nissan gt-r

Few months ago we were announcing that the Japanese tuner Amuse, broke the 600 hp barrier with the Nissan GT-R but without any extra information. Today, the technical information were revealed by the tuning house! With a new name, called the GT-R Phantom, the upgrade includes a new ECU software boosting the engine to an astonishing 611 hp at 6560 rpm and 775 Nm of torque.

The tuner also added a new exhaust system as well as a new adjustable suspension and standard brakes. At the exterior the GT-R Phantom received a carbon fiber front lip spoiler, new side sills and a carbon fiber rear wing spoiler. At the interior, everything remained the same, completed by the stylish Recaro sport seats. No words about the price yet!

Very sad to hear of Power House Amuse founder and number 1 driver Hideki Tanabe-san's passing away last weekend. The R1 Phantom was the last car he worked on and is legendary already in these early stages of R35 GT-R tuning.

I remember seeing this car at TAS in January and being blown away by the quality of the parts he made.

Big loss.

Amuse will carry on with Tanabe-san's wife at the helm for now.

    • They are under bucket shims. Tomei provides a test shim kit and then any measurement of shim required. 
    • I always wondered how you were supposed to buy a set of 24 buckets and somehow magically have every single one of them yield exactly the desired clearance. I would have thought you'd need to assemble a cam with either 12 "sample" or "example" buckets of known top thickness (or a single such sample/example 12 times over!!) measure clearances at every valve, and then do the usual math to work out what the actual "shimness" of each bucket needed to be, before buying the required buckets to make up he thicknesses that you didn't have on hand.
    • I now seem to be limited in power due to my rev limit/hydraulic lifters in my built RB25. I'm looking into converting over to Tomei solid lifters. Question for anyone that has done the conversion. I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  I don't know where I got this idea, as so far I see no mention of this in any of the Tomei documentation. It just states I need the Tomei solid buckets, solid lifter cams and upgraded springs. As my head is already built, all I would need is another set of 1000$ Kelford cams, 500$ buckets and about 4H hours of my time installing and I'm off to the races!?!? There's no way it's that simple, I must be missing something? 
    • I couldn't agree more. I should have started from the get-go with a NEO or solid bucket conversion. I started looking into converting over to solid lifters yesterday. Now for some reason I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  But I see no mention of this on any of the Tomei documentation. It just states that I need the Tomei solid buckets, solid lifter cams and upgraded springs. As my head is already built, all I would need is another set of 1000$ Kelford cams, 500$ buckets and about 4H hours of my time installing and I'm off to the races!?!?
