supercharger kit!!!!

And JBSautodesign.co.uk is aligned with CustomCode so if you went with a turbo kit from them then there would perhaps be support for ECU tuning over here in Aus. I don't think they do a supercharger kit though...

The car worked really well, I cited a few large receipts for work carried out, but none regarding the initial cost of the conversion.

AFAIK the VF kit is no longer available, and they have since gone turbo.

I was really impressed with the driveability of the SC R32, had lots of great shove, drove like OEM with a hell of a lot more.
Downsides were for me I wasnt going to sydney every 7.5k kms to get it serviced. Packaging was good, but to change air filter or headlight globes the front bar needs to come off. You need an oil catch can, because the breather drops oil straight back onto the MAF so this one kills them every 3 months. If you want more, for such a compression motor you need to do it all again.

Pluses. OEM feel, no upgrades to the drivetrain are really necessary, lots of good constant shove. No really loud supercharger whine (well more of a whistle). Twin Forge BOV's weren't overly roud or ricey and going off all the time.

HTH

hmmmm so VF/GIAC gear is the most common used in aus and no one has dealt with hpa kits before in aus?? um with this breather drops back onto the maf would this happen with the hpa kit?
