5years after the wrx crowd have gotten over the excitement of rotational idle and antilag you guys catch on haha. It might sound cool the fist few times but it gets old pretty quickly. Just watch those egt's.

yeah well it was only recently (vipec) that we have had access to a decent ecu that supports these options! (Vi-Pec)

The power FC is far behind in the times and we have been using them because it was the only way to go. Now there is a better alternative which packs all these options.

I only use cycle idle when i need it, usually on weekends and on my trip from Sydney to Newcastle to help with cooling. Only takes a couple of minutes to set it up and you are on your way.

on oil cooler yes, but BAD idea on radiator.

Ploise exploin!

I will be doing a lot of big smokey burnouts in my 32 and as such, these are the precautions I have ready to go on or have lined up:

- oil restrictors in head

- oil return from head to sump

- High Energy Pro-circuit sump

- oil cooler w/ thermo fan

- retain engine fan

- 2x11" thermos on front of radiator (removing aircon condenser etc)

Anything else I should be thinking of? should I be spraying coolers/radiator aswell?

unburnt fuel? ohhhh Mr Internet Mechanic....... man... rotatational idle works by cutting fuel to keep the revs down.. it is running lean not rich. rofl

the cooling happens because of all the fresh air getting pumped in and out of the engine not the excess fuel. :(

if u still after a larger sump, i read that "fitzpatrick speedworks" built his own 12L sump from memory for his 32gtr with a 25 block in it, maybe speek to him about a big ass sump.

oil/air seperator ?

Running an atmo vented catch can that will have a drain back to the sump.

Personally, I'd prefer to spend the 1100 odd $$ on a proven design ala High Energy Pro-circuit. I've seen some of the dodgy modded sumps around and they really don't look very nice. That being said, if anyone can find a sump that will fit an RB30'd R32GTSt that is of the same quality as the High Energy items and comes with baffles and 4 gates, please let me know :(

P.S. and I don't mean gates made out of door hinges!
