  1. been waiting for this day B) i always knew theyd do it even with so much negative critisism props to vw for building the best of the best 1000hp with warranty!
  2. shit yeah, finally something unique in such a common hobby be sure to post up some movies for those of us who cant see it in person
  3. geez ide love to have that engine to play with in my opinion the best response/power combo with a built engine would be twin HKS GT-RS, capable of 400-500rwkw and can handle upto 2bar without a problem thats assuming you want twins, single probably the new (well new-ish) HKS TO4Z
  4. Sent you an email ..
  5. thanks gordo, ill havta get back to you though, need to sort this car out and get it sold first - if thats what i end up deciding on i think its about time to move on, ive had lots of fun with this car but am really keen to step it up a notch
  6. yeah guess ill just do that, cheers!
  7. Looking for good condition steering wheel?
  8. Hmm hard decision; Save 40K, spend 15k on descent working 32gtr then pour 25k into it or series 3 r33 GTR im leaning more for the lata option, then again things can change in the next year or 2, Evo9 at $55k is fairly tempting plus im waiting for an official price on the next GTR :confused:
  9. the least you would want to do is: Forged pistons, new rings and wrist pins : $1500 GTR conrods (checked etc) : $100-500 New N1 bearings: $500 New head gasket: $500 Then it depends on the wordshops labour and maching costs +- about $2000
  10. Nah you only get a bare block You can order brand new N1 GTR engines from nissan and various other companies for about $12,000 but this doesnt include any of the ancillaries.. wiring.. etc
  11. wheres a good place to get a bosch 040 cheap in person?
  12. haha i hear that, definatly joining that boat in the near future
  13. Definately nissan, but have good words for all companies involved in the 90s turbo car era oh gotta love ferrari too
  14. Yeah true that, I was kinda under the guise of either turn current car into a monster or get a shitbox for awhile and save for something thats a big step up. Still going to do some investigating, but might put new gbox in and front tyres just to see if the gtst will sell quickly, if so, guess its a pintara or magna to put around in for awhile
  15. Yeh pics and who built the car in japan?
  16. Ok thanks for the replies guys, so nobody knows if gavin does the engine work himself? ill havta make some phone calls but the only way im pouring money into this is if i trust the people 100% otherwise ill just put the new gearbox in my car, sell it and go for a GTR instead
  17. im starting to have probs too with stalling now and have one of those walbro gss341 or whatever think its time to get a bosch wheres best place to get one gordon?
  18. Ok thanks for the replies Can anyone give me an estimate on the labour/machining/balancing costs? I was thinking about $2000 anyone thats done this tune in and give me some info Can the rb26 HKS 2.7L stroker kit be used on an rb25det block safely?
  19. Hey Guys, Been outta the loop for awhile cos the cars been off the road Thinking about going the next step and getting some internal work done while my gearbox is rooted Primarily thinking gavin woods because the main thing im looking for is QUALITY Has anyone got engine internal work done at gavin woods? Will be making the necessary phone calls etc once the money is there to be used but for the moment can anyone tell me if Gavin does the engine building themselves or contract to another place? Also, who else can provide quality rebuilds including machining (ill be supplying most of the parts) in brisbane>? Most likely looking to spend around 6k, something like; Forgies + N1 rings, N1 bearings and reconditioned GTR conrods plus all the balancing and machining etc To eventually mate with a 3037s @1.5bar + all supports Any advise would be great, as im kinda throwing ideas around at the moment. Cheers!
  20. Falken RT215 245/45/17 Dry: 8/10 Wet: 5/10 Overall: 7/10 Great tyre, especially when you have the right suspension/camber settings Nankang NS-1 Dry: 4 Wet: 2 Overall 3/10 Cheap, not THAT bad but wouldnt buy again
  21. ive got one thats missing a plug ordered new one from nissan japan for $200!
  22. I made 180.3 rwkw on 13psi without safc2 tuned, And 189.9 rwkw on 10psi with safc2 tuned
  23. Few q's why was it such extensively rebuilt in every area but not for big power/fast track times etc ? Reason for sale, and where bouts u located?
  24. Ive used Motul 300v chrono every 3000km +- since i bought the car First time ive ever changed my oil and actually FELT a difference (had nissan genuine in before)
