So your saying eventually im goin to have to get it forged?

Mate, put it this way u can leave it like it is but it will break plain and simple, see ya going big bolt ons with out strengthening the heart of the beast, ya adding huge amounts of stress to a 26 year old engine, what do u think is going to happen, and not only ya engine but ya gear box clutch, tail shaft, diff, bushes, breaks.... Man ya have already bought stuff just bolt it on but don't complain when things break

And have fun that's the main thing

Mate if its a good safe tune your motor will be fine drive it with new turbo setup on to the tuners and leave stock injectors in get others fitted at tuners and dont boost it to after tune people are running 9s on stock bottom ends you will need a cam tho stock cams kill big turbos so make sure its a good tuner most important thing

Man ya have already bought stuff just bolt it on but don't complain when things break And the Motors still pretty fresh im the third owner the first was an older bloke that used it as a daily and had it rebuilt not long before my mate bought it he had it for Mac 3 months and stacked it pissed it was kinda a shame to cos it was one of Only 200 made limited edition calais wagon, since I've had it it's been on the road for 9 months in 3 years and ive been pretty tame with it because it doesn't have a whole lot for one and Im the only person in my area with a bright yellow vl turbo. And ive never seen the temp gauge on half it sits on one bar most of the time but as I said I've been pretty easy on it

They are in Dandenong now HTURBO, in the same workshop as G and D performance now, sweet as setup to, 4wd and a twin retarder 2wd dyno in separate rooms. Twin retarder for the big boys.

I know man, I didnt even know they were moving untill they were there. About 3 weeks ago. Its too hard to follow, but its the same guys from AVO Mechanical, and the guy who was the driving force behind G and D performance, all working together from the G and D factory, its an awesome setup.

How long till the gt42 is fitted and tuned let us how it goes cheers

I asked for the gt 40instead it still hasn't arrived expecting it tomorrow then probably off the the tuners the week after I'll post Up how I go with it all

Just curious on a couple of things. Flow potential? T04z with a .70A/R comp cover & a GT42 with a .60A/R comp cover. Because the comp cover on the GT42 is smaller it will boost quicker but will it run out of the efficiency range quicker than a T04z?

The comp cover on a gt42 is not smaller its heaps bigger than the t04z

Yea a to4z is 66m and my gt42 is 76mm

Here is a fun setup it made 270rwkw on adicted performance dyno. Gt35/40 .63 rear, 550cc Siemens injectors, 3" Zorst, cooler, haltec e6x, 38mm gate, std manifolds. It use to come up at like 2.300 n come on hard. Do this setup if u want a fun drive able streeter. Exactly what IDAREU says this has to be the best streetable setup performance for a street driven rb30 at present Spot on IDAREU your a legend Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
