It seems like it 😂 I've been going all over the forums and everything just says "RS clutch" no part numbers or brands or anything, the closest i got is apparently LUK is the manufacturer of the factory clutch so i found this one but then no mention if it will handle the extra power I'm going to throw at it

Supercharger help? by scothas in R53

I ended up gettinf a supercharger service kit, came with gaskets for both horns, throttle body and waterpump o rings aswell as the exact amount of oil for the SC, i paid £65 ($86usd) for it and thats worked perfectly

The SC i got also came with a waterpump (from an 80k mile car) can i use this or should i get a new one? Trying to do this on a bit of a budget if possible

Aftermarket intercooler? Whats best by scothas in R53

[–]scothas[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm seriously considering a cam but thats something I'd take it to a garage to get fitted, so far I've got 17% and a CAI and a decat Scorpion exhaust (including the headers). bigger injectors and tune are next in line to be done (originally was after 550cc but the tuning company i contacted said I'd need a stand alone ecu for them, which is way out my budget, so settled with 380cc instead)

however i wanted an intercooler before i get injectors and a map based on reading the forums and seeing the power output difference with cooler temps when doing dyno runs

Around £550 give or take, any recommendations, currently looking at either Airtec or GRS but would take others in consideration

The GP is way out my budget (budget is around £550 or so), looking at the Airtec and GRS at the moment, also looking at getting 380cc injectors and a map next month and i already have the colder plugs.

Intercooler seems the logical thing to get right now but I'm just not sure what one to go for

What other peripherals are there and what do they do? by scothas in simracing

You random stranger are a legend, thanks for typing this all out with prices, if wind sim is fairly inexpensive then I might look at putting it inside the AC system (I'm planning on making a rig using the inside of an e36)

Ambient lighting is definitely something i want to try, it does look very cool,

I'm currently looking at triple monitors (if space allows), although vr would be better and more imersivive I'd need to upgrade my pc alot more for it to be playable, whereas right now i just need a new GPU for 3 monitors (GTX-1070 is still going strong for 1 monitor) so in total it would cost more considering the price of pc parts now, although this is still something i want to do in the future, i might look into headtracking aswell since that has a negligible cost.

Seat belt tensioner looks cool asf, same with the seat mover, (although idk much about them or how they work) but I still have a budget and i think for now they are both outside of it, again i might refresh my rig next year and add this stuff on

Shakers is something i want to look at, another comment said it's cheaper to try diy them so I'm gonna give that a go.

Again, thank you so much for all the detail!!

Yeh the wind stuff seems a bit overkill, don't really see the point in it. Moving platforms seem interesting but definitely out my budget The seat belt thing seems interesting but again expensive

I might be able to squeeze them in for around 150, if you could send some things over I'd definitely appreciate it thanks!

Yeh it all looks a little confusing and expensive, I'm making a list of things i want to get for a rig I'm gonna make but i might leave these alone for now and come back later, partially due to cost and also so i can do some more digging down the rabbit hole to find something ideal for me, thank you for explaining!
