  1. Call Mark Jacobsen at Godzilla before you make your decision. (07) 38904488
  2. lol a lack of fuel would have shown up on the dyno...we had to take fuel out of it. its holding its afr's dead flat to redline.
  3. the big difference is the R32 system runs at 5Hz...the R33 system is 50Hz and the R34 is 100Hz. this is why the R32 system is a snail...it looks at the wheel speed signal only 5 times a second! The R33 system is 10 times faster to react and the R34 system 20 times faster.
  4. very similar... both built 87mm bore engines...both with extensive headwork including 1mm oversize valves...both with 280+ deg cams...both with Hypertune plenums (6 throttle on the circuit car and single throttle on the drag car) both with big intercoolers (Apexi drag on the circuit car, Trust drag on the other) both with similar exhausts 3 1/2" circuit 4" drag, both running Power FC (recently upgraded both cars to Vi-PEC ecu's) , Z32 AFM's and Blitz dual soliniod EBC's We really had to push the circuit car to crack 450KW...the drag car was slightly better everywhere and did it with the GT-RS's without even raising a sweat. My vote for simplicity would be T04Z as they are easier to get them to perform...but for best results the GT-RS's are the pick if you know how to set them up correctly. The T04Z is more forgiving if the set-up is lacking in an area...the GT-RS's wont let you get away with it...everything must be spot-on. A 3 litre bottom end may make it a little easier to get right as the extra capacity will help them.
  5. Ive got a very tidy black Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited for a swapsy...V8, leather, electric everything etc. 10 months rego etc would look great slammed on 22's
  6. OK part number is 024U-225371 or 024U-BAKES1...lol I hope you have arranged with Christian (Prank) to operate as a trader on this site.
  7. the clincher in my opinion is the Nismo gal. radiator guide plate. Whats the Nissan part number for that one Bakes? would have been nice for Wayne to let us have a quick run on the rollers today after the Toyota club had finished. Dave tells me the cat that was fitted represented a significant (up to 40%) restriction in the system. He owns an exhaust shop so his knowledge is reasonably accurate. The numbers up to where the power starts to nose-over are all excellent for the set-up, and we by no means pushed the car hard....but there is something stopping it making more power, winding more timing, less fuel or more boost to try and push power figures is pointless at this stage. Its a method of just trying and testing a few ideas when Bakes comes back from working interstate to get the power where it should be at this level of tuning. With the wheels fitted to the car and the level of tuning the car has now i estimate the power is down about 40-50KW of where it should be...yes a restrictive cat can rob you of that.
  8. our circuit and drag cars came up with almost identical graphs using the same dyno. here's the details... drag gtr...run-in BP98 tune 22psi 455KW HKS GT-RS x 2 circuit gtr...race fuel tune 24psi 451kw HKS T04Z x 1 both were RB26's and torque curves were matched as well. the race fuel tune on the drag car at 25psi netted an additional 50KW
  9. its better for the driveline as it eliminates shock loading the driveline...its murder on the clutch though. Brad i run an ABS master cylinder which has only 1 feed to the front brake hydraulic circuit...you run this line to the locker solinoid and then tee the other side of the soliniod to each of the front brake calipers.
  10. where are the breathers on the catch tank????
  11. Andrew Hawkins would have been good on the mic and would have provided some interesting calls. Maybe SAU could have ran an ABO BOB BBQ...an idea for next time perhaps
  12. This is a dead set bargain. I couldn't build this myself for that price if i worked for free. Good luck with the sale Dennis...im sure it wont take long to move it on.
  13. But if the crank has a narrow oil pump drive...it would only still have 8mm of contact. It wouldn't matter which pump you used. Id prefer to use a pump which mated to the entire face of the drive...not just a small portion of it...this in my opinion is part of the whole RB oil pump saga and why Nissan extended the drives on later crankshafts.
  14. 460+ on 22psi...see 1st post here... http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Tw...le-t183511.html
  15. Yes he would have to be one fella who i would trust with anything he told me. if anyone 'actually' knows whats going on, its him.
  16. Tuning tonight....should be good.
  17. i did install it at his request....really not required.
  18. same...i stripped all the badges off mine...looks better IMHEO. I was considering putting a GTS-t sticker on the bootlid corner for a lol.
  19. fancy pants.....i use an old rusty WWII can opener.
  20. yes ive heard that plenty of times.
  21. the only time i would look at modifying these feeds is using the same size restrictor in both of them. This only would be considered in a big hp RB25 using an aftermarket oil pump. In NYTSKY's fairly tough 25 i left them as per factory.
  22. You are using hydraulic lifters...this feed is supplying them oil...starving your lifters of oil supply is unwise...i never have blocked them off and also never had RB25 oil control problems.
