Do you cry a little bit everytime u look at your dp? When are we going for a ride Phil?

how much callan ??

Undecided yet if im def going to upgrade. its either spend $650 on the HKS turbo and get around 280rwkw with good response or sell it and go a hypergear and get between 300-350rwkw with a bit more lag......

I like the response, but its a big power jump

go the hypergear. response is over rated.

[dysonest]

yeah lag is hated on soooo much and its bullshit. lag is f**kin awesome cal

drive around off boost n save fuel

drive around on boost and smoke most cars that would try race ya

and remember its only a clutch kick away....... or maybe 2

[89CAL]

Well te idea with the HKS was I would have a good balance of both, Plenty of people were getting 280rwkw + on pump fuel with rediculous response, go to E85 and they were over 300rwkw

But things didnt pan out that way, pretty angry with the lack of support from HKS (through nengun was probably the issue)

So its looking likely I'll end up with the Hypergear, and sell my HKS turbo on ebay for more then its worth

But I'm waiting for Stao to finish his latest research with the possible next gen of turbos. The amount of evoloution they do with there turbos makes it hard to settle on a turbo when a newer better one will be made soon. Variable Vane turbo would be the go

Do you cry a little bit everytime u look at your dp? When are we going for a ride Phil?

Haha nah i'm good. Do miss it every now and then though.

Whenever man. I have Saturday off if you wanted to go then.

[Force Fed]

Phil, A pillar me!

[robbo_rb180]

phil where did you get all your braided line & fittings from?

i will be keen for a ride when i get my new bike up here & rego'd

enjoy ya weekend, i am off to brissy for SOUNDWAVE

[PM-R33]

Through Autobarn. I will actually start to carry braided line and also fittings on the shelf

Just trying to decide on what brand to carry. While Speedflow is the obvious choice it is also one of the dearest. The stuff I had on the Skyline was cheaper and I couldn't fault it so might carry them.

My Performance section will hopefully be exploding in size and stock over the coming months so keep your eyes peeled

Will do Chris, will add it into the next order. Haven't really had much to do with the carbon side of things due to parting the car out but now that nearly everything is gone I can start concentrating on that again.

[robbo_rb180]

are you able to get the push in male fittings for rb26 covers?

might have to get ya to come over and give me a hand to sort out what i need to get to do everything.

i don't need to buy any more go fast bits. i could probably open my own shop at the moment with what i have here now.

[Force Fed]

What fittings are you after Rob?

Any idea how soon that may be Phil?

the sensor for my boost gauge is completely overkill LOL and came out of the box like that

[dysonest]

BUMP!!! nah jokes

has anyone got any short shafts (ones that hang out of the diff) ??? i need the short one of the 2 (1 short, 1 long)

please help me so i can put this f**kin 2 way in n slide like im DK

[robbo_rb180]

i have one but i can't get it out.

when you coming up this way again??

[dysonest]

unless its from an s15 or r34 n has 30 spline don't worry lol

[Force Fed]

Phil, do you have any pics of your interior / mainly A pilar with the gauges mounted on it.........cant decide what to do

[PM-R33]

Nothing that really shows it to well.

You've been in my car though, you should remember what it looks like?

[Force Fed]

Yeah I remember the location is what I want.

as per text, any idea on 52mm version of your pillar?

edit: nevermind already sorted LOL.

Hey guys, just found this thread. Only recently got myself an R32 GTR. Live in Townsville too. I have seen a few skylines kicking about. Mine is gun metal grey with grey/silver wheels with a loud ass exhaust.

Unfortunately my car is off the road just now due to the engine being f**ked... But will hopefully get a built engine in it as soon as possible. On that note, does anyone have a suggestion as to where I can get a rebuild done with forged internals, etc...?

[PM-R33]

Hey man welcome to the forum.

Get one built down south. Plenty of places to choose from. Really depends on your budget and how much you want to do while the engine is out. Unfortunately can be quite the expensive exercise.

Did she spin a big end bearing? Or crack a piston ring?

[robbo_rb180]

i use dan at dc engines for all my machining have a chat to him about building an engine.

or just get a paul at red r racing if you have the $$ to spend.
