Hell yeah. When i drive this thing it brings a smile to my face which is why i built it. If it doesnt sound the way i want it to then its not right.

Flame on lol

Awww..... 'Yeahhhh, but race carrrr.. :blush: '

Damn i was gona go a HG next year but this thread is converting me.....aarghh right decision i hope.

Do it!!! i am, my car will be off the road for a good year to save the cash to do a turbo upgrade.

going to do it on the cheap side and hope things last and upgrade them as needed.

List so far is:

Ebay special high mount exhaust manifold.

Most likely T67 -25G turbo

44mm TIAL gate or turbosmart 38mm ultra gate

freddy inlet manifold ?? Maybe needed for highmount turbo

deatschwerks 1000cc injectors

E85 fuel as insurance on the stock engine.

everything else i have to run it but might sell the PFC and Z32AFM and buy a ECU with a MAP sensor

freddy plenum or any front facing plenum is not needed for high mount.

stick with 44mm tial gate as its proven already, no 38mm jobs so far but you never know, you may be the first to get it working and holding boost properly with the t67..

i wouldn't go ebay s/s high mount just yet, wait to see how long Jez's manifold lasts before jumping on ebay and getting one.

U dont need an inlet manifold, just shorten/ re-route ur pipes, someones done it on some thead, my shopping list for now:

Z32 -$150 and up

Siemens dekka 60lb top feed high impedance injectors-ebay only round $280, spacers and EV1 plug convertors separate

Turbosmart CompGate 40 - round $330

TD06SL2-20G 10cm kit - $750

Misc plumbing, gaskets, elbows, bits, pipes- $100..

Still comes out ok if u shop around and have a gud fabricator too..

But as of yet i can only sit n wish for another three months till i get my licence back from darlings NSW RTA..

38mm gate doesnt sound big enough? But then I dunno much about ext gate setups except that most r using 44mm so kinda surprised, as even trent said that 40mm is the min he will go

If you are running more boost you don't need it as big.

To whoevers interested, this is very cheap!

I have a tial wastegate for sale.. It is a 44mm and has a 1.1bar spring in it..

$280 posted anywhere in oz.. Cheers

Jez, what did you do with the turbo oil return? Did you use the standard rb25 one or did you use the one supplied in the kando kit?

If you are running more boost you don't need it as big.

Exactly.

So since i have a turbosmart t boost controller already and will be running say 22psi max, u guys r saying a 38mm gate will do?? Running Nistune btw

What is this? Turbo 101?

What about more boost implies a smaller gate will suffice? Remember that more boost will be more flow, more flow will mean it needs a gate that can flow it.

Just because running an undersized gate will overdrive the turbine and hold high boost while sucking at low boost doesnt mean its a good thing. Equally so running a bigger gate doesnt somehow suck at running lower boost, DOES IT? Don't be so feeble minded to think the extra flow will balance out with the added shaft speed needed for the boost, it aint that simple.

My gate cant bypass enough gas to hold steady boost. Oh yeah, duff man.

Get the f**king Tial MVR you tight asses, Im sure a $300 turbosmart progate is not genuine to begin with.

    • Welcome back to the scene! Godzilla Motorsports were well regarded back in the day.  My GT-R had work done there prior to my ownership.   SRS (Street Race Solutions) in Toowoomba worth a look.  They've built some pretty wild Skylines. Their YouTube channel is comedic to watch!  I'm sure they're all on the glass BBQ but they get shit done! 🤣
    • Hard to say what the extra connector is, it looks a bit like a coax type connector, so possibly a separate radio/GPS antenna, or even another camera input?  The V37 series (including the Q50), did go through a model refresh in 2020, since Australia didn't get any Q50s newer than 2019, we didn't get any of the refreshed models, so there could also be other unexpected problems to overcome to swap an older Q50 head unit into a new model V37. There probably aren't too many people around that have made these sorts of changes to a Q50/V37, so you might end up being the first if you do decide to go ahead. ACP is Apple Car Play and AA is Android Auto, they are roughly the same thing for the 2 major phone operating systems (Apple's iOS and Android), it allows you to connect your phone and access a number of your phone applications on your car system.  With Nav apps included, so you could use google maps/Waze or whatever your favourite navigation app is, instead of using the built in navi system.  I think this would be a better solution if it is only Navigation that you are looking as swapping the head unit for. GPS signals are the same around the globe as the GPS satellites continuously circle the globe, but it is the head unit that doesn't allow you to load Australian maps, or at least no-one had made an Australian map that will load up on the JDM head unit. Regarding the TV standards, I assume you are referring to the AV inputs?  I haven't ever tried to use them, Japan used a slightly modified version of the US NTSC system, and Australia uses PAL for composite video, that said, I wouldn't be surprised if a video input could work with either system.  That is mostly irrelevant here though, unless you plan to use those inputs for something?
    • If you've got bucket loads of $. Go single. If not, just upgrade the twins, Garrett -9's or whatever the current equivalent is for a healthy 350awkw and leave it at that. Will probably still cost you 10k to do in this day and age.
    • When you looking to buy injectors?? I could possibly sell you my 1d1700s for decent price. Done little work I just need bigger again 😫
