Cheers :) I can't recommend these cars highly enough. It's an evolutionary mile in front of my old R33 GT-R.

never heard of empire parts for the r35

do you have any pics of your intercooler hard pipe kit? is this fab'd in aus?

You wouldn't have heard of us (Empire is my company) as we've only been supplying wholesale parts to Western Australian shops for the last 6 years. We are only now expanding the 'brand' into selling retail Australia wide.

We're also a sponsor on here.

I can send pictures of the hard-pipe kit to your e-mail if you're interested (just shoot me a PM). The piping kit is only $499, but naturally for that price they are fabricated in China for us.

can you confirm empire performance is a responsibility company?

LOL - yes, we don't sell 'purpo' paint.

Couple of updates:

Plugged the COBB AccessPort into it the other day and put a map in it from COBB, 15psi and relatively aggressive. Saw a little too much knock on a data log, so decided to load a more conservative 14psi map into it as I won't get a chance to throw it on the dyno until the 22nd.

Also loaded up LC5 (launch control from the 2012 models). It now paints all 4 off the line and launches from 4400rpm. So good.

Took it to the motorplex tonight. Only did 1 run - 11.32 @ 121mph, 1.72 60' time :)

Intakes, inlets, dump pipes,injectors, fuel pumps all should be going in next week :)

Video from a run with Brendan in the car, was still an 11.5.

Congrats on the car, looks very nice in GMG. Do you have wheel spacers on it, since its filling the guards really nicely.

Your company offer reasonably priced parts, very impressive. I know where I'll be looking when my 35 rocks up :cheers:

More mods!

Now have the full Empire Performance 'Stage 2' kit installed on the car. $5,500 for all the parts required, and this is the result:

Stock power:
416awhp @ 11psi (570Nm)
Now:
538awhp @ 17psi (761Nm)
Still running BP 98!

Feels ridiculous now. 34% increase in torque, 30% increase in power.
Will be going to the Motorplex the next chance I get.

      R34 Gtt Wheel Offset Advice

      What can't be done with a little bit of decking board or similar timber bolted to a hub flange via 2 wheel nuts is not worth talking about.

      R34 GTT idle problem

      By silviaz · Posted

      I noticed something. On the tps sensor and the sensor behind the adjustment screw is adjusted towards the far left. Are these screws supposed to be centered? (this sensor was in the same position before the tune as well)  Also attached a photo of where my car usually idles at when warm (sometimes a tiny bit above that). I think I might have screwed up the calculation and it might have better than I thought lol at 750rpm still not 650rpm though.

      So for both general interest of engine health, and to rule out any coolant/oil issues, I organised an oil analysis done on the 125,000klm oil Results below, all good, just a bit of fuel dilution which I'm not too worried about

      This is actually a really good way of measuring what wheels fit. If only there was a similar measurement between hub face and suspension :p That said, it's probably pretty simple to actually measure it all with the wheel off the car for the rear. The front is a bit more complex but..

      R34 Gtt Wheel Offset Advice

      Being the top Google search result for R34 wheel-related inquiries, lemme throw down my experience. I calculated that 100mm from hub face to wheel face is about the perfect fitment for my ENR34 sedan.  I've been running 18x8.5s, ET35, with a 1" spacer. So, 8.5in to mm = 216mm. 216/2 = 108mm. 108-35 = 73mm. 73+ 25 (1" to mm) = 98mm.  If you wanna get close to this on dif widths, here are the offsets you'll want: 9" - ET around 15mm 9.5" - ET around 20mm 10" - you're crazy, but ET around 30mm All these should fit perfectly on a non-widebody, non-GTR Skyline. Note that it's probably the absolute max, and you're probably better off running a couple degrees of camber in this config, but it looks great, super flush.
