Yeah, has bought his S15.

The GTR is making 256kw at all four on 14psi. However its still running standard turbo's. Can anyone confirm? I thought maybe it would be 256Rear wheels rather than all wheel.

Thats a lot of power with standard turbo's for the boost level?

also from what i read, the best he did quarter mile is a 12.61(with a soft launch), i though it woulda went harder than that with 20K put into it even with a soft launch...... anyway car look swell looked after.

just get sum1 u trust to check the vehicle mechanically and for any crash history or repairs. always helps to have piece of mind, no matter who u are buying off.

20K goes along way with a RB26 and yet it still only makes 265kw??

Where did the rest of the money go? :)

Maybe he's holding back the real power figures?........go the GTR!! :laugh:

you do realise that power is not an indication of how good or reliable a car is right?

supporting mods wont make more power, but will make it more reliable. ie. sump extension, etc etc.

IT has bigger injectors, pump, cams and cam gears, power fc, new intercooler, full 3" exhaust from turbo back. It also has newer standard turbo's.

I myself couldnt see 20 000 right there either, but then again I dont know much about GTR's.

Which is why I thought I would ask you guys.

This engine was built using about $18000, it makes a lot more than 265kw and is has the strength and reliability to support it. So when it comes to reliability versus power, I think I realise more than most mate.

Hiiiiiiiiiiyooooooooo ;)

If he has spent $20000 on this GTR then I'd say he would have reciepts for where it went so just get him to take you through exactly what he's done to the car and that it has the right modification plates to go with it.

thats a slug power fighure for a gtr .. i only spent 8grand on new turbos n exhust i got 300kw at all wheels .. im sure his either not sure or hypin or maybe did a major engine rebuild mine cost 15grand on its on to rebuild

    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it. 
    • Not yet quite as bad as what we've seen a Jim Berry clutch do in an R32 GTR though when it decided to cut a chassis rail in half... Still very very gnarly and a great reason to avoid.
