Consensus on turbo blankets/beanies

He didnt indicate there was damage or an issue in his post race interview, but may be something he didnt know about.

Something is weird/off, the gap in quali and race was massively different, he was like 1s a lap slower almost.

If I didnt have the supra, exige if I could afford it, 400z otherwise. I dont think most 90s jap stuff is really worth the buy in price at the moment.

I think it was GM who said that he wants to to have it as part of the end of an existing race weekend, like a monday or something where all the gear and staff are already setup. Starts off as just a trackday and then if there are enough people willing...

[CussCuss]

They are making T50s versions which are race cars.

He said he looked at the new supercars category and they fucked with it too much so not going in that. But that kind of thing he has looked into....

[CussCuss]

Yeah theres a few vids about comparing some ebay spec ones to proper ones, pretty big difference.

Not sure I want to spend big $ on a custom one, but good to know people have had good experiences mostly....

[CussCuss]

Looking at getting one of these for various reasons, they obviously work from a heat management perspective, its easy to see that and there seems to be some data to suggest it improves response/spool - https://repositories.lib.utexas.edu/handle/2152...

He needed to go into debt for a mil or so to stoddart as well if I remember right.

About 180mm (can't measure exactly due to inlet) for a GTX3582R gen 2, I think the housing is the same size.

Might be able to figure out something from the tech specs....

I dont know much about us hondas, but thats what it reminds me of, some kind of honda coupe thingy.




definitely a step backwards from the original....

Oran park was twice as far away from the CBD, surrounded by bush/farmland and they still fucking took it down and put houses in there. Surprised it took this long.

I think MRT rep comes from the big $ builds which are quality because they have lots of cash thrown at them and their rep on the line. The day to day stuff is where the other side comes from.

[CussCuss]

Not a too bad price for those specs.

2LT with Z51 and lift is US$76k pre tax.

So thats 100k + GST and LCT which brings it to AU$120k. Adding in shipping and other random costs thats only about a 20k premium on the current exchange...

This is another option on the high side of $, but I do like that there is a lot of thought put in with a clean sheet design - https://www.6xdgearbox.com/6xd-gearbox-applications/

Haltech PS2000, definitely worth it if you can.

At the very least you should put it on the dyno to check how the AFRs are doing and make sure its safe.

[CussCuss]

This is a GT3582 1.06 with 264 cams, so will have a little less top end and slightly better spool. Ignore the boost measurement, it does not come on that late.

Yeah I just use the normal wash and its fine. Using costco microfibre towels and maguires gold in a foam lance.

Thanks, looks like these are cheapest way to get it with a 3 point https://www.simpsonraceproducts.com....5/Default.aspx

There is info about the testing here - https://youtu.be/30mjEbQ7RbY?t=1271 50%...
