yeah mines a jjr430 too oil only...just had it on the road for the past 2 days just with a simple tune to get the car running until we can do a street tune...as for boost I see 10psi at 4000rpm (remember its not tuned either). These turbos are great upgrades for the rb series motor :) :) :) :) :P

Yeah I will get close to 300RWKW with that turbo with the right supporting mods. Didn't some one on the club get like 313RWKW with a KKR480....

Cams, well tuned, PowerFC etc.

Any way, I would be very happy with 250RWKW.. well for a month at least.

I have 4.4:1 diff gears... so you can imaging what 250RWKW would be like with those gears.

I will go to a Garret GT35/40 eventually, I just had the KKR480 sitting around, I had it for sale for $400 and no one wanted it so I thought I would use it and its only done about 500km of work.

Also, guys what do you think my old turbo is worth. High flowed R33 turbo.

A friend of mine wants to buy it but I am not too sure what a reasonable price is.

I know a friend of mine sold a high flow VL turbo for $300 but yeah.

What do you think it is worth?

There is absolutely nothing wrong with the turbo it has no shaft play, Was high flowed by previous owner in Aus not sure when but it was imported 3 years ago so I assume not too long ago. I have had the car for 4 months

  • 3 weeks later...

I couldn't really verify my boost/rpm because I have no license but a friend of mine was driving it tonight and we concluded 14psi @ 2700rpm up a hill and 3rd gear 14psi @ 3000rpm on a strait. Even in 2nd gear spools 14psi at about 3200rpm at the most.

I am going to get video footage of this, would get some tonight but my mobile wont show up much in the dark.

Tomorrow I will see if I can get hold of a video camera and record some footage.

I am having a few issues tuning my boost levels so I am only running at 14-15psi. I would have to assume 18-20psi would only be an extra 100 or 200rpm.

    • I have two German Shepherds that like to bite things that are in places they shouldn't be. Plus the cars/batteries on chargers are inside a locked garage, inside that fully fenced and locked yard. If you can get the car out, you can have it, as I'll be having one hell of a laugh at your expense.
    • Looks like they changed the wording in the manual for the new model. I have a different model. Mine is CC1206. Not CC1206-XLI. Mine doesn't support lithium at all. I can't find the manual for my model online and they don't list the model on the Century website anymore either. In my manual it says what I quoted and that they recommend to not leave it on 🤷‍♂️ Sounds like you'd be fine with this one now.
    • Thanks for actually answering every single point! I noticed the date only after posting. And yes, looks like things have changed a little bit since then. FWIW, looks like Government Gazette No 253 has the current emissions test procedure. Sounds pretty reasonable altogether. One thing I learned from this is that it's possible to check whether a catalyst does any work by measuring the temperature. Catalyst outlet temp is at least 40°C higher than inlet temps if there is a reaction happening. I'd be curious to check this on mine but don't have a thermometer. Because purely going by smell it can't be doing much. Personally I'd be okay to pay for the test as long as it's within reason. My main concern would be to lose my rego because it definitely wouldn't pass the test in its current state. I'll see if I can do a bit more digging and see what's involved in doing this nowadays.   To be fair I don't think it's stopping many people from doing the modifications anyway. It just puts a barrier up to doing things right  
    • Uhhh if anyone sees this - I bought a BRZ years ago, on my fulls soon so back on the market for the R34!
    • Research research research, and tackle the important things first, like the rust, because as a wise old hippie and some crazy horses once said "rust never sleeps" Nothing good comes easy and fast, and nothing that comes easy and fast is typically good
