btw nice turbo... what is it? GT35R?

GT30 with a 0.82 rear end... 0.7 comp cover...

Yes is a real Garrett not a copy... ($2000 turbo)

well ur 22g's off "the record"

and i bet urs goes harder :unsure:

that clutch gonna hold ur power col, or should i say torque? :P

Yes, yes it does go hard now, but im aiming for 300rwkw with about 600-650nm of torque...

The clutch i have ordered will hold up to about 400rwkw... Its a bit bitey but i got to test drive a 280rwkw r34 GT-T this morning with this clutch in it and i was very impressed with its performance. It about 30-40% heavier than standard but hold 3 times the torque of standard clutch.

Its an awsome setup. The twin plate was too noisy for my liking, at idle at the lights it sounded like i had rocks in my exhaust. Made the car sound like a bucket... Plus it was not exactlly perfect for my application due to the track work that the car will be seeing in the near future...

Ive given up trying to get a 11 second pass at 242rwkw... The best i got to was 12.4 and could not go any harder...

So at 300rwkw i should be a shoe in for a high 11 second pass on street tryes...

Then ill shoot for a mid/low 11 with semi slicks or drag slicks...

lol...well if we can get the adapter plate on and the sump modded and on, then engine in this week, it'll go off to the exhuast shop next week n then to get tuned! so maybe 2 weeks

col, it's gonna be one hell of a skyline, i like it how uve done it in stages, not just in one hit, and it seems u've covered all the basis :unsure:

next step will be to get the head modified and then the oiling modified to cope with ur track work?

ANSWER: Depends on whether they're telling you to put them near a source of heat... :unsure: But yeah most shops should have a basic understanding of what will and won't tolerate heat

Nah, I meant the shop has chosen that particular hose for the spot, and it's not tolerated heat at all, and melted... should they have known that the material they chose for that application wasn't going to handle the heat in that particular spot in the engine bay? Like, wouldn't you use something to tolerate higher temperatures near the turbo?

I have an oil cooler on the way ATM...

My head is stock and all i was gonna do in the future was to put bigger valve springs in and maby a set of cams...

Which is more than likely a head off application...may aswell get it ported and tidied up whilst its off? and better oil pump and crank collar...

it makes me laugh at how much all these things cost, quite sad hey :unsure:

If a shop does some work and, because of their work or choice of parts, it fails, it should be up to them to sort it out. In your case, they chose the hose and didn't make any effort to shield it from the heat that would quite obviously come from the exhaust/turbo side of an engine... they should at the very least replace it with something more suitable, and preferably repair any damage caused by the hose melting.
