Ohh so no T88 or anything nutso Fatz???

Heheh seriously Tosh, I remember wondering why so many freight planes leaving bankstown over the weekend, (truthfully quite a few were active) taking extra slabs down to keep fatz happy ehh?? hahah fatz reminds me of a simpsons episode which goes HOMER -All right, brain. You don't like me and I don't like you, but let's just do this and I can get back to killing you with beer, thats what it's like with you and your day job ehh fatz?? hehehe

mmm beer

big single would be nice

but looks like merlis turbos have just found a new home

but the best part is that i still have one good turbo from the gtr

will convince nath to put it on the capella engine and se if he can blow it up

might hit more than 110 down wakefield straight then!!!!!

na nath bought a 1975 mazda capella 4spd coupe when i killed the motor in my car nath offored to let me drive it at wakefield for the day

was great hit 110 down the straight spun out once and even overtook a r34gtt (sure it was his fist lap and he was probably only using 1st and second but still got him)

i love that car!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well from the feedback in this thread i've booked my car in with Nathan next Wednesday to take a look at a vacuum leak problem I have (damn these trackdays, costs me $1,500 in repairs afterwards for each circuit day :D). Looks like it could be a manifold gasket or somewhere in near the injectors, will know next wednesday arvo I guess ;)

Ah well whilst it's there i'll get a few other bits n pieces done to make it all feel worth it.

Thanks for the info.

    • It was roughly 3.5 hours.    car went in around 11:00 and I was done around 2:30 He did the initial runs, install the BC and then Nistune install and tune.  The best part was sitting in the lobby and hearing the skyline on full throttle at the dyno 😂😂
    • Glad it all went smooth. How long did the tuning process take?
    • Yeah that was kind of the same feedback my tuner gave me.  the boost tee is until I can sort out my plan for the electronic boost controller and what I’d get, where I’d mount the dash etc.  I’m happy with this until I can figure it out. Not a big fan of the A-pillar gauges. I’d like to get a clean install of the boost gauge - something digital like GFB.  Something like that might fit neatly where the ashtray is and look clean. I feel like replacing the OEM triple gauge is a bit extreme for a weekender like my skyline. And it’s not making crazy power to need all the additional sensors/gauges. 
    • I'm about to swap my box to Tremec T56 Magnum F & initially thinking of re-using my DCS twin plate (can get it re centred for the bigger spline) but it's been called out the box will be noisy (rattle) as the clutch is unsprung.  So I'm doing as much research as possible. I'm not so worried about holding the power as I'll go the track version which on paper will hold the maybe 1000hp I make. It's the longevity I worry about. DCS told me they don't use a sprung centre as it's just something that can break. The uni clutch has a very complicated sprung centre. Any one had or heard about any issues with it failing? Thanks in advance.
    • Auto is at least 10% (from my real, actual experience with different torque converters and manual on the same setup) ~185rwkw at 11.6psi (peak!) is entirely what one would expect without a FMIC or anything else on the intake, it does bleed off towards the higher RPM so it's what, 9psi there? Note: There is nothing that can be done about this with a manual boost tee. If you want to hold it steady and gain more top end, well - You will need electronic boost control.....
