hey guys i found some1 who can do skirts i dont kno if it includes teh rear pods yet but they r like around 400 at the moment if we get a group..and problem is postage..cause we wil b sendin 2 differnt states i kno we would all want individual boxes comin 2 ur place but then it will b expensive and it should b basically the same price if 3 sets r in the same box..so if u kno ppl in ur same state that u can team up wit it would b sweet n cheaper
so does this sound ok and should i get more info like shippin prices etc

Anyone know where I could find another windscreen for my MZ21? Mine has developed a serious crack in it and there is no way it's going to pass a RWC. Please help, I don't think these grow on trees...

Heh heh...gotta move quick around here! Car is already sold
Mind you, I don't have 1.5k and I only paid a bit more than that for the car itself so I'm trying to keep the costs to a minimum. Novas? Do you mean Novus? If so I'll give them a try...I just figured that being an import with (to my knowledge anyway) no local variant they wouldn't have a windscreen for it. Current windscreen is a throwaway...

Ben

also for you guys sydney way, there's a dyno comp on at TM autosports at tuggerah, getting my car boosted up 2morrow in preparation for it. Even though it's not my new turbo thats on there yet, this is actually the bigger one capable of bigger power (but laggy hence the change) so should be good to see what she gets.

my 7m im just puttin in pumped out 284rwkw at 18 psi and like 264rkwk at 16 and 2 top it off hit 300.8rwkw at 21 psi

Last time I checked it made a little under 300rwkw normally, and a little over using octane booster.

Well if you think about it the more air that is being made from your turbo, you will need more fuel. I'm not sure if you have actually gone and done this though. Also I'm not sure what the injectors are like on 7M's. Also as everyone knows with 7M's is the headgasket, there will be more of a risk running higher boost levels. I Have nothing wrong with bleed valves. They work great for a cheap mod.

Oh yeah, used the turbotech 'restrictor' style valve to wind up the boost as read about on the www.skylinesaustralia.com . I would really reccomend it. The boost doesnt fluctuate at all!
|
If your talking about the one they sell on ebay and i think you are i bought one too, i really like it, it seems to work really well.
And i am too paranoid to wind my boost up too high, it sits just below 10psi atm and i am happy to leave it there.

no, it's pretty good for 16psi i reckon and hope this week when thr new turbo gets put on that we finally have no more hurdles in winding up the boost. My 1j has a few things done such as cam and cam gears, large injectors, FMIC, valve springs, h beam conrods, forgies, and has been converted to single turbo with the td07 which i'm replacing with a smaller ball bearing turbo to allevaite some lag. Also running a micritech ecu on it. If all goes to plan i should have myself a figure well into the 300's for rwkw power when i pick her up on thurs, will keep ya's posted

mz21_shiznac first off just its a 1G, no 7M hear. I have uped the boost to 14psi and its not hiting the boost cut, or in the 1G when the AFM maxes out. Now i am under the assumption that since the AFM has not maxed out it shall still be adding fuel along with the air. So what could be dodgy about that?
And in regards to this 'restrictor' style boost controller being dodgy, what do you think your $500 plus EBC does? Screws around with the air going to the wasgate in a similar fashion to this one. This boost controller completely eliminates wastegate creep and is extremly accurate.
Hey ndqcpr, yes is the same one as off ebay. If you have it sitting just bellow 10 psi, you are pretty much running it at stock levels. Aproxximatly 9psi is stock. I think you can go all the way up past 16psi before hitting boost cut or so but the little CT12's wont be anywhere in their efficiency range. Pump it up a little and you will love it more.

I did a conversion into my GZ10, its the early gen and on the dyno it was only running 6psi, so 10 is a bit higher, but i had a quick glance at it the other day and i think it was only on 9 or so. I do think i have only very marginally increased it though, and the amount of issues and effort that has gone in to getting it this far, i don't want to do anything that would cause me more money woe, so at the moment i will leave it where it is. MY car is around 1100kgs so 14psi on it would cause alot of fun, but like i said i am paranoid, get everything else working properly then i will go back to obtaining more power, but for now, i am poor and can't afford problems.
MR 1JZ
Yes i requested the stretch and its looking very nice indeed, i actually saw a pic and came on here solely to find more pics of it or abuse you for not yet putting them up
