pulled up next to a new vw turbo passat on the way home tonight, shit those things go like stink. i was pretty surprised by the way it mumbo'd along.

also had a dude in an old beat up corolla wagon attempt to drag me on main north road near elizabeth cop shop, ran a red light to get a head start, f**kin wanker.

yeh job sometimes helps lol...

i had a run with one of those and a vn ss lol. was pretty surprised at its speed too. not the vn tho... all piss n wind

7M's didnt have the right torque figures for the head from factory tighten them down a little more (there is info on the net somewhere) and its all sweet

with one of these

hahahah

yeah i had it tourqued down pretty damn tight, way over the factory spec.

7ms just have a habit of heating up alot around piston 5 n 6. in the end the block was munted (it had made a chanel between one of the water galleries and the 6th piston) so there was no chance some more twist could have saved it.

it now has a 1J in it :cheers: .... wish it was still mine

haha, wasnt gonna say i had a run against it, but yeah, shit, they really do move, i was expecting it to be all low down and lazy, but it just screamed along.

spotted the black 33 with 34 front and flames down the side roll past the skate park at salisbury. looked to have a for sale sign in the window and a gtr badge at the back :( i was sure that thing was a gts

Thats EMS 334. My bus goes past his house every day, he has a new silver R33 GTR on trade plates too, and there was a rubbed-down R34 under sheets there a few weeks ago.

Went out north thru Salisbury, 'Lidabeth and Craigmore on the bike yesterday. :P

Man there are so many wankers who think they can drag off a bike :P Getting tired of it. Maybe my brother can move back down closer to the city again.

Yeah. I dunno how they can charge $1200 ea when I'll have the housings already removed and give them turbos.... put them back in thru someone else.... if i get this pair of blown gtr turbos and steel wheel em, it'll be regency friendly, but i cant be stuffed paying $1200 ea when I can get 2860-7's from ISC for around that price NEW

-D

Had a quick look at RB26 results: try this

18psi with high flowed steel wheels = 280 odd kws

18psi with -5s = 316kws .........

Only had a quick look - maybe there are others making more power on high flow steel wheels?? Post em up if you find them.....

Im running N1's in my GTR at the moment im making 296rwkws with stock injectors/afm's/fuel pump/fpr. They're great nice and responsive and the only problem i have with them at the moment is once of the oil seals has gone so i just bought a set of N1's that have just been completely rebuilt and will be fitting them soon. I was gonna get the Garretts but these came up and i have less chance of problems if i have to go to regency

    • Purchased a NC MX5 a while ago Basic suspension mods done, BC coils and Whiteline sway bars  New DBA calipers, discs and pads Added some 17 x 8 Konig Decagrams with 215/45 17 PS5's Added some typical NA bolt on's, i.e. full exhaust and intake  Added 0.5ltrs with a MZR2.5 swap, nice bump in torques  Found a detachable hard top which is locked in for a colour match with my local paint shop in Feb 25, this also includes some PDR as it has received a few love taps from parking in the local shops when in the hands of my Minister for War and Finances, me, I park nowhere near other cars and typically park on the street The little thing is awesome, I drive it everywhere, it handles like a dream whether I'm up it or just cruising  But now,  because I'm a idiot, I keep looking at turbo kits....... did I mention I'm a idiot Why is dose so appealing  All of the NA 2.5 glory, well.......until sometime in 2025 anyway....🤪  
    • I would not be surprised if you are the only person on earth that has the interest/desire to do that lol.  The Haltech base map is a really good starting point, the car will fire easily and drive very well, even on mild boost levels. To me, following your advice sounds like some sort of ancient Chinese water torcher lol (this is not an insult Josh, never change <3)
    • Those car show concepts from the 2000's and 2010's like the Floria and IDx were brilliant and should've gone ahead, at least one of them. But neither Honda nor Nissan are thinking about affordable performance any more, which is truly sad.  Even if Toyota's liquid hydrogen ICE development reaches the point where it's commercially viable and the infrastructure to support it, Honda/Nissan would have to wait until Toyota allow fee access to their patents to offer it with any smaller performance models they released to take advantage of it.  
    • A sporty manual RWD coupe with a IL4 Honda engine would only be a good thing I assume we won't see anything released for a few years though, unless informal talks and designs have been going on for a few years,  and due to the current, and future, emmisions and safety requirements, I assume anything "sporty" they would do would be at least some hybrid thingie And hopefully anything they are thinking of has nice lines, without lots of plastic and fake bits hanging off it like that horrendous FK8 that looked like it was designed by a 13 year old The other issue of course in the current market is cost, currently the type R is around $70k, a twin is around $50k Meh, I'm old and grumpy and would rather buy a older model car and waste my coin on that than buying anything currently available new
