To be honest I don't know - I've only been to PI in the R34 once.. the lap time wasn't anything great since I was on street tyres, and it was well before i made a few significant power/handling upgrades :) more just for fun than anything else. I took my old 200sx to PI a few times before, but I'm super keen to get out there with the R34 again and try out my new setup B)

Yeah thanks Andrew, I think once u are comfortable and have confidence in the car, u can take most corners with great speed without fear of sliding off, especially with brand new RE55's....

I reckon I could still improve on that, we'll see next month, round 2 is at PI....

Oh com eon. Dont tease, what times Jack?  The new turbos feel as good on the track as they do the street?  :)

Well, let's just say I did an unofficial 1:50, as the last session of the day was not 'officially' timed for some reason.... Crazy Frank and Steve (Black 550 Maranello) hand timed me in the last session with a best of 1:50.06. On the piarc site I registered a 1:52 in the second last session.... Last time I was at PI my best was a 1:58.....

Going to try and dip into the 49's next month..

Roy, turbos feel awesome, so much torque down low and response is second to none compared to old setup.....

hey Jack,

what turbo's are you running now?? no more t517z's??

Dane

Hey Dane,

T517's are gone. replaced with GT2560R's, similar to 2530's but more response and spool up quicker, they lack the top end of the T517's but I can live with that, so much nicer to drive.....

Yeah Matt, what times??????????????

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      Definitely do-able haha. I will give it a try if the fuel pump hanger does not solve the issue. Just need to find some quiet time in the area, Malta is like a big city and I live right next to the main hospital so it is very busy during the day. I'll be installing it in about 2 weeks, found a garage that is pretty knowledgeable and has the necessary tools. This garage has worked on multiple builds, even for competitions. They even asked me to stay with, so I should be fine.

      R33 GTR running -9 with no tune

      Just to add, I found the r32 gtr ecu the most forgiving, the r33 one would get the shits.

      For what it’s worth I drove my gtr for over a decade with gt-ss as a true daily after I pulled off the -5s, I had it engineered and went with stock ecu etc.  never skipped a beat.    I would only worry if you can’t get good fuel all the time in a tropical paradise

      Engine model

      By Bwagz · Posted

      I bought an engine from a friend of a friend many years ago, it was sold to me as a RB25det Neo.    recently I started pulling it apart and noticed that the intake manifold was pretty different from others that I had seen on RB engines so did a bit of research and found that it was a non turbo manifold. So I’m sceptical now that it is a NEO DET and just thinking it’s a NEO DE (it does have a turbo strapped to it currently).    can you identify the engine model from the numbers on the block?
