see what I can get out of it ... in AWD also (and a manual box conversion).

I recall Ben (Grim) passing comment to run 24psi in this stag eventually. Be interesting what he gets out of that "family wagon".

    • It only looks tidy, as most of the stuff that was on the whole back wall, is now in the trailer to go to the tip, or has been shoved in my 2.2x2.4m "Spare parts room", and now I can't get to anything in there Ha ha ha I could definitely do with a bit more space, but I'd just end up with your problems I'm going to enclose the car port beside the garage, and move a lot of stuff into it I think. OR... It will be setup as a fabrication area, and the main garage will have parts storage in it. I'm not sure yet... Need some pictures of that big shed you've got with the bikes and Skyline in
    • No. I think it's gone. 😭 I think you can get body coloured ones on eBay so I think I'll get one of those... Or just hang a red ribbon from the hole and whack a TOW sticker next to it.
    • Can't say I've had a bad experience with one on my car, then again it only gets washed once or twice a year... The wheels on the other hand, get a good spray often due to my shitty dusty pads.
    • @MBS206 thats pretty neat and tidy to me!  I'll get a photo of mine when I'm out there next. It might require multiple photos to understand the scale of the atrocities though... In total I have 4 sheds of varying sizes and layouts. Main shed is 14x8, second shed is 3x8, third shed is 11x2.5, fourth shed is around 6x4.  All are pretty much full.   The main goal of my cleaning tsunami is to make the main shed predominantly car and motorbikes only. Second shed is my metal fab room (2 x bench grinders, drill press, bench belt sander, metal band saw, scrap metal storage and some of my garden tools.  3rd shed is more bigger garden stuff, storage for engine crane, jack stands, concrete grinder, concrete mixer, air compressor lives there, and it now has two 2mx2m pallet racking shelves with itemised boxes holding building stuff, electrical stuff, plumbing stuff, etc, etc.  The 4th shed is Ryobi electric ride on mower, mini boom sprayer, ancient Kubota tractor, more garden stuff!  I have got a lot of shit....  Then there's the pool house (8mx4m) and the pool pump shed (4mx4m).  I built all of the sheds over the 11 years we've been here.  The main shed was a Ranbuild kit, the rest are all custom made to fit the areas available. Building the main shed taught me a LOT as I had no idea about building anything prior to that!  I've still got one more in me. It will be my man cave which I poured the extra concrete for way back when I poured the concrete for the main shed. The idea is the Skyline will be a centre piece of the main cave once (if...) it's finished.  I told my now 14 year old son yesterday that I will 100% drive him to his year 10 formal in 2 years. Still a long way off but at least I now have a date to work towards! 🤣
