R33 did a total about 12,000km.

Nothing interesting just all standard Corolla A-B duties of shopping, driving to work, driving to my mum's house...

Only interesting bit would be pulling over to overtake several slow cars who are buched up in one go during one of my many trips to Albany (~430km drive).

You end up running that 34SMIC?

I hope to get up to next deca and maybe have a battle with ya Simon :bunny:

Yep been running it for a while now... Previous owner put on a GTR front bar though, so get minimal flow through the sides of the bar compared to the stocky, lol...

PowerFC sitting on my desk here at work, delivered 2 hours ago.

FMIC, Oil Cooler, Bosch 040, Z32, 550cc Injectors are all in various forms of transit towards me as well.

Now to decide between a Highflow R34 Turbo or a 3076R lowmount... Hmmmm

Good work!!! Gotta love knowing you have parts on their way!!

Buy neither. Buy my standard hi flow lol. $500. When you get sick of that skip 3076 and go T51 or something :whistling:

Go the 3076.

Car still going to be daily once it is tuned?

sounds like what i had done to mine, except i had a bad install and going to the manufacter of the turbo in melbourne to get it fiddle with just made it worse (Hypergear ATR43G)

i assume your talking about a Bosch fuel pump? i hear the stock ones are actually pretty ok for power up to about 260KW or so, had a 400 buck Sard one put in but now so broke im thinking of putting the GTR pump that was in there back in and getting a refund on the Sard (mechanic agreed to refund as he didnt actually call and check if thats the one i wanted before installing it)

some say i should just keep the sard if i can afford to..

opinions?

oh and LOL at the comments on la bombas posts, very harsh but couldnt help cracking up a little. Seriously though he messed up his eyes a bit, hope he recovers ok.

Clocked about 5k on my 121, sold it.

clocked about 1,600kms on the r1. For sale.

Clocked about 2k on the gtr.

Gtr in October, was low on oil, spun a big end, cracked the crank.

Was meant to get machine work done through friend of a friend to be faster....

December, get block back, and parts.

Assemble, reinstall, has 672km of run in so far.....

    • Nah no bearings, just slip fit.  Would be a reasonably challenging but not impossible job to modify it to run bearings but I'm hoping that's not necessary as I may have well built one myself if I end up spending hours modifying it!
    • Brumbys with good shells are bloody expensive, I've looked at 2 "cheaper" cars, and walked away from both,  plus after some research spare parts are fairly sparce I'm starting to think that I missed the boat on finding a clean one that is straight (ish) and without alot rust I'm starting to think about a old Hilux as panels and other parts are much more available as they sold tens of thousands of them I use to be indecisive but now I'm not sure
    • A Brumby would probably fit a big metal toolbox in the back... this is how it begins  
    • Picked up a new OEM boot seal for the MX5 today as the old one got ripped a bit by me being a idiot by seeing if I could fit a large metal tool box in it, it didn't fit, and ripped the seal with the corner of the tool box I am still waiting on time to get the cams and new balancer installed, as well as the repairs to the boot Time will not be an issue soon though
