Excellent advise here! Never ride a big bike again and have your memory erased so cant remember what it was like. Cheapest way out of this.

I drove a 2L diesel van for 6 months whilst my car was off the road, peak power at 2500rpm and a redline of about 3200, that and it was about 20m off the ground, after that even my mums 1.5L civic felt fast!

I do get that feeling also, I drive a truck for a living... 62tonne B-Double not exactly the fastest accelerating machine!

GTR feels like a Go-Kart after 12hrs driving.

I spend a few hours a day trolling threads and reading different results from peoples setups.

I'm set on getting to the 400kw mark when the time for upgrade comes so instead of have a toy in garage, I have a "Silly Toy"

As much as I'd like to deny it, I am good friends with Ash. He's more misunderstood than a real tossbag :(

I did run an 11.2@127MPH with 347awkw on a stock 2.6L bottom end and 2860-5 with 19psi and super safe tune as dynoed at RE Customs. Drove in with 1/2 tank of fuel, dropped tyre pressures, ran back to back 11.2 and 11.3 along with 3-4 other runs which weren't as good, drove out to servo, pumped up tyres, filled petrol, drove home. Easy.

400rwkw on street tyres will net a 10 sec pass as long as you can launch properly. Everything in a GTR is at launch. After that, it's a pretty simple game.

I wouldn't be surprised if Ash does run a 10 with 400awkw. Even he couldn't fark up something this easy. LOL!

Well given he is a good friend of mine and we were actually discussing it yesterday, I'd be inclinded to believe my version. :D

You aren't the only one, plenty of cars out there are using factory dumps and making 330-380rwkw.

If you are so dead certain the car doesn't have anywhere near the power spend $80 and put it on another dyno and see, would be the first thing i'd do.

(i've gone from racepace to dr.drft, varience of a whopping 10rwkw)

Anyway, proof will be in the pudding - I'll remember this thread for a time when i run a 10 with factory dumps and -5's!

Till then :(

    • Could someone post some pictures of the factory Jack , tools, spare tire and how they were in a 1998 ER34 2 door skyline originally?
    • UPDATE: Hi all!  As we are getting towards the end of this thread where I’ll showcase final dyno numbers and graph, I wanted to provide an update. Tao from HyperGear has done an amazing job building the custom divided T3 housing for the G30. Communication was flawless, price was great, and now the housing is estimated to arrive in 7-10 days! Very very pleased. I must add, if someone is looking for an affordable turbo and end up reading this thread, I would recommend HyperGear. Genuine brands are the way to go as their proven reliability, predictable performance, and there’s a plethora of information available for specs, flow, and more. This HyperGear recommendation is based on their excellent communication, dedication, and willingness to listen to their customers. I particularly liked their ability to create custom adaptations tailored to specific needs, which is a HUGE benefit over other brands. And if we consider the HyperGear provided dyno results, it adds reassurance knowing their turbos can compete against genuine brands. Next update will be after the dyno!  
    • I've previously seen people post up "dress up bolt kits" for RBs but don't remember seeing them specify the full contents. I can only really suggest you grab the verniers and start measuring, and keep in mind the cam cover and timing cover bolts are both quite specific with a wider unthreaded section where the bushes sit, that will make it hard to get aftermarket replacements which tend to be all thread (set screws) or for longer bolts a flat section with a shorter threaded section at the end
    • I believe there was a similar one posted by @duggyphresh. They were re-routing their battery positive cable in the way I am also trying to achieve. Sorry, I’m new to this forum, so was a bit late to the party by a few months and so reignited the old thread, as I wanted to know how they got on with doing it.
    • Wasn't there a thread on this very subject just a few weeks ago?
