Inner West Crew Whoretown (toowong/st Lucia/kenmore/indooroopilly And Sometimes Sunnybank?)

Who wants to do my stats analysis work for me? Base level stuff so we have to show all working instead of just plugging it into a nice big spreadsheet full of macros.

need a R32 cluster. dont care what version of the car just needs to be R32.

about to fix up someones expensive mistake and I need a second black gauge overlay..

need the whole black backing plate.

need to do big cruises more often.

my tank is still on about an 1/8 and im just about to hit the 500km mark :happy:. thats better than ive had for a while

Good luck finding a real 200ZR however. Weren't they rare as hens teeth?

Also, beyond rarity what did the ZR have over the ZX? I'd probably prefer the VG30 over an RB20

torque would be the difference from my point of view.

Boz - I really only bought it to save it from being wrecked... he wasn't going to keep it in one piece much longer. When your insurance is sorted out if you're interested, happy to talk :).

Also, C31 laurel, Y31 cima/cedric/gloria, A31 cefiro... I'm sure there is more :P

Chris - Sorry mate only just got your message. It's already here, and I don't really want to drive it until the rego is changed over. You're welcome to come round and have a look if you like, I should be home all arvo. I'll call you a bit later.

Wouldn't an RB20 have considerably less tourque than a VG30?

And Smity, buy them all ;) I shall then dub you Mr 31! And we shall talk when insurance gets sorted. If it ever gets sorted... I was promised an answer by 5pm Friday. No answer as yet...

Did some digging. From the factory the RB20DET had more or less the same power as the VG30ET (one or two HP difference) but 15nm more tourque. I guess the 4valves per cylinder and higher boost/addition of an intercooler really make all the difference.

Where have all the cheap S chassis cars gone? Can't find a turbo, manual S13/S14/180SX for under about $5-6k. Looking on Carsales, Nissan Silvia, Hard Tuned, Boost and here...

    • 1. Factory knock sensors for now, honestly the RB26 OEM knock sensors seem ok as they're flat response instead of resonant type but they appear to be internally grounded to the block. If I do replace the sensor it would just be to get ones that are not internally grounded so a differential input can be used to reject common mode noise. Definitely plan on fixing this as a part of the tuning process. 2. Never deliberately induced knock, though I guess I could try that experiment if I really wanted to. 3. All of this is basically on a stock engine + ECU, only modification is HKS GTIII-SS turbos and a Nismo plenum. Currently I run it with the wastegate solenoid unplugged so it won't try to raise boost past wastegate pressure.
    • After being peer-pressured into paying $100 for the MW remakes, got BO6 on XBox Game Pass. I think that's worth it.
    • That's a given!  Bit hard to powdercoat it properly without removing them! 😁
    • No detail on compressor or turbine sizes, which doesn't help with housing size selection with that kit. However, from SR20DET mucking about and money torching perspective, a GTX2860R Gen 2 w/ 0.64 (46mm inducer) will do ~260kW on E85 about 1.5bar of boost. All in before 3000pm, which cause a gearbox to shatter. Now imagine the same turbo, on a modern motor with an extra 0.5L of displacement, and heaps of cam timing adjustability (not an on/off affair like the Nissan shit boxes). If this was my car (which I would never own or consider buying, ever!), I would go for a nice twin scroll setup, and a G30-660. Gates plumbed back, no silly shit. Lean on the cam timing, big displacement to create a flat-ish torque curve.
