Hey everyone,

I have finally put pictures up on Gallery of my car. I had so many problems getting them to upload, but it's all sweet now.

I suppose it's a GTv because it has HICAS but if anyone else can tell me anything else from the photos, that'd be great. Any hints, comments question would be great.

cheers

Chanz

Hey man I have a gt-v myself, check your brakes if the front brakes are the bigger calipers with the nissan logo on them then thats a big sign that it is a gt-v, unless the previous owner has done a break upgrade, also your rear suspension should have the forks at the bottom for mounting rather than the eyes and one more thing to note is your diff, gt-v's have the gtt diffs but i have no idea on how to tell the diff. maybe someone else can help out with that.

To start off I'm putting a spoiler on it on the weekend, I brought it off one of the girls on the forum.

Also wanting to do some rims, but I'm not in a huge hurry , what would be the ideal size to still keep the same handaling characteristics etc and not nessecitate me to get it lowered? maybe 18's with low profils will lower the car and look better but wont they not fill the gaurds.... hmmmm

noooo 4 doors should be spoiler-less. you'll ruin the flow of your car's lines. please go into the 4 door sedan/taxi section and check out the hot rides thread for ideas.

also if you're gonna rock 4x4 profile suspension don't go big rims, the car will look like some lebo from sydney owns it.

      I have a VALCON if anyone wants it, I have no idea why you'd want to have VVT specifically broken out of the ECU as opposed to running it off the FCON/whatever standalone you have.

      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

      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!
