Hopefully the newer engine might last a bit longer before I have to build a stronger one with forgies etc. Can't wait to get it on to the track - best fun to have in your car legally! We should have a SAUSA track day at Mallala.............

Me too.

The next practice day is on the 24th Feb.

http://mallala.com/practicedays.htm

I think I can attend this one.

Are you free blue32?

Does anyone else want to go?

migh be able to make it - work is ballastic atm! Still gotta install the d-jetro and injectors + tune and then I need some track wheels.......anyone interested in some r32 gtst rims and 6 tyres to suit plus a coupla 17 inch tyres only? I'm after some 17x9 GTR offset rims and tyres for the track. Must have good clearance on the inner rim to clear the 13 inch AP brakes.......

wait till you get it 4 wheel hydroplaning in the wet ! fun.fun.fun. by the way let peter hall dyno the car. he just did my car after another one of my air meter when caput and found martin's tune to be way out in my car. ie tune with martin 263rwk and with peter 292rwk both running 1.1 bar on n1's and power fc

by the way seemed the problem was the timing. need a boost controler so i can hold 1.4 bar and should make 30-50 more kw but dont want to see gear box going bang. 292 is enough for a bit of fun anyway. anyone know if the power fc with hand controler will enable you to switch between 2 settings ie 1.1bar for regular driving and 1.4bar for [HSV i just beat one] floging or giving bikes a go. he he he

You guys were right. Got my D-jetro in and 700cc injectors today and got Martin to tune it - at first it made 291kws and then he went to lunch so I got Peter to retune it while he was out! LOL made another 20kws at the wheels after a couple of minutes in Peters hands. Very stoked with 311kw at the wheels.........

Yeh nice work........311kw in a GTR is VERY usable!

hey blue , just thought i would let you now that my car made 199rwk when it got here from japan stock. had sub zero mick and mark make my exhaust and intercooler plus pipe work and hks dumps and it dopped to185rwk put in the power fc and tune brought it back to 265rwk's on stock turbos with out upping boost. now got n1 turbos and still running standard injectors to make 292rwk's . when i get some spare cash maybe then new injectors and boost controler and then more power. what are you running, turbos etc?

Nah...........just messing with you! Martin tuned it and I'm really happy with it :lol:

Congrats on the number blue

You should wait until both Martin and Peter go for lunch. Keir will tune the car. I think that's how I got 424rwkw :lol: ....or was it Martin :D

Did you use boost 98 fuel?

Did you get Martin/Peter to compare your dynograph with the 32RB26 witb N1 turbo?

Did you get them to compare to my dynograph?

It shoudl be an interesting comparision.

BTW are you coming out to Mallala this Friday? I very sure that I will be there.

Hey guys - I am running the r34 Rb26 -

ARC bigger intercooler

blitz intake cast thingos and filters

sard 700cc injectors + regulator

Pwr FC d-jetro

Bigger fuel pump

Turbos - we figure they are N1s of some description!!! Definantly steel wheel and roller bearing with bigger exhaust housing.

Std dump pipes

std manifolds

Boost 98

Car picked up heaps of grunt across the rev range - 30ish kw at the top end but an average of 60ish kw through the mid!!!

Compared to a std 32gtr: exhaust/filters/1 bar made peak 5400N tractive effort - mine made peak approx 7000N!!! And damn it goes heaps better too.....

Friday - have to do that work thing damn it 9krpm.......but soon as I get some track wheels I'll be there! Isn't it supposed to be 35 degrees???

    • The average previous owner for these cars were basically S-chassis owners in the US. Teenagers or teenager-adjacent. I often tell people that neglect is easier to fix than something that was actively "repaired" by previous owners.
    • Update 3: Hi all It's been a while. Quite a lot of things happened in the meantime, among other things the car is (almost) back together and ready to be started again. Things that I fixed or changed: Full turbo removal, fitting back the OEM turbo oil hardlines. Had to do quite a bit of research and parts shopping to get every last piece that I need and make it work with the GT2860 turbos, but it does work and is not hard to do. Proves that the previous owner(s) just did not want to. While I was there I set the preload for the wastegates to 0,9bar to hopefully make it easier for the tuner to hit the 370hp I need for the legal inspections that will follow later on. Boost can always go up if necessary. Fitted a AN10 line from the catch can to the intake hose to make the catchcan and hopefully the cam covers a slight vacuum to have less restrictive oil returns from the head and not have mud build up as harshly in the lines and catch can. Removed the entire front interior just shy of the dashboard itself to clean up some of the absolutely horrendous wiring, (hopefully) fix the bumpy tacho and put in LED bulbs while I was there. Also put in bulbs where there was none before, like the airbag one. I also used that chance to remove the LED rpm gauge on the steering column, which was also wired in absolute horror show fashion. Moved the 4in1 Prosport gauge from sitting in front of the OEM oil pressure gauge to the center console vents, I used a 3D printed vent piece to hold that gauge there. The HKB steering wheel boss was likely on incorrectly as I sometimes noticed the indicator reset being uneven for left vs. right. In the meantime also installed an airbag delete resistor, as one should. Installed Cube Speed premium short shifter. Feels pretty nice, hope it'll work great too when I actually get to drive. Also put on a fancy Dragon Ball shift knob, cause why not. My buddy was kind enough to weld the rust hole in the back, it was basically rusted through in the lowermost corner of the passenger side trunk area where the wheel arch, trunk panel and rear quarter all meet. Obviously there is still a lot of crustiness in various areas but as long as it's not rusted out I'll just treat and isolate the corrosion and pretend it's not there. Also had to put down a new ground wire for the rear subframe as the original one was BARELY there. Probably a bit controversial depending on who you ask about this... but I ended up just covering the crack in the side of the engine block, the one above the oil feed, with JB Weld. I used a generous amount and roughed up the whole area with a Dremel before, so I hope this will hold the coolant where it should be for the foreseeable future. Did a cam cover gasket job as the half moons were a bit leaky, and there too one could see the people who worked on this car before me were absolute tools. The same half moons were probably used like 3 times without even cleaning the old RTV off. Dremeled out the inside of the flange where the turbine housing mates onto the exhaust manifolds so the diameter matches, as the OEM exhaust manifolds are even narrower than the turbine housings as we all know. Even if this doesn't do much, I had them out anyways, so can't harm. Ideally one would port-match both the turbo and the manifold to the gasket size but I really didn't feel up to disassembling the turbine housings. Wrapped turbo outlet dumps in heat wrap band. Will do the frontpipe again as well as now the oil leak which promted me to tear apart half the engine in the first place is hopefully fixed. Fitted an ATI super damper to get rid of the worn old harmonic balancer. Surely one of the easiest and most worth to do mods. But torquing that ARP bolt to spec was a bitch without being able to lock the flywheel. Did some minor adjustments in the ECU tables to change some things I didn't like, like the launch control that was ALWAYS active. Treated rusty spots and surface corrosion on places I could get to and on many spots under the car, not pretty or ideal but good enough for now. Removed the N1 rear spats and the carbon surrounding for the tailpipe to put them back on with new adhesive as the old one was lifting in many spots, not pretty. Took out the passenger rear lamp housing... what do you know. Amateur work screwed me again here as they were glued in hard and removing it took a lot of force, so I broke one of the housing bolts off. And when removing the adhesive from the chassis the paint came right off too. Thankfully all the damaged area won't be visible later, but whoever did the very limited bodywork on this car needs to have their limbs chopped off piece by piece.   Quite a list if I do say so myself, but a lot of time was spent just discovering new shit that is wrong with the car and finding a solution or parts to fix it. My last problem that I now have the headache of dealing with is that the exhaust studs on the turbo outlets are M10x1.25 threaded, but the previous owner already put on regular M10 nuts so the threads are... weird. I only found this out the hard way. So now I will just try if I can in any way fit the front pipe regardless, if not I'll have to redo the studs with the turbos installed. Lesson learned for the future: Redo ALL studs you put your hands on, especially if they are old and the previous owners were inept maniacs. Thanks for reading if you did, will update when the engine runs again. Hope nothing breaks or leaks and I can do a test drive.
    • No those pads are DBA too  but they have colors too. I look at the and imo the green "street" are the best.
    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny
