"Here is the upgrade solution for GTR owners. Stock frame units from 850hp to 1250hp, stock compressor cover and stock turbine housing. Fitting our 11blade billet or titanium compressor wheels, ball bearing CHRAs and bigger turbine wheels from Inconel or Titanium. Many combos. Technology meets quality"

Huge thread on another forum about these guys, a lot of impressive claims but not many (or any) independant people running their hardware to back up some of the insane claims of the quality of their products. One of the top American Honda tuners put one of Extreme's "ultra efficient" turbos onto their drag Civic - tuned it, and then moved on to a Precision turbo within weeks... so until (or if) more of their product proves itself in the market I'm taking it with a grain of salt.

Looks like VQ rather than RB twins being IHI...

Pretty much sums up the typically wild claims of most of these ventures.

Just tell em kon Artistopoulos sent you

Care to elaborate what the actual point of the thread is?

Are you asking if they are decent or trying to promote a business?

They have built some pretty cool stuff, and like to try and push the boundries - or say they are, but there have been a few cases where not all has turned out to be as fancy (on their behalf) as they made out. One of the funnier examples was when they were talking about "their" neat cams, pistons, and custom 4G63 billet blocks etc - and posted a pic straight from Billet AU's website of a billet SR20 block :D

All the while I find it funny because they're speaking Greek on the fb page.

Never take a Greek mechanics word for anything. Except mine, coz im just an e mechanic which makes it all better.

lesson learnt re 1250hp codral.

Well talking about dragging back one from the dead

Ive always watched what Spyros did with great amazement, its a tough one.

He def proved the yanks wrong with his shop/parts/evo etc who said he was completely fos but his social media, lack of engagement and bold claims without much proof leaves people scratching their head.

Im gonna go out on a limb and say he's the real deal though but he talks it up a bit

for eg his fb page going back 9 yrs is filled with amazing stuff, iirc he's a former mclaren f1 engineer - his shop is def getting orders that much is obv with the cool stuff it makes

His turbos from 6-7 years ago look more efficient thinner much more complex to machine than the GT series let alone the equivalent GTX series of the day.

Look how his blades are bent and curved from the center to the outer. look at a GT and GTX and now G-series how they moved more towards this shape over the years, the same shape you now see in Rolls Royce Trent engine on a 777 or 787 - compare that with a T88-33d for eg

Billet Vr38 heads 7yrs ago
His claims are quite extraordinary but so are the gorgeous pieces he's made for eg the rods, pistons turbos cranks etc
He's the only person i can find that makes billet Tungsten alloy crankshafts DLC coated the same as F1 and he just happens to make a short stroke one for an RB26 that he claims is good for 12,000rpm

His claims for his lambo turbo kits are outrageous, Aventador 1000whp on 2.75psi on stock fuel system

13.8:1 cr v10 understroked 5l claiming it can make 5000hp lol - i think this is where he loses people
image.thumb.png.9ab125061b706354c803d01ae27da851.pngor is he just way ahead of the game

its a shame he only posts once every 4-5yrsimage.thumb.png.9ab125061b706354c803d01ae27da851.png
 

 



If i had the money id take the plunge on his RB stroker and full CF turbos

    • So next year I am looking at upgrading from my VE SS bomadore ute to something more refined.  I wanted to stick with a V8 but not anything German or Australian, either a coupe or a sedan. So if I wanted anything newish that limited my options to either the Lexus RCF which I quite like. But with the price they demand and a kid on the way a 2 door coupe is probably not going to be the best idea. The next best thing would be the ISF but the newest models are 2014 and commanding over 60k and even the older 2008 models in ok condition starting around 35k is kind of bullshit. So I figured if I could not have the noise I could perhaps make do with easy power. Enter the infinity Q50 or Skyline equivalent. The price difference between the 300 and 400hp models seems a bit crazy. Right now there is 300hp Q50 one on carsales from a dealer with 61km for 27k drive away. If I wanted to get a 400hp Red or 400R car the prices seem to start at 43k From my limited research it seems that the only differences are that the 400r/Red Red runs more boost and a more aggressive tune. There are are turbine speed sensors on the turbos. Has 2 pumps for the water to air intercooler. Runs an engine oil cooler. I'm guessing that the exterior trims might look a little more sporty as well. I had a lazy look for upgrades to bridge the gap on z1motorsports They have kits that upgrade the water to air heat exchanger as well as the coolant pump which should give a non Red/400r better intercooling temps than the stock Red/400r. I added an engine oil cooler with a thermostat as well to try and make things as close as possible. Obviously the ECU is going to need a tickle. Having not done much in the way of research they also sell a ECU flashing tool with pre loaded tunes that are supposed to boost the non Red/400R by 100hp which adds 1k USD to the cost. The total cost of the parts @ the current time including shipping and taxes worked out to be $4350 AUD. Personally I would rather get the car tuned on a dyno which would probably add more cost Assuming the worst that you got a workshop to install the new parts I would guess no more than 5 hours would be required in the worst case @ 5 x $150 per hour = $750 So the total cost could be around $5100 So for easy number 5k + 27K = 32k I guess that would leave some change left over to swap out the open diff and fit a LSD Any thoughts?      
    • Right, not sure why I thought it to be a lean spike. It might be fixable with modern card-style hot film MAFs which have some design features to avoid counting reversion flow but I've never tried it myself.
    • I did not realise this, I'll contribute more and earn my stripes and retry later. 
    • I'm only going to hassle you for posting links to images. It's against my policy to click links that could be some nasty payload. Sadly, you need to make 9 more posts before you can just stick the images directly in a post, unless @PranK sees this and bends the rule for you.
    • Hello,new to the group, I bought a R32 from auction recently, wondering if anyone knows the cars history, seems to have the usual go fast bits on it, plan is to do an engine swap- add 2 extra cylinders and 1 extra turbo. https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/i4rjmlzubjbwjtguh6f4s/IMG20241011140744.jpg?rlkey=q0lumm251377vknbqktfwrycq&st=7scvwx4e&dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/ro24qmwzlczzlfsr4y05x/Screenshot_2024-10-10-10-49-23-90_9a2f5bb2149dae94cd1e190effc09b33.jpg?rlkey=oyguh26ttshlf04ccp48odf4v&st=xloae97b&dl=0   New to forums and posting pics, if links don't work, take it easy on me, 42yrs old and I tune carburettors!!
