Very productive day again today! Water pump, belts, coilovers, coilpacks, and more importantly, MY COOLER! The fan hits the crossover pipe and ticks like a clock on speed, we didnt have enough time or tools to properly cut all the shit out of the front bar, so it sits 2cm forward and relies on 5 cable ties for support, but i love it.

Yeah we are going to finish it all off next weekend, i dont drive it during the week anyway so it will be fine until then. Kellie earthed my boost solenoid too, couple more pounds, pulls so much harder through 2nd and 3rd now!

hey damien, did you earth it via a switch or did you just earth it so its constant?

interested in doing this boost solenoid trick

was the difference noticeable?

Hey Pete,

My mate had one in his s15. Setting them up takes awhile but once all set they work like a dream.

Other option i would be looking at would be a profec B.

Thanks for the reply Luke.....I already bought it cause I was told it was the best on the market (definitely the dearest).

I didn't realize there were so many features to setup......I suppose your mate set it up himself so at some stage I'll sit down with the instructions & have a go.

On the matter of belts, waterpump & gears, we may have to have a chat about your rates sometime Ryan.......I've got a workshop full of gear but no time to scratch myself lately.

someone sell me there rb25det series 2 engine pack for like real cheap :)

Ha. I could sell you one, but it comes with a Stagea. Not cheap ;)

I WANT RB25!! had my first drive in one today! so jelous!

Hmm, I recall you and Min came for a spin in the Stagea not long ago! :D

:D

Anyone know the name and number of the shop on henley beach road that sells work safty gear? Iv been searching for it but i cant remeber he name of the place, i need new work clothes and boots

I reckon you're talking about 'Yakka Aust Menswear' corner of Henley Beach Rd & Clifford St, Torrensville.

Also try 'Aust Safety Specialists' 16a Ashwin Pde, Torrensvile (just up the end of Clifford Street)

I'll ask my brother about it, cause im sure he wired it all up. he might be willing to help wire yours up or give you some info. I'll ask him and let you know.

edit: spoke to my brother about it. Wiring it up isnt that hard its just setting it up. You basically have to do street driving to get it set up correctly. Its awesome for holding boost, whatever level you set it at it will hold it, but when it comes time to up it more it can be a pain. If you want it at one level i would suggest leaving it at that.

I've got it all wired up Luke but it just needs all the parameters set up properly otherwise a setting for 10psi can boost as high as 18psi if not configured correctly

    • My hold point for future mods is that I want a OEM detachable hard top first, but, finding one is a pain, MX5 Mania are looking for one for me, but, as hens teeth are more common, finding one in Australia is proving problematic  I can get a OEM one from overseas, hell, you can still get new ones in 'Merica, but, shipping is a absolute killer and I cannot justify the cost, or the risk of it being damaged during transport As for the aftermarket hardtops, whilst they do the job of being a hard top, and are fine for a track car, they don't seal well (read: leak like a sieve in the rain), and you need a plastic/poly rear window, plus they are a bolt in option only and not made to be easily removed I liked how the hard top on my NB could be fitted, and removed, by myself, in less than 5 minutes I know it sounds bad, but I'm waiting for someone to write off a car with one so I can swoop in on their pain, it will go to a good home though, so my guilt of this is tempered
    • I’ve got one on mine and it’s fine, 
    • No, you don't want to plug the vacuum line, as that will turn that side of the booster into an air spring and probably make it feel worse. I'm not saying that the GTR master itself doesn't need a booster. I haven't paid attention to the GTR one to know what size it is cf the non-GTR ones. But when you think about it - they have to do the same job, which is to move a little slave piston a few mm to do what it is supposed to do, and that final action is the same on all the cars. So, it is very unlikely that the GTR MC is any different than the others, because it has the same pedal stroke and the same output requirement. The booster just makes it feel easier. I'd suggest you probably have an actual hydraulic problem. It's totally common on these old shitboxes.
