  1. Ok, the thread below this one has that information on there. I realise you're new here, so here's a link, read it from start to finish and you will have a much better idea of where you stand; http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/236467-definitive-guide-to-building-300-330awkw-gt-r/page__view__findpost__p__4138704 In future please search first, you'll struggle to come up with a question that hasnt been asked and answered before.
  2. Quota of 220 cars for those Sunday meets. Fkn lol. The value of days like the SAU day just went up
  3. Contact sent. Unigroup dont really do jobs like that, thats not to say they wouldnt, the person I'm referring to is a customer of theirs and they'd probably ring him about it anyway. Buy the RacePace cam gears. They work perfectly on a range of very hard driven GTR's without issue are $50 less and look nice and subtle.
  4. 400hp? please God no - dont do that Really basic 2.6L build and some nice low mounts will have you around 600hp. As for oil temps, get a quality Japanese oil cooler kit (Such as HKS) to suit R32 Engine, head; Reco head Add cam gears Add tomei poncams Add tomei type A springs Bottom end; See if crank is reusable, if not get a new stock crank CP Pistons in 86.5 if it's a stock bore currently, you can get 9.0:1 CR Eagle rods (or whatever brand you like really, it's all a wank for 600hp) with ARP rod bolts ACL Race bearings 1.2mm head gasket Put back together. Then add a set of 2530's and some good dump pipes matched to a quality set of front pipes and catback. Assuming here you've got a good fuel pump and capable injectors with ECU. Run in, tune, done.
  5. Ill make it as easy as I can so you can see the difference; Split; Open; The split versions are not as good as the open (tested at Unigroup, they can confirm if you like), so they're an item that is worth spending the extra and getting the right one the first time. Yes it makes a difference. Ill PM you a contact for getting stuff cheap Manifolds; Yes it's shown as worthwhile vs buying a set of stainless (dont buy stainless), I dont think UAS offer that service anymore though. The results I posted were with 100% stock manifolds that have not been touched in any way at all. I got a set done by someone in Sydney who knows his sh!t bigtime, he's not a business though, just a normal individual so if you wanted a set done I can ask if he can fit them in if you wanted. No guarantee's he will he say yes though. There's no way in hell i'd use a set of umodified stockers with that big ugly lip on them, If i had a picture of my modified ones i'd post it up but I dont sorry Cam gears; What price have you got for Tomei and what price have you got for RacePace? I prefer the stock looking RacePace ones (cleaner look), but answer the questions on cost and that should make the choice simple.
  6. Just realised there's no thread on SAU for cool motorsport photos......and now we have one! Feel free to post up any pics, your own car, someone else - whatever! Ill start, source is Porsche Motorsport Official Fb;
  7. Aaaaaah my bad! Here's what I thought you meant; http://www.turbobygarrett.com/turbobygarrett/products/turbochargers.html#medium GT2854R - 471171-9 GT2859R - 707160-9 GT2859R - 780371-1 GT2860R - 707160-5 GT2860R - 707160-7 GT2860R - 739548-9 GT2860RS - 739548-1 GT2860RS - 739548-5 GT2871R - 472560-15 GT2871R - 743347-1 GT2871R - 743347-3 GT2871R - 707160-10 GT2871R - 780371-2 GT2871R - 743347-2 GT2871R - 743347-4 GT2871R - 771847-1 GT2876R - 705330-1 GT2876R - 705330-2
  8. LOL Slabs of JB cans more like it for anyone who knows how heavy a gearbox is (not to mention a total cvnt to transport cause of the space it takes up and theyre not exactly easy to fit in a car)
  9. Where did you buy from? Also which suburb?
  10. Good on you Don Dada for trying something new. Always wondered how the other "dash" turbos would go against the 4 common choices
  11. Anyone watch the race? So much more interesting than watching V8 cabs IMO. Here's the official wrap up direct from their website and some pics from TeamSpeed (US Based forum); Words: RoadAtlanta Sexy pics: TeamSpeed
  12. My favourite one is people expecting more power by upgrading R32GTR stock injectors with R34GTR stock injectors
  13. Im guessing you bought the car like that and havnt had them off to check? If you know they're the 7's, is suggest you save your money and dont change to -9's as they're SO close to each other its not worth the effort and expense to change them. Lets say you do the swap, excluding labour here's some numbers to consider; You need to buy; Turbos $2190 Gaskets (manifold and turbo) $126.50 1 Bar actuators; $240 Total $2556.5 You then can sell the 7's to offset this cost. They seem to average about $1400 second hand, so you're out of pocket $1156.50 PLUS labour which I cant see being less than $350 at any shop so thats $1506.5 you're out of pocket assuming you can get $1400 for the old turbos. My advice, ask Yavuz or Tyson very nicely to get out the bore scope and do their best to read the tag on the turbo's so you know what you've got on their currently. If the dumps are split dumps (eg HKS), get rid of them and put on stock R34GTR dumps or even better the early model Tomei dumps (HPI is also good). This makes a big difference and Yavuz (Unigroup) will agree. Rest should be fine Cam gears; Call RacePace in Bayswater Victoria for a price. They do their own, cost less than the Japanese brands but every bit as strong (if not stronger given they're using the stock outer section) and why not support local business Injectors; ID1000's. May seem like a lot of capacity, but they drive better than the factory 444cc ones do, come with everything to fit RB26 etc and for Unigroup it's nothing they havnt done before. I cant comment on your fuel econ, thats for Yavuz to do, but I can tell you I had another brand of 1000's in my car, made the power fine but drivability was crap and fuel usage was a joke. Went to ID2000's and couldnt believe how the car drives now (just like stock, no jerking in very low throttle situations like carparks) Airbox; Smart move, do exactly that. I dont know what you mean about cutting it and opening another hole, it's already got one, maybe you're talking about making the existing one larger? -9 is GTSS. For actuators you need the ones that are 1 bar (14.7psi), so the options are either call GCG and get a set ($240 for GTR specific pair) or get a set from HKS which will be more expensive than that. I've had both, unless you're a brand whore, just get the GCG ones Great choice of tuner. He's widely regarded as "the" gun tuner in Sydney by open minded people and other tuners. If you've never been there before, dont worry, you're in good hands. The shop looks small and not visually impressive compared to some other shops around the country but the results are what counts. Yavuz is also a mechanical engineer specialising in performance engines. Im out there quite often so I may bump into you there. Mention the skylines club, or me by name as we get well looked after there. Lastly, if your budget allows, go buy some Tomei poncams, you'll see a nice improvement in the midrange. The specs you need are "Poncam 260IN&EX 9.15mm". They're a drop in cam, so the work to install them is done without taking the head off the engine etc. I'd be putting in a set of Tomei type A valvesprings also but none of the results i've posted up have had them installed so please dont think they're a required item (i'd personally do that then tell Yavuz to wind them up to the end of their efficiency just to see how they go, but thats just me ).
  14. Yeah thanks! Im sure there's cheaper turbos out there that do the job but we were talking about 35R's so I used that haha. Didnt include labour as thats different from shop to shop and would confuse people too much probably Hard pipes are not required on twin setups for up to 400rwkw, I listed every part needed and nothing thats not Can some of this info please be put in the first post Ash? Or links to specific posts?
  15. Oops also forgot a boost controller for both setups Simon enjoy that 10rwkw, mine was untuned and EBC off - i'll get there
  16. 1 Bar versions modified locally
  17. haha I love it how the general consensus seems to be 7's cant get above 300rwkw. If we were allowed by the owner to push it I'm certain it can get over 320rwkw given the highest it got was 319rwkw but the stress was on safety rather than a figure. Shame that car is now sold
  18. Ok good question and given there's a lot of readers of this thread, here we go; Lets say the GTR in question is totally 100% standard, most will have an exhaust or some mods but lets just say 100% stock. Twin turbo specific; 2 turbos; $2190 Manifold gaskets; $44 Turbo gaskets; $82.50 Dump pipes; ~$300 for 34GTR Front pipes; ~$350 for second hand Japanese, or $599 new for Blitz from Justjap Air filter; S Tune Nismo $140 or any K&N in stock airbox Total $3106.5 Single turbo specific; (This is going off my head from my single conversion Turbo; (Lets say 35R though) $1485 Manifold; 6boost $1100 (unsure on that one, may be more) Oil/water lines; $350 Dump/front pipe to cat; $550 stainless Turbo inlet piping; $240 Filter; $130 Turbo to FMIC; $240 Wastegate (Single); Turbosmart 40mm $558.30 Shield for filter (to make legal); $100 Manifold gasket; $50.60 EDIT: Forgot exhaust/dump gasket Total $4803.9. Single/Twin turbo requirements; ECU; PFC DJetro $1000 second hand Cat converter; Not sure, say $400 Cat back; New Blitz from Justjap $999 Injectors; Any jap brand or ID's, Say $800 including any fitment parts depending on brand Fuel pump; 044 plus fittings $300 Total; $3499 Twins; $6605.5 Single; $8302.9 Difference; $1697.4 That should help anyone considering doing up their GTR EDIT: Depending on State, Engineering certificate needs to be done for a single conversion, there's another $1100 on top for NSW at least making the single cost $2697.4 more than twins (which happens to be enough for a Nismo twin plate clutch or a nice set of wheels)
  19. Everyone would be wanting Vettel. Next will probably be another "Your career in F1 isnt complete until you've driven for Ferrari" from Ferrari or similar from McLaren
  20. Looks like a nice video bomb from Nathan Weissel during the interview there. Hard to tell if it's his stag but looks pretty damn close
  21. That and the S15 with RB25 and the 35R (S15 had non GTX version). Winner.
