How do I find out the boot capacity of my R34 GTT??

I've tried some online searches (ie: google).. But to no avail...

I've got a bet on with my dad whether my boot is bigger or the family car's (E46) 320i boot is bigger...

see how much water you can fill it with. who's ramon btw? sorry to be unhelpful

lol just got back from gym when I wrote that, I had no blood in my brain at the time..

If I filled my boot with water wouldn't all my carpet rot??

Also, the bloody thing would leak... Surely there are specs on it somewhere...

lol i just got back from there too. hence why the title confused me so. im not serious bout the water.

fill each boot with jelly beans- count jelly beans and multiply the individual bean volume by the total amount :ninja:

ah but you underestimate due to space between the beans.

try to find a workshop manual man. best place to look 4 specs

Woohoooo...I got it!

Sedan is 423L and coupes are 316L

Found answer HERE

YOU get jelly beans now! :):):rolleyes:

{Edit} Now to find the boot capacity of an E46 BMW 320i...

:P

Umm, if you got a tape measure and measured it you could do BxHxD to calculate volume...but that doesn't account for the irregular shape...

I'd just accept defeat.

you could do the basic (lxbxh) + simpsons rule for flat area then use the (1/2 base x l x h) to make it into a triangular prism for volume then add together dunno how accurate it would be but it would be better then just lxbxh

    • 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!
