This is all good and well Mark, but running costs of a Built GTR are ridiculous as I'm sure your aware of. My 32 use to be my daily and my weekend car, but since it busted itself And I had to purchase the VT I've realised it's ok to have a thrasher for the week and keep the GTR for the weekend. 1 I can leave it in the sun and not care 2 I can hit the curb when I park and not care 3 I don't have to service the Kent as much 4 I don't need to clean it as much 5 it uses heaps less fuel then the GTR 6 driving the commodore on a regular basis makes it that much more special when you do finally plonk your ass in the drivers seat of the GTR on the weekend Otherwise if not for those things I would always drive the GTR

Stop ya sooking pete.. I'm up to my 5th engine now

Too easy man

You completely flushed that old fluid out before you put that 5.1 in didn't you?

Haha yes... Yes I have Thanks mate

Is there fluid in the master cylinder?

Looking to increase power and response for minimum work and cost??? I have for sale a Modified "twin turbo" pipe to suit GTR's It works by smoothly merging boost pressure from the rear and front turbo. If you look at a stock standard pipe you will notice that boost pressure from the front turbo is directed straight into the path (at nearly 90 degrees) of boost pressure from the front turbo. This causes air turbulence and reduces the efficiency of the turbos. By welding a plate down the centre of the pipe it merges the air smoothly increasing response and outright power. This mod is also used to prevent "twin turbo shuffle" At $250 its quite possibly the best bang for buck and safest way to increase performance of your GTR Located Sydney PM or Message 0432528844 pics to come

Hey mate, good to see your using quality parts all round I noticed your running the standard "twin turbo" pipe Would you be interested in purchasing a modified pipe that helps increase response and power and prevents turbo shuffle?

I do like that vent terry, though I don't think it will give me the turbo to under bonnet clearance, I need something that slight pertrudes as appose to inserts

Thread dig, Has anyone else modified their bonnet to fit a vent? I've had to cut some of my bonnet re inforcement out to fit my turbo so I was thinking I'll put something really subtle in. That way I can get rid of some excess heat/ have cool air onto the compressor housing

You will find that during high load situations you will get a small unusual vibration. Eg acceleration in 5th from 70-100kmh where the engine makes no torque

Does that answer your question?? Or are you asking about the vibration?

Acknowledged lol

What do u mean Ben? As in aftermarket cams?

Can also be a broken engine mount.. Will be the passenger side if any

Some are, some aren't so much

It may matter to you that Piggaz car has made a genuine 470rwkw with a standard box and NO modifications. So he MAY have saved you some time and energy

Depends what you call full boost, the graph in that link I showed you makes 30psi 4700rpm.. That's on a standard head with standard compression and shit drop in type b cams. You will need a spot on set up to make 600rwhp with the .91 rear housing on an 83/75

Na 600 max I would say, we'll find out soon Paulie

Well I had have an 83/75 on my 2.6 with E85 and made 420rwkw.. Value for money it is a great turbo but it won't make 700rwhp Results here http://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/414766-gtr-joeys-r32-gtr-e-flex-twinscroll-8375-results/ A new EFR or precision would net you better results

What Paul said.. Those turbos will make that power no worries Think smaller for the response

This is true, I wouldn't be driving it lol
