  1. I find it heaps better for getting off the line consistenty each time, and boost is already there, just dump the clutch or it will smoke your clutch if it hasnt already, it should just wheel spin not clutch slip
  2. Its more than likly not holding boost in high gears, just the turbo is working hard enuf to make it boost cut,,realy not good for your turbo making it work like this
  3. Sounds like a boost leak, check all your intake pipes and intercooler
  4. Hey guys Does anyone on here have contacts with kelford, im looking at getting a set of 272s for my V5 heads, do they give deals for clubsub members?? or can anyone get them cheaper than there advitised price, Thanks

  9. Shouldnt be this if its getting spark and fuel thow brad
  10. Who rebuilt engine, is it all assembled correctly? everything pluged in?, just woundering to how come your tow starting a new engine??
  11. Hey guys My car has started to have an engine wine, ive got a few idea of what it mite be but thort someone may have had it before,, its a V5 sti, if i give it a bit of stick and at full boost and high rpm ie 5000+ then butten off the engine has a loud wine to it, is engine not drivetrain, is directly related to engine rpm as in wine pitch changes with revs, i thort it may have been my turbo on the way out but seems too change with revs too much for that,, was woundering if it could be a cambelt idler or something, does cambelt come under more load with high boost as valve are harder to open? its not a knocking noise so dont realy think its a crank bearing unless someone has heard of one wining before, The wine goes away again after abot 5mins of normal driving If anyone has anyideas it would be a big help Thanks
  12. haha yeh agreed cummins and cats are mint compaired to this,, just having look into it more and either sub frame gets droped out or engine comes out,, what a stupid design lol
  13. yeh thats gona be the next step before i go dropping the whole lower sub frame out,, im a truck mechanic not realy knowledgeable abot cars other than subarus, just doing this for a mate
  14. Yeh thats what I thort of but could have issues trying to seal sump up again,, and front diff runs thru the sump so im a bit skeptical about how much ill be able to force it down,, haha yeh deffinatly a pain in the ass job lol
  15. Yeh ive got all front end of engine apart allready but feels like its hooking up on presure relief valve (big bolt at under side) i dont want to bar it off in case it damages something
  16. Sounds like it could be afm run your code checks, or just unplug afm and see if it makes it run worse
  17. Hey guys has any one on here ever replaced a RB oil pump, its on a gts4 rb20det im wanting to know is it posible to do with out droping the sump, because thats a major being 4wd

  21. Thanks guys, was confusing me a bit but sounds like purple will be the go, Its not an auto anymore its been converted to manual, haha nah not bigend failure but i brought with suspected headgasket turned out to be a nice big hole blown in the side of the bore lol some1 must of been running extreme boost into it, Yip definatly grey injectors Its a facelift 96 my new engine will come with airbox piping etc just need to find a purple afm now
  22. Oh rite, from what i can gather from trademe etc it should have a blue afm but thort someone on here mite be able to tell me to be sure by going an eng model or chassis number
