Hi, Just got my car back today from RacePace. Ben & myself are very pleased with it.

I had someone sell me the wrong Spring for my wastegate - wanted 14.5 or 15psi spring but got a 25 or more?

Anyway Ben had a 10psi spring and the car made 284.6RWKW @20psi. I will be putting another spring in & try for 300RWKW.

The car feels great & Ben was right - It does feel like a lot more than 285.

Cheers

Chris

What size turbine housing?

Very nice complete setup. :)

Hi Cubes, I think it is 0.62 for the housing. I will check tomorrow. Sorry I have to go out again!

Cheers

Was yours the white the GTST? Was there at the same time as mine 'cept I was without mine for 10 weeks!

Nice result too BTW. :mellow:

Yep, Mine was the Polar White GTS-T with a couple of Scratches which are being fixed very soon.

you running a 3.5" dump also?

thats gonna make the difference that i didnt have :D

Also you got the slightly smaller one... hence the extra psi to get to 280

I'd take a staby-stab at it being a .82

If its a .63 then thats amazing results

Another quality job. Good to see that the stock cam'd RB25 heads pumping great power without the need to spend $$$ on em :D

Thanks Ash, I think you are right, more likely the .82. I must have been looking at the cover size. I'm not sure if it's a 3.5dump, can't remember. I will be talking to Ben tomorrow because he want's some feedback and I'm going to change the wastegate spring, maybe the whole waste gate.

What are your thoughts - Should I stick with a 50mm gate? or put a Original HKS 40mm one on?

Cheers,

Chris

Should be 0.82 turbine housing, not 0.62

if your current gate is giving no issues and its not creeping too much, stick with it.

The idea wuith the rates is to get as close as you can to ur target psi off the gate spring where u can... im sure you already know that :D

mine crept heaps (45mm t/smart progate) in 4th/5th under load @ higher speed when i was using 7psi spring/17psi (bleeder)

using a 14psi spring/17psi (via bleeder) it was excellent and stayed shut in 5th much longer

on 24psi with the juice it was just mental so i didnt have time to worry about it.

find out about the dump, be interesting :D

    • I should note too as I have all 4 wheel speed inputs to the emtron I now have the emtron controlling the attessa solenoid for 4wd/traction and launch control strategies. 
    • It works quite well with the adjustibility within each of the programs of the turbolamik. Essentially p1 is drive and lockup comes on like a normal driver.  But in program 7 I have customised it to not request the lockup clutch to engage until something like 6500/7 when slip was the lowest. 
    • Yep, I like that. The tags are only on the first post of a thread and we don't get huge numbers of new threads. Also, I plan to add some more report types and we could have a member report type like 'review tags' then members could flag if they thought a topic wasn't tagged correctly.  No way man, I dig the input. Thanks! 
    • It's a valid thought. There's not exactly that functionality already (when creating a thread) - that's where the OP can use/create any tag they want. We'd have to come up with a way for the user to request their tags get reviewed or something. Otherwise the mods would have to review every new post's tags (for those that have them, anyway). There's kind of that functionality already exists to some extent, post facto of starting the thread, where the OP or any other user could report the post to admins, and request that tags get reviewed. We could do this already, and any user could already have made such a request. To make it a part of the forum proper, it would require an initial and an ongoing education programme, so that people know that it's a thing. OP based tagging/request for review would also require at least some (probably most) of the user base to be told that it's a thing they can do. Both of these things probably wouldn't spread too far and/or get used very much. If it was the standard approach on a lot of different sites, then it might do, because people would be used to it. Prank's approach to this differs from my original thought, by leaning into tagging. Which is fine - it's possibly better than what I originally suggested. In fact, I just went to the R32 GTR wiring diagram thread and added tags, including "Library". That's probably a good way to use tags and the idea of a library. We just have to drag together an (organised!) index of threads or posts that have that tag. I have yet to do any of my own follow up by pursuing worthy threads and posts and reporting/marking/tagging them for the library, such as the @Sydneykid stuff I was talking about, and possibly any amount of @Lithium 's and others' posts. At least if I tag them Library, we'll have a start.   Back to @Wazmond's idea as it relates to @PranK's, we might have some sort of a list of tags that are already used to scrape for this library. I'm not entirely sure how that would be presented or used, particularly if it got long. But it's yet another idea!   cheers
    • Just a thought, but instead of restricting, is it possible to do like an "up for review" kind of thing? Where say someone who's not an admin/mod tags, it would require approval for it to actually tag? User posts with a 'tag' > Admin/Mod Reviews > Approves tag > Tag now exists kinda thing? Just came across this thread so Im not too sure if Im straying off topic or not but forgive me if i am...
