Awesome build mate! Keen to see the results of the 9.5:1 pistons and e85, I'm planning on doing the same but with a 2.6 and either -9's or GTX2860's in -9 housings. Did it take long for Spool to sort out the pistons for you?

-5 rear is identical so it's best to use that.
Front wise -5 is to big and you'd need to use -9 from memory. Back a few pages are the gtx 2860s that I did but I used some weird stock turbo covers
Have you seen any power / dyno results from them? I remember that you had them built but sold them on, trying to weigh up whether the extra hp over -9's is worth the $$$$
-
Has anyone seen or heard of someone shoehorning a GTX 2860 into a -9 or -7 housing? I have heard that it is possible but just haven't seen it done yet. I think from memory you still need to use a -5 rear housing?
-
I had 18x9.5 + 20 on my old gtst, I ran 235 to stop scrubbing so i would say if you went a + 25 you would be safe. I went to 265 on the 9.5 with my gtr abd it was a great grip combo.

Not the best forza but not the worst, had a lot more fun with horizon 2 but 6 is a lot better than 5 in my opinion. Im still very disappointed with the lack of tracks from Forza 4, fujimi kaido and the other original tracks are needed badly!
-
They are 19x10.5 +15, only scrap while cornering hard with soft dampner setting, 275 all round

Does any body know if a -9 rear housing will work with the gtx cartridge? Wheels are the same diameter just a different trim, 76 vs 62. As i have -9's now was wondering if i just got the machining done and swaped out the cartridges.
edit: Looks like the -9 rear exducer is 34mm while the -5 is 41mm so I'm guessing no, only other question is will a gtx2860 front compressor fit on a 2859r cartridge?

Very nice r33 GTR. Is that a 400r rear bar??
I think so, I would say its a rip off tho not genuine
-
Pics I took a little while ago of mine.

Is there a round about figure on cost for a bottom end package?
-
Was wondering if there is anyone in brisbane that would be willing to let me ride along in there gtr with -5's and stock stroke. Can meet you anywhere or meet at a up coming event. I just want to feel how the turbos make boost in car rather than read all the different opinions online, send me a pm if you are willing.
cheers

Anyone? Would like any opinions as im getting close to buying new turbo's / exhaust.
-
measured it up yesterday, think it will hit on the inside of the front and they sit out 10m/m, decided on 19x9.5 +12 with a 8 or 6 m/m spacer. i have sent a email to the company to see if they can make a custom 10.5 but i would say most likely not.
-
will 19x11 +12 scrub on r33 gtr guards?
-
I know it is better to have equal length but is it really crucial? Does it affect top end or response or both?
-
30 m/m lower than the bell housing, im starting to think i might have to make one too...

Can anyone recommend some front pipes for a R33 GTR that sit close to the chassis for ground clearance. I have a Nismo one on at the moment that sits aprox 20-30 m/m lower than my gear box, about 70 m/m off the ground when the rest of the car is roughly 130-140 m/m. I want to go 3.5 outlet so i was looking a the Midori stainless system, http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/MIDORI-SEIBI-SUS-FRONT-PIPE-NISSAN-SKYLINE-BNCR-R33-GTR-RB26-DETT-90MM-/140897957238?pt=AU_Car_Parts_Accessories&fits=Plat_Gen%3AR33&hash=item20ce2c3576, sorry about the long link. Does anyone run this system or can recommend something that fits my description? I would like to go stainless or maybe titanium if I decide to spend too much...
-
so what kind of power figure could be run on a e85 tune and still pass emissions? I thought they use to do DB test not emissions test? Either way still trying to decide whethers its worth moding anymore if they are going to start cracking down on it...
-
Does anyone know for sure what the new laws are? Ive read through some on the dep of trans site and from what i have read, ecu / suspension / engine mods / brakes all need mod plates which is nothing new or anything to get worried about. I rang the department hotline and the guy seemed adamant that all cars must now emit the same CO2 emissions as they had from factory regardless of mod plates and a new facitlity will be up and running round April for testing. Can anyone say for sure if this is correct or false? Will this apply to club cars aswell? If it is true i would say alot of people are in the same boat as me.

cheers guys, leaning towards tein just for the easy rebuild's through fulcrum and EDC means i dont have to pull the back seats out to change the dampner
-
Are BC coilovers pretty good quality wise? Does anyone know if tein are the only coilover with EDC for the skyline chassis, I know KW do there own EDC now but ive only seen them for euro cars.
-
Can anyone recomend a good height adjustable coilover for our roads. I was leaning towards tein's with EDC but im now wondering what other people are using. Car is a R33 gtr and will most likly see little track time, building a track car for that.
-
great result mate, will definitely going this setup if i stay 2.6. will these turbos still perform between 17-20psi or are they only efficiant over 20+ psi? going to be running 9 or 9.2:1 compression on 98 so i figured i wouldnt be able to run much more that 20-22psi.
