Also who builds a forged motor with all that and doesn't even put in a simple boost controller?

Also a Gtr has camshafts (there is 2 of them)

If it didn't have a set of basic aftermarket cams in there all ready then I'd take it that no head work was carried out at all and now even less likely to make 7-800hp

The bloke that owned the car ran out of funds when the WFC hit hard, he was still building what he wanted and had to garage the car when the cash ran out.

I went on the advertising claim of up to 800hp from the car yard thinking they should not be able to make claims like this as is it was SO FAR away from the truth. But I will have my say about this soon.

When I spoke to CRD they said it was a work in progress 5 years ago and had not had it back until now. Part of the next stage was a HKS 5 duel solenoid boost controller( I had this installed),the next mods were going to be a better fuel system and Tomei poncams drop ins.

It already has a Nismo 2-way LSD. So it is a solid system and I am happy with it and the HP it will get on completion of the mods :yes:

I am not wanting a monster, once I do those last 2 mods ???

Obviously TT350GT is excited. I hope you enjoy the car.

Yes I am looking forward to getting the car, yes I knew nothing about the car when I bought it and dumb enough to believe what was advertised and told me , just loved the car and could not help myself ,it was an on the spot job and do not regret it.

I would not have used the full power even if it was there, I have 253rwkw on my 350GT and i can only guess what the 338awkw will do , my intentions was to tune it down, haha now I do not have to worry about that :rolleyes:

Clueless yeh, but since I have been on this site I learn something every day, Thanks everyone :action-smiley-069:

    • Hey, it's a GT-R, it's just as significant a moment as mine😁 It's not ideal when things are uncertain; I'm the type of person that always has a set plan for things in life so being unsure of this plan puts me in a weird place mentally.
    • Hows your intake piping? Are you still running stock? Having in the stock AFM position would mean, if the BOV was shut/venting out, it'd create the almost stalling kind of effect right // "the rich pulse behaviour" due to MAF thinking air is flowing ? But this would be better than having the bov in the stock position + MAF on/just before cross over piping right?
    • Essentially, yes. Although I wouldn't put the AFM on the crossover pipe. I'd want to put it into what amounts to the correct size tube, which is more easily done in the intercooler pipework. I bought a mount tube for card style AFM that replaces the stock AFM - although being a cheap AliExpress knockoff, it had no flange and I had to make and weld my own. But it is the same length and diameter as the stock RB AFM, goes on my airbox, etc etc. I don't have a sick enough rig to warrant anything different, and the swap will take 5 minutes (when I finally get around to it and the injectors & the dyno tune).
    • So to summarise, the best thing to do is to move recirc to between turbo and IC, and maf on the crossover pipe. Meaning I'd need a recirc flange, drill a hole in the piping on turbo outlet area. And drill hole on crossover to fit/weld maf sensor? Either that or put the MAF on the turbo inlet right?  Is an aftermarket recirc/blowoff valve recommended? Do currently have family in Japan so could probably bring something back with maybe a cheeky lil SuperAutobacs run?
    • Yep, so far most have said that it looks like corrosion on the wall from piston not moving. Which then has probably damaged the oil rings and caused those vertical marks. The longest the engine was still after the rebuild, was the winter of 2018 - 2019, plus the boat trip to Japan. When I shipped the car, it had normal gas in the tank but before that winter pause, it had E85 in tank.  In any case, even if either one of those was the cause, it happened close to 6 years ago and the car has been driven something like 30 000kms after the fact. Again, apart from the plugs and the dip stick, there is nothing in the way the car runs that would indicate what has been going on in the engine. I am going to consult a shop and ask their opinion, what would be the best approach. I do have some access to a garage I could use to diagnose further myself, but time is very restrictive. Might end up buying another engine that could be used while this one is being remedied. Without pulling the head, it will be impossible to find out if it needs another bore, but here's to hoping a hone would suffice.  Goddamnit, I would really have preferred this not happening.
