Bnr32 Track Build

[djr81]

after having a talk with my tuner i think i go -5 turbos what cams would suit them? is 280 to big

The ones Nissan put in it when they built it will be fine. Just get some cam gears. There are 4,268 threads on this very subject if you want to look into it further.

Evo was an option but i just don't like them, driven two of my mates mild mod evo 7 and damn are they quick! but i just not a big fan of them.

plus group a gtr look so nice!

Yes i agree they do look nice and are exciting to drive. but if i had an evo i would have alot more races/track days under my belt.

as for the cams i believe i ran some tomei 260 with 9.1mm lift on -5 and they were nice. i'd have to ask my engine builder the exact specs.

On the whole shock topic at your experiane level I rekon I could throw a set of bc coilivers in your car then use the same springs in a set of 18grand penske's and honestly I'd be very suprised if you could determine which shock was which. We've done it with a few guys who have campained state level sedans for a while.

I have a set of Bc's a set of proflex and a set of penske's that will fit a gtr easily if you wanna see what I mean.

Don't waste your money on stupidly expensive shocks just because they are a Jap brand name and expensive.

I'm not recommending you buy bc's either I'm recommending you don't buy something overkill.

I'm sure the serious qld guys would agree if I said have a chat with Murray coote about getting a set of shocks made up to suit your application and budget.

Springs your kidding youself if you rekon 10plus!

Been there Tested that. I'd garantee you'll take a second atleast out of the car with the right springs, even more so if you do get the weight down.

Good to see another gtr being built.

Totally concurr with speaking with Murray.

Yeh, speak with Murray. Check bank balance and then be forced to go buy 2nd hand of yahoo auctions

Murray's stuff is good value in the grand scheme, and IMO you're better of slashing laptime via great handling versus more horsepower, it just makes more sense.

Having said that, I use a set of Apexi N1 shocks in mine, but one day, oonnnnne day, I'll get some MCA

[skylinegtts]

whats the typical price range for some MCAs out of curiousity.

[Marlin]

Well, it depends on the application, whether you want remote resevoir etc (rally/endurance racing mainly), but budget between 3.5 to 7k and you're fairly safe.

Making your car faster with noise is even cheaper then hp or handling

Making your car faster with noise is even cheaper then hp or handling

thats the best statement right there.

[Kaido_RR]

hmm

another question. need to pick my ecu to go with the engine specs (gt-ss aim for 500hp @ engine)

Limited the list down to 2

d-jetro or vipec, i know my tuner loves d-jetro as that is what he sugguest for me to run when i went to saw him yesterday (forgot to ask about vipec)

what are people throughts? cost wise i can get d-jetro for around $1000-$1200 with all the gear, still waiting on price on the vipec

I'm a believer in going with what your tuner likes to work with, unless there are some functions you really must have... though I'd still probably go with what their preference is!

[Roy]

I once read a similar question about ViPec being posted and saw a Vic guys response which wasa picture of the ViPec box being used as a door stop. Harsh, but originally there were some integration problems, I dont think the EBC finction is still working properly. Many have great success, others seem to struggle with needing a few tweaks. But the end result seems great.

Not trying to write off the product, but I think its important to consider as if its not the recommendation of your tuner then it means the time and expense, dyno time etc getting the ECU working is likely to come out of your pocket in tune time. If he tells you to go ViPec then odds are he has his head around the little gremlins and/or wont charge you to flash/fix issues etc

[Kaido_RR]

Just pop in to see my tuner to ask about the Vipec, he said he can tune it and has no issue tuning it but for the price he said he rather put an Adaptronic in my car as its alot cheaper and you get similar functions.

However he pretty much sold me on going d-jetro. i have to agree with his reasoning that having the h/c with the knock function allows you to detect problems before they destroy your engine on the track

awsome build
