Fcuk yeah!

Your Sil-80 looks bad ass! Satin black paint job FTW!

What are you fabricating? A wider body kit / guards?

It looked great the day you bought it!

LOL! Caldina's are fun, I have been in one, kinda like a turbo charged Corolla Sportivo with 4WD.

Having a half cage fabricated - for track days :D and a custom exhaust manifold made. He's also cut out some rust that we found after buying the body.

It's already got a big ass, so we don't need to go wider or bigger guards :) and when it's running (FINALLY) we'll get it sprayed a midnight purple.

The Caldina is ok, got some good boooooooost but I miss the handling of the sil. Working on improving the handling of the dino though.

Yeah the rims looked hot on the S15 hey. Didn't do any engine mods at all, was stock spec S so about 141 kw.

As said above the sil80 should put out about 300rwkw if not more :(

Nice,

Where you going to find a RB25DE out of a R32, unless you find a R32 GTS-25 or Type-X, S, XG.

Why bother with the N/A block, when you can just go for the R33 GTS-T RB25DET engine conversion...

RB25DET conversion will be a good start and then start upgrading that.

This Sil-80 is drift pig for sure.

      App to track mods, repairs etc.

      By cardre · Posted

      Hey everyone, just wanted to let you know about an app I use to track the modifications, repairs, servicing etc I do to my R33 GTR. You might like to use it as well. I'm biased because my son just wrote and released it! But I think you might find it useful to... https://trackmymods.com

      Hey everyone, been on here for a while, but never introduced myself before. 1st import was a R32 GTS Type M, then R33 GTS, now R33 GTR - each one sold to help pay for the next one. Over the years my son has seen me modify and do changes to my imports and was one of the reasons for him to build an app for car enthusiasts like us. (He can only afford a 2007 Honda at the moment, but he'll get there!) Anyway, bit of a proud Dad moment as he's released an app that I use and you all might like to as well. https://trackmymods.com

      Dual exhaust questions

      It will sound tragic and you wished you didn't have 1x exhaust per turbo. There's a reason why most S55 owners change to a single mid pipe.

      Echo the comments about the well preserved condition it's in. It has the aero bumper too for extra points. Nice car, and please keep it like that! 🙂

      Dual exhaust questions

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      1. There are no real performance benefits. It sounds different, and as the pipes are not as large diameter you can claw back some undercar clearance or run lower (if that's your thing). 2. Twin pipes, offering exactly the same cross sectional area as a single pipe** will have higher pressure drop - so will not flow as well. That's because there is more surface area of wall per cross sectional pipe area, hence more frictional losses. ** But of course, it is almost impossible to get 2 pipes that are exactly the same XS area as a given typical single pipe. eg, 2x2" is not the same as 1x 3", although it is close. If the 2x pipes add up to less XS area than the single - it will just be flat out worse. If the 2x pipes add up to a bit more than the single, then it might come out as a wash. If the 2x pipes are substantially more XS area than the single, then it will probably flow a little better. 3. No. Why would there be? What have cats got to do with boost creep?*** ***But for f**ks' sake, please run a cat. 4. If you want.
