Maybe! Would fit over the rear brakes, No tyres I assume?

Keen if I can get some better rear wheels/someone lend me some 4x108 15s for some beer? Or anyone know of some for sale? preferably 7" wide min?

Capri, turbocharged pinto. 195kw @ 18psi.

13.8sec quater @ 162kph

Could be keen to fly up perhaps, in the vaguely keen category right now as lots on in coming couple months.

Fuck that is one badass clean cortina, love how smooth the engine bay is! Good work.

Japrace also does all this stuff as I got a bunch of them couple years ago.

Keen as for any weekend but the last weekend in feb for the short run. Round hills one we did once was fun, just have to make sure I strap my battery down properly this time...

Hahaha where is Blenheim! good call. Blenheim is 30 min from picton, hour and a half from Nelson. Ahh yoeddy lives there, PM him. Or I may be up there to check on things in couple weeks if you cant find someone.

Awesome, this is the sort of shit I need to know. Would be pretty keen on something off another car as be cheaper than a brand spankin' garrett.

So 56 trim compressor, and the T28 I have being a 60 trim, that makes it smaller I assume, is that going to make much diff? And the exhaust going from .64 to .84 I understand and going by garrett site looks like it will work well. But yea, explain compreessor housing?

The GT2876r looks like the business 280-410hp, that's on first quick look though. But fuck, just over 2k for a new one from nz performance! Looks like exhaust housing is same as the T28 have currently so downpipe should bolt straight up as well I assume which would be super handy.

Was looking for some info/help on deciding turbo upgrade for my turbo pinto. Currently making 195kw on 18psi with a t28bb off a s15, running it on bit over 20psi when drag racing, which is pretty much out of the efficiency of the turbo, and the dyno map shows it pulls untill around 3600rpm then starts tapering off, then dying off completely by 5500rpm, rendering the last 100rpm powerless. This shows when racing to, as have awesome acceleration but alot of people are owning me because I'm efectively plateauing in the higher revs, it's super responsive in the lower revs which is fun but now looking for that pull right through to 6500-7000rpm.

So yea, without going stupid big turbo, what would be a good upgrade from a t28 to make more power and pull further through the revs. I currently have a T3-T25 flange converter so turbo would have to be either of those, probably T3 spec no doubt.

Cheers.

What a cool wagon, I dig it hard. Shit your driveway looks like a cunt...

Ah yes you are who I was looking for confirmation from, thanks buddy.

Sweet, think I may mount up one then as will be way easier/cheaper.

I have a question. Being lazy etc/whatever. Instead of hooking up speedo cable/getting custom one made etc, have heard can mount up a gps unit and use the speed thing off that? I don't see why not however what is the cert man likey to say?

Keeeen. Someone let me borrow 4x108 wheels!

Damn will be travelling back late friday from work so will miss out. good luck to those entering.

Damn that climbs quickly...think I found inspiration to go get mine certed and put a larger turbo on now haha

Get a vid of it driving please!

Damn son 200kw atw, nice! Are you f*ckn serious about 230 on 32? haha You must have one bangin strong pinto, love it!

Changed the pads!

Done. And hopefully that was it. Haven't heard the noise again so fingers crossed that's all it was.

Will look tomorrow after I try find a wheel brace or such. Seriously have no tools whatsoever with me, all still in my van 6 hours away..hoping it's a stone between back plate and rotor, pads don't look overly worn.

Ah sweet cheers boys. On holiday in Nelson with next to no tools on me, hopefully I can get hold of someone to borrow some to change em out. Thanks again!
