That GTR just looks sweet!!!

Farrrk i just accidentally hit "report" on your post lol........ Its OK i cancelled it :P

I meant to agree with this - :yes:

im already looking at ECU and turbo upgrades -_- there goes another 7-10k for install tune and all the odd bits i need. will make over 400kw at all 4 tho with the rebuild. Looking at a Tomei turbo kits but i think that couldbe 12 months off.

Don't go with the tomei kits...it's in general agreement that their a laggy hunk of crap. I've gone with twin 2860-5 for my 400kw goal, but if i was buying the turbos now, i'd probarly look at twin GTX2863's OR possibly twin 2860-9 with E85....

...and vipec/haltech ecu for sure.

Have heard the same things...

Maybe -9s +85 would get you close with heaps of boost.. And would be super responsive?....

Yeah thats what i was alluding too. i'm a little worried about the responsiveness of my -5 set-up. i'm going to see how it all go's first, then if i'm not happy - i'll either vct the head or -9's. E85 will probarly come now anyway - i basically only need a surge tank :-).

IMHO -9's and E85 would be by far the easiest to do rather then going vct to get a responsive 400kw set=up

Yea it's all preference mate, depends if you like more linear power or a harder pull etc..

I'm so keen to squeeze a little extra power from mine in a few weeks, will post results once done

    • Hi guys, planning to get 18x9 +25 in fronts and 18x10 +25 in rears been reading the whole thread and cant really find anything   Anyone know if these will fit a r34 gtt with no scrubbing or guard work needed?
    • They usually get made by hand as part of any such swap.
    • Was planning on getting an R35 MAF and the adapter, should this be okay? Also any idea where I could get my hands on an intake pipe?
    • I mean yes, if you're starting from scratch on an unknown engine yes you don't need to be doing all kinds of math in the background but if you're doing relatively minor changes like AFM + injectors + boost up with some aftermarket turbos it takes quite a bit of math if you want to do something like maintain OEM fuel + timing tables but compressed and then a bit more load scale up top. I think I've spent too much time working on big engineering nightmares though so I'm a big fan of trying to constrain the scope of whatever work I'm doing as much as possible and trying to get it right before moving on. For example, a local owner just did the usual E85 + single turbo conversion to his R32 GTR and nearly burned his car to the ground doing some spirited driving up the local mountains. Turbine is unshielded and too close to the hood insulation. It's tough to balance "just get the project done" and "seemingly small details can cause massive setbacks I'm not willing to deal with".
    • No idea about Neil's steering wheel, but I have the same behaviour in the Stagea. I doubt it has ever been messed with so might be normal. Indicating to turn right at a roundabout and correcting even a little bit to the left to go around will cancel the indicator. Never considered it an issue other than it being a bit odd.
