Nice work

After reading this thread I had to ask my misses if she could get me a towel!!!!!!!

Now that is GTR porn

How does the car stop compared to the factory brakes?

its like comparing day and night, theres so much difference. it feels like it can stop on a dime. i didnt realise how shit the standard ones were until now.

Nice...are these ford territory turbo calipers ?

lol, nah, these are the brembo gt kit.

nice mate, loving the progress on this

As you said you cruised it, and it's a turbo car, you really should be able to get better then standard fuel economy. While cruising it, you're making the motor make the same power as a stocker cruised... This should use the same fuel as a stocker. I'd be having serious talks with the tuner. If you cruise it too much I see washed bores occurring...

Mate your never going to get 500 or so kms out of a tuned GTR i dont care how you drive it. My old car would be lucky to get 300 odd kms around town.

btw nice car mate sounds tuff!

I don't see why not, at cruise load you would be lucky to be making 100hp, probably closer to 80 or 90hp. Shouldn't be using a lot of fuel unless you put your boot into it.

But I digress, Anthony did say his definition of cruising involved boosting it hard, which is what this car does best As if anyone could just putt around in a 950hp 2.8L GTR

Who cares what mileage you get.. If you can afford to produce a car like that and exclusively run it on E85 then I am pretty sure you wouldn't care how bad the fuel economy is.

You can't expect to maintain a very healthy fuel consumption rate if you drastically increase your performance levels thats pretty much a given.

Shift light in the cluster looks mint, very nicely integrated

How a GTR should be driven ....... Respect!

Does on the highway count?

[Weapon]

[sultanaz]

I f**king love this thread -

[croat]

Yeah highway counts. I was making 310rwkw out of my R33 and dont think I ever saw 500km to a tank. I used to think they were good when kept off boost and just cruised around but this was short lived when the car came from the workshop. You might say I had a bad tune, but Ill tell you that 3 different, well respected tuners have tuned the car on different occasions.

p.s i think we are getting a little off topic, Loving this build up, keep the pics/vids coming!

Update, decided to devote some time to the glovebox :

[sinistaGTR]

PORN

[UWISSH!]

was there a reason why u didnt just replace your standard dash with the haltech unit?

cant imagine it would be easy to look at when this beast gets going (veiw for the passenger will be good tho)

very very neat job anyway

keep the updates coming

the reason it isn't mounted where the original cluster is because i wouldnt have turn indicator lights, fuel guage and a few other things. plus it would stand out too much to the police at night. the main reason i'm using the unit is to view the ethanol content in the fuel and monitor a few other things while the car is staitionary. but it does give the passenger something to look at while we are on the move.

Picked up these 2 items for the Gtr, Powertune silicone heater hose kit for $102 and a Powertune silicone radiator hose for $38 =)
