Butters

Awesome idea. Price will make it or break it. I do think keeping the HC working would be ideal. People like to have more, not swap. I use my HC all the time.

Guessing you guys didn't watch the video ? 120mph should get you into the 11's Your 60ft sucks though, tyres / track or launch. Ideally you should be in 1.7 range with that power and mph.

Looking at website, they don't list GTR but others are 60,000 CZK to 120,000CZK. One could "guess" 6k aud ish ?

I bought one. Been really needing a spare key. They are heavy, likely a low grade steel and coated. I am the worst at metals though so don't trust my judgement. I do expect the coating will degrade over time otherwise seems very solid. Will post a pic once i get it cut.

I am running TriboDyn in all my gearbox's now and so far working really well. Quietened down a gtr box with noisy bearing and it didn't like to shift great when cold. It has saved me from pulling it out and been going 2 years now. Also going fine in my syncro OS giken box 2years later.

Amm ... it tells you in the advert, "Style" is the code for china copy ........ "Nismo Style Key (Blank) for Nissan"

Weird ... my old pre gen label gt35 with .82 has 20psi at 4300rpm. T3 open scroll. Have you played with cam gear timing ?

Grant - https://www.facebook.com/gsautoworksau/ for mechanical work. Rob Turner also does top work and will tune also. Both shops get very busy though and often cost a bit more due to the fact only quality leaves. Then as I said Hyperdrive a great option for tuning.

So thoughts on the g35-1050 rating then ? What do you think is a real rating Hawkins rear wheel I think was 880hp with the g35-1050 and that was with the biggest rear housing.

1988 cars and some very early 1989 brought in under 15 year old rule before axed did not get compliance plates. Only vin. What year is it ?

Hyperdrive have tuned my RB26 for the last 13 years. Stock motor making 600rear still going strong. Andy can get pretty busy but know's his Nissans. Tunes all the usual too, powerFC, link, nistune, haltech, motec etc etc

How is the pedal pressure on the foot compared to stock and say nismo twin ? Also do they rattle like tin cans ?

I am just a bit cautious around the hype. These Nissans been making good power for a long time on some pretty basic ecus. Seems you get crapped on if you don't drop $4k on an ECU and all the setup. In some ways I regret doing it, its money that could have gone into other area's. I don't have flex or launch setup yet, maybe when i do I'll see more value from it.

Cool, no argument there, the extra feature set is nice. You just suggested he would get a better result. The only thing in the list above that could do that really is the tuning resolution, which makes a very small difference on a simple engine, my opinion ... not fact 12 years, 100s of drag passes, lots of events, stock motor from 1990 challenges your reliability statement a bit To be fair to you i do have a dash with logging, warning etc.

Lolz... my 12 year old setup still runs powerfc too ! Works great, runs 9's on stock engine with metal HG and studs. I put a link in it, made zero difference ..... except my tuner was happier. Back to the powerfc now though for general duties and link is in street car. djvoodoo, show me a back to back graph where an ecu makes more power swapping from powerfc ? Data , facts and such.

Any chance of getting the same graph with RPM ? Thanks for sharing. Lots of peoples opinions on this topic but as you say little back to back data without other changes. I am also with you on the bleed valve, used one for 12 years on one setup. Works great. Had some really mixed results with ebc over years. Now using ECU on another setup and its good but not a game changer.

Spoke to Alpha, confirmed slip yoke due to both sides being flanges as expected. Custom length is no issue. Will need to remove your current tailshaft to measure. Being Australian company, hopefully will see good after sales. Very helpful on the phone. They have an article explaining how angles and bushes are the bigger causes of vibration that a 2 piece can mask.

@PYSGTR going to reply to any of the questions ?

Not sure on most of this yet Ben. I am awaiting a second reply. From the pictures I have..... It is a complete T series box with adapter and standard gtr transfer case bolted on. It looks like they are setting up the shifter with a linkage, using the T56 shifter on the GTR position. I assume the following .... Use a quicktime bellhousing. Will be GM spline , I imagine usual T56 clutch slave options. Same as T56 rwd RB combos. I have the following questions also .... Will it fit in the tunnel. What length will it be. @BK Please tell me what bolt in options you are thinking of that can hold 800+HP with a Synchro ? Only options I know of are OS Gearsets (About 8K once you source box, sync and have built) Used Getrag (12k) - who knows how thrashed it is and rebuilds are damn hard. PAR / PPG ? None end up all that cheap. With this you have a brand new box, range of config options and current aftermarket support. Its one of the strongest synchro box's ever made. That all said, price might come back at 20k, so price has to be at the right mark !

So i contacted malwood. They do indeed do this combo(I have pics). Looks like they sell complete box only and not an adapter by itself. I have asked for pricing. Could be a really interesting option compared to a used getrag if priced well.

Using this you will have an SFI spec bellhousing solving one of the issues that I have no idea how some of the "street drag" manual gtrs get around. Obviously those that go auto have no issue. https://www.jegs.com/i/Quick-Time-Bellhousing/698/RM-7011/10002/-1

You can get a bellhousing of shelf for RB. 4wd conversion exist for chevs but are on the wrong side. Finding a 1000hp syncro box is not an easy thing.

Thanks for the reply ! These guys do a dog box with the rings seperate from the gears - https://www.6xdgearbox.com/ They suggest a dog is $300 ish AUD. Anything like that available for the GTR ? info for anyone interested

Was just about to say the same as Tobz. Lemons is a cheap car but safety kit kills the budget. On top of what he listed also have money for helmet, race suit etc depending on your tracks requirements. Those items in spec and in date can add up also, specially with a team of 4 that are all different sizes.

Ok... So why does it seem hard to get details on the cost to maintain the dog box's ? I read very mixed info of needing new dogs every 5k, some to most gears seem to have dogs built in, so your buying a full gear. Almost no on advertises the cost of gears and you feel like your wasting peoples time to call when you are in options mode. A real street car in my mind is going to do 10,000k a year and your looking at one or two gearbox overhauls ? At xx price ?
