plus what type of 400kw u talking about? u could boost spike to make 400kw, u could hit it with a farking 300hp shot of gas. or u could spend to $$$'s and get the power everywhere, not just being a peaky 400kw

i can't believe how wankerfull the '07 crew is :domokun:

a war with a clown indeed joshwa :domokun:

When will people be more like us Shane. They all forget what a real build is.

I think when people work out what a decent twin/triple plate clutch costs, along with a fuel system elaborate enough to supply 400rwkw, they’ll work out quick just what the real costs are for big kw figures, that last more then a few dyno pull's.

haha yeh man, only the people who have gone through the 'proper' build know the actual costs involved.

take ur example of fuel system, a complete system would set u back 3k atleast. thena clutch. then a gearbox. then a diff. axles. cooler, radiator. ecu. ebc. tuning. blah blah blah

rofl i alrady know that mate, i am reaching the finish of my project atm mate.

all i have left is a turbo and high mount manifold, clutch, emu

the point with the rx7= cheaper means to make the same amount of power it would take for a piston engine.

now before people begin to lecture a person, perhaps u should consider, that we are also educated in these matters.

its ova mate.

sell your 'porsche'

and get a rx7

your not gonna change my mind.

there is no debating this mate u cant win

end of debate.

Where did I say it’s my Porsche? I didn’t. I said I could be seen in one.

I’m not out too change your mind on anything. You’re just oblivious to what things cost. Sure, you MIGHT crack 400rwkw, but not without a big gas kit and it’s not going to last very long.

So your “400kw” rx7, really isn’t 400kw at all.

To use a word from someone very un wise.. People just can’t be “educated”.

got that mate, stuff i need (refer to previous statement)

not going for forgies, lol, so dont ask

all i have left is a turbo and high mount manifold, clutch, emu

turbo $2500

manifold $1200

clutch $1200

emu $2000

And thats on the cheap. Arent OS Giken clutch's and the likes still up around $2500 - $3500

thats a bit higher then what i can get the parts for, but most people these days pay retail for most gear.

yeah os twins are around 2.5k new. 1200 is for a jim berry clutch (what ive got to go in the gtr, he said it'll hold me to over 1000hp, it looks like i'll be seeing how real that claim is)

alright...how about get an rx7...find out its not as good as a 34 GTR, then buy a GTR....then buy a Dodge Viper :( haha gotta love vipers

A viper? lol... Yeh they are tough. But I would take the rx7 or the R34 before a Viper.

$3500 for the "and the likes" eg: HKS quds with carbon plates ect.

Jim berry is rather awesome indeed.

    • No-one in Aus/NZ would pay that much, because they remember when a turbo Skyline/Silvia was a cheap but awesome alternative to the mediocre shit sold here locally at the time. I'm sure over in USA there are enough trust fund kids who will have their R34 GTR, whatever the cost
    • I am stuck with enthusiast and very unhappy, even though Lumley, Shannons and Famous are all options, they all require a lock up garage, and my situation (basically a walled off compound from the street) is insufficient because the car is under a carport. I'm confident to resolve the situation I need to build a roller door with fascia in-front of my roller gate which is a solid opaque metal rolling gate. In any other universe moving the roller door 2 meters in-front of the garage door would still constitute the same amount of security but oh no. My insurance rates suck to the point of when I joined a market research for Enthusiast they were all surprised that I paid about 2-3x what other people were paying with Enthusiast when I asked them why their rates were so high. If I lie about having a garage, I save like $10 a month with enthusiast. (It's about $2600 p.a for 5000km of driving for a very unsustainable agreed value). Lumley has terrible reviews but @Duncan made me consider calling them when renew time came up - but their horrible reviews plus Christmas time made me... forget.
    • Not far. If all you want to do is know that they will reciprocate and move oil around a tiny bit, then a metre or so is all you need. Half metre fore and aft is enough.
    • That's the spirit!
    • It's fine. Basically if it has seized (eg due to moisture/rust in the bores) it will either break free on the starter or it won't turn....then you'll know it is freed up If it turns and doesn't start (reasonably likely) you will need to troubleshoot but most likely issue is a seized injector from moisture; same if it starts but missfires. Anything else could have happened (eg mice nibbling electricals) but the only way to find out is to close your eyes and hit the key I'd also change the fuel filter again after a few minutes of running as it may catch a heap of crap on first start
