I'm not sure how running LPG can allow you to run higher boost? I would have thought a pressure limitation would be down to the strength of the piston/con rod, rather than what fuel was ignited in...
You don't need to run custom maps on LPG setups. When you 'map' an LPG system you're really just getting the injection pulse difference set between the fuels, the cars ECU controls fueling and the...
60p is pretty pricey.. I pay about 54p normally, which is OK as the car needs SUL, which is over 110p around here (Reading, Berks).
A full 70L tank (63L fill) can see me cover 300 gentle miles at...
It's not green with Tein SS and R33 GTR rims is it? (I miss my S14...)

Yup, still got it. I was talking about my B3S in that thread, but ran my S14a on LPG also for a couple of years without any problems bar a couple of failing injectors (a touch overworked!).
I have...
My only reference in the real world was when I had an S13 and an adjustable actuator.. that was very stable and boost came in about as quick as possible.
When I had my S14a I only had a profec and...
I would personally set your actuator up to 14psi and then fine-tune using the profec B. My standard 120k mile T28 was holding ~14psi with a profec b and a std actuator.
I don't think that turbo is...
I'd get a chip, that very rich at the top end. Also, I'd expect your T28R to hold better boost over 5k rpm?
Speak to H-dev about chips :thumbs:

Hey *****, you can get the slower units for much much less money.. most are easily capable of handling anything your internet can throw at it.
I had to get faster units as I stream music / video...
I have a couple of these running across my house, I went for the Solwise AV (200mbs) units which not only look nice, they are pretty quick too. Solwise sell 'pass through' versions too, with a socket...
That's just crap... I firmly believe they and all law enforcement people should stick to the law unless required in an emergency (i.e. police / ambulance call).

Thanks for your kind words Mark... it's nice to know you can have a sensible conversation on this forum still without peoples personal and differing views turning into insults.
Good progress...
A true enthusiast would drive their car daily and many people buy 200sx's as they're a 'dark horse', an unknown quantity - how is that so different from exclusivity?
I came on the thread in...
That's just boll0cks :)
I think your just upset as you pass at least one M3 each day you go to work :D
The handling and power of my car are FAR better than any non-M3 and I would suggest on a...
Have you test driven a B3S or even seen one in Coupe form? ;)
It has custom Alpina suspension which, yes, lets you drive for miles in sublime comfort.. yet in the twisties will show most cars a...
Hmm If I had to choose between an M3 and a 200sx I'd choose an Alpina :D
Awesome cars, although I do miss that nuttiness of the 200sx going around corners fast - i.e. not TC, vast amounts of...
Auto S14a... that kits looks nothing like the quality I had for my S14s...
I'll try to remember to dig out pictures when I get home - there was a thread about how bad th epiping fitted together...
Cheap too :nod: :thumbs:
I am a bit out of the Apex scene now, but their type 1 kits were shiney last time I looked :nod:
Rich
BBK for E46 BMWs please.. there's a HUGE market out there and I'm happy to provide a test car! ;)
Brakes as standard are pretty beefy at 330mm and 328mm (F/B) but it could do with beefier calipers...
I had one as part of the GB from Apex.. I wouldn't bother, get a proper type 1 kit :nod:
1) The jubilees are cheap... I replaced all mine with B&Q ones which were soo much better! The Apex type...
:D just brilliant...
Hi Stdi, can you remove me from the reserves, I'm having my cars LPG tweaked at Redline on the 5th so I no longer need to run at SRR.
:)
Rich
Hmm, my old car hit 295 at 17psi with a stage 2 HD map... fuelling was a touch rich, but otherwise spot on when tested.
I ran a Profec B SpecII EBC, which worked a charm - and allowed you to turn...
The engine bay in the picture looks too big to be a fiesta... if it is.. prepared to have your arse kicked ;)
But I think he is talking BS :nod:

edit: Looking at the engine bay picture...
