Oh they have a 45mm again?

Last time i checked (admittadly a while ago) they stopped making the 45mm ones and went to 48mm or something like that.

Going back 6 yrs now mine was a 45mm progate - so the 45mm item should be perfectly fine

Make sure you get extra springs.

I remember when mine came it only had a 10psi spring combo in the box

I needed to get extra springs ordered in to get it holding 16-17psi consistently :cool:

Given you want the gate to set as close to the desired boost as possible etc. Less change of gate creep which i had using a 7psi spring (and trying to run 17psi lol).

Soon as the springs were changed out it was all spot on.

Turbosmart 48mm would be a good choice, or anything around the 45-48mm marker.

Same as what i ran with a GT3040 (550-600hp)

Out of curiosity what did you make RWKW from that setup

270rwkw @ 16-17psi

369rwkw @ 24psi (sunoco104, i could run approx 8-10 degrees extra timing across the entire map, venting gate etc)

The 3" exhaust i had @ the time was terrible and holding it back on PULP with the gate plumbed in as well :/

Wish i had the exhaust i have now. Would have seen around 300-320rwkw on 20-22psi, perhaps even a tad more as it made 250rwkw @ 1bar.

Given we have E85 around, you could probably add another 40rwkw to whatever figure as well. Would have been interesting :cool:

Nice, definitely interesting results.

Although I am far from an E85 fan boy, but I am one of few and as we know majority rules :cool: So ill can it right the

Similar to you, exhaust is my current dilemma. I dont want to change away from what I have although have intention to lean as hard as I can on a fairly basic setup. I want to set a reference point for the turbo really.. Unit is an off the shelf 3037, .87 rear, 80mm surge cover.

I see you refer to your results often, although have been yet to find them in the dyno threads. Thanks for sharing.

Never got a chance to upload the 369rwkw run as that was from Autosalon & never got a print out (you can see it on youtube tho)

The 270rwkw run i think i have a sheet for somewhere. I'll have a look. Was what... 5yrs ago now so not entirely sure! :cool:

Sorry for hijackings :/

    • Hi guys, thanks for the replies.  I will have to wait till summer to test properly, but it short cycles both when heating and cooling. I’ve ordered a new internal temp sensor that sits under the vent in the steering wheel also, GTSBOY, I have an Apexi FC ecu, I’m assuming I won’t be able to diagnose or would it still work? Could the ecu be causing the problem??   the pressure switch is quite cheap I will get a new one and try it out, hopefully it doesn’t require purging the refrigerant again?
    • Do you know what size restrictor? Just flushed it with the Prestone flush & then water numerous times until the water ran clear, still looks rusted & will no doubt cause trouble later.
    • you can enter your VIN (the original, japanese one) here to find the correct part#: https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan however, after all this time it is more likely to be a wiring issue than the sender
    • no, it was the same here, just flurries but no need to get the toboggan out....but it is exactly the sort of days where its good to have some inside jobs on the list. Speaking of which the fuga is driving properly after 2 1/2 years.....but that is a whole other thread
    • And yes, put in the restrictor while you are there; a standard engine is fine with a little less oil and you are less likely to run out of oil if you have sustained high revs for any reason eg visit a track one day. How did you clean the cooling system
