point taken, would probably try it then, BUT, how big is the esky you're using and what brand? and some have terrible terrible heat sealing.

it's about 30 litres i'd say and the brand is Nissan..... fo reel

what happens with car insurance and tracks anyway?

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahahahahahahahahaha

yeah heaps more in it, give me 12 months and I'd guess itll have ~500rwkw

the thing doesn't even have an exhaust yet! lol

no i mean as is... people are getting higher numbers that yours. isn't yours on a fairly "conservative" tune?

What kind of level do they start breaking things? Shafts, Gearbox etc?

Like a daily driven R33 you want to keep under 300rwkw if you don't want to constantly be throwing money at it for repairs...

engine and gearbox seem fine, people running ~500rwkw no issues

only issue is 400rwkw + mark with sticky tyres and generally manuals break tailshaft / drive shaft on a launch then replace with some stronger aftermarket components.

    • Duh... to answer my own silly question, it's actually described in the FSM... ...400 pages away at the end of the manual, for RB25DE/DET signal descriptions, it cites the TPSwitch signal action, is dependent on the TPSensor value ~ this tends to infer the builtin POT voltage signal is the primary, and the switches are fallback/secondary should the POT fail/TPSensor signal lost (and switch alone with no TPSensor signal allows for base idle speed setting).... makes sense... they (TPS units) used to fail/wear the POT with time, they're not exactly built to last ~ having the switch as a redundancy gets around this...(or, it's less likely both signals would be lost as they're on different power rails)... and of course wrt RB26DETT, you have to electrically disconnect the IACV solenoid from the harness, to defeat idle air control...  
    • Dose is unaware just how much fun 145-150kw would be in a 2.5L NC MX5. It would be one of the most fun things to drive to ever grace SAU.
    • Same thought crossed my mind ~ depends on how one connotes 'stalling'...ie; gets a rough/stumbling idle as it get warm until it stalls... or... idles ok and simply falls-over when it gets to temp... ...you can test the whole circuit with a couple of resistors ...unplug coolant temp sensor, bridge terminals with a 2K7 resistor (ECU will do cold start), or with engine warm bridge with a 330R resistor (ECU will consider engine to be at normal operating temp)...it's a quick way to check wiring integrity/ECU response when you don't have a multimeter handy ...
    • They also make them with the motor mounted on the side 
    • Just be warned that that turbo will not be a direct re-fit to the car. The exhaust housing is, of course, in the same place. It has to be - it's bolted to the exhaust manifold. So the dump will fit up. But the centre housing is not as long, so the comp housing will move backwards. This will affect both the turbo inlet and the outlet. There is fab work that needs to be done. Yes. it has one, it should have one. Paper gasket.
