return flow coolers can support 300

the turbo could be getting choked though if it's in a stock housing... Ric's, old hypergear did this before he replaced it with a garrett... i'd have a good look at this

could also be your china wheels or massive gayness

Wouldn't buy any car from Tassie after knowing what panelshops would do and send down there and the dealers would sell

Going through it now with Maggie, so far no issues. However it's a long drawn out process now, about 3 years

@Plattsy

Mate of mine is going through a super hard time for his PR currently and he is from the UK as well

yea its shocking isnt it!

made a point of speaking to my non australian immigration officer (!) that i was guaranteed acceptance on a last remaining relative visa, and simply chose the partner visa because it was cheaper.

tis dog shite.

Seems my engine has a restriction!

Making 260rwkw on E85, only 8rwkw up from my 98 result...albeit with good gains down low and in the midrange. So something is choking it up top. RP and I suspect it may be the cat converter, so tomorrow it's getting made more "functional" and then retuned.

Could also be return flow cooler. Could also be turbo too small. Could be any of the things that make my car look as stock and legal as possible. Not fussed about top end; I switched to ethanol for the awesome mid range, but would be good to walk away from the exercise with a few more ponies up top if we can sort out the restriction.

What sort of return flow setup you got?

They could of just dropped the exhaust and test if they had time

    • Those car show concepts from the 2000's and 2010's like the Floria and IDx were brilliant and should've gone ahead, at least one of them. But neither Honda nor Nissan are thinking about affordable performance any more, which is truly sad.  Even if Toyota's liquid hydrogen ICE development reaches the point where it's commercially viable and the infrastructure to support it, Honda/Nissan would have to wait until Toyota allow fee access to their patents to offer it with any smaller performance models they released to take advantage of it.  
    • A sporty manual RWD coupe with a IL4 Honda engine would only be a good thing I assume we won't see anything released for a few years though, unless informal talks and designs have been going on for a few years,  and due to the current, and future, emmisions and safety requirements, I assume anything "sporty" they would do would be at least some hybrid thingie And hopefully anything they are thinking of has nice lines, without lots of plastic and fake bits hanging off it like that horrendous FK8 that looked like it was designed by a 13 year old The other issue of course in the current market is cost, currently the type R is around $70k, a twin is around $50k Meh, I'm old and grumpy and would rather buy a older model car and waste my coin on that than buying anything currently available new  
    • Nissan needs to forget about building SUVs in every size possible and bring back the damn Silvia/200sx duo to compete with the 86/brz. Maybe with the Honda type r motor pointing the right way
    • Good to see you followed your heart, got your dream car and have it pretty well sorted out now. I think anyone can get caught out with a seller not being 100% honest about a cars problems. Can relate to all the electrical issues, had similar issues with my first car (mk2 escort) ages ago
    • I just bought the Nexus S3 for my gtt, haven’t installed it yet as I’m collecting parts to do everything at once…so far spent $14,000 The Nexus is nearly future proof
