I'm not sure if any of you have been following this monster, but Dave a local Mandurah guy who has been building up this monster over the past 3 or 4 years.

We spent some time this afternoon messing around. This is just at low boost 15 psi at the track will see 45 psi & nitrous. So I'd thought I post it up here as its WA related.

It's a giant Godzilla painted over the vehicle. Transmission is a BMS built RE4R03A Jatco transmission bolted to Standard GTR transfer case, featuring Full manual reverse pattern valve body assembly with transbrake and attessa control, all shafts and planetary sets softened and rehardened and chryogenically treated, carbon band, raybestos plates and kerwen steels, Vasco shaft from box to transfercase. The gearbox is the first of its kind to be setup for drag racing.

Seen this beast in the flesh, both before and after the transformation.. all my boot trim came from it. (and spare tyre :D )

Stop teasing already and let me know when it is going for its first run, I bloody hope I am in perth to go and see it.

real GTR's are manual *cough*

jks

will be interesting to see if it does the numbers :blink:

Not like those silly R35's those kids are driving these days :banana:

That car looks pretty nutso, keep us informed of when its in Perth and doing something we all can see, I'm sure there will be lots of SAU support!

    • Hey @Butters, did you end up getting this clutch in ? I have just ordered to a uniclutch track to go in my getrag 6 speed that’s in my BNR 32     
    • I know you don't want to hear this comment, but I can't not say it.  I just can't see 200kw being worth the time and effort. Its like guys with NA cars, putting in headers/exhaust/tune for a massive 20% jump in power. Great, the slow car is still slow and you're down $10,000.  My vote is leave it NA or price in a gearbox upgrade and shoot for at least 300KW, preferably 350KW+.  Now you have a NC that will try to kill you from time to time and will be exciting to drive
    • Ah yep. The main message I want to pass on is, try not to get scared of ghosts when thinking about knock/knock detection.  What I mean is, healthy engines make noise. Knock is also noise. Your knock sensor and ECU combo are trying to determine bad noise from good noise based on how loud the noise is. The factory knock sensors and ECU are not good at doing this.  Modern ECU's are pretty decent at it, however I'd still say that you would want to verify that if your ECU says it's knock, that you actually listen to it and confirm that it is correct.  Are you familiar with the plex knock monitor?  https://www.plex-tuning.com/products/plex-knock-monitor-v3/ I expect you're the type of person that would be very keen to play with something like this. It is great knock detection and you can pop some headphones on and listen to what's going on.  Knock that you've deliberately induced in low load low RPM areas is not really putting anything at risk and is a great tuning/learning/verification tool.  I just thought this was worth mentioning based on the way you were talking about setting up a base map and the Haltech base map settings. There are better ways to spend your time then chasing ghosts and worrying about detonation in scenarios that it is crazy unlikely to encounter it.  I was also wondering, what ECU are you planning to get? Will it be long til you pick it up?
    • This came quicker than I thought. It ain't even 2025 yet.
    • I somehow quoted my post instead of editing it. I regret nothing.
