these are the people cops should be getting, but im sure the cops would see the car with no numberplates but let it go and continue getting those cars with noisy exhausts instead.

It was completely rebuilt. Billet straight cut 1st-4th gears, billet crown wheel and pinion shaft, new diff bearings, Nismo mechanical 1.5way LSD, hydraulic clutch conversion. Had it in the car for all of a trip from Bayswater to Healesville when the circlip popped off the end of the shaft, lodged itself elsewhere in the gearbox and the car was stuck in 5th gear which made for a very interesting and difficult tow home since the car wouldn't roll ;)

Gearbox was out of the car on Tuesday, landed in Sydney on Wednesday, got fixed and sent on Thursday arrived back in Melbourne this afternoon and I got the car back this evening.

I haven't even driven it yet :) The Pulsar was auto beforehand, I'd been collecting parts for this conversion since November DECA last year when I pulled the car off the road.

Don't presume the worst all the time Shan :)

Respray to me = The paint faded over the last 18 years. Full respray to freshen it up.

Head/turbo condition = Yeah, maybe he has blown the turbo.. But it has a new one now so it's all good? I fail to see a problem.

Trust me I've seen enough dropkicks come through the doors at the panelbeaters to know why someone resprays their cars or changes head and turbo.

NO ONE resprays their car for the hell of it in the same colour it was before. They only ever respray the car in the same colour to cover up something or to fix damage.

If you're lucky, it's cos of faded paint. Worst case scenario its cos it had a frontal, or was a VIV car, or a rebirth. You're just as big a dropkick if you're naive enough to believe the in the kindness of the human spirit when it comes to used car sales. If you believe the worst it makes the seller work harder to sell the car to you, or at least be more willing to drop the price. Don't delude yourself and buy a car with glazed over eyes.

Cops are enforcing the road rules on VicRoads behalf...so yeah they have the power to f**k you up, but they usually only bother with trucks etc.

Saw today two vicroads cars and an unmarked cop car pulled over on the grass section between the eastern freeway. 3 guys talking to each other.

Sounds like they were getting ready to ram more people lol

What are they goin for?

Color pref would be black, gunmetal, white, silver...

white is classic on a 32, like bayside blue on a 34 and midnight purple on a 33.

20k or so for a mint 94 model.

      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

      By hypergear · Posted

      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.
