lol u remind me of my mate with his mazda mps - he dumps the clutch all the time & i ask him why?

to be honest ive never seen anyone do that in gtr whilst rolling, on launch im all for it though :)

sounds tough :)

Thats me showing my annoyance from going over the ripple strip...releaves the frustration ;)

Looks like a weapon!!!!

A fair bit of choo choo chooing going on there.... Have you tried the "twin turbo pipe mod"?

great suggestion paul!

your new setup wont have this problem with the hard pipe kit anyway :thumbsup:

whats going on with this thread - the last few posts have vanished?

I had the same happen to me yesterday...had to re-post

I feel the twin turbo pipe mod may cause some restriction on the front turbo. I would rather go with a HKS or chinese hard pipe kit that has a smooth transition. I am looking at installing 6boost manifolds so will need a custom setup to suit anyway as the rear turbo outlet fouls on Kyle's manifold.

how much can u get the chinese hard pipe kit for?

ive heard the jap pipe kits are close to 2k ;)

beware of aftermarket manifolds & subsequent cracking

i know that mark berry did a back2back test with his hi octane r32gtr which was making over 400rwkw & in fact he lost mid range power with tomei extremes manifolds (top end was was within 1kw of the factory port matched manfolds)

The Chintech kit is around $320 bucks. I have fitted one. It wasn't perfect and the Ypipe is really thin but the car did make more power everywhere.

Yeah, I'm not real impressed with the stainless mani's I also feel I have lost some mid range. Did Mark's test reviel that the STD cast manifolds gave him more mid range over the Tomei's? I feel the 6 Boost would be better again than OEM....just a wee pain to fit up.

Matt.

Wasn't it you that was selling that duel entry ARC cooler a few months ago? I know it was 70 mm but that is/was a awsome kit. You didnt want to run it on this weapon?

Yeah that was me. I have the M105 ARC cooler now. Love ARC. Will go back to the twin turbo pipe replacement when I change the Manifolds. I was unsure if the M75(70mm) was going to cool and flow what I needed so upgraded.

yeah the comparison was between the tomei's vs standard (not sure about 6boost)

i dont understand - are u going back to the factory twin turbo pipe?

I have the factory pipe now. We made 824hp with a similar setup and the factory pipe so it is definately not a restriction. Will look at an aftermarket Y pipe in the future.

are u looking at running the baffle mod in the factory pipe as well?

u getting any shuffle/surge on light throttle under low revs?

best way test it, 50kmh in 4th then flatten the throttle

    • Well, this is probably where a wiring diagram and a multimeter come into play.
    • I can say to anyone thats doing this; having done a number of R clusters; just be careful if its an unknown cluster.  It takes a bit of force to pull up; but if it feels excessive then its probably stuck. I've had this and pulled the entire hair spring out; and I can tell you; its not easy getting the correct spring replacement with the correct inner diameter and winding. In my case someone had used some sort of adhesive to stick it to the spindle and it pulled the whole spindle out; which the force seperated the hairspring from the spindal and caused it to deform.  You may have to clean it (IPA); or in my case if i'd known i should have used some sort of solvent on it.  Also check out Cruizin Central on eBay. He does all sorts of dials; and you can email him with any custom designs you want. So if you want like certain logos etc...he'll send you a mock of what it will look like then you accept the order and he'll take care of the rest. Fantastic dials and he can do basically any design you want. 
    • Have you confirmed its the actual axles? Also the wheel bearings that mount on the hubs to hold the axles wear out. I replaced mine as they got play in them. It sorted my play issue. 
    • Ive converted a few clusters for the R33 with 320km/h dials. On the back there are some pads which can be bridged or unbridged (using solder or wick braid) to calibrate it. There is one bridge which is for MPH <> KPH; and there are combinations of bridges to offset it. There is probably a diagram  For example; this is my conversion for a 180km/h dial to a 320km/h dial (I put custom GT-R dials on it with the GTS25t layout) If you have J2 soldered (assuming the S clusters have a similar config to the R clusters); you may need to remove that solder
    • Back on topic 😉, these are some of the notable pages from the booklets that are supplied with each weekly parts update. I never knew the BNR32 test mule car had an S13 Silvia front end... *Edit: On closer inspection the test car still had the R32 body, but only the front end had Silvia panels etc.
