HI

Been a few months since i logged on. How have you guys been?

Got some bad news (for me) which is good news for someone wanting to buy a clean freshly built gtr. Some of you know already, but i went and did something stupid a few weeks ago and lost my license for a year. SO, I'm finally going to have to sell my car (32 gtr). *smashes face on table*

Most of the older NSW people know I've been rebuilding my car for the past 2yrs now. It's very close to being finished now (perfect timing), so basically i just wasted A LOT of money on the car for no reason.

So this is just a heads up that it'll come on the market soon. If anyone is interested in it, PM me. I still have some things to do and money to spend on it to get it running.

The final car will have a run-in tune (so the owner gets to run the car in him/herself), new wheels, tyres, full rego (i'll rego it when i have a buyer so that the buyer gets full 12months rego).

It really f**king sux i can't drive it (legally) and i DO NOT want to sell it after putting so much effort and money into it. But there's no point having it sit around for another year. I'd be too tempted to drive it and get arse raped again by the long arm of the law.

so despite all this shite, all is well here (lol).

couldn't remember my username when i was logging on.. turns out it's still nipples.. lawl. *kicks shan in the neck*

Cant just make it into a track car for a year??? with all the money you save not driving to work, can spend it on hitting the track :D

I thought about that, but getting it to and from the track is going to be a pain.

Do you need a drivers license for track days?

I can exchange Nate for good and services too! Want in???

;)

I reckon track it too... I couldn't stand to sell a car after putting so much into it... I would never get the price I wanted for it...

same. no chance i'd get anywhere near $50k for it. probably going to have to let it go for half that! :( what a waste.

      Hypergear Turbochargers and High flow Services Development thread

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      Here's one I help build and tuned a decade ago, Garrett  GTX3071R Gen 1, T3 twin scroll 0.83 rear housing. Went from larger 272 cams down to smaller Tomei Poncams to help with the low end. S13 non VCT motor. Car was purpose built for the track, hence low down was the focus. Note the actual dyno chart shows lower boost, however the EBC and boost gauge showed 1.9Bar (Ignore the torque, I was young and didn't know how to set derived torque)

      Hypergear Turbochargers and High flow Services Development thread

      I’m doing some side developments on SR20det S13 engines, its one my hobby cars used it to compare flow capacity of some smaller size wheels. SR20det is one of another JDM legendary engines I'm sure there are plenty of SR enthusiasts on this forum, I will share results some common turbo configurations here. a quick run down of what the car is: Wide body 180sx Type X with black top engine (blue). It has: Stock bottom end Haltech 1500 ECU 5-0 motorsports trigger kit Kelford SR20DET Beehive Spring with Titanium Retainers Kelford Cams SR20DET S13 188-B 268/272 Cams G25-660 Turbocharger in T2 .64 rear housing internally gated ARP Head studs MLS head gasket 1000CC ID injectors Walbro 450L Fuel pump Front mount cooler kit JJR’s 3 inches turbo back exhaust (its too short for the 180sx it had to be extended) Pump 98 fuel Hub Dyno tune So far made 270rwkws at 22psi full boost by 4500RPM. Engine is very knock limited hence a pretty bad looking top end. From previous experiences it seems like SR20dets are happier with bigger size turbine, some thing like a GT30 would make way better top end, but on same time response is lost. It won't be a problem with S15 VCT engines. I'll be testing alternative turbine housing, turbine wheel and possibly dump pipe options for extra flow to resolve the problem and of course E85 would resolve all the issues.

      Awesome writeup and details. Thanks for sharing the story so far. I can relate to parts of it with my previous car and some of the issues I had to deal with.

      Wow the colour matched hard top completely transforms the car. Are there any nice front lip options for the car or is that off the table?

      Generally yes but for some reason I've been ruthless this time around!  I might even need to do another tip run after the way I've finally been able to hit the delete button on shit I've stepped over, stepped around and tripped over for the past 10 years!
