so itd be just cheaper in the long run to by a GTS, because ive found GTS-T's r cheaper than GTS's since naturally aspirated cars have gone up since the P'Plate laws. Fags use the sale pitch " P plate legal". And the laws have ruined it for many trying to sell there aspirated cars. F*** the government.

changing from gts-t to gts requires a bit

1st - you need to bump compression up otherwise the engines a dog and not fuel economic (thin head gasket but better is gts pistons)

2nd - need gts computer (it should run on gts-t ecu, but be shit)

3rd - need exhaust manifold

too much hassle

better off buying a gts, then selling it to another p plater later on down the track

Thanks Blokes very helpful. Yeah i wanna pickup a GTS but not sure if i can scrounge up the money as a 1st apprentice electrician only working 5 weeks on and off. (Hsc+app)

You forgot:

New intake manifold and plumbing

New cams and final drive (about as necessary as bumping compression up)

Its just not economically viable.

you could just modify your turbo and take off the wheel in the exhaust side... that way the exhaust gasses will never spool the turbo... that or jam the internal wastegate open all the time.

but yeah, if you want a DE that badly, sell the car and buy a N/A. it'll be quicker (time to convert) and cheaper.

    • AFM looks to be a z32 The injectors maybe old Nismo 555cc The turbo tag when looked up seems to be a gt2871 , imagine it would have the bigger rear housing .82 all look like the mid 00's mods when he started building it up. Vac hose seems right but would need to see a diagram. Great work going up there and sorting it out, be a good club car for someone wanting a good reliable rig.  I know I would like to have it but no space and too many other race cars at the moment.
    • Heys guys I got a r32 gtst speedo is out by 10kph seems the faster I go the more it be out  just seeing if anyone else had to problem and knows how to fix it 
    • I can't agree. If we hadn't all been brought up with the noise caused by the inefficiency of an ICE, no-one would actually ask for all that. An EV is like any other car, it just goes better. 
    • 2 more things I have to work out Easy one first...can anyone describe how to pull the fuel pump and sender from a 33? I can feel there is some sort of mount and clips but don't have a manual and don't know the trick......if not I'll spend some quality time in the boot witha lighter tomorrow. Second question is harder.  He had changed the upper plenum to a plazmaman but clearly got to a point with the vacuum hoses where he said "f**k it, I'm going inside for a beer" and never came back to that job because it was a mess. Am I right to think that I need: 1. Pre throttle (16mm nipple on inlet) to AAC's main 20mm fitting as the main pre throttle feed 2. ACC has a second 13m outlet joined to that 20mm fitting which I think is the pre throttle air supply for the cold start valve? 3. Cold start valve's outlet fitting then goes to Plenum (to bypass throttle?) There is some adapter on the back of the ACC with 2 fittings (13mm and 10mm), do I run the 10mm through a 1 way valve to the Brake Booster (4) and the 13mm back to a 13mm nipple on the Plenum as the Idle control (5)? 6. Run a 6mm vacuum line from the Turbosmart BOV to the Plenum? 7. Run a 5mm vacuum line from the Fuel Pressure Reg to the Plenum? 8. Run a 5mm vacuum line from the Turbosmart Boost controller to the Plenum? (Wastegate already has a pre turbo pressure source running to the solenoid then the wastegate on the other side of the bay)  Any help appreciated, the GTR is quite different setup and while the Stagea also has FFP it is different again. (And no Dose, I'm not pissing it all off and putting a ethrottle on it....)
    • OK, onto some questions to try and speed up the process a little. Does anyone know what core this Garret is? I know it is a high flowed standard turbo but nothing else about it. Tag says OK 0169J - 446179-5032 Same question for the injectors, I don't know what they flow and ideally can work it out before it hits the dyno, they are a mustard yellow side feed
