Well, I'd love to see some real world results from these turbos (ie, not from the manufacturer), there is a lot of doubt in these parts...

Aren't the UP Garage results "real world"? The trouble is I've yet to see anyone else reproduce their numbers at the low-end. With their Spectrum Motorsports DR500 turbos they're claiming 18 psi by 3000 RPM while making 350 kW to the wheels: https://www.facebook.com/upgarage/videos/697436427734626

I still have a hard time explaining away this post, maybe some day I'll be able to get my car on a dyno with a proper tune to figure out if this is remotely achievable:

Was the run with HKS done on the same engine as Garrett?

Not sure it was the exact same engine but UP Garage doesn't really do bespoke builds, they claimed it was all their VCAM Step 1 package and about the same weather. I believe the M7655 and GTIII-SS was back to back though. If you check their site this is what they mention, they probably used the 850cc SARD injectors for those runs but they've transitioned to the Bosch 980cc injectors since then as Denso discontinued it:

So how do you like them? 😄

Apologies for the late reply. No problems with them so far. Of course, singles are a better option these days for outright performance, but I didn't want to lose the original form factor of the engine bay. I also wanted to continue bringing my car to a Nismo Performance Center without many complications.

I have yet to put the car on a dyno, but when I do I'll post the chart for everyone's enjoyment 😉

      Shoota's R33 GT-R RB30/26

      By Shoota_77 · Posted

      They see me rollin' they hatin'....... Took me most of the day to make the necessary mods to the mounts to make them fit the car.  Fortunately I was able to just use the mounts that came with the rotisserie. The rear ones are really secure, the front I feel i might reinforce a bit more as it doesn't seem like enough attachment to the vehicle. I'm sure it's fine but better to be safe than (extremely...) sorry.  I drilled and tapped thread into additional M12 holes to each car mount where it attaches to the rotisserie as an extra fail-safe. Without them the side to side movement is just restricted by the allen head pinch bolts, nothing actually goes though the beam. Does now! I still need to adjust the rotisserie to get the car centred in terms of centre of gravity. If it's too high or too low relative to the rotational centre line of the car, it will be like a turtle and roll onto its back or as it currently sits, I dont think I'd be able to rotate it as it sits as it needs to lift the whole car up as it rotates. Ain't happening... I'm going to be nervous as hell the first time I go to spin it on its side...

      BCNR33/ECR33 Door corner piece replacement

      Oh yes done this when the window started flopping around.  Turns out the guides that run along the rail chanel had crumbed way. Took off the door card and pulled out the window mech, then the window, which you have to pull out through the top. As said unbolt the guide rail and don't spend 30 minutes getting frustrated trying to find a way to slide it out upwards cause that don't frigging work. Drop it down and out through the door hole. All I did to repair it was slice some 10mm clear plastic tube, vertically, then screw it to the guide rail both sides. This tubing rolls inward on both sides and leaves a gap wide enough to hold the window. To finish all I did was lube the plastic tube with olive oil and Bob's your uncle . . . well if he has the operation he can be your Aunt ! !  10 bucks in plastic tube and another 5 minute job done again . . . . YEH BULLSH#T ! My love for Skylines knows no bounds !

      I haven't replaced that, but I have had the doors apart on the r32 a couple of times The door skin will be held on by a combination of clips and bolts, just take it slowly and make sure all the sneaky hidden bolts are out Once the skin is off you should be able to pop that piece off pretty easily, looks like there are only 2 bolts holding it on
