Hi Guys,

Before mods say anything, yes i know there's 2 other threads about this, but i thought rather than bumping that and possibly not getting a reply, i would create a new thread

(i believe i did ask for them to be closed)

Anywho, due to unforseen circumstances, sadly one of my drivers has had to pull out. Meaning his R34 GT-R is also unavailable.

If anyone has an R34 GT-R that they would like to lend (you will be driving) for my wedding that would be greatly appreciated.

Details are as followed:

Date: 9th September (Wednesday)

Time: Pick up of groomsmen will be from Hills Motorlodge on Windsor Rd, Baulkham Hills @ approx 12:30-1pm (Reason for this time is this is the latest check out time we could get)

From here the groomsmen will need to be transported to Loxley On Bellbird Hill in Kurrajong.

Now the actual wedding Ceremony doesn't start until 3pm. But there may be photo's taken of your cars before hand.

And after the ceremony, there will be half hour/hour worth of photos.

Then you are free to leave.

Payment: Approx $2-300 for 4ish hours. You will also receive copies of any HI-RES photos taken on the day of your vehicle

Now i know how my other threads turned out with people asking "What about maitenance costs?", "What if there's an accident?" etc etc. If that's the only reason your going to post something in this thread, please do not bother.

It's simple really, if people want to help out, make some quick money, they will. If they don't want to. They wont.

Terry has offered his beautiful machine.

I just need one other car

Hopefully someone can help.

Nick

hey mate, i think u should try PMing moei (aka MRGTR911). Seen his car in person a few times, and it is undoubtedly one of the nicest r34 GTR's going around. He also took a mate of mines brother to his formal in it, so i dont think he would have much of an issue driving around for your wedding (assuming hes available).

also met him few days ago at GCG, car sounds pretty damn tuff on idle etc, so im certain it has balls to go with those looks.

all the best mate

Oh well...

Back to PLAN D Nick!

Booking a Test Drive from Uncle Garry at Top Secret at Blacktown...

Specifically from 12.30 to 5, 9th September... and parked most of the time to have photographs taken of it!

btw Victor bought his new R35. I wonder if he's sold his R34 GTR yet?

I'll call him Wed. Heck it's August already!! :(

Happy Horse's Birthday everybody!

Don't knock the horse! Predecessor to the motor car! :angry:

Black Widow,

I might be available on the day and i'm willing to help you on the day, PM and provide me with more details!

I've got a black R34 GT-R, enough? :P

The way you park this 'Black Beauty' means that you don't ever get gutter rash either...

hehe...

Look forward to the meeting...

And let the cameras start clicking...

Cheers, T

    • Hi Yes we're a bit optimistic we might get something out of sealing up the two pipes of the external wastegate and reactivating the stock one. I believe the orginal stock wastegate was tack welded shut. It doesn't budge and visually looks closed and sealed. The car has noticeably more lag so it could be at least part of the problem, maybe all. It's definately one of the key changes made since last tune. And it's one that's more difficult to fully understand and measure, not like for instance timing or cylinder compression.  Thanks for that feedback, we'll let you know how this progresses. Fingers crossed.   Regards Rob
    • Transplanting the vvt from a 25neo into an rb26?
    • Well, I was going to say, "Is the wastegate set up so that it is not leaking?" That's actually a different thing to what you're asking about. In theory, if you have allowed the two halves of the manifold to commmunicate (more than the stock manifold does - which is at least a little bit) then the negative effect should be apparent in delayed spool, not in outrigth power. OK, maybe just maybe, a badly set up twin scroll wastegate "crosstalk" might kill the top end, although it's hard to see how. What is happening with the original wastegate in the turbo? is it sealed off properly. If it's left flapping in the breeze, it will f**k everything up. If it is still there, and can be returned to service, I'd be capping off the external (presuming the two halves can and will be isolated from each other after doing so) and have a go with just the stock wastegate. I have an internal wastegate in my highflowed rear housing. The bigger opening and flapper should be fine to >250 rwkW. So there's not exactly a pressing reason to have the external. Done right, an external will give better results. Done wrong, it might just be possible to have worse results. Report back!
    • Hi Rob It's a nistune ecu. Yes same shop, good reputation. Apparently the computer on the dyno is compensated for temperature.    Chris was saying that the lean or richness of the mixture would be covered in the actual tune, but he's already picking up in advance that it's under what it should be. Regards the dyno, it's also noticeable on the road. But I just want to add something that has just come in, it appears there might be something in the setup of the external wastegate. In the exhaust manifold there is a centre divider between the front three and rear three cylinders. The external wastegate has a pipe from each side that join at the wastegate. Theory is those two pipes just might be pypassing that divider and introducing a problem somehow. Is anyone familiar with the divider in the exhaust manifold and the effects if the two wastegate pipes were to create a bypass path? Thanks for your questions Rob, interested in your thoughts on this external wastegate bypass theory. Regards Rob
