great result on that last dyno. Did you upgrade the injectors from the 1000ccs?

I have ID1000cc on my neo but they are at 80% duty cycle on 320 rwkw gt3076r 56t .63 housing which drops off to 16 psi at red line. I was thinking about going the hta3076r that you have and putting it at 22 psi, but seems like I would need to replace my injectors, although other people seem to get higher power readings with 1000cc so I guess it also depends on fuel pressure.

You shouldn't need to go any bigger than 1000cc injectors mate, not for that power level... The whole issue I had with my car was caused by the injectors, not the style, not the size... Just the wrong part number supplied by accident...

Just ordered a set of these -

Should make working on the beast SO much easier....

Nice. I used to want a set of them.

Then I started driving the Falcon. Tell you what, there is nothing else on this planet that can make you go from being in a perfect, happy mood to raging, baby-eating lunatic quite as fast as getting whacked on the head by the 15kg bonnet you trusted to be stable.

Lol well Deka tested them on the weekend and seems to be confident they will hold up ;)

I would of thought the bonnet opened enough already.. :/

More room is handy and also the bonnet stay is a pain in the ass when you are working around the turbo/airbox area!

360kw sounds slow in comparison and that is probly twice the power of my car. :(

Onya Mat. :thumbsup:

The difference between the two turbos given they are the same size is MASSIVE, the peak numbers show a difference but overall the car is a much better car, down low and in the mid range it feels nice and strong!

Ahh, how a dyno sheet only shows half the story. Area under the curve FTW!

This is something i only understood once i drove it! I was hoping it would be the case and the difference in feel was worth every cent!

You only need to breath of the pedal and its making positive pressure now :yes:

What about "throttle lag"? You push your foot down and the setup INSTANTLY responds? Does it basically feel like an NA with a gate?

Yeah, i mean its not a standard response or anything crazy like that but where the GT you would push your foot and it would....... build...... build....... build and 4000rpm it went nuts...... This is more push your foot and get the push back in the seat then all hell brakes loose, it does feel like everything happens sooner and just so much nicer, from 3000rpm onwards things are really happening!

I havent had a lot of seat time in it yet but from initial driving it feels damn good, of course this is in higher gears where traction is possible, lower than 3rd is not so user friendly until i learn not to be a meathead and drive it properly lol

Will be interesting to see how it goes on the track soon!

Think he is talking about transient response, so like when the rpm are up above boost threshold (like 4000rpm +) how does it respond to throttle input? Like on gear shifts or stepping on the throttle how long does it take to get silly if you already have the rpm up?

This^^^

Need to see in person. :woot:

Well this year will be SMSP South Circuit, Ringwood Hillclimb and SAU Nats in SA at this stage!

Would love to have a crack at Wakie but time is an issue as we are short staffed at work so its hard to take a weekday off!

Oh, no delay there! I will do my best to get some footage to show how it responds! Best i can do for now ;)

    • Like a Stagea, but not as cool! Hope you have enough garage space for this, or is something going to leave to make way for it?
    • The new project has arrived. I have wanted one of these for such a long time, well before that meathead Clarkson drove one in Africa. I really wanted an E34 but I have some medical issues that mean I *really* can't bump my head and the lack of airbags in the E34 made it just too big of a risk.  I don't know why I've always liked these older touring BMW's to be honest, but man I love this car. She's been pretty well maintained for her 243k's with what appears to be only a single oil leak at the oil filter housing gasket. It has a bunch of updates including later model bumper and headlights, 7 series billion-way adjustable seats and it came with a few spares and another set of wheels with legal tyres. I got a unregistered car permit from the RTA and drove it back from Canberra on Saturday.                   First cab off the rank is cleaning it up for blue slip. I dont know how picky they'll be but I figured I'd clean the headlights, fix the oil filter housing gasket, replace the speed sensors (throwing errors) and swap the OE wheels (the M Sport wheels have a big chunk out of one of the tyres.) I also need to replace all 6 gas struts - 2 for bonnet, 2 for hatch and 2 for hatch glass. The car tries to eat me whenever i open any of these. My plan for this car; Ultimately, this is a budget car. I can't afford to throw lots at it and its because I have another car that I got this, if something breaks its no big deal. I will just maintain and repair it really. But eventually I want to do a manual conversion. It actually looks pretty straight forward for E39's and the trickiest part will be sourcing the parts.  I do need to replace some suspension arms or bushes because wow, she's a floaty old girl. She's also fantastically slow. Like really, really slow. When pulling back out on to the freeway on Sat after a quick pull over I needed to wait until no cars were visible before going.  Oh, and the guy I bought it from had a gorgeous R31 GTS-X in the garage. 
    • Do you have a picture? I assume it is a breather for gearbox oil as it expands, it should have a vacuum line run nice and high in the engine bay (R32 GTR has it on a top bellhousing bolt)
    • Hi all, I am putting an r33 gtst gearbox into a VL and have noticed what looks like a vacuum barb on the box (on top in the middle). Suspecting that it's a vacuum line but I'd like to double check, if someone could confirm the function of that would be great. Cheers in advance.
    • I’d love to find some where that can recover the dashes to look brand new and original. Mine has a very slight bubble, nothing compared to some I’ve seen though
