Nope

[funkymonkey]

yer but its under the current power to weight ratio for sedans, that the exemption i want to apply for, if it works out, yay, if not, expensive lesson

don't be retarded. They use the factory power to weight ratios to calculate the exemption, not what some habib cobbles together. you won't get the exemption and you'll be further out of pocket. I'm willing to put money on this.

[Rekin]

Patrick, want to work on it and see if it take you half day to do...

And these above aren't the full list of things need to do...

Rome wasnt built in a day. Put in the effort and the rewards will be visible.

sent the form today.. see how i go

wish me luck, and on the actual form, it shows what turbo family cars are not covered, almost all of them were 6 speed manuals or had DSG boxes/ highpo autos so i think i might get lucky. not holding my breath though

haha after my full epa, ive had my hks2530, 550cc sard injectors, z32 afm & nistune sitting in a box for couple of months. Still deciding whether to put them back on the car or sell them off. Life is stress-free not having to worry about copping another defect/epa haha

I fear the day it may happen to me.

I'd better start hiding this and that... Or leave it as is, and start worry when I finally met 'nice policeman' (or policewoman).

Me?

Yes I do, 270rwkw isn't enough and N1 turbos are rubbish.

If you leave it as is, they've won man. They've won.

Everyone could use a few extra KW.

What you talking about?!

Which N1 turbos are you referring to?

I have 34 N1 with HKS actuators and HKS EVC 4 (may be 3) but it is rubbish compared to HKS GT-SS running solely on HKS Actuators.

I think new tune is in order.

Moral of story is... shouldv'e bought a R33.

haha yeah it aint nice. It came down to a bleed-valve which made me rip everything else off

haha sorta over the power chasing phase. Thinking of improving braking and appearance now. Less hassles.

If you leave it as is, they've won man. They've won.

haha i know

Although they will truly win if i sell up the car.

[El_Mutto]

i just had to fork out over 2gs worth of just parts and repairs for the front suspension on my 32.

Total money pit...

R34 GTR N1 Turbos have the same specs as HKS GT-SS, as in the Compressor Wheel and Turbine Wheel.

Previous owner would have just upgraded the actuators to HKS to replicate the HKS GT-SS to save from buying 2 whole new Turbos... IMO.

Both these Turbos are pretty much the equivalent to the Garrett -7's Turbos.

I believe Garrett make all Turbos, aftermarket tuning houses just put their name / badge on it and give it a different name

Nope -7 and -9 (aka GT-SS) aren't the same, slighty different compressor wheel. -9 without EBC spools nice and early than -7 with EBC.

I wonder what would happen if I whacked EBC in my old 33 GTR and have it set up aggressively, I'd never know.

$200 and you get 2nd one for free, alternatively, make an reasonable offer and you still get 2nd one for free.
