a guy bought a 32 gtr at work

we thought it had some goodies but was basically stockish

it ran 10.9 on slicks

so its got at a minimum

some sort of low mount twins , we thought just n1s but who knows

remap

full exhaust

hd clutch (which has died since)

intake

injectors and pump

but nothing too crazy

i didnt believe it but it did run a 10

The best way to run a 10 in a GTR, is strip it of absolutely everything, and then chop the roof and boot off in an attempt to make it less than 1000kg. And that would cost you zilch :)

Does the $5k include the rebuild after you blow it up trying? I dont think it would count if you did a 10.99 with the car blowing up at the 401m mark.

But really why bother when you can do it in an old VK or something for $10k including the car :thumbsup: Like its 400m, does it really matter what you do it in? Its going to feel pretty much the same.

Can be done............

1-1 Used Big single Turbo$1700....including manifold

2-Power fc d jetro...installed and tuned.....$1700

3-Bosch fuel pump...$200

4-Second hand set of injectors...555...or...600....$450

5-Nitro...second hand...$350.....fitting $300

You will need to fit fuel pump....Turbo...injectors yourself.....

Leave the tuner to fit...d jetro and Nitro...

Total cost.....$4700......

You are going to run in the tens....but you will fry your clutch and maybe some other things.... :thumbsup:

The day that someone actually tries this with a GTR is the day they should have said GTR confiscated & replaced with something they are more deserving- like a Camira or a Gemimi . I'll second Omurru's comments but I guess that's part of the down-side of such a car becoming so "affordable" but then again for every GTR that gets trashed I guess that will eventually make the rest more valuable over time :thumbsup:

Having said that, it would be interesting to see someone to try this with a big WET nitrous system & a good progressive controller. That way you could run stock everything, incl ECU & injectors etc. Wind the CAS back a bit to knock some timing outa the entire Ign map for when the gas comes in, launch the car with 0% nitrous to be nice to the clutch, be gentle-ish with the gas map 'til you're into 3rd to lessen the chance of grenading the box, losing traction etc then get aggressive with the bottle & with a huge top-end rush I reckon the 10 is a big chance IF you don't pop the bottom-end.

WET Nitrous Kit

(With ALL the fruit) $2500

Progressive Controller $500

Sticky Micky's $500

WBO2 $500

Celebration/Commiseration

Party & Tow (If Req'd) $500

10/1 Bet to cover costs $500

DONE!!

Tyres?

Clutch?

I think its definiately possible what if you cut of the roof, took off the bonnet/boot, removed all lights/AC/trim, took off all the guards and drove the stripped bare chassis with...

ECU-1000

2nd hand turbos-2000

fuel system-1500

tryes-500

you wouldn't be allowed to do an official run but anythings possible :P

Well weight is against you take out the seats, sound deading, angle grinder to the doors no back bar or side skirts and any think else thats not welded down.

JB clutch $1200

3 stage 150shot per stage NOS system

Why has no one done this stock Rb26 4-6k replacement value and you have just kill a good GTR. All so the Z tune could do it maybe with a tick of Nos

A nitrous kit a a few other things to get power down (tyres) will be under $5k all up in part cost.

It may or may not run the 10 in the short number of passes it will run before something important is broken into little peices.

I say invest the $5k for a few years and get more money.

Actually if you only have $5k in funds you can't afford to own a stock second hand GTR and race it. Second hand import GTRs cost an average of $2-3k per year to keep from being put off the road, if you drive it every day. The first few years usually break the unsuspecting hence they are frequently bought and sold, even on this forum.

    • I'm actually not sure - I think it was "Stealth Performance" (It really is near impossible to find a FEMALE 1/8BSPT to 1/8NPT male at ALL) but having the thing leveraged on a 90 degree angle on a small aluminium fitting is not too smart. Also in not too smart, I've drilled out the center of the broken fitting so there's maybe 0.00001mm of thread to bite into, so yeah. I may have to get it drilled/tapped/plugged entirely. Given I could conceivably tap a thread/adapter/pressure line in any point in the oil system I suppose it's feasible to run a line to the Nissan Sensor to keep the dash working. Do these exist in AN fittings and the like? Like an AN fitting that has a NPT (or other?) thread as well for putting a sensor in?
    • I would agree.  There will be an amount of boost you could run safely with an otherwise factory system, but it would be low enough to not be worth the cost.  And if you are reliving your 20s, you know a 'little bit' was never enough. Personally, if I didn't want to spend the money, then stick with NA bolt-ons, and maybe a tune.
    • Fuark, at least the motor survived. What brand was the fitting that snapped?
    • Wrong question. There's no point in spending the rather large sum of cash and effort to add turbo, without taking it to the "sensible" limit of the motor itself. If you have to upgrade injectors, etc, then so be it. That is a tiny fraction of what it will cost you to turbo it.
    • Measure voltage at the starter solenoid terminal when the key is at start and it has clicked. If it is really low, then the suspicion falls on the ignition switch (contacts or wiring thereof) as causing a voltage drop instead of sending enough volts to throw the solenoid all the way to engage the starter itself. If it is a decent voltage, then the suspicion is on the solenoid. Might have s horted coil, or might hva dirty contacts. Rip the starter off, dismantle, clean up contacts and inspect winding. It might not be possible to see if there is a short in the winding though. I have a spare starter here that I could measure the resistance of the coil, as a guide to about what it should be, if you need a comparison. <parts hoarder>No you cannot have it.</parts hoarder>
