This is the new SS2 prototype trail using the external gate turbine housing. It actually made about 300rpms better in response. how ever didn't help when the car caught in fire. lol. One of the rubber hose expanded under pressure and torched on the exhaust manifold. Well, made 293rwkws when fire broke out. lol. Will do a bit more trailing in later stages.

looks very nice @ only 20psi too

Impressive, how is the heat with this one, could you drive it for 10 minutes in the hills flogging it non stop at ~4k on full boost without it starting to detonate or lose power?

Also what is with the torque dip when it hits full boost, lots of your dyno graphs seem to have this, is there any reason?

This one is pretty alright. Wasn't getting very hot. Turbo was ok. We didn't get too many runs as the rubber hose caught on fire. Floged it this morning with all the rubber hoses replaced and its so much fun with external gate.

not getting hot...but vacuum lines caught fire?

this thread can bring the lulz at times

If a rubber vacuum line touched a stock dump running stock boost it would probably catch fire.

It's probably not very important to some, but for what it's worth I flogged my car for three days straight at Powercruise this weekend and it loved it. Not a single issue at all, and the performance of the G2 was great. Didn't get too hot, just kept going all weekend.

Stao, I'll be watching this thread closely. Keen on an externally gated turbo capable of 300rwkw that doesn't lose too much response without having to change too much of the stock setup. Going to look into water/meth injection to keep things cool. The turbo you're working on at the moment sounds like it could be the perfect fit.

awesome! what turbo is he running?

That was a old TR44 turbo. They are the ancestors for the current ATR43G3. I still have few housings and wheels for those used as door stoppers at moment. Can put them together for $450 with 12 month warranty for any one whom wants one. Externally gated only.

Also some winton drifting footage from Abe's car. It made 290rwkws using the old ATR43G3 none FNT version.

Its currently making 347rwkws with the FNT update on E85. Should be seeing him hitting the track soon.

Edit / add:

The youtube quality sucks, you can down low the raw footages from links below:

Door mounted camera

http://www.digi-hardware.com/photos/abphotos/sidecam.wmv

Roof mounted camera

http://www.digi-hardware.com/photos/abphotos/topcam.wmv

That is enough evidence for me.

Agreed on the too many turbos thing zebra.

Something like this would be fantastic

turbo name, specs @ x psi, peak kw, peak nm, peak torque -25% from x-y rpm (eg 3500-6500rpm), cost, internal/external gate/housing type

Stao - Can we get a run down of all the products you currently offer....Ive tried looking back through this thread but info is all over the place

Pretty much what ever you see on our website. Here is a mixed of older, current and under development products. Once a better product is developed, the older version of it is automatically discontinued and replaced. Just like the ATR43G3s built in 2008 is a completely different turbo to what it is today.

The Youtube video quality is so bad compare to my original footage, I’m seeing many familiar cars. Yours might be in the footage. I will post an http link once they are uploaded.

Is it possible to compile something like what I said stao? I saw that you put quite a bit of effort into overlaying all your graphs in the past, would most likely be less work to do this. :)

Could we get some footage of you flattening the throttle at 2k in 3rd gear until like 6k or something? I'f you could film the tacho that would be fantastic, love to get an idea of the transient response on the road. :)

Ill get this footage tomorrow. Ill try to push it as far as I can. Did anyone notice the XR6 lol.Tailgated me a fair way waiting for me to run him.

    • They see me rollin' they hatin'....... Took me most of the day to make the necessary mods to the mounts to make them fit the car.  Fortunately I was able to just use the mounts that came with the rotisserie. The rear ones are really secure, the front I feel i might reinforce a bit more as it doesn't seem like enough attachment to the vehicle. I'm sure it's fine but better to be safe than (extremely...) sorry.  I drilled and tapped thread into additional M12 holes to each car mount where it attaches to the rotisserie as an extra fail-safe. Without them the side to side movement is just restricted by the allen head pinch bolts, nothing actually goes though the beam. Does now! I still need to adjust the rotisserie to get the car centred in terms of centre of gravity. If it's too high or too low relative to the rotational centre line of the car, it will be like a turtle and roll onto its back or as it currently sits, I dont think I'd be able to rotate it as it sits as it needs to lift the whole car up as it rotates. Ain't happening... I'm going to be nervous as hell the first time I go to spin it on its side...    
    • Oh yes done this when the window started flopping around.  Turns out the guides that run along the rail chanel had crumbed way. Took off the door card and pulled out the window mech, then the window, which you have to pull out through the top. As said unbolt the guide rail and don't spend 30 minutes getting frustrated trying to find a way to slide it out upwards cause that don't frigging work. Drop it down and out through the door hole. All I did to repair it was slice some 10mm clear plastic tube, vertically, then screw it to the guide rail both sides. This tubing rolls inward on both sides and leaves a gap wide enough to hold the window. To finish all I did was lube the plastic tube with olive oil and Bob's your uncle . . . well if he has the operation he can be your Aunt ! !  10 bucks in plastic tube and another 5 minute job done again . . . . YEH BULLSH#T ! My love for Skylines knows no bounds !
    • So was there a solution to this problem? I’m having this issue now. 
    • not expensive, just irreplaceable if you don't go sub 60 at wakie in that thing people will start talking
    • I haven't replaced that, but I have had the doors apart on the r32 a couple of times The door skin will be held on by a combination of clips and bolts, just take it slowly and make sure all the sneaky hidden bolts are out Once the skin is off you should be able to pop that piece off pretty easily, looks like there are only 2 bolts holding it on
