Hey guys keep ur eyes out for a set of Garrett GT2860R -5 for me, looking to pay around $1500 for a 2nd hand set looks like thats the market price from past sales on the forums.

just msg a guy about some -7s see how that goes, gona have to call apon the bank of thy father for this purchase if i get them lol.

-5s will be useless unless you upgrade alot of other things to go with it, you wont be able to run much boost with stock fuel system etc... and will just be laggier

Lag is for fags! lol

But if he is planning to upgrade the other components later and run more powers you could handle it for a while....... I purchased my car with a high flow and 199kw and checked a set of injectors in and it jumped to 250kw!

Yeah, lag isnt good! Response is where its at!

I had a little drive of one of my mates mates S13 in Sydney several months ago..

it had a forged motor, rollcage, bucket seat, t28bb hi flow etc. Had about 240rwkw from memory and it was stripped out so the car weighed bugger all.

it was that moment I realised I f**king love twin plate clutches, only because of that cool rattle noise they make when the clutch is pushed in. Only thing that is a bit of pain in the arse is getting off the mark, but gear changes are so crisp and smooth!

Anyway the guy took me for a drive to show how it goes when its opened up, anyway thrown back in my seat by 3000rpm and started going sideways by 4500rpm and safe to say I shit my pants. Felt a lot faster and less safe than the 370rwkw R34 GTR single turbo Ive been passenger in (which completely opened up at around 5500rpm)

Nope, its dead quiet but with 4600lb clamp it takes whatever is thrown at it so far........ The rattling is amusing for around 3 seconds!

thats the plan, for now im broke, ill have to borrow some cash from my dad till next pay (monthly pay) to buy them and have them put in, but if i can get them cheap then ill be saving like 2k. Im going to be putting a haltech platinum pro in it with injectors. So i figure if the turbos are rooted then i may as well spend a bit more and get a good set of -7/-5 for now depending on what i can find max out my injectors now and just deal with it till i get the ECU/injectors. I can get a set of stock GTR turbos for like $400 but ill find on on saturday whats going on with her.

Snapped a picture of my catback....the TIG welding looks awesome

HKS says its 93Db (I assume the point where exhaust noise is measured)....so I'm not sure if thats with stock cat/stock dump pipe.

I've got a CES Racing front/dump and getting a 200 cell hi flow cat....

so with the addition of those and a few months of the exhaust burning in.... I assume it will be a lot louder than that!

Don't know how strict cops are about exhaust noise....but with that operation hammer thing, I assume Id get raped by the police!

as per previous post you may need some of this for hammer.

and as per the -5's the guy a msg today is selling -7s, i think they may suit what i want better then the -5s also

Don't doubt it, especially considering I'm only 20 so I dont think I will be treated very nicely at all.

Btw, who has seen this article.....

    • Hi All,  just thought I would provide an update as I know smooth (Matt) was on this forum from 2003.    my brother Matthew passed away end of may 2024 at the age of 41 from liver failure. I am not sure how many of his original team krazy friends are still on here or active but thought it reasonable to let the forum know.    if you have any photos or pictures it would be great if you could share them.    it took me a while to work out he was active on here.    thanks so much

    • 😜 hopefully we get this instead of a new R36 GTR due to recent financial problems at Nissan. Nismo to sell a complete kit with RB26 and driveline. All starts making sense (ok maybe not) once the Nissan Leaf's (Leaves?) with stuffed EV motors/batteries hit the market cheap
    • Hi guys , have had allot of time for SAU and has helped me out heaps in the past so I thought I would give it a go , I have my QM1 white NUR for sale 1 of 156 examples built by Nissan. Serious personal messages please if interested and details will be provided , asking 500k 
    • Oof. Could be worse I guess. I suppose they haven't put any effort into ally suspension parts or CF panels, seats, etc. So they could probably pull about half of that back out of the car. Not like a bunch of other EVs that already have CF everything and roll the scales at ~2t.
