Ghostrider, that bar you posted is the same as my car has I think

Same as this one? http://r30map.zive.net/~userjun/r30meeting...003/image76.jpg

This car is quite similar to what mine was like when it was imported... mine also had the HUGE wing, but no cage, and its white

I used to like the Ironmask front, but I think it looks silly from any angle except about 45 degrees. The MR30 style front can look tougher I think, but only if it's done right

Gonna go check if my bar is the same now

************

Yep, thats my bar. One piece glass.

Wouldnt mind seeing a pic of that bar with a standard front

Adam,

What I'm playing with is:

1. stock lights with iron mask bonnet & cut down stock HR grille, fill in bottom space.

2. stock lights with cut down iron mask grille

3. same as above with either standard DR front spoiler/air dam

4. same as above with my front bar/air dam.

Will post the hashed results when completed. Thought I might sell my MR30 Hatch with iron mask lights, grille & standard bonnet, same as the jap guy. Would be diferent look for here.

Sorry guys,my bad.I was meaning that it had a 31 Blinker custom fitted to it,I know the 31's are in a different location stock. :D Of course it's not anyway,I forgot the later 30's had that style blinker. :slap: I was still thinking of the old "square" type.

HR31 flares are avaiable from R31 House,and there's spose to be some guys from "R31 Skyline club" getting copies made up here.

i gather this is your car and that amount is what your looking for!!or is this the add for that one for sale ages ago cause there are more than three people here with paul newman versions 2door anyway??

just got some updated pics.....i do have some engine ones but there too big so i'll have to get them smaller!! those rims will be resprayed black later as they look more gold than black at the moment!!

just looking through that website again and found this one, this is what i want mine to look like when she's finished, one day!! that is the kind of rear wing i want and a nice new front bar, something like the one ghostrider posted up resprayed would be great. looks like i'm a long way off!!

Hey guys I havint been on this forum for about 4 or 5 months and seem to have missed a bit. Far out this one big thread allright 850++ post and 30 pages wow. Anyway ive got a 1984 HR30 Skyline 4 door sedan which is now in the prosess of having a Mazda 13B Rotary engine :D (yes I know a very odd swap but very original) so far its had motor fitted to make the engine and gearbox X-members, its been paneled and repainted in a nice bright red with a silver pearl and plenty of sparkle, and the interior has been redone with a momo 320mm, new carpet, 2 black racetech bucket seats, black rear seats out of a f15a mitsi diamante, Autometer 5" Tacho/Oil pres/Water temp and fuel pres gauges the wheels are 17x8 ROH ZS's, just sent the motor away to get rebuilt and ported, rear disc end out of turbo model been fitted, now have to decide what im going to do with the suspension/breaks, (probably go with s13 fronts, with r32 gts-t 4 pot's and dont know with the rear yet) Just as long as it is fully sacked out hard!! and im waiting for my r200 lsd to be rebuilt so I can chuck it in, waiting on my turbo cosmo 5speed to arrive from japland also and my custom made 4 core alloy radiator and no dout I will find a few other bits and peices to do or rebuild as I go or get more cash. I will have the car on the road by september 25 (a while away but im in no hurry because thats when I get my licence back if I get it going any earlyer I will end up driving it and geting in trouble). Please dont be to harsh on me for my choice of powerplant for it :D

    • Because there is still an engine underneath that turbo. PSI is not a measurement of power, it's a byproduct of resistance. What would be really decent is to have a CFM gauge on the output of a turbo to see how much it's actually pushing. 21psi (as an example) is not the same amount of air at 3000rpm as it is at 7000rpm, even if the boost controller is controlling boost at "21psi". The engine is inhaling and exhaling way more air at 7000 than at 3000, even if it's less efficient.
    • don't want anything more or less, I don't really understand why the torque still goes up to 6000-6500, while the boost peak is around 4000. if it only comes from the cams or from the boost controller etc.  
    • I'm not sure you understand the physics of what you are asking. Can you draw on the dyno graph what you want to have happen? I'm thinking this is a functional impossibility here, unless you chose a turbo literally so laggy that torque is at max at 7000rpm and artificially choked prior to that. Power and Torque are intrinsically linked. Power is just Torque over time. What you're really seeing in the torque graph is "Power per RPM" if that makes any sense whatsoever. You still get more power at 7000rpm than 5000rpm, because it is "power per RPM" and you have more RPM. at 7000 than you do at 5000. You still feel more powerful at 7000rpm. The torque graph will influence the rate of power increase per RPM.
    • Welcome!  If possible,  would live to see some pics. How long was it away getting the work done? Hopefully it feels like a new machine.
    • yes indeed the graphic format makes a visual difference but there is on average 120nm more between 4000 and 6000rpm on the curves it is not nothing. you are right, the cams influence the torque curve. I was able to chat with one of the Hypergear tuners, he confirmed that a boost control allows you to manage the pressure after the spool. the absolute pressure (psi) on the graphics is measured where? It seems that the cams affect the maximum pressure depending on the regime but I may be wrong.   not pleasant to drive before 4000? if we spend our lives between 1000 and 3000 rpm as you say then we might as well just run diesel turbos
