Amazing build thread.

Would love to get a build done in similar fashion to this one down the track for my S15 once I'm out of uni and have a well-paid job.

John Skola seems like a genius, it's a shame this is the last build he is doing.

don't see it there, sorry

you mean there's a window for each runner that exits from the billet collector and into 2 'wastegate collectors', and then from the 2 wastegate collectors into each wastegate?

Each runner has a waste hole. Spilt pulse billet collector each side has three hole that exit through one waste gate same for the other side. The three holes total the area of one gate. The exit of the gate is then vented in the dump as a Venturi

You seem to have blind faith in johns ability to engineer the car, it's almost religious...

You keep comparing to f1, rally and indy car racing with their research and development, with the costs and success that come from it.

But realistically you are carrying out research and manufacture. You come up with a idea, think it's the best, tell everyone it's the best without even testing it.

The reason why the motorsport teams get things so right is because they get so many things wrong and then head back to the drawing board, I just hope for your sake you spent all this money on something that works first time!

I have to agree with you mate. And personally, I think action speaks louder than words. Lets see when this project gets done and put it to the real world and see how it does will prove more than anything. Put it in WTAC against some of the best EVOs and s2000 and rx7 out there. Or take it to japan and run it against MINES R34 GTR as that is said to be the ultimate response machine. The real world will judge where this car stands :)

Yes the ultimate result will be in action and events and even a personal run in the car 8).

Wtac is going to be one of the events I'd like to enter. And want to race it down the quarter also.

Awesome Bobby, you spending the weekend there? Or just there for the show on Sunday? Hopefully see you over the next few weeks :)

Yeh I remember talking to you about boxes before.

U have gone so far and done some amazing things engineering wise so you may aswell top it all off with a great box aswell.

Should bring out the best of the set up.

Thats CHEATING!

For some reason I thought you were going with a 2.8lt. Not 3lt. Unless your planning on running a 2.8 crank with SR20 rods as a high deck... Doubt that though, its hard to beat displacement.

Hey Ian .

No it's not the 3L it's the os88 os giken sequential gearbox.

    • Hey guys. I have a 400R on its way to Australia from Japan currently and have a few questions I’m hoping others may be able to help with.   Wondering if anyone here has had any luck getting the Sat nav unit to work in Australia!? Assuming the Stereo is as simple as a band expanded and tv won’t work?  Seeing as they’re based off a Q50 which is Aus delivered is there any way to link that system to the nav? Nav modules and head unit are different part numbers and appear slightly different at the rear with plug ins etc. can I put my xtrail sd card into the rv37 and will that convert the maps or update to Australian? Has anyone got any advice here?     also has anyone fitted the factory remote start and Security system once it’s landed in Australia? I put an enquirey to Nissan Japan in via a third party, and they suggested it needs a Nissan Japan dealers device to setup and couldn’t guarantee if one here could do it or not. They can supply and I can physically fit it but to setup I would need a dealers device. Any information here would be appreciated also. I’ve seen one here with it fitted already prior to leaving Japan at a dealer/inporter, so clearly passes compliance and works when fitted Japan and doesn’t need changing here.      also, does the tyre inflation sensors work here? Does anything change with them when the vehicle arrives? Where are they actually situated? I’ve read they have batteries and they need to changing at times and seems like resetting involves the nav system?    any help here would be appreciated and any other aust specific information to help would be great. Looking forward to see what the current generation skyline is like and eager to see how many of the gadgets can be utilised here.  Thanks in advance 
    • Do need to take it with a pinch of salt. One of the adapter failures, they clearly had setup issues with the flywheel.  One of the slipping ones I spoke to and it was pretty clear the throwout was riding, rather than fix, just swapped to a new clutch.    These clutches are being put in anything from 5k offroad 4x4 beaters, GR yaris, 500hp commodores to 1200hp barra monsters. Bound to be some issues in some of them when they are not a simple bolt in affair due to the changes in height.    There is a lot going on in this picture and unless I did the job myself no way to tell what really happened. 
    • I did this mod in 2019  You just have to modify the top bracket of the ABS/TC/Fuel Pump Control ECU so it sits more upright and closer to the back seat and run a good quality positive battery lead from the engine bay, the negative lead i just bolted down to the body in the boot.
    • Damn... Not the feedback I want to hear.
