Hi all, havent posted in a while, anyway finally finished my slight mods to my R32 GTR, 28-60R-5 turbos, 800cc sard injectors, power FC dejetro, blitz DSBC, Trust intercooler, oil cooler, Tomei cam gears, etc etc... Had it tuned at CRD the other day, made 308awkw on 20psi boost. Played around with an F6 Typhoon the other night, seemed to have it covered, not sure how much work he had done to the car, had the numberplates "BEWARE" we were mucking around from rolling starts from about 80k, still managed to pull away slightly. Also it should be noted that I run the car on 18psi not 20psi, and it made about 294awkw at 18psi.

.

Anyway like I said, car is tuned and going great, Im happy and ready to go to WSID to see what it will do. Did a practice launch to see how it would go??? and??

.

The clutch gave way and slipped! F#$K!

.

Now, Im running a single plate ceramic clutch, which I thought would be up to the task, however this clutch was in the car when I bought it so I dont know how old it is. I had the clutch checked about 6 months ago and was told it is still in good nick (by a clutch specialist). Went back there the other day and was told the clutch is stuffed. So one dump with 300awkw and the clutch is gone! obviously all the dyno work didnt help.

.

So now I need a new clutch and it doesnt stop there, the other day I noticed my diff is now whigning, went to a diff specialist, the crown gear is worn, he said it wont break, But will progressively get louder. AND now I have also noticed that the ATTESA pump seems to be playing up.

.

So any way when I get some things sorted I will hopefully make it to the track and see what it will do!

.

Ill post up the dyno graph when I can upoad it.

    • 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!
    • I just quote the Rolling Stones. Paint it black.
