Yeh im in canberra. Surely there is someone on evo oz up your way that can take you for a fang! The hks evc on my car is playing up at the moment because of the way its wired in (ecu 12v source), so as soon as the car has decent load the power gets cut to the boost controller and the waste gate opens and feels like the car just shat the bed.

What was your power goal mick?

Im hoping there ain't any evoOz guys in here lol but I find a majority of them to be *toolscough* so don't really use that site anymore. Im only looking at the most responsive 300-330kw I can get with a stock framed turbo on E85 of course.

The green with like 28-30psi should get you into 300s with plenty of torque, the red definitely will with less boost but will give less torque as well. The red would be a street weapon on a 2.3L

All I can say is if I had the choice again id go the bb green

Mick O, your 33GTST was da 'bomb, it was an ultimate rwd streeter. Is the evo 9 much of an upgrade except for the awd? If it was me I wouldnt sell that 33 except if I really had to get an R, just sayin..

Haha thanks Ron it was an epic car and i do miss it :( It just really hauled ass lol!

Yeah the evo is a great car doesnt go like my 33 did (yet) but for corners and just being a great fun drive id say definitely an upgrade :) name="rondofj" post="7052746" timestamp="1380934387"]Mick O, your 33GTST was da 'bomb, it was an ultimate rwd streeter.

I'm pretty keen to chuck a HTA 3076 on my R34, does anyone have any idea how much modifying it would take to get it to bolt to the standard manifold? For example I've been looking at a GTX3076 and it's gunna cost around $1200 to modify things like spacer plate, dump pipe, intake pipe etc. as this is based on the garret turbos am I going to be looking at exactly the same costs?

    • Hey everyone, just wanted to let you know about an app I use to track the modifications, repairs, servicing etc I do to my R33 GTR. You might like to use it as well. I'm biased because my son just wrote and released it! But I think you might find it useful to... https://trackmymods.com  
    • Hey everyone, been on here for a while, but never introduced myself before. 1st import was a R32 GTS Type M, then R33 GTS, now R33 GTR - each one sold to help pay for the next one. Over the years my son has seen me modify and do changes to my imports and was one of the reasons for him to build an app for car enthusiasts like us. (He can only afford a 2007 Honda at the moment, but he'll get there!) Anyway, bit of a proud Dad moment as he's released an app that I use and you all might like to as well. https://trackmymods.com  
    • It will sound tragic and you wished you didn't have 1x exhaust per turbo. There's a reason why most S55 owners change to a single mid pipe.
    • Echo the comments about the well preserved condition it's in. It has the aero bumper too for extra points. Nice car, and please keep it like that! 馃檪
    • 1. There are no real performance benefits. It sounds different, and as the pipes are not as large diameter you can claw back some undercar clearance or run lower (if that's your thing). 2. Twin pipes, offering exactly the same cross sectional area as a single pipe** will have higher pressure drop - so will not flow as well. That's because there is more surface area of wall per cross sectional pipe area, hence more frictional losses. ** But of course, it is almost impossible to get 2 pipes that are exactly the same XS area as a given typical single pipe. eg, 2x2" is not the same as 1x 3", although it is close. If the 2x pipes add up to less XS area than the single - it will just be flat out worse. If the 2x pipes add up to a bit more than the single, then it might come out as a wash. If the 2x pipes are substantially more XS area than the single, then it will probably flow a little better. 3. No. Why would there be? What have cats got to do with boost creep?*** ***But for f**ks' sake, please run a cat. 4. If you want.
