Hi guys,

Just thought I might share my video with ya'll. Went for a drive this morning (nice and cold), got up to about 200km/h.

Have alot of traction issues in 1st and 2nd gear, sometimes even third if you smash the gears in.

What do you guys think, not bad acceleration?

cheers

Nice man, I assume that was all done on a closed runway :cheers:

270 odd kw is my eventual power aim, if you don't mind me asking how much was the 2835 and what other mods do you have? How much boost you running? I was originally wanting a GT-RS but from everything I have seen it will struggle to net 270+ without cams or excessive boost.

Hey mate, don't mind you asking at all.

The turbo was about $3,250 delivered to Canberra, Australia. I paid a little more as I wanted to pay with paypal (ALWAYS PAY WITH PAYPAL when buying things from overseas!!!.

Running about 17-18PSI (It fluctuates depending on the weather)

I got the normal mods; 555cc Nismo Injectors, Bocsh 040 fuel pump, GReddy front mount, Splitfire coilpacks, straight through exhaust, power FC, Cold air intake with heat shield, and the HKS GT2835 turbo with the HKS split dump pipe.

The turbo is ALOT laggier than stock, but yes MUCH MUCH tougher!

Personally, I don't think its worth it compared to the GT-RS, if I had a second chance, I would've gone for the GT-RS, purely because of the money factor. But then again, you do get the split dump with the 2835 turbo kit.....

Nonetheless, both are great turbos!

Cheers

I have 314rwkw and its not that much quciker than what you have recorded, well done.

haha, yeah, you were on a private runway

Cheers mate.

Yeah, ofcourse I was on a closed runway! :cheers:

Mafia, when you achieved your 12.4 1/4 mile time, what was your 0-60 time? I thought with 314rwkw you should be in the VERY low 12's, maybe even break into the high 11s?

hey mate, the power was down a lot when I ran that time, as I just installed a new fuel pump and the AFR's were at 10:1 lol.

Not sure what it runs now with the new power, as the track is not finished. It was destroyed in the floods we had recently.

Be interestingf you could run a wheel speed sensor off a front wheel that way the loss of traction doesnt mess with your speedo.

Looks grunty, only, why post footage of you doing crazy speeds in a public place like youtube then link it on a public forum ;)

Because it was done on private property and I would like to see you or the police prove otherwise :happy:

Perhaps he was indicating to other cars he was entering pits?

Look we know he did it on a public road but the point is he filmed ONLY the instrument cluster and at no point did he say it was done on a public road. Innocent until proven guilty and there is nothing conclusive for the cops to go on. Lets just apreciate the video for what it is, which is someone with a new turbo showing us what its like :happy:

Thats interesting... The 2835 is usually considered to be a relatively lag free turbo...

I'm not saying that the turbo is a lag monster, but compared to the stock turbo (especially when I first got in the car after the dyno tune), it was sooooo much laggier than the stock turbo... But when it hits, it's nothing but smiles! :nyaanyaa:

Thanks for all the comments guys.

VERY nice turbo (HKS GT2835 Pro S) indeed.

cheers

Very nice video :( Was interesting to observe, I can't tell watching it if my turbo (.82a/r GT3076R) is any laggier - nothing obvious thats for sure . Something else which is interesting is your car is definitely a bit quicker than mine, I have made very similar power number but on a hub dyno so all it does is confirms what every already knows - hub dynos read a bit higher haha. When I sort a couple of things out I am tempted to try a 17-18psi tune and have a blat at the local race track (I actually have one 15mins drive from my house!! :( ) and see what mine does the rolling to 200k thing like.

Should be good for some rapid 1/4 mile times like that, especially with some sticky tires.

    • ok so if i wanted to go 18's i would go for 8's  in front 30+ or 32+ off set at front and the back 9 would be ok? what offset should i aim for.. then can i do some  hunting for wheel rim choices..    If i get this - will this fit all around: Size: 18 x 8.5 +37 - n what tyres size tyre should i get for front n back?  
    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
