From my much more modest experience with a basic RB30 I would say there is no way the 3.2 could not be a great daily driver even with 400 or 500awkw if tuned appropriately. I agree 1000 injectors would give you a little margin ... those 700s could well get maxed out on E85

I'd say you'll be needing bigger injectors than those peanut 700's, Pete. Especially if you're going to flex tune it.

I have just emailed the shop and asked what injectors are in the car, maybe a higher rating or he is changing them , I will try and find out tomorrow.

I doubt they would stuff it up over changing the injectors if they need changing, but ????

Yes definitely upgrade injectors I ran out of fuel at 470rwkws on ID1000s on E85. They are cheap and will save you a re-tune

I cannot imagine them not upgrading these if they need it, as I said , I do not know what was put in there when they did the original build, the bloke spent over $50k including Z-tune body set, but I think Advan used a copy bonnet but I could not get them to verify the parts bought from them, including the Nismo 2-way LSD??

So I am in the dark on a few things but trying to sort it out :/

Power will depend on boost level really, but a responsive 400awkws sounds about right to me :yes:

700s will be ok for 400 on 98, not so good on E85 :(

Not sure what injectors are in the car, they could be 1000cc , waiting on an answer from CRD. They are installing the flex fuel system so they now the injectors will have to handle the E85, so ?

When I spoke to Jim about building the 3.2 he said that a torquey 400awkw on pump would be a nice street car and would give me what I want.

He said if I ever wanted to turn up the wick, big HPs can be obtained, but like everything, more $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$s have to pass hands, yes , from mine to ?

I was going to buy a GTR, but did not like them, I wanted a car that made me feel like I was driving it , 8 years in an auto was enough , but a TT 350GT auto can be a lot of fun.

What I will get from this build should be more than what I need, but I will enjoy what I use :)

Just had a look on your pictures. You have blue caps. I BELIEVE. Those light blue ones are Sard 700's.

Same colour as in this for sale thread.

I know what you mean Luke, glad I am not young anymore (joke) maybe we can bolt in a jet motor soon, haha

On the sad side, no pics :yucky:

Has the build come to an end :woot:

Fn hope not :unsure:

Just have a feeling they were 700s

I will try to get an answer and that is like pulling fn teeth

Yes , yes, you blokes were right .

It is like they hold your car hostage , photos are like getting a Video of your love one proving they are still alive but you have to pay and take a chance to get them back in good condition :(

I am sure this post will not help my situation but I am at a point were I do not give a fark!

The Mushroom :rant:

So long as they're not sending you single nuts by mail, you'll be ok.

They send nothing, a nut would be good, so looks like it could get nasty , hope not, but shit happens :)

The trouble is they read all of this shit and I get the blame for what other blokes have said, the worst thing is, you blokes were right :/

So here we are, drive line was going in and communication has stopped, farking cars :verymad:

I think I will trade the Tiida in so I can get another fun car, 4 door something and I do not give a shit how long it takes :)

    • The water pump is know to leak as well. So if the coolant is low checking that first as well as hoses. 
    • Reading your posts Josh, sometimes I feel like I've gone in a time machine back to the 90's when everyone was doe-eyed and figuring things out for the first time.  I've lost track of how many single turbo GTR's I've seen on track that haven't burnt down lol. Everything has been figured out a long time ago. These things are at the point now where its essentially turn-key to go single turbo. 
    • Among other things yes. Making sure to either use an oil pressure regulator or the right restrictor size for your oil pump/range of oil viscosities you intend to run, making sure you plumb the lines correctly, turbo should be placed such that it siphons properly even when the water pump isn't turning so you don't boil coolant in the turbo after shutdown, oil return should be low resistance and also preferably picking the one that is most likely to return to the pickup as opposed to some other irrelevant part of the pan. It's far from impossible to figure this out but I have seen people really, really struggle and if that's the case it's easier to just take the path of least resistance. To me, bolt-on twin turbos are a fixed cost whereas single turbo is almost unbounded.
    • Latest round of updates on the car. I purchased and installed a SWS clutch slipper to help with 60ft times and got some second-hand good condition 275/40R17 Hoosier DR2 radials. Test and tune in November showed the tyres were an upgrade over my over 15 year old mickey Thompson's and I got a 1.8 second 60ft and pb et of 11.71 but even then, that run wasn't great due to rain and driver error (the event got called off 10 minutes later fast forward to the weekend just gone 25th of Jan and there was finally a break in the weather to let racing happen. The first run the track was slippery and only managed a 12.1@129 Second run the track was better and got a new pb et and mph: 11.54@131   Lith and I then worked out that I installed the previously mentioned clutch slipper incorrectly and its never been working, and I had just been dumping the clutch the entire time, we also noticed it was on street boost and not race boost. So I lined up for a third run with the car turned up in the first two gears, but the passengers side axle objected to clutch dumps and left the chat which stopped my weekend.   so there will be another attempt in the future once I replace the tyres as they rubbed and are stuffed now. but a low 11 should be on the cards.
