Yeah mate. Hopefully they will be finishing off the 'high boost runs' then. Sooooo excited :D

Thanks lith pretty sure ive got all the dramas sorted now so im looking forward to some high boost dyno runs and seeing what the dyno plot looks like

Awesome, look forward to hearing final results - hopefully better luck this time :)

You are not the only one... I think the GTX3071R has the most potential out of the X71/76 and X35 so I am eagerly looking forward to results from someone not shy of using a bit of boost :)

Only pity is it may be held back a little by the internal gate compared to a high mount set up

I agree, its the one I was most looking forward to - however I think the stock manifold(s?) could turn out to be a problem in this particular instance.

is the compressor the only change between the GTX models? eg quite literally nothing other than the compressor + housing has changed?

Yep

Heres the end result guys cleaned the pipes up clamped it all up and connected everything up even sprayed bit of silicone spray around to make my otherwise grubby engine bay look bit more respectful :whistling:

Gunna start cleaning up the engine bay next only thing letting my car down but its getting there now :thumbsup: hahaha

No im not gunna be shy with the boost Simon if my fuel system can cop it and the lil GTX can blow 25psi + efficiently its gunna get all it can handle haha all in the name of science of course :nyaanyaa:

Seems the GTX's response if as good as the older GT though which is bit of a downer but it does make good power the baby of the T3 family

Thanks mate its not really but the silicone spray makes it look the goods haha :thumbsup:

Tomorrow is good hopefully this torrential rain washes some more crap off my car but stays dry enough so i can squeeze on the power a bit tomorrow lol. :worship:

clean engine bay mate

its only one more day wait, wont hurt :P

Just got back, Yeah Mick was keen to see yours!

Pauls had dramas with a sensor which is quite minor and will be a nothing fix when shops open up again but still did 407rwkw early on.

Sorry Jez, RB wins

    • Just something I found searching for more info on Emotion R, apparently the ECR33 Skyline GTS25t was either originally black, or there were two of them, the black one being the original demo car, then building a white one which was part of the 1997-onwards (to at least 2008!) Cockpit Tatebayashi Tokyo Auto Salon booth demo cars. It appears that Emotion R closed down in 2008 and was declared bankrupt in 2010: http://bank-db.com/hasan/208365. Scan of a magazine with the black R33 from 1996: Wayback machine archived page from May, 2000: https://web.archive.org/web/20000529061027/http://www.emotion-r.co.jp/skyline.html Option magazine with a few photos from the Cockpit Tatebayashi booth at the Auto Salon from various years: 2002: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=154&image_id=3507 2003: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=137&image_id=3033 2005: http://www.jdm-option.com/photo/index.php?action=item&category_id=116&image_id=1831 In 2008 Cusco website mentions that the Cockpit Tatebayashi ECR33 was displayed at that year's Tokyo Auto Salon: https://www.cusco.co.jp/event/2008/12/post_735.html As of 2021 it appears that the ECR33 demo car ended up being exported to Florida, USA: https://rmcmiami.com/inventory/1996-nissan-skyline-r33-cockpit-tatebayashi-demo-car-big-te06-turbo-endless-brakes-lsd-450hp/ And finally here's Google streetview of the Emorion R garage in 2023 which is amazingly not only still there, but the showroom is still full of various parts in stock and funishings, etc.: https://maps.app.goo.gl/ttyEAZdZLyzermyT9 Apologies for nerding out a bit. I used to love doing this 20 years ago on SAU and got a bit nostalgic for a moment... 😅
    • Try fabricating something like this and install it under the pedals? Not sure if it's legal or not....
    • Even though I have some pretty good (brand) ratchet ringies, I avoid using them to break open tight bolts. A broken ratchet is very annoying.
    • Also, there's always room for 4 or 5 3/8" drive wobble extensions of various lengths so you can operate the ratchet from a better location.
