had an interesting spot last night....

was walking to my car when i noticed a funny looking muffler on an 89' shape integra. i stopped and had a closer inspection. to my surprise it was a dirty big turbo charger! Kudos to you buddy! i've heard of that setup before, but haven't seen it, let alone on an integra!

Helllllllllooooooooo I'm still here, just got the suspension changed in my 34 today actually. So I'll be spending a little more time driving it around now. I have some sad news though, I'm moving

Blew the cobwebs out of @Sinista32 last Sunday for a few hours. It's great to get the passion back every so often

No you just tried to give him a run. Stop telling us how you are driving like a dickhead.

As chris said, nextr time it happens you need to look at the computer in the boot and see how many times it flashes etc, PM me with what its doing. My book might tell me whats causeing it.

Ed said he checked and there were no errors coming up. He finally managed to get it to play up slightly today. He said the last GTR he had with this exact same issue was a real bitch to find the problem because it was intermittant and it turned out to be a grounding problem. So he's fitted some earth straps and we'll see where it goes from there.

Was certainly good to have her back :)

Yeah that was me, i was having fun with a SS commodore.

Awesome I was hoping you were a member. Yeh I saw the commie trying to harrass you. I was going to set chase and surround him with lines'. I was so tired, I could barely keep my eyes open, didnt think flicking over to full boost and going nuts was a good idea. Nice ride though mate. Love the kit

Dark r32 on Northbourne-Barton Highway- Gungahlin Drive - tonight, cruised with them for a while, then in usual fashion boosted off like an idiot.

Spotted a chick driving a silver R33 down northbourne, gave the nod. Then I proceeded to re-enforce the poor current selection of rear tyres at a certain set of lights, with some insanely stupid fishtail action. But did top off the drive home by smoking a very nice lookin evo, literally smoked it at one set of lights. Love the old tires, throws up some nice smoke through the first 3 gears on full boost lol

spotted a silver R33 on the Barton Hwy this arvo about 3pm.... not sure if they're on here but he flashed his lights from behind and then we exchanged a wave as he went past me.

I thought you would have recognised me or at least the car :)

Spotted a dark - couldn't tell if it was blue or black R32 driving through the road that passes through the shops at Gungahlin about 2 hours ago.

Also spotted a silver R33 at the roundabout near the servos in Gunners about 20 minutes ago, I was parked in the blue S3.

Could have been me. I was there about then.

      Help Understand GTT Boost Setup

      By DraftySquash · Posted

      It was roughly 3.5 hours.    car went in around 11:00 and I was done around 2:30 He did the initial runs, install the BC and then Nistune install and tune.  The best part was sitting in the lobby and hearing the skyline on full throttle at the dyno 😂😂

      Glad it all went smooth. How long did the tuning process take?

      Help Understand GTT Boost Setup

      Yeah that was kind of the same feedback my tuner gave me.  the boost tee is until I can sort out my plan for the electronic boost controller and what I’d get, where I’d mount the dash etc.  I’m happy with this until I can figure it out. Not a big fan of the A-pillar gauges. I’d like to get a clean install of the boost gauge - something digital like GFB.  Something like that might fit neatly where the ashtray is and look clean. I feel like replacing the OEM triple gauge is a bit extreme for a weekender like my skyline. And it’s not making crazy power to need all the additional sensors/gauges.

      I'm about to swap my box to Tremec T56 Magnum F & initially thinking of re-using my DCS twin plate (can get it re centred for the bigger spline) but it's been called out the box will be noisy (rattle) as the clutch is unsprung.  So I'm doing as much research as possible. I'm not so worried about holding the power as I'll go the track version which on paper will hold the maybe 1000hp I make. It's the longevity I worry about. DCS told me they don't use a sprung centre as it's just something that can break. The uni clutch has a very complicated sprung centre. Any one had or heard about any issues with it failing? Thanks in advance.

      Auto is at least 10% (from my real, actual experience with different torque converters and manual on the same setup) ~185rwkw at 11.6psi (peak!) is entirely what one would expect without a FMIC or anything else on the intake, it does bleed off towards the higher RPM so it's what, 9psi there? Note: There is nothing that can be done about this with a manual boost tee. If you want to hold it steady and gain more top end, well - You will need electronic boost control.....
