Ahhh ok that's fair enough. I had a read through the thread and wasn't sure what to make of it. Will certainly be something I look at down the track.

In the mean time though I may just snap up the box that Widebody33 has for sale and be done with it. Down the track I can rebuild that box as it is indeed better than the current one :banana:

I really should change this thread name to... "Questions and shit that Kat want's to say about her car..."

Let me just say it's AMAZING how much different an exhaust that isn't stuffed makes! My car now sounds and feels frigging awesome!

A good 30kw difference.

i would throw the car on another dyno for comparisons sake as there might be some dyno figure fudging, because that's 20-30kw more than 99% of -7 setups make.

My car has always gone on the same dyno and I have all the sheets from the very first going up to this one. Just before the rebuild I had it on the ESP dyno and comparitively they matched.

Do the other 99% of -7 setups have a 2.8L stroker kit and the same setup as mine?

After the rebuild it has come back a totally different car to drive.

Hahahahaha gold!!! :D

I will be popping along to the next dyno day or dropping into ESP for a visit when I get the chance :down:

It's at 22psi (sorry missed that other question).

Seat of the pants dyno is pretty f**king impressed! Can safely say there's a lot of people that have been in it (even -30kws or so) have been pretty close to shitting their pants!

do i get an offer to be a passenger? lol i wanna see what 362rwkw feels like.

but i also agree, you need an all wheel figure, when you say "at all four" sounds more impressive.... well to me.... maybe because i dont have a gtr lol :D

LOL you are most welcome to come for a spin! This hasn't been a very good year for me so I haven't been out very much.

I have a little more work to do which is why I hadn't yet worried so much about an all wheel figure yet. The Autotech one is good because I have figures going from when I first fitted the power FC when the car was almost stock right up to now on the same dyno.

TBH there are a few things I need to do in terms of completion but I am so happy with how it feels now I don't give two shits what the final figures end up being anymore. I guess that's also because I'm in the ballpark of where I always wanted it.

Next year that leaves interior and brakes!!! What to do!!! :P

      WTB R34 GTR Guard Liners

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      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?

      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

      From Japan and back to Europe, my sh*tbox R34 GTT

      You have a knack for photography my friend. It makes the 86 look like a complete bucket. The 34 went with you to Europe and back. It's special. (we all feel the same about our 'shitboxes' that every bystander seems to absolutely love)
