Dude... Who owns the twin turbo lump?

.... I can't belive I'm missing all the action!

Justin.

I have heard the ute has already made 800+bhp and has a lot more to go...

I would love to come watch but am moving house..

Hi all,

on behalf of Nick from GT Garage we would like to thank everyone that attended the day and congratulations to those who won trophies in the various categories. Once again the day was a great social environment and good to see a wide range of cars putting their cars on the dyno. It is events like these that bring the motor sport/car scene together so as long as the participation and enjoyment is there these days will continue to occur into the future.

I will reply again later with some notable figures from the day.

We look forward to seeing you all at the next dyno day, tentatively scheduled for some time in the next few months.

Cheers,

Ben

Have to mention my pride & joy(and brodies pride and joy) & also favourite big gun metal grey shoebox r31 punching out 109KW's NA with fairly basic mods. sounded kewl for a ol' dirty 30 too.

really enjoyed the more "normal" cars on the day, the under dogs you might say, bang for buck.

at the end of the day, money buys power, love/passion and skill only get you so far, so glad to see plenty of sub 200kw cars

    • yeah I have brown peeking out from in between some metal sheets close to the hood hinges. Strut towers look fine, even around the edges. some images https://imgur.com/a/brGt3Tu the one that looks the worst is the panel(s) going away right near the firewall on the passenger side, from underneath. Driver side does not look that bad.
    • I presume you are talking about a C34? Have you seen the buyers guide? https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/92065-buyers-guide-the-nissan-c34-stagea/ It's what got me to sign up to the forums when I bought mine. What kind of insight are you after? Up front I'd probably suggest to not get tempted by the poverty-spec models. I can't imagine a RB20DE to be engaging to drive in a 1600kg car.
    • yeah I try to be positive. Time will tell what becomes of it. Realistically my only other choice than to just deal with all the issues is to walk away and just sell it agai, at a loss.     I know a fair bit about these cars and knew before buying. I will try to deal with the rusty spots without tearing apart the metalwork for now. Sooner or later I probably will have to bite the bullet and do (or ge done) the arguably worst job an a 33/34 Skyline.
    • I'm aware that you can sink endless amounts of money into an engine. I don't want that kind of engie though. My power goal is 500, maybe 600hp at the max. I can get by with the nearly stock engine that I have now for that purpose and if it does need a rebuild at some point I would choose longer lasting components instead of the most ridiculously hp-rated ones. And do all the essentials of course.
