Yeah, has bought his S15.

The GTR is making 256kw at all four on 14psi. However its still running standard turbo's. Can anyone confirm? I thought maybe it would be 256Rear wheels rather than all wheel.

Thats a lot of power with standard turbo's for the boost level?

also from what i read, the best he did quarter mile is a 12.61(with a soft launch), i though it woulda went harder than that with 20K put into it even with a soft launch...... anyway car look swell looked after.

just get sum1 u trust to check the vehicle mechanically and for any crash history or repairs. always helps to have piece of mind, no matter who u are buying off.

20K goes along way with a RB26 and yet it still only makes 265kw??

Where did the rest of the money go? :)

Maybe he's holding back the real power figures?........go the GTR!! :laugh:

you do realise that power is not an indication of how good or reliable a car is right?

supporting mods wont make more power, but will make it more reliable. ie. sump extension, etc etc.

IT has bigger injectors, pump, cams and cam gears, power fc, new intercooler, full 3" exhaust from turbo back. It also has newer standard turbo's.

I myself couldnt see 20 000 right there either, but then again I dont know much about GTR's.

Which is why I thought I would ask you guys.

This engine was built using about $18000, it makes a lot more than 265kw and is has the strength and reliability to support it. So when it comes to reliability versus power, I think I realise more than most mate.

Hiiiiiiiiiiyooooooooo ;)

If he has spent $20000 on this GTR then I'd say he would have reciepts for where it went so just get him to take you through exactly what he's done to the car and that it has the right modification plates to go with it.

thats a slug power fighure for a gtr .. i only spent 8grand on new turbos n exhust i got 300kw at all wheels .. im sure his either not sure or hypin or maybe did a major engine rebuild mine cost 15grand on its on to rebuild

    • Cleaner signal so timing is more accurate at all rpm also found it to start more on first rotation but could also be I've nailed prime and crank fuel. For under $400 and 30mins of your time, its a good solution especially once the optical sensor does start to play up you won't notice it until in higher rpm and it heat soaks.
    • On a 400hp RB, what benefits other than "it's not 30+ years old" are you seeing from the NZ Wiring Kit trigger setup? If it were me going to change triggering, my belief would be to go for a crank trigger to remove the issues caused by what people claim is belt stretch etc, but that's from my understanding a much larger issue for super high power, rather than those in the 400hp and below club.
    • The NZ wiring kit is a 1/3 the price and will be perfectly fine for your application, I've ran one for 6+ years and many others have. Comes as a full plug into factory connector and the settings for a Link. https://www.nzwiring.com/index.php/product/trigger-kit/ Always comes back to the tuners knowledge and experience with a tuning platform. It takes years to become proficient and learning all aspects and capabilities. I've been using Links for 16 years now (rb and sr paltforms) and always learning something new with adding tables, diagnostics and data logging. Stay 98 for the usability and keep it simple so you can enjoy the car more. With experience I'll give you a current example of the industry I am in. They use Motec m190 and only use VE tuning when they have a torque mapping available and would solve the "PARITY" issues that plagues the category all because the muppet doing the tuning doesn't understand the platform or want to learn it and the product seller have no idea on its full capabilities ( I had a good laugh as when firing up an older car that just got completed and they didn't understand the injector scaling or how to change it for different fuel being used)  
    • I'm sure there are specific hygrometers for it. But if you can just throw a high enough ranged temp sensor (theromcouple that came with your DMM, for example) into a pot of it on the BBQ, you can see when it boils.
    • I have multiple bottles in a shed that gets hot, and I'm in SEQ, so it's humid. Maybe we test their theory... Anyone have a system to accurately measure moisture content in oil?
