Go fast central!

[OZ GTR35]

My go fast bits for the VspecII are hear, and with a bit of luck they will be in the car by next weekend.

Pictured in the below shots are.

RB25 airflow meters

Apexi pods

HKS dump pipes

HKS GTSS turbos

Trust remote oil filter and cooler kit

Apexi PFC and handset

Tomei PON type B 260/260 drop in CAMS

Blitz SBC SpecR boost controler

600cc Nismo injectors

Im also waiting on a Tomei 1mm head kit & Sump baffel

I already have a 90mm exhaust, carbon fibre cold air box and a twin plate ceramic clutch.

It should be nice once its all done and tuned, then I suppost I should head off to the drags to see how it goes, followed up with a full day at one of the tracks.

[Blitz]

Paul, such a show off

[silver gts-t]

very nice,

was this over night shipping from japan?

[Duncan]

yummm...toys....

[OZ GTR35]

shipping was exactly that, shipping, took ages but cost nothing

[williamsf1]

curious to know if this is the boost controller of choice at the moment? I would have to say I almost have a mirror image of bits on my garage floor.... sans the boost controller! I still cant work out which one to buy! I currently have a turbosmart 2 stage thing.... is that any good? (came with the car)

cheers....

This is easy to answer, I wanted a dual solinoid, and the unit had to be small enough to fit into the ash tray. This one suited my needs. It just so happens it was installed yesterday. Everything was ok except for the boost gauge tube. It was not long enough and made from shitty plastic, so if you do buy it make sure you grab 2-3 meters of better tube. I actually need an english manual for it. I have set the boost to 1bar and it is working well, but it has so many functions and I dont know how to use it correctly. If anyone can help it would be appreciated.

Blitz SBC SpecR, english manual

As a side note, I also have the inj, airflow meter's, pods and untuned PFC install, boosted to 1 Bar, the car feels very nice to drive. Cant wait for the completed product!

[williamsf1]

ok cool.... I was looking at a pack online that came with 3 m of nice blue piping.... seems to be a common thing with these items! about $450 too! I think the dual boost sol. is the way to go also.... please keep us informed when it is all tuned! I will be doing the same on my "old" R32 GTR soonish with a Jim CRD tune.....

[heartbrkr]

bah, that shit is prolly worth as much as me car =p

[Hiroshima Screamer]

POWa !

[ferni]

You have too much money!

[OZ GTR35]

Its not a point of too much money, I just want a nasty car, that goes like a cut cat!

[shonen]

hmmm nasty eh ??? why not a HKS 2.8L stroker kit and a T88H-34D strapped to the side ?

awesome car and nice array of parts you got there...................

[Merli]

Copy cat

This might be a stoopid question, but one of those dumps looks a little funny, almost like it has an inner metal "skin".

If you look at the shot which shows almost the full length of the cams you can see down the exhaust end of one of the dumps, and the3re is a shiny metal ring that looks seperate to the flange, is that actually the case and if so why?

[fatz]

bird told me they are all going in this weekend

the flange ID is the same as pipe OD.. so pipe is smaller and does look silly just like you spotted.

so those hks dump pipes is only good for small size turbos like factory items, 2510/gtss is just about to get a little choked but still ok.

[OZ GTR35]

Well,

After a long journey the parts are all on, and the car is running.

Two weekends ago the engine came out, turbo's, dumps, cams, sump baffle and oil kit went on (I already had the PFC, Pods, AFM and boost kit on. The car was back on the road by Tuesday. We ran out of time so the head gasket did not get put on. So I have a 1mm Kit for sale if any needs one.

We had a couple of highlights. The crank bolt took 40 min to take off eventually taking two 100Kg men hanging off an 8ft extension pipe to crack. Finding I had no blow off valves, forgetting to tighten #1 turbo oil feed and finding out my clutch was gone and attempting to press out the HKS clutch bearing only to find out you open it with a small screw drive were amongst the highlights.

We had a couple of things to fix before I was happy with the car. Firstly find some BOV's. Judd was kind enough to lend me his HKS's which are now on the car. #1 turbo was still leaking some oil and water, the oil temp was not working and the boost was not being controlled (I had unlimited boost).

On Sat morning #1 turbo came off to find the oil return was not nipped up and the water feed copper pipes were not seated properly. The oil temp was a simple connector and the boost was fixed by blocking a return pipe.

The car is running well but I need to replace my clutch and get it tuned. Within a week or two I should be able to supply some power figures.

Picking a workshop to tune is proving to be a big step as well. Everyone has an opinion and everyone has good and bad stories. You have Ben at Bell performance, UAS, Adam at Just Engine Management, Croydon, Hills motor sport, City performance.

I’m thinking of borrowing an Air fuel meter and doing my own street tune!

The car feels strong but it will do better with a good tune.

Anyway I will let you know what I get when I dyno it.

[Beer Baron]

good work mate. that was my GTR being tuned at UAS when you walked into the dyno room covered in black sh1t to ask Ben how to remove the release bearing. I would have said hi but I didn't recognise you under all the grease!!

It was only after you left I realised who it was.

I'll be very interested to see how it goes mate.
