With much sadness the 4 Door will be put up for sale to make way for another GTR. This car was originally built by Martin Donnon at Willall Racing as part of "Project 11's" featured in 11 issue's of zoom magazine. Funly enough they never acheived a 11 second quarter. I did however =) 11.8 at WSID. The car setup works extremmely well. It runs a rare 5 speed Auto Nissan trans which also has a lockup high stall which gives 6 ratios! As you can imaging this makes the car very responsive at any rpm and also give suprisingly good fuel economy. During the original Build the transmission was fitted with a modified value body and kevlar clutch discs by Mike at MV automatics here in Adelaide. It was a very nice setup ,but now is better still. I've had the trans fitted with high performance valves and new kevlar discs during an overhaul earlier in the year so the shifts are now instant. The 3500rpm stall ensures lag free launches and multiples the torque to the extent you can pretty much fry the tyres at will at most speeds. When cruising however the lockup kicks in and she cruises just like the factory wanted...it really is an absolute pleasure to drive. The motor was stock and was rebuilt with new bearings, rings, 33 crank and turbo's. Standard bore 86mm CP forged pistons have been fitted to ensure a very reliable package. The car is also fitted with a full GTR rear cradle, (diff,etc), GTR front support for the R33 GTR front bumper and r32 GTR brakes all round.

Other upgrades are as follows:

R33 GTR front seats

Triple gauge dash cluster (white nissan)

Series 2 tail lights and center garnish

Full hard pipe kit (turbo inlets, turbo outlets, smooth transition twin turbo merge pipe)

Apexi filters

R34 AFM's x2

Apexi PFC

Apexi N1 Dual and std exhaust

boost set at a lazy 14psi max

Momo Evo Millenium style steering wheel

HSD damper and height adjustable coilovers

18" ROH 3 piece Strada wheels x4 + R34 std wheels x4

I haven't put the car on the dyno since I got it, however the tune has been adjusted each time the engine has been modified. I have many different tunes and data log files to go with the car. The current summer tune was comlpeted in the last month, runs 12.6:1 AFR and no knock what so ever.

The car has had most of the performance upgrades completed after my run at WSID and is now considerably faster. I won't give you a estimate of power, but I'm sure you can work it out from the time it has run

The car is currenlty registered and cleared through Regency for the engine change(papers included) so no need to worry about getting a canary.

The car will be ready for sale in the next few weeks. I originally purchased this car at a steel for $15,000 a year ago. After the additional mods and adding up how much I could part the car out for: I will be looking for $15,000.

just wondering how good is the fuel economy on this?

Yeah it'd be fine as soon as you went into boost range. Then you could watch you fuel gague bungee jump. lol

The car is in storage and hasn't been driven since my Brother-in-law got his GTR. He has just bought a house so if you through him offers you may get a real bargin. It does need some attention

-real bumper is burnt from the N1 dual exhaust (new silver bumper supplied, just fit)

-A wire from one AFM to the PFC is intermittent, just needs the break to be found

-two of the ROH rims have been dented and require re-rolling.

-DVD/SAT NAV has been removed but will be supplied

The engine is extremmely fresh and very clean any test welcome(leak down, compression, turbo play, headgasket, etc)

Get in quick

in terms of fuel economy, for those interested. im pretty sure this car was used for an article that involved tuning specifically for economy, and they got it from mid 14's down into the 11's (litres per 100km).

    • Ahhh, I need the whole head unit. I definitely needed to roll back through and review your setup, ha ha! Neat setup they have going on. I just need a full double din head unit. But I want good and responsive. I might have to review what the likes of pioneer have out these days.
    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
