my bad.

no not me mate lol.. there is a few gillies :P i bought my datsun off a gillie..


im in qld.. the purple hilux i had was a ba purple with a little blue pearl in it..

Dave is my name, I thought it may have been you I spoke to in Darwin mid to late '07. if not then there is another Gillie driving a purple ute

i dont think that was me you were talking to :S it has a carter lift pump, 2 litre surge tank and bosch 044 upto a malpassi rising rate fuel reg..

who are you?

How come you sold the ute Gillie? last time I spoke to you at work you were chasing a fuel pump for it and couldn't wait to get it on the road?
That was a while ago though

yea the purple one.. sold it to a mate not long ago...

i cant remember racing a turbo torana..

i raced my mates familia, coz he was talking it up how he's running 30lbs and does 12's flat....


im pretty sure they went deaf when i flew past them changing lanes sideways gate cracked screamer doin its thang...


pete at tms tuned it at its current znd best yet tune and still safe..

was that yrs gillie little purple thing with massive turbo my mate raced u one nite with his turbo torana that was a rocket man

i would run around 12psi as a daily u will still smoke most cars on the street

i was running 8 pound daily in my old hilux sr20... gt3082r mind you.. then for fun times id go for 18lbs.. veeery tail happy hehe
it put out 175.2kw at the wheels on 12 pound, which is alot below the turbo's efficiency range

no..the standard T25 turbo will not maintain more than 14psi anyway. It will spike to 18 psi maybe, but will throw out your fuel mixtures and burn a hole in the top of your pistons on a hot day with poor fuel.

A full stocker should be run at 12-14 max if you run premium unleaded. And 8 or less if you put normal 86 octane normal unleaded.

To be honest..you should always have the budget to have a second engine ready. So many young fellas turn up the boost, blow the turbo or engine, and then end up driving their mum's barina (corsa) around for the next 2 years until they can afford to fix the car..

so generaly speaking you are more likly to blow your stock turbo before the stock engine?
