also Dave why the rb26 covers? Usually gtst owners just put the rear gtr badge on and leave it at that :) .....I'm expecting you to say something about oil control here

We all know they look better :P

  • 3 weeks later...

Bolted the turbo on today and fired her up :down:

Battery is dead, 3 months sitting there will do that.

Had a few dramas with the wastegate not lining up right with the new covers so it was back and forth from Craved Coatings to get the housing done in time. Rego tomorrow.

I cant thank Chris enough for pulling out all stops to get all the coating done in time. Thanks mate!

Down to JEM tomorrow to get some minor things sorted. Tuned very soon :)

Would love to see some pics of catch can setup!

When do you plan on taking this down to the strip...? Did you run the old set-up down the 1/4 mile... would be good to get a comparison between the two set ups!

Really would have loved to have seen what it would have run on a GT30R, I am really confident on a clean run it would have rewritten a few viewpoints on what you can do with a GT30R. That really could be 10s power with the right situation.

OK back from the dyno with a mixed result.

Made 390rwkw at 25psi.

Still big power but way below what we were expecting.

Adam said it should have farted out 400rwkw.

I had semis on the car the first few runs (silly me)

Pulled them off and put road tyres on, pick up 10rwkw.

Adam was pushing it but just couldnt get to 400. So he pulled it back a bit and made it ultra safe for the big thrash at Powercruise.

No boost leaks that we can see, held 25psi really flat.

Might just be the china spec cooler i have just isnt up to it. But with only 3psi pressure drop from hot side to cold side its still flowing ok.

I just wish it stopped raining so i can see what it feels like on the road.

T04Z *cough*

but yes power does seem down a bit, butters over here is running a stock rb26 with a 35r and e85 making 415rwkw on less boost

T04Z is a bit laggy for my liking.

And yes Simon got a great result.

I made 360 with the GT3076 at 23psi, so i only gained 30rwkw with the GT35 with 2 psi more boost.

Just doesnt sound right.

    • People still have Skylines? I thought they're non-existent now. 
    • Harness update time have had great fun and learnt so much already so far with this project. I started off making both the ignition and injector sub harnesses in the hope any mistakes i made here aren't as hard to undo and learn from as the main harness.  A cool comparison of the old harness using presumably TXL wire and the new which is using Tezel. Also opted to use DTM plugs to keep the whole setup as neat and tidy as possible and tucked the wiring under the coil bracket to try and keep it all from sticking out too much. Although the injector harness, I'm not overly happy with as I'm still using the rubber boots that are supplied with the type of plugs it just looks ugly and sticks out like a sore thumb with the white identifiers so a slight redesign may be done.   Then it was main harness time and most importantly trying to route it nice and away from the heat it will use the OEM heater hose routing which is no longer present to keep the harness up high and secure. it's amazing how much smaller this harness is able to be compared to the old one. plugged everything into the emtron and with the help of the tuner again attempted to start it up and instantly fired up and running smoothly on all 6 which was a big shock to myself. So still some routing and adjusting to be done for the final fit up and installing a knock sensor harness plug which is in the post all has gone surprisingly well.     The old harness for shits and giggles.
    • They do that at random every now and then, with almost no detectable cause. Mine has done it a couple of times (over 25 years!!). Never worked out why.
    • I don't post on here and have been lurking for some time now. Many of the topics have helped me out more times than i can count. I was racing yesterday (11/9) and blew a front right CV shaft. I have spares so I popped a new one in. A thread i read previously said to check the engine mounts if you blow a front CV. Upon inspection, the front right mount was completely separated from the upper plate. This discovery saved me time and money, because i would have blown another CV if i went back out. Just wanted to thank you guys and wish everyone luck with with their builds. (Now if we could only come up with a solution for my power steering belt flying off after hitting the rev limiter, lol)
    • Either way he still need those style of spacer to go into the manifold because the photo he currently has is not going to work
