I wouldn't say so..... I drove a Mk4 RZ on the weekend and DAMN!!! they pick up so well and the feeling you get when the 2nd turbo comes on boost is absolutely amazing. Plus that 6th gear just tops it off.

I would own 1 in a second

I thought supras were simultaneously turbochrged not sequential?

Its simultaneously turbocharged, but they kick in sequentially.. If that makes sense

No issues with Skylines vs * here. Thats why ronin is still here, he is our token toyota driver. :D

The supra is a real sports car though, they are just so nice to drive. I prefer skylines, but if Nissan didnt make the skyline I would probably have a 350z, but if they didnt make a 350z then maybe I would go a supra.. maybe.. hehe

The Supra's are SEQUENTIAL.

it has 2 x CT12B turbo's.

Unlike the Liberty B4 which has one bigger than the other.

there is some sort of valve that allows boost to go to the second turbo as the revs go up and at say 3000rpm (eg as I don't know the exact rev point), the valve is completely and both turbo's are boosting away...

I'd love one..

There are 2 wires in the ECU that are grounded that activates the 2nd turbo.

I would imagine the grounding of those 2 wires would activate some sort of butterfly in the exhaust manifold that would then allow the 2nd turbo to build boost...

I could be wrong though

But that system like the rx7 always plays up, hence y people go 1 single or twins with new manifolds.

My boss has a 1927 Bentley which he drive to work on a friday once a month. Hmm its friday and its in the carpark :)

Oi - ONLY toyota driver here???? :)

ok - so i don't post much - but i'm here - lurking around

There are things acronymed to VSV's (some sort of valves) that open up actuators (like a wastegate) at certain RPM - there are two because it first opens up the exhaust section (to spin up the turbo) then the intake - so that an already boosting turbo is helping out the first one :D

You can still catch it out though between the turbos :mad:

As for the Skyline vs Supra vs Anything else - it's nice to poke fun at my mates with skylines, it's always meant with a mountain of salt. All in good fun.

As for Exas... well... that's just not on ;)

PS Tosh - you're welcome, when you get your car sorted, i'd love a drive of teh MR2

      Manifold Missing A Bolt, Two Others Loose...

      By silviaz · Posted

      is it common on RB25det motors that the exhaust manifold nuts become loose overtime? I was inspecting some stuff and noticed that a couple of nuts were so loose that I could literally turn it by hand. Everything is stock on exhaust side unless when they installed the dump pipe they had to remove the manifold for whatever reason. I'm surprised the boost leak didn't show up on the test lol.

      Haha watch Alex's eye twitch when you mention Nistune to him in person lol. He's not a fan, then again it's quite a niche product. I personally don't mind them, but most usually steer clear from it. Word of advice, do not ground the AFM to the chassis, there are heaps of incorrect guides on the interwebs. Send both GND on the AFM back to Sensor GND on the harness.

      Bleeding Air From Coolant

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      That's a whole 'nother issue. Nissan ones get dirty and sticky. The coolant heats the wax pellet thingo to close the valve, so it is open when it is cold. And so if there is no coolant it just takes longer to close, because the heat has to soak all the through the inlet manifold.

      Welshys 32ZILA and the 8HP.

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      I feel like this is crazy pills though. Isn't it locked up all the time anyway? It shouldn't flare anywhere if it only unlocks momentarily while it shifts gears. And if it flares like that when shifting gears, then the 8HP with a 5500 stall is not driving as well when on the road and/or track use..
