Fark me just had a read of this and I'm sorry to say but you have shit luck. Getting king hit( hate those dream boats), fire, heaps of shit breaking, most people would have given up, we'll done for sticking with it.

Haha thanks man, when you're at the bottom the only way out is up!

Drove the car to SYDNEY, from Melbourne. Got there, no issues. Got back home last night, no issues.

NEWS:
have been very busy with work/ family so didnt have much time for the car.
i did however get around to dropping it off at RP to complete the tune.
she made 265rwkw on 16psi and wouldnt take more ignition timing or boost, it feels a little lazy so hopefully some cam gears will solve that, but then again, next time we go in im hoping to have some 1000cc injectors, z32s and some cam gears and hopefully crack 350+

Cool can't wait to see the outcome!

I had to look twice at this when i was at WTAC, from a distance i was like cool another sweet 32R.

Then double taked and was like wait a second...

It's very well done man!

haha thanks dude, it gets so many confused and lost looks, i f**ken love it.

eg: once this guy walked around it for about 5 mins, scratching his head

HAH NICEEEEEE

Pulled out the mid muffler on the car and found it was collapsed. Welded in a pipe and put it on.

1- car sounds amazing.

2- the car goes even harder, I shit myself driving it.

Then, head over to nearest Coles and get yourself some of these.

okay so when we moved into this house 8 years go, the garage was a 2 car garage, could physically fit two cars in there, despite it being a bit skinny, but really long.
parents decided to partition it for mums home business which she no longer operates. so she just stores her junk in there...
mums gone for 5 weeks...

its easier to beg for forgiveness than it is to ask for something. right!?
took us a solid day to knock down the wall and clean all the useless shit out, that wog parents seem to love hoarding.
now im left with a roomy garage, somewhere to keep the car nice and safe, and heaps of room for a man cave!

up next on the car is some gktech dog bones and some 324mm rotors and pads.
more on that soon.

ended up doing a very mild wire tuck, moved the front body/headlight harness around the front reo, extended parkers, indicators etc and have them all hidden, looks alot cleaner!
swapped out the airbox for a set of M's pod filters, which solved my bonnet clearance issues, and the BOVS sound amazing.
besides that, car was looking mint. drove well, besides needing new coil packs and i had just had a discussion with somebody regarding some sugar juice!
then this f**king happened
crusing along the free way, VW touregs side mirror flies off and hits my front bar. no avoiding it.
luckily the lady who was driving was awesome and offered to fix it.

UPDATE!!!

the devil r name lives on.

Launched it last night, slammed it into second and then third. Backed off and could hear a squeel. So limped the car home. About 2 min away from home, the lower control arm mount snaps clean off the subframe at about 50kms. Car almost goes into a spin, somehow kept it together and pull up.

being 2am on a saturday night, and the car still somewhat driveable we limped it home with no issues, besides what looked like demon camber on one wheel lol.

Yanking out the frame today -_-

    • That's odd, it works fine here. Try loading it on a different device or browser? It's Jack Phillips JDM, a Skyline wrecker in Victoria. Not the cheapest, but I have found them helpful to find obscure parts in AU. https://jpjdm.com/shop/index.php
    • Yeah. I second all of the above. The only way to see that sort of voltage is if something is generating it as a side effect of being f**ked up. The other thing you could do would be to put a load onto that 30V terminal, something like a brakelamp globe. See if it pulls the voltage away comepletely or if some or all of it stays there while loaded. Will give you something of an idea about how much danger it could cause.
    • I would say, you've got one hell of an underlying issue there. You're saying, coils were fully unplugged, and the fuse to that circuit was unplugged, and you measured 30v? Either something is giving you some WILD EMI, and that's an induced voltage, OR something is managing to backfeed, AND that something has problems. It could be something like the ECU if it takes power from there, and also gets power from another source IF there's an internal issue in the ECU. The way to check would be pull that fuse, unplug the coils, and then probe the ECU pins. However it could be something else doing it. Additionally, if it is something wired in, and that something is pulsing, IE a PWM circuit and it's an inductive load and doesnt have proper flyback protection, that would also do it. A possibility would be if you have something like a PWM fuel pump, it might be giving flyback voltages (dangerous to stuff!). I'd put the circuit back into its "broken" state, confirm the weird voltage is back, and then one by one unplug devices until that voltage disappears. That's a quick way to find an associated device. Otherwise I'd need to look at the wiring diagrams, and then understand any electrical mods done.   But you really should not be seeing the above issue, and really, it's indicating something is failing, and possibly why the fuse blew to begin with.
    • A lot of what you said there are fair observations and part of why I made that list, to make some of these things (like no advantage between the GSeries and GSeries II at PR2.4 in a lot of cases) however I'm not fully convinced by other comments.  One thing to bare in mind is that compressor flow maps are talking about MASS flow, in terms of the compressor side you shouldn't end up running more or less airflow vs another compressor map for the same advertised flow if all external environmental conditions are equivalent if the compressor efficiency is lower as that advertised mass flow takes that into consideration.   Once the intercooler becomes involved the in-plenum air temperature shouldn't be that different, either... the main thing that is likely to affect the end power is the final exhaust manifold pressure - which *WILL* go up when you run out of compressor efficiency when you run off the map earlier on the original G-Series versus G-Series II as you need to keep the gate shut to achieve similar airflow.    Also, how do you figure response based off surge line?  I've seen people claim that as an absolute fact before but am pretty sure I've seen compressors with worse surge lines actually "stand up" faster (and ironically be more likely to surge), I'm not super convinced - it's really a thing we won't easily be able to determine until people start using them.     There are some things on the maps that actually make me wonder if there is a chance that they may respond no worse... if not BETTER?!  which brings me to your next point... Why G2 have lower max rpm?  Really good question and I've been wondering about this too.  The maximum speed *AND* the compressor maps both look like what I'd normally expect if Garrett had extended the exducers out, but they claim the same inducer and exducer size for the whole range.   If you compare the speed lines between any G and G2 version the G2 speed lines support higher flow for the same compressor speed, kinda giving a pretty clear "better at pumping more air for the same speed" impression. Presumably the exducer includes any extended tip design instead of just the backplate, but nonetheless I'd love to see good pics/measurements of the G2 compressors as everything kinda points to something different about the exducer - specifically that it must be further out from the centerline, which means a lower rpm for the same max tip speed and often also results in higher pressure ratio efficiency, narrower maps, and often actually can result in better spool vs a smaller exducer for the same inducer size... no doubt partly due to the above phenomenon of needing less turbine speed to achieve the same airflow when using a smaller trim. Not sure if this is just camera angle or what, but this kinda looks interesting on the G35 990 compressor tips: Very interested to see what happens when people start testing these, and if we start getting more details about what's different.
