ah i was going thru hanaldo's build thread and watching his video's and he was saying that he wasnt making enough power and even with extra boost it wasnt making more, probably wrong section :ph34r:

looking at hanaldo's vids and dyno, wondering if its the turbo thats maxed out, cause with the garrett, well my one, seems to gain 10kw every 1psi, no dig just thinking or has it changed lately?

Is possible. But given the size of the turbo, and other results achieved with them, it shouldn't be. Just a matter of crossing things off the list now.

Can. Not. Be. Farked.

They spend just as much time in each others build threads. Same same

:laugh:

The car in this thread works better though, my thread is full of pig.

  1. Buy more springs
  2. Agricultural piping to intake
  3. ???
  4. Profit

LOL you are a special kid i give you that much :P

Martin just enjoy it for a while man! You deserve it after the effort you've put in.....

So big weekend -

So the clutch went in pretty sweet, Another thanks goes out to AGGRODAVE for the torque setting, much appreciated :thumbsup: Rear gearbox seal just arrived at my desk so it will go in tonight and will degrease it all down... Filled the box with the smurphs blood (Redline lightweight shockproof stuff) and fir the exhaust, we fit the new 100 cell venom cat, no noticable change it exhaust not etc at this stage....

Whilst at it i also fit the front coilovers and sprayed the strut bar (Thanks to Kurtis34 for suggesting) and it came up pretty good -

Not sure what to set the coilovers too but at the moment the front is 24 and the rear is 16... Will see how that goes on the road... It also sits about an inch lower now :)

I noticed at Texi the lock on the 34 sucked for the one run i tried to do a skid so i added some steerting spacers and loctite the rods back in to make sure they were secure after doing some research online

Doesnt seem to scrub or foul on anything however i will need to try again with the splashguards back in.

Rolling the guards was much easier than expected, there is no sign from the outside that they are slightly pumped, when you look close you can see the guard angle change but it looks sweet -

It was my first attempt but was a pretty easy job with the roller and hear gun :D

This is how the rear now sits with new coilovers etc -

JEM gave me a new tune to put in to try diagnose the E sensor issue, they have been fantastic as always, am going through it tonight i hope :yes:

Was good to see it all lit up at night, the globes are thanks to 666DAN on the forums a while back

So after the first initial drive to turn it around my opinion on the Jim Berry clutch is absolutely AMAZING :woot:

I got excited and took some happy snaps, paint is crap but it still comes up OK for a nugget! Cant wait to get the paint sorted and have a nice clean car again -

looks great, great when everything goes to plan.. im interested to know the traction difference of going from the tein's to the BC coilovers, looks like you have kumho's on there too.

im guessing it didnt squat much on the rear and the kumho's wouldnt grip?

So many updates!!! dude your car looks amazing

give it ere!

Was a huge weekend! Pretty sore but worth it.... Back at it again after work! Farrrrkin SAU NATS :woot:

I've changed tyres too but the 275's on it arent known to be the grippest things on the planet lol..... They only have a 2 week lifespan before the RS-R's go on for the Nats anyway.... Powerplay is going to be epic!!

Ive set the rear softer and am trying to get proper wheel align settings for tomorrow. That should make it nice and grippy!

    • Reasonably hard, although I haven't run it with the new Endless setup yet. The old brakes were F50's on 335mm rotors and the car did a 1:40.6 at Phillip Island which is a reasonable time, I'm seeing high 600s on the temperature paint. A guy I know ran the Endless fluid at WTAC without issues and he was doing 1:33's I think (Evo) with a 355/332 setup. I don't get out to the track as much as I'd like but we put the car on the hoist and spanner check every bolt and re-paint mark everything, bleed the brakes, change the fuel, check the coolant system and re-bleed blah blah blah before every event. Motorsport is expensive, RB's are expensive so a couple of hours before an event is time well spent. It's also a net time saving because if you can keep your RB from self destructing it saves you time in the long term!
    • Welcome Alice......hope you have a bit more luck from here on! What was done in the build?  
    • Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!
    • Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!
    • I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
