Looking good mate

[sinistaGTR]

So the z tune pic has been finished. Still have the carbon ganadors and the nismo wheel nuts to put on...but very happy with the progress...now going back for the final tune.

[Owgasm]

Looks awesome!

[sinistaGTR]

well the car is back with the tuners now, unfortunately wouldnt start at the panel place where the z tune kit was done (had no spark for some weird reason), so getting that sorted aswell as the final tune.....

[blah_blah]

Looking good Dan!

Curious what brand Z-tune style bonnet you went with?

As the original didn't have the bonnet latches on the sides.

[sinistaGTR]

Thanks mate.

Went with a mu secret one, but bought it off another guy who had already put the latches on. But the black latches suit the car so Im happy to have them, plus it means that it wont fly up.

[Hadouken]

Hows the final tune going...

[sinistaGTR]

Spoke to them today and wasnt anywhere near finished and was making more power already....dont know figures but lets wait and see

[Owgasm]

Was the Ztune bonnet originally yellow?

How much power are we looking at?

Still stock internals bar cams?

Should be a totally different drive when you get back!

[sinistaGTR]

Yeh the bonnet was Simon, painted yellow but hadnt been used much/at all.

Power wise; it was previously making 290 and making more without the tune being finshed. I would like to see ove 320kw, but anything over 300 but wicked response and I will be happy. My aim of this car has been to make it an unreal street car. So driveability and wicked response has been my main aim. Hence why i didnt go with the -5s with the stock 2.6l.

But lets wait and see

[Owgasm]

Thoughts so! You beat me to that bonnet haha.

I bought his original front bar off him.

Did you see his GTR while you were there? He thought his wheels were the only set in Australia until we opened up my boot to put the front bar in haha. He was devastated.

He told me big power, big pipes (4" throughout the engine bay and to the end) but wasn't finished yet when I was there.

Yeah, definitely, don't need to chase a number. Response is where its at, especially for a street car.

Nah mate I bought it while I was overseas lol (ebay ad but offered him an amount before the auction went off). Yeh his wheels did look good in the picture and i imagine he would have been devo when he saw your wheels.

Yeh I cant wait to get home and drive it, going to be a completely different car. on the qld raceway calander seems there is a happy laps next month. (Hint hint)

[GTRsean]

Can't wait to get back to mine too

I'm currently in AMAB for 4 months sigh.

Haha, yeah, I knew that. Forgot about that.

I sent him a text message, still had his number, you must have made an offer he couldn't refuse haha.

Will come out and watch you put some rubber down

[blah_blah]

Seeing as you went the whole Z-tune style kit. Did you think about doing the pumped front guards?

I know people have mixed opinions on them. Some angles it looks tough and some angles it looks a bit awkward

[Nee-san]

Looking good mate, she has changed a bit since I saw her last that's for sure.

[nomnomv8]

Car looks absolutely immaculate mate congrats !!!

I have one question for you though - what size cooler did you end up going (from the pic it looks relatively thick and like 100mm) and did you need any trimming of the bar to get the cooler to fit on properly ??

Cheers

[wedge_r34gtr]

awsome looking car mate,

Any idea what bonnet pins they are?
