Thanks man

Yeah didn't get much of a chance to take many pictures, plan was to take heaps but ended up driving most of the day

I reckon it needs spacers to get a better fit but cbf with spacers so I am just going to slam it and try and keep it legal height. Should look a lot better when its lowered

Cheers Chris. Yep original paint colour. The Series 2 Gunmetal (KN6 from memory) is slightly darker or a different/ more pearl or something. The front of the car has been resprayed though as it had a dodgy front bumper paint blend in the bonnet. Mic @ Micolour fixed that up for me though. Looking at some new rims so it may look a little different soon.

Is it back on the road Al!?

looking good, man it must be nice to have it all sorted... you will have to take me for a spin :(

Yep Nick, all sorted and back in force :D

Feels awesome on the road and could not be happier with the package; 325rwkw with full boost by 3000rpm :P

Next time we meet up, just come and ask for a spin, but best place would probably be at the next DECA. So disappointed that DECA masters has been cancelled :D

325rwkw and full boost by 3000rpm... f%#k me... you must have shares in a tire company;) in gear acceleration must be pretty special... I bet it feels good on the road with the 3L, so easy to drive hey

yeah sad about deca! I might go on the cruise planned for the 28th

heres are some of my brother old skyline which was done by iq auto,, but to bad he sold it to guy that came down from qlds

it got ba headlights

This car was parked close to my house (B**** Cls., Delahey). Always wondered if he was on SAU and what happened to it, as i hadn't seen it for a while.

Exactly Nick! Very easy to drive and VERY tractable on low boost (315rwkw :cool:), also get better fuel economy: 410km/45ltrs.

The boost switch only gives a 15rwkw peak power differance, but the low/mid power and torque increase is just insane and breaks traction in 3th, using in-gear acceleration (ie: use 3rd gear, cruise at 70km, then stomp the accerator: instant loss of traction :down:).

Gear acceleration is just awesome, even fifth gear feels like an acceleration gear.

Of course someone from QLD bought it.

Bright paint, huge kit. All they need now is the silly numberplates no one can understand :dry:

    • Yeah pretty impressive hey, good to see quality products not over-shooting their prices. That's what drew me to buy the hypergear turbo, just a shame I've never got the chance to see it in action
    • Thank you GTSBoy and MBS206 I have done the compression test with the motor out of the vehicle, reason for the test was to see if I needed to remove the head and do rings etc while its out. I'm in the process of respraying the vehicle and tidying up a few things. Story behind it all is I've just purchased the skyline and it was running when I got it, never drove it on the street though as I wanted to pull it down and do it all up again before registering it. the gentleman I purchased it from told me the motor has a forged bottom end and has a decent tune through it but I was going to pull the sump off anyway to see if it is a forged bottom end. that's why I thought id do a compression test beforehand. 
    • Man, I'm kind of amazed that the price of the turbo has not changed in 7 years. Everything else is inflating beyond reason, but not this? Good on Tao / hypergear I guess? Anyways, good luck with the sale!
    • I'm selling my brand new, in the box, never used Hypergear ATR45 - and I had some additions I paid for a few yrs back when I purchased it. Never ended up having the rest of the money to add all the mods at once, so I just ended up slowly selling each part. I originally had it internally gated, with the dump pipe, however I found it was incompatible with what I was going to use it for, so I contacted (I think Ken) from Hypergear, and he and I messaged back and forth & he got me to ship the turbo back, where they modified it & made it externally gated, and gave me the 5 bolt dump pipe attachment for custom welding. (Photos below) This turbo like I said has never touched the inside of an engine bay, it's completely brand new, never used, been sitting in the same box it arrived in, covered in plastic & all. Below are the photos of it: And while the guys at Hypergear were making it in-shop, they sent me some photos of the process: I'm looking at selling this just because I'm in need of the money right now, and don't have plans on modifying the 34 anytime soon - and from reviews & peformance sheets, this turbo had amazing results back when I was researching. The turbo was purchased in 2018 for $1.9k, with the mods I got added on. Looking at the website now, for the same turbo they sell (ATR45SAT), with the current addons it adds up to $1830 for the turbo Current addons included: - Bolted dump adaptor - Ball bearing CHRA - Braided oil feeding line So I'm looking to possibly sell it for around $1800, with shipping included in that 1.8k, It cost me around $120 to ship - so yeah thought I'd throw it out there and see if anyone was interested in purchasing. Cheers!
