is this car street registered ??

Yes this car is complied, mod plated and registered and i can organise a rwc for the buyer if interested.

Also i didn't mention this in the original post but i may be open to partial trade but only non turbo non import reliable (pref toyota/nissan) and 4cyl or less and only if its at a reasonable/realistic value.

Cheers

Jamie

PM's replied to.

Did a compression test yesterday afternoon, results were 150psi +/-5psi across all cylinders.

Very nice GTR-similar to mine spec wise Xept turbo's-who built it in Japan??

Garage Saurus???

Hi,

I believe Auto Garage Jin (not jun) did most of the work on the car and not sure but possibly may have been at top secret for a tune and possibly cam install as rocker covers are top secret gold and running fcon-v pro and top secret bag was in the car?

Cheers

That is a phat GTR. The only thing left to do would be some Harrops and a front grill to complete it. Free bump. Good luck with the sale bud.

thanks mate.

all pm's have been replied to.

will have more pics up hopefully early this week ;)

how hard would this be to road register within victoria?

any ideas?

I'm very interested. will keep in touch

The car shouldn't be much trouble to get registered in other states, i got a rwc no problem and have been pulled over by the cops a few times now and driven away with no tickets. Different states may require a few minor changes but nothing expensive.

Due to being offered some silly trades i'll clarify im after a 4 or maybe 6 cyl car naturally aspirated non import and must be reasonably cheap to insure.

No more pics yet as have been in brisbane for part of this week.

Cheers

Jamie

Can vouch for this car, very nice and very quick, not for any limp dicks... good work jamie!

thanks brad :lol: it was on low boost when you went in it too, so much faster on 1.2!

That is absolutely bombed. How could you sell it! :yes:

I don't really have a choice hey, my priorities have changed and obtaining a decent career is now my main priority in life, so the car comes second :sad:

    • Jap premium will be 100 RON. You should use 98.
    • The exhaust gases are at their highest temperature as they leave the exhaust port and enter the manifold. They cool as they flow through the manifold because they transfer heat to the manifold and the manifold loses heat to the surrounding environment. Thus, inevitably, the exhaust gases are cooler as they enter the turbo compared to when they entered the exhaust manifold. So, yes, the exhaust manifold can easily get as hot as the turbine housing. Having said that, you will generally see the highest temperatures where the exhaust gases have to slow down or they are concentrated into one area - which is usually the collector on the manifold and in the turbine housing, because the gases slam into the metal at those places, increasing the convective heat transfer coefficient and transferring even more heat to the metal than they might just flowing past elsewhere. Exhaust manifold heat shields are a good idea - certainly for the stock manifold they are there from the factory. People seldom have anything like that on a tubular manifold because they are hard to achieve. Some might wrap a tube manifold with fibreglass tape - but this has a reputation of leading to cracked welds. The best case is generally to put ceramic coating onto the manifold to prevent it getting as hot (internal coating) and radiating/convecting heat into the bay (external coating). All the real heat from a turbo comes from the exhaust side. The gases entering are at ~800-900°C and the steel/iron gets nearly that hot. The compressor side is only going to heat the charge air up to <<200°C (typically not much more than 100°C). So that's nothing, by comparison. The compressor is not a significant source of engine bay heat.
    • Late to the party, specifically joined this forum as I just bought one of these and this thread has been a gold mine of info. If the OP is still around, mind if I ask what gas you been putting in yours? Mine has a Japanese sticker in the cap saying premium but it seems to get way worse mileage on premium (95) than 91. I always thought it was meant to be the other way round🤷 I do think Nissans claimed "6l/100km" is a bit fantastical 😂
    • Does exhaust manifold get hot as turno exhuast side? I have a turbo cover to managr heat in the engine bay but  nothing is covering the exhaust manifold before turbo   i know as turbo does compress air, the temp does go up however does that mean exhaust manifold would be as hot?
    • It's excellent but I'm still breaking it in so I'm not 100% sure where it'll end up. I would say it's about 15% heavier than stock and the smoothness of the slip zone is quite progressive but you need to be a little patient compared to stock or it'll bite hard and stall. Stock I got away with absolutely horrid clutch control. Like I said before I couldn't even tell where the clutch would grab when it was stock so releasing way too quickly without enough revs it would just slip and the revs would drop lower than ideal but that would be the end of it. Currently there's a bit of a nasty clutch judder if I don't apply enough revs + find the exact wrong point of the slip point in the clutch pedal but it feels like it's slowly resolving as I drive it more. I would not recommend the competition clutch unless you really need the extra clamp force. I think this clutch combined with the Nismo operating cylinder is going to be exactly what I want. Enough bite that you need to remember the release point to avoid stalling or rough shifts, but progressive enough that it's not hard to drive by any means and not heavy at all. I tried a "super single" clutch on my friend's 997.2 Turbo 6MT and that was absolutely horrid. It runs an electrohydraulic power steering pump for the clutch power boost so there's zero feedback in the clutch pedal and there was a horrific clutch shudder well after break-in due to the lack of marcel springs or hub springs in the friction disk. It felt like the slip zone was the thickness of a single toe twitch as well so it was almost impossible to avoid stalling it unless you gave it a ton of revs and just dumped the clutch instead of trying to be smooth with it. I was terrified of pulling out in front of traffic. I have also tried some kind of "super single" on an EK9 and that makes this twin plate Coppermix look like a stock clutch. Releasing the clutch pedal even slightly too quickly feels like you're getting rear-ended. The pedal is extremely heavy as well and there's no vacuum assist like the GTR.
