Plenum sold, PWR intercooler still available
-
race spec 600 hp gtr will be quicker and handle easier but be chaeaper to fix after a prang- (cost almost as much too), this tail happy bitch is the best car i ever fanged on a track though (its unchanged from factory and does 12.3's with no turbo), sounds awesome but cost a fortune when somethiong breaks and i broke lots of things. repair bill for current prang more than 100k.

my race machine, this was taken a few months before i banged it into that wall just behind it there in the picture. r32 gtr on the way.

Rb20det To Fully Modify Or Not To
nedi replied to bLaQ.bOi's topic in Motorsport Discussion & Builds
Please let us know when you actually do the 1.36 winton and 1.21 at sandown. you would've or should've doesn't count. winton is open almost every friday and you can wait til there is no ferraris' in the way. wrx club, maserati club, hsv club all do timed track days sandown, when you have emptied you boot you should give it a crack and let us know. your dyno graphs mean nothing, any engine will produce those sort of power figures with a ridicolus 32.5psi boost. gtr will make those figures with 15 pound boost. we got 285rwkw with 16 psi -

just so everyone knows, i'm not suggesting you convert the car to rb26, i saying you should sell the thing and buy a modified gtr-the real macoy. you'll get all the mods for nothing. the gtr chasis set-up and driveline is just as important as the engine. i think converting your car to rb26 would be an expensively dumb idea. -

Mine, check out results at phillip island february last year on piarc website , 1.54 with standard intercooler, cheap coilovers (Jpc"s), cat back exhaust and pads worth $160 from howard at races brakes(fujimoto's not brembos). i spent a lot of time with john bowe insititute practicing at sandown but this was only my third time at phillip island. i was gearing down to fourth at turn one when i should have been in fifth so give back 2 secs there and give back another 2 seconds once i get to know the track. we ran 16 psi boost so as not to stress ceramic wheel turbo's. fact is guys, if you spend a few days with john bowe institute you'll outgro the rb20 real quick and then it wont be fun anymore. further if you shop around, you'll find a lot of r32 gtrs selling for 25K with all the expensive stuff already done, including bottom end work, which granted, is necessary for frequent track work-but this can also be said about the rb20. if you really want to make sure though,(my r32 has twin turbo 3 litre being prepared by jpc going in now) we can always find a bog stocker and meet down at the track to test it against the highly modified rb20. and another thing, check out trackday results for maserati club, wrx club and piarc and you'll see properly modified gtrs blowing the doors off porsche gt3's and gt2's. dynamically speaking, the chasis in the gtr's is just as good around the track as a porsche ( dont laugh my other car is a porsche gt3 rs). John Kennedy is doing 1.16's at sandown in his r33 gtr on street legal r compounds he rips away from my gt3 down the straights and stays with it. actually, even goes faster, in the corners. -Give him slicks and he'll be midfield in v8 supercars and carrera cup. he spent possibly 30k on his engine build and is frightenly quick. you dont need to go that fast but 1.22 or 1.23 at sandown would not be hard to get in a gtr modified for reliabilty with little more than a well oiled forged bottom end (which will come with the car if purchased correctly) these times are still porsche gt3 quick and awesome fun. I state loudly, even a rb20 with 20k spent on it will struggle to get near this time even with an experienced steerer. weight is definately not an issue with a gtr, they are extremely agile and handle beautifully. they are not noticeably harder on there brakes and can be just as reliable as the rb20 if tuned properly. remeber most rb's have done taxi k's, engines are not meant to last for ever and most will now require rebuild. that shouldn't concern anyone, its more to do with age then fragility. most guys thrash their cars around all day with no sump baffle, catch can and 300,000km on the odo t then winge when they break it and accuse it of being unreliable. Its not bullet proof, but more than adequate to do the job. i am interested to know the track times of the tuned rb20 everyone is talking about. -

i spent lots of time and money on th track, so please consider this advise. dont waste another cent on the rb20. once you get out on the track and start getting confortable you'll just want your car to go faster and faster and you'll end up spending a fortune modifying evrything to make it track worthy. before you even realise what your doing, (catch can, fuel pump, brakes. tyres, cage,) you'll have ended up spending enough money to buy a repectfully modified r32 or even r33 gtr and still have plenty of change. a gtr, sorry to say, will rip the doors off any rb20 all day long around a track. ( i dont care how its modified) further they'll be far more enjoyable and rewarding to punt around a track. it like first time snowboarders wearing all the crappy hire gear, as they learn, they buy all the good stuff to make the experience more enjoyable and also so they fit in and have the things all the other good snowboarders have. they same thing will happen to you when you get into trackwork with your car. dont underestimate how much you end up blowing on the rb20 to make it reliable and ,as well as track worthy. 25k might sound alot for a gtr but you'll spend that much on the rb20 within 6 months of getting addicted to track days. trust me i know. further, never underestimate how good a gtr is compared to an rb20 on a track. your loyalties to your beloved rb20 will dessert you real quick. a great engine the rb20 is not. spend the money on a gtr, a sump baffle, good brake pads and a catch can and you'll never look back on your rb20. and you'll actually spend far more trying to make your rb20 half as quick around a track as a gtr then you would buying a used(slightly mofified) gtr. -
due to some suspicion that has been raised in relation to a Pwr intercooler i bought from Blownnboosted (who was later labelled a known bad trader) and re-offered for sale in another thread, it is important to point out that the pictures provided here are the same ones provided by the original seller from whom i bought the plenum through sau. in the other thread a keen eyed member noticed i also used the original sellers pictures hence has raised concerns due to BlownnBoosted's 'bad trader label'. the original seller of the plenum does not have such a label and nor do i. also regardless of BnB's rep, the intercooler is brand new and genuine. i have not taken any of my own pictures so used the ones i had saved from the time of purchase (given i have never used either item, so they are still in the same condition). further it saved me the trouble of finding digital camera etc. i'm at 84 Lygon street Brunswick east, which is my business adress "viclend' i have 25 staff there in a mortgage management business which i have established and ran for the past six years. i am not a scammer or crook. I invite all to visit me there if they doubt my intentions. the website is: www.viclend.com.au we now have a second office at moonee ponds. the business phone number is 03 9388 8883. my email and mobile are in the opening thread. my name is nedi. further the price for the plenum is now $400. Pwr intercooler also $400. the original seller thread for the intercooler was at this location: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...pwr+intercooler the cooler was bought from him prior to "known bad trader" label. I guess i was lucky but the trade was successful and i now have the intercooler described in the thread and have not used it since the purchase mid last year or so.

Built by subzero to suit 9 second car (PVL 747) Same as that used in try9s that did a 9.5 sec pass. Immaculately built by reputed workshop. Never used Will suit single throttle body conversion. I paid $800 for it on sau. Not using because sponsor wants me to use theirs. Greddy equivalent cost $1300, hence this is a bargain at $500 considering it probably looks better and flows just as good. will ship anywhere. email on [email protected] or buzz 0438 600 350

6pot Brembos To Suit Gtr/gtst
nedi replied to MR33's topic in For Sale (Private Car Parts and Accessories)
can you pm me your number so i can call you to discuss -
i've just acquired a tough built race engine - rb26 head on rb30 bottom, to4z (single) ready to go on along with most of the stuff the rest of ya mentioned. including full cage and some race buckets and grex alcon 6 potters. I will have dry-sump set-up to be safe. i using motec so i can clear much needed space in engine bay--ie no air flow meters, new minimal wiring loom, all the standard crap/solenoids/pumps/vacuums etc bolted under and around plenum and everywhere else to go, battery to go behind the seats. i have removed hiccas and will run standard box till it breaks then upgrade to PAR dog box. should be thrashen it around at vic race tracks by october or november. and will also contest in gt sports series. i'm told it will qualify for this. currently doing 1min 21.2 secs in standard porche gt3(385 horsepower at flywheel) at sandown so i can steer allright. i let you all know how the set-up goes but my times will speak for the set-up more than anything. similar set-up by a sam mirkov in a white r32 sees him around sandown in 1min 15secs(on par with gt3 cup cars) which is dam quick so i hope to get a little faster than this. i reckon whole set-up will cost close to 40k including car(mine cannot be registered-race use only) you need to be savvy, and take some risks with second hand stuff and utilise e-bay and forums. Buying engine already done will save you thousands but be sure to pull it apart and check it to be on safe side even if it does cost a little more to do. good to see somebody with the balls to circuit race a car.. everyone else seems to be drag racing only
