Do not replace stock with stock. Endless MX72 pads, and AP J-hook rotors. This is a winning combo and is being run on dozens of R35's here in Australia alone.

Ironically after posting such a detailed post on how to prevent P2832 in this thread, I just got P2832. Looks like I've broken Shift Fork A. Very tempted to build a box properly, as I have no doubt at some stage I'm going to want 800+whp.

Got one in Perth in stock if you're keen. Brand new of course. NIS-006 with TCM. $1,499. You can pick it up at any time. Shoot me a message on 0402 418 697 if you're keen.

ADM GT-R's do not have speed limiters.

PM Sent. You're in luck

P2832 - Shift Fork 'A' Position Circuit Range/Performance Solution for the aftermarket appears to be the TSB Clip (assuming your car is 2011+). Taken from 'Jacks Transmissions': ( http://www.jackstransmissions.com/pages/gtr-gr6-clip-tsb ) The shift pistons in the valve body make contact with the forks and move them into position. If these pistons wear, the forks and sliders will no longer shift properly and can be damaged. This is a common problem with the GR6. Prevention is to perform this TSB. We have never encountered these problems again after performing this TSB so it has become standard procedure to install clips in every unit we touch. APPLIED VEHICLE:2009 – 2011 GT-R (R35) For 2009 - The MIL is on and DTC P0729 (6GR Incorrect Ratio) is stored, For 2010 - The MIL is on and DTC P0729 (Sleeve A1 Function) is stored, For 2011 - The MIL is on and DTC P2832 (Shift Fork A) is stored, Here is a picture below of the wear. Note the circled area. It doesn't look like much, but that is enough to cause thousands of dollars in damage: The clips will allow for better contact with the piston and prevent the wear or failure. There are a series of magnets inside the piston which will become out of range of the sensor if the assembly wears too far. This will prevent the system from recognizing where the piston is moving and the unit will shift the fork too far as it doesn't know the forks location. This is what will break the fork along with the slider. This simple TSB solves any issue you could ever encounter with the fork or sliders. Well worth performing while you have your pan out and this TSB can be completed while the trans is in the vehicle.

If you do get your cobb fixed in time (or the shop tells you) please post your error code. I'm assuming it'll be P0797.

It's stainless steel, but we do a catback brand new for R35's for only $699. I'm running it on my car (with dumps and midpipe) and it sounds great!

And the results of this.... Took it to the drag strip last week: 10.94 @ 124mph

More mods! Now have the full Empire Performance 'Stage 2' kit installed on the car. $5,500 for all the parts required, and this is the result: Stock power: 416awhp @ 11psi (570Nm) Now: 538awhp @ 17psi (761Nm) Still running BP 98! Feels ridiculous now. 34% increase in torque, 30% increase in power. Will be going to the Motorplex the next chance I get.

The team here at Empire Performance are excited to deliver a new product to the world of R35 GT-R owners! These premium dump pipes boast a high flowing design which ensures a huge performance gain over the standard downpipes. To reduce the annoying excessive heat in the footwells of both the passenger and driver, as is a common complaint with R35's driven in hot conditions (ie. here in Australia), the dump pipes are dual-layer ceramic coated to reduce radiated heat from 170 degrees, down to only 60 degrees! This ensures that no matter what the ambient temperature is, basically no heat will be radiated through the footwell, and the temperatures in the cup-holder sections are dramatically reduced. These dump pipes have been fitted on my own personal R35 and the decrease in footwell temperatures is instantly noticeable in hot weather, especially on the drivers footrest which was previously ridiculously hot if your foot ever touched it (driving in thongs for example). We also offer ceramic coated mid-pipes, and complete cat-back systems at competitive prices to provide you with the ultimate heat-dispersion exhaust system. Price - $795 + $55 shipping Australia wide. Turnaround time is about 2 weeks from purchase to delivery as each item is made to order.

Sure it's not just the usual bellhousing rattle?

LOL - yes, we don't sell 'purpo' paint. Couple of updates: Plugged the COBB AccessPort into it the other day and put a map in it from COBB, 15psi and relatively aggressive. Saw a little too much knock on a data log, so decided to load a more conservative 14psi map into it as I won't get a chance to throw it on the dyno until the 22nd. Also loaded up LC5 (launch control from the 2012 models). It now paints all 4 off the line and launches from 4400rpm. So good. Took it to the motorplex tonight. Only did 1 run - 11.32 @ 121mph, 1.72 60' time Intakes, inlets, dump pipes,injectors, fuel pumps all should be going in next week Video from a run with Brendan in the car, was still an 11.5.

Cheers I can't recommend these cars highly enough. It's an evolutionary mile in front of my old R33 GT-R. You wouldn't have heard of us (Empire is my company) as we've only been supplying wholesale parts to Western Australian shops for the last 6 years. We are only now expanding the 'brand' into selling retail Australia wide. We're also a sponsor on here. I can send pictures of the hard-pipe kit to your e-mail if you're interested (just shoot me a PM). The piping kit is only $499, but naturally for that price they are fabricated in China for us.

Yup, I'll endeavour to get that done. Did you notice any HP increase from just the exhaust? I just picked up the following: COBB Accessport NIS-006 SiR 1150cc injectors SiR 290lph fuel pumps SPD 65mm turbo inlets Empire 76mm Intake kit Empire FMIC hard pipe kit Empire Downpipes Looking forward to seeing what it makes with these mods on 15-18psi

Pretty standard failure. Talking to a few of the boys who do some work here on the West coast, they all seem to do it between 25,000-40,000kms. Sounds like you got to the very limit of age / kms before they let go. 'South Side Performance' now do complete plug-and-play sensors for the R35 as it's such a common problem. They're only $200. Your biggest expense will be labour: http://www.sspperformance.com/product/gr6-transmission-pressure-sensors-/

My current favourite, shot for a RaceWars poster:

They took about 4 hours to do it (and didn't charge me) so I'm not entirely sure what they did. All I know is it made a very noticeable difference to the way the car drives. It's substantially better now. That is a handy feature. I have no idea why they set it to kick out of R mode from the factory, very annoying!

Following this trend, I thought I'd try a china stainless exhaust off E-bay. Picked up a catback for about $700, and a midpipe for $260 (after a couple of bids) plus about $100 delivery all up. Honestly, at that price I really couldn't refuse. Seems good so far!

$105k + on roads. Yup, am looking forward to the COBB installation. The transmission had it's software 'updated' by Magic Nissan here in Perth, and they apparently put all the 2012 settings into it (without LC5). I still think there are improvements to be had though. Cheers

Worked it out, cheers Ash I'm so used to having to use HTML on forums!

I'll look into the turbo's in a lot more detail as the time comes. I won't be going to that stage for probably a year or so anyway, so it gives me plenty of time to research. I forgot to add, I'll need dump-pipes as well, which are already bought. Not sure why the videos didn't work! Can't seem to ember HTML code here... Free-rev: Fly-bye / downshift:

As of last weekend, this is my new 'daily'. I previously owned a ~620rwhp R33 GT-R with a T04Z, built motor etc etc. That was a great car, but by the time I worked out how much I had spent on it, and what I still wanted to do with it, it was actually cheaper to just bite the bullet and by the R35. Specs are: 2009 Nissan R35 GT-R Dark Metal Grey 32,000kms There are quite a few mods in the pipeline, and I have already fitted a full exhaust system (Midpipe and Catback) and 15mm spacers on the front, with 20mm spacers on the rear. I have a few goals for the car: Goals: (will tick them off as they get completed) - 10.5* or less 1/4 mile pass - 54.* or less Wanneroo Short-track time - 550hp at the wheels The idea behind this car is to be able to achieve my goals for under $10,000. As such, the planned upgrades are as follows: Empire Performance Midpipe ( http://myworld.ebay....ire_performance ) Empire Performance Catback ( http://myworld.ebay....ire_performance ) COBB Accessport NIS-006 with TCM control ( http://justjap.com/s...ufacturerid=101 ) Empire Performance Intake + Intercooler kit Bosch EV14 1100cc injectors (http://www.gtrlife.c...-in-fuel-pumps/) SiR in-tank fuel pumps (http://www.gtrlife.c...-in-fuel-pumps/) SiR Stage 1 turbo upgrade (http://www.gtrlife.c...rbos-2500-core/) I'm hoping with these mods it'll do about 550rwhp on 16-18psi (may not actually need the turbos to do this, but we'll play it by ear). Some pics I've owned the car for almost 2 weeks now, so it's definitely time for mods. Here's the latest: Dyno'd it completely 100% stock to get a good baseline figure. It made 415awhp at only 11psi.... not a bad base to work with!! Right after that, we fit the new Empire Performance exhaust and mid-pipe. The weight saving in this is HUGE. I'm guessing the new midpipe is about 15kg's lighter, but I'll weigh the old one shortly. Old Midpipe: Old vs New: New midpipe and catback: Now it sounds like this:

Sold!!

We're flying Jetstar. I think they want about $800 return for them. Accomodation is easy to find pretty cheaply. Anyway, if anyone does want it, contact me either on here, facebook (Paul Brockbank) or +61402418697
