From what little playing around we got to do indoors the converter seems fairly tight but I would imagine it has to be reasonably tight to hold over 1000hp to 6000rpm. I'd say we'll have to get the gas in fairly earlier to get it right up on the converter quick enough for racing. I dont really want to get it in to early if you no what i mean as it makes massive torque quite early. May even have to look at doing it progessively, like 50 in at 3k the full 200 in at like 4500. We'll just have to see when we do a bit more playing in a fortnight.

let us all know how you go with the box holding input shafts, I have one in a GTR here with only 450rwkw no nos and havent even used the transbrake yet and have snapped 3 input shafts the last of which was a custom made 25mm chromoly unit. (standard is 21mm).

Looks the goods Dave, cant wait to see it run

What box are you running though and what have you done to it overall??

Yes that's right -30 bottom end.

Colour spectrum - it's out there i know but when you got it flaunt it i rekon plus the paint job was sponsored by Mandurah smash repairs and Creative works - so i simply let em go! Not for the street but hey that's not where it's going to live hey?

Thanks for the sensible comments guys , as you would all be aware it takes a lot of effort, $$$$$$$$ and know how to get one of these GTR's to this stage,after all they are really a circuit car.

Being a purist at heart I have endeavoured to keep her as close to all Nissan as possible, right down to the box. We will then be able to compare Nissan GTR with Nissan GTR if you get my drift!

Admittedly the Nissan products have all been modified and strengthened but is'nt that half the fun?

The box is basically the same as yours but forward pattern.

Balanced carrier input shaft,

over sized and honed front carrier,

Kevlar bands

billet clutch hubs

extra clutches

high flow pump

over sized pan

billet servo

hardened chrome rings

new planetries, gasket, etc

full billet valve bodies,

TCI converter

These are what I can remember, it was built by Keas, and I am under the impression that yours even though it was not built by Keas will have some of his componetry in it

Ok - let me ask you this - are you using the re4r01a box?

    • I might have to shoot them an email. Pity the exchange rate is so bad at the moment. BTW, thanks for posting that table makes interesting reading. 
    • Add these Sensors -Wideband, Oil Pressure, Fuel pressure, Intake air temp Good inspection of ignition system of coils, plugs and loom (12v feed and good ground)- a r35 kit is best bang for buck upgrade. A decent tuner should be able to see any issues with the trigger system- a link has good filtering but a good simple upgrade is the nz wiring bolt in kit. Check and replace all the fuel filters- you would be surprised at intank filter after a few years. Also good to check for any leaks on vac hoses and pipe work as has been said. No need to go overboard and spend big $$$ to enjoy the car. A quality tuner is getting harder to find as anyone with a laptop thinks they are a tuner. A link has great features to check sensor voltages and frequency inputs and easy to see live by pressing f12. The link can do a TPS & RPM fuel/ignition mapping on ITB cars then add a 4D table with MAP and ability to add a 5D to it (can help with economy at cruise with wheel speed vs TPS) Where are you located as that will help narrow down a good tuner ?
    • Reviving an old thread, I reckon my stagea is starting to slip. Car usually gets parked on a hill, narrow driveway so cant go up the driveway smoothly, anyhows, lately first gear feels "sluggish"? Not responsive. Feels like I gotta run the engine more than usual to get off the line...  Any recommendations for transmission servicing in Sydney? Or possibly just an excuse to go manual ?
    • Well, moulded carpets should fit well if the buck they use is the right shape. The finish is then just a case of stiching the trim around the edges. Shuoldn't be too hard to get it right. Back in the day, replacement carpets were all "fitted", in that they were stitched together, with cuts and slices taken out to make them form the shapes. Many more opportunities to get it wrong, hence all the concern over good vendors and bad vendors.
