go to this post This one and look at the second last video (the 7mb one)

towards the end of it you will see the two GTRs pulling out of the last corner on to the straight. the R34 has GTSS's and the R32 has a T04Z (Some of you will know Dave and his car)...to me the response is pretty similar but the T04Z car walks away in the top end

Im looking to get into tracking down the road a bit(no pun intended) and I still want a streetable car. 400 HP is a fairly easily achieveable number and it should give me enough power to stand out on the street and still be competitive. I also picked 400 HP as a number because if I didnt id start chasing big numbers like shane is, and my wallet would quickly disappear.

Im sending you a PM now shane.

Slide turbos would be good but I think the wait on them is about 2 months at this stage? Also there only rated to 300 kw so I would be close to maxing them out, unless that was 300 kw per turbo.

Shane, more info on the GT SS man?

The current wait is only 3 weeks on the RB26 highflows.

GTRgeoff is making 316rwkw at just under 1 bar with 3psi to go and a little head room.

I rate them at a mild 300rwkw to avoid dissapointment and confusion if someones engine is not up to scratch.

17psi on an unopened engine will yield up to 330-340rwkw on a GTR with our highflows.

With camshafts, will break 340-350rwkw. :P

You got everything else sorted ? full sway bars, shocks, springs, camber, caster, oil cooler, baffled sump, semi-slicks? etc.. You will get faster bang for buck doing all these things first... The power will be fun, but you're also risking an engine and/or gearbox rebuild.

just to reiterate what gordon said - supporting mods are a must... many seem to lose sight of this and wonder why they're forking out more money after they've rebuilt their motor.

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
