  1. i still think this is THE BEST evo vid on youtube, this guy must have testicles the size of those gym bouncy balls
  2. sounds like vodafone around the world is crap.... they had a big thing in australia not too long ago with a class action law suit because the service and customer service is bloody horrendous.... and the people won, alot of people got let off of their contracts because of it too i believe, so they could go to a better telco provider
  3. pretty sure he means instead of plumbing it in personally, i would make it a screamer, but over here it is illegal to have a screamer, so i dunno about your rules over there, but it will be effing loud as for running 1 bar, dude, u cant hurt it if its tuned for more than that, the ecu is run on a map sensor anyways, if it cant see the boost, it isnt going to fuel for it, considering it isnt there
  4. i went and bought it yesterday arvo at 2pm, played the shit outta it, and then reliesed that it was 4am and i hadnt eaten lunch or dinner, it takes alot to make me play a game none stop, but this was just a great title great enough that today i put another 8 -10 hours in hahaha as for online, its not working so well at all in australia, so they have locked alot of the multiplayer stuff up till they fix it all, but im a bit of an achievment whore, and driving on every single road, gives u a large gamer score reward maps are HUGE to say the least, and being able to actually "test drive" the cars makes it fun too
  5. wow, some decent cars that some of u guys have had a crack at beating..... not to much eurotrash over here to compare to but this is a basic list of mine (you may have to google some cause u dont get them in the uk ) holden commodore VU ute (560hp supercharged 5.7 litre v8) beat him by about 6 car lengths over a 60kmh rolling start HSV clubsport R8 (current shape, standard car that produces 317 KW) EVO 10 (stock) EVO 9 EVO 8 (about 300HP ) mazda 3 MPS (230KW) countless subarus ford falcon GT-P (current shape, standard, 5 litre quad cam V8 supercharged 300KW+) ford falcon XR6T (turbo charged 4 litre 6 cylinder400ish hp, but these things are the aussie tuning scene's new supra, a mate of mine owns a 800hp one, and all he has done to the car is a fuel system, and put a set of valve springs in it, it also ran an 8 sec 1/4 mile time) and countless other cars a couple of modded single turbo supras, ricelines and silvias all in all, i think i like my gt more than any car i have ever owned, and i have had a few s15 silvia that made 450hp on a T04Z an aristo that made 720hp an st 184 celica that made 400hp a VZ HSV senator (current daily drive car has a 6 litre V8, and it currently makes a solid 350kw) and my favorite, an F250 work truck, had the 7 litre powerstroke diesel turbo in it... now they are a fun rig, mine done a 13sec 1/4 mile time, the rest, i never raced untill i got the starlet oh, and all power figures here are true power, IE : at the driven wheels, not BHP at the flywheel like u guys measure
  6. i have an emanage that is capable of running 1000cc rochesters, but the fuel that they consume burns alot quicker than pump gas.... if u were running E85 or a blend, you will defz need 550cc or more..... i personally blend my own race gas, i call it MD60 it has pretty much the same properties as e85, but can add a bit more timing and it will loose power before it detonates take 40 litres of 98RON premium unleaded gas, and 60 litres of methanol, mix it in a big drum, and pump it out into 20 litre drums and make sure it is airtight, as methanol absorbs water and the gas goes off i have found this blend to be slightly better than e85, but it is just as bad on fuel lines, and as such, i cant be held responsible for what happens if your car isnt made to run it, but it does work.... i ran my 500hp s15 silvia on it and from 500 on pump gas it was able to make a touch under 600 safely, my 750hp aristo got it for track time only and the starlet gets it sometimes too, but being on an emanage i have to change the injectors back to 550cc to make it drive on pump gas
  7. yes and no, once its out of the turbo and in a 3 inch exhaust, your not going to be able to make the velocity much faster, purely due to the size of the system... a decent exhaust shouldnt have to be wrapped on a turbo, as u want super velocity before the turbo, but after, u have no real need, i had my entire exhaust wrapped on my s15, but it was titanium and i didnt want it scratched or marked, but wrapping it did nothing at all compared to without it, and i didnt wrap the manifold in that either, as i had it ceramic coated with a polished look and didnt wanna ruin the look of my engine bay
  8. rears really cant be changed at all, quick question... do u still have power steering??? i have found mine to get like that since i took power steer out and put the coilovers in, its just something that u have to live with really.... im going to do another alignment on mine 2moro, so if the new settings change the handling at all i will let ya know
  9. on stainless steel, i would say do not wrap, it will cause cracking, i had my steel mani done and it was horrid when i pulled the wraps off, on a decent mild steel "STEAMPIPE" manifold, like my current one, i would say go for it... my boost comes on about 4-500rpm sooner, with just having wrapped the manifold, if i get a turbo beenie i hope to lower it some more... as for the rest of the exhaust, there is really not much point except to make it look pretty, mainly because its after the turbo, so therefor it is effectivly doing nothing at all (unless u are only using it to sheild parts from heat, like on mine i have the dump pipe wrapped so the clutch slave cyl doesnt boil the fluid and fade my clutch off
  10. holy crap guys, it costs u each year to have a plate??? i have a custom plate on my car (i have a few sets of custom plates though) cost me 415 aussie dollars currently on the car is "GTJ37" = gt jet and others i have are 800bis = boobies 04NAL = 0 anal 180ost = i boost 280ost = 2 boost and had quite a few others but sold them on for more than i paid for them
  11. they are called trade plates, it allows u to move a completely un registered car around with what u guys would call tax mot and insurance, in saying that, they cost thousands each year to have a trade plate for that reason...... i used to have one in my old job, we used to take track cars out on the street for a quick blast around the block
  12. right at the bottom of the plate does it say stulet - GTTurbo, instead of Starlet GT Turbo???
  13. start with the actual cooler, and put everything together, but DO NOT tighten it up untill its all sitting nice... 90% of the boost leaks i have seen are due to people starting at one end of the pipework and making something not seal up properly.... if u start in the middle and work your way to each end, u have a better chance of it sealing right
  14. roll cages have to be mandrel bent.... and the welding has to be "perfect" i have seen so many people make a cage, thinking they can, and boy of boy..... some of the work has been horrible, down to a point where i wouldnt even get in the car at all...... tig weld it all, or mig it if u have made mid skills, and make sure it is damn perfect before u install it in the car... because its a prick to bolt it in 6 times just to find out one part isnt made right
  15. none left, but he said he will probably be making some more soon..... i wanted a set, and tow eyes but i was a touch late only has front tow eyes left too
  16. are we talking 400 at the engine or at the tires??? get away from the crappy subaru flange and go to a t2 series flange... MUCH better range of turbos and personally i would go for a garrett before anything if u want 400hp i would personally think something like this 400HP capable turbo u will find a gt28 will get u there, u just need to look at compressor maps and figure out what your needs are... u cant just grab a turbo and hope it works
  17. love the gixxers man, i used to have a busa but i sold it cause i wanted more than a point and shoot bike in saying that, there wasnt many things that were able to keep up.... a turbo busa running nitrous is a pretty insane thing to sit on when its pushing close to 300hp at the back tyre, u learn to hold on reallllly effing tight lol now i have a tricked up brand new R6 painted bright orange its my baby, and my gf hates it, because the bike lives in the lounge room LOL
  18. yer, they are one of the more difficult cars to modify, if u didnt know, try finding nissan gazelle stuff, they are the exact same car just named differently
  19. almost makes it look like a mini and ugly chaser.... i kinda like the look, needs a few bits smoothed out for me to "love" it, but it would be a nice style
  20. man blue on these things looks PHAT trust me would have a darker blue though if i were to have the same car again.... almost the same colour as my starlet woulda been awesome
  21. i run a forged motor every day, dunno how it will go with the cold u guys get there though, cause i start mine and drive it straight away to get it up to temp as fast as possible, most of the damage inside a motor comes from the time getting to temp, so u will wear it more sitting there heating up the insides, but shouldnt be any more than a normal motor if its built right.... i know one of my old forged motors in another car is still going 150 000km later and it runs like a dream
  22. once again i think u guys have been ripped LOL in free play i dont have to buy the car OR the tune.....
  23. u use it in free play, u dont need to buy the car at all, just download the tune, start free play and tune the 98 supra i just started the game again today and posted a decent time

  25. bracing body parts doesnt actually work unless it is triangulated.... it looks good, but it wont do much else..... simple physics means they cant do bugger all..... more so when they have moving rose joints on them.....
