They will always be suss about a hi mount manifolde and turbo arrangement

Although aslong as (i am assuming its external gate) the wastegate pipe is plumbed into the main exhaust you sould be ok with with that, also if you can get an inclosed intake box as they will crack a wobbly about a open pod filter set up, if its possible and also if it has not been done already plumb back your BOV

I have had a rather suspicious looking skyline (matte black with huge wheels lol) and usually was able to go out without getting harassed, but its all in how you drive the car as they will soon learn your car and it will become a vehicle of interedt if your car has been reported/seen doing stupid shit, thats when they pull you up for no reason and go defect hunting, also if its not a local car they will pull you up and suss it out and maybe keep an eye out for it for a few weeks or so

But if the vehicle is ok and you don't drive like a lunatic you should be fine

mate generally its not the car you drive but how you drive

with that said, if you're cruising around a fully stripped 32 with a cage, straight thru pipes, and thats 2mm off the ground - yes you will get pulled over regardless

'Tis much worse after dark > or should I say, out of work hours...

'Tis worse near a maccas, KKs or KFC...

'Tis better if wearing a pin-stripe suit...

'Tis better if you look as old as me...

Gotta love the grey hair Terry, I laugh at the younguns havin a moan about how many times they get pulled over.

How many times have you been driving when a cop pulls along side, looks at you then shakes his head and drives away.

Hehe Noel,

I owned my R33 GT-R for 2yrs and a day. I have owned my R34 GT-R just 1 month short of 3 yrs.

Despite my massive tip, I've never been pulled over - not once. RBTs don't hassle me. I wear a beret now to hide some of the grey haha. No, I'm not gunning for a spot on Mythbusters hehe.

I admit tho' that if I went out a lot at night, it would be a different story.

I don't have to see 'blue'; I can smell it!

Cheers, T

C'mon Craig & Noel, sensitivity doesn't get calloused with age ya know.

My optimism only extends as far as this...

"I might be losing my hair on top; but at least it regrows thru the ears and nostrils" hahaha

What have we here? A collection of the DRIEST WIT SAUers on the forum!

...all on this backwater called 'Skylines A Target'

I'll always remember your contribution to "Which Mods To Do In Order" Craig lmao = one of the best posts ever!

BTW where is the OP?

      Let's hope that's not a copy pump either. There were so many copies of them back in the day.

      Damn it, I was at work last night, and stayed in a room there during the storm with the car outside, but undercover, I just went downstairs and well....there was a large steel locker that has come from some place last night, it wasn't anywhere I could see yesterday, and yeap, it landed on the fraking car....of course it did..... LOL So, I'll need to take it back for paint and panel, luckily it was only the boot that took the hit, so it could have been worse Serves me right for staying at work and getting on the cans with some of the boys

      Yeah, really happy with how it all turned out As for aftermarket lip, nah, I'm not really a fan for practically reasons on a street car that gets driven everywhere  I did have the full lower kit on my 2015 STI, but found the front lip scrapped alot, even at stock 4x4ish ride height As the NC sits now, with the lowest point of the car at 110mm, so just legal, some steep driveways and steep speed humps will still "just" scrap those little plastic OEM air dam thingies on the undertray just before the front wheels

      Hypergear Turbochargers and High flow Services Development thread

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      Here's one I help build and tuned a decade ago, Garrett  GTX3071R Gen 1, T3 twin scroll 0.83 rear housing. Went from larger 272 cams down to smaller Tomei Poncams to help with the low end. S13 non VCT motor. Car was purpose built for the track, hence low down was the focus. Note the actual dyno chart shows lower boost, however the EBC and boost gauge showed 1.9Bar (Ignore the torque, I was young and didn't know how to set derived torque)

      Hypergear Turbochargers and High flow Services Development thread

      I’m doing some side developments on SR20det S13 engines, its one my hobby cars used it to compare flow capacity of some smaller size wheels. SR20det is one of another JDM legendary engines I'm sure there are plenty of SR enthusiasts on this forum, I will share results some common turbo configurations here. a quick run down of what the car is: Wide body 180sx Type X with black top engine (blue). It has: Stock bottom end Haltech 1500 ECU 5-0 motorsports trigger kit Kelford SR20DET Beehive Spring with Titanium Retainers Kelford Cams SR20DET S13 188-B 268/272 Cams G25-660 Turbocharger in T2 .64 rear housing internally gated ARP Head studs MLS head gasket 1000CC ID injectors Walbro 450L Fuel pump Front mount cooler kit JJR’s 3 inches turbo back exhaust (its too short for the 180sx it had to be extended) Pump 98 fuel Hub Dyno tune So far made 270rwkws at 22psi full boost by 4500RPM. Engine is very knock limited hence a pretty bad looking top end. From previous experiences it seems like SR20dets are happier with bigger size turbine, some thing like a GT30 would make way better top end, but on same time response is lost. It won't be a problem with S15 VCT engines. I'll be testing alternative turbine housing, turbine wheel and possibly dump pipe options for extra flow to resolve the problem and of course E85 would resolve all the issues.
