Yep, it was actually built by Racingline. I gave it to Ice but they split before they got started and it was finished by Nigel and Karl at Racingline.

It is now owned by another forum member.

I live right next door to the Daily Planet lol

Aiming to get back to the dyno the weekend (or Friday) after the easter long weekend.

Guilt, will you be free sometime around then?

I want to wind the boost up from 17PSi to 19PSi also. Hopefully then with a bit more boost and the hi flow cat, it will crank out ~300AWKW.

It will be interesting to get a power run done on a Sydney Dyno down the track to compare results.

+1 for pepe's avatar.. :)

What other body parts did she flash you?

Sorry to get off topic here, but until there is more information about Bakes's build the boobies have caught my attention!

Guys if you have a look at this post, it appears a "before" power figure was known (late December 2008);

Im starting to collect parts now for my goal of ~320AWKW.

My R34 GTR was stock when I bought it, I have installed the following:

* Exhaust: HKS Front pipe and Cat Back with Hi Power Muffler.

* Fuel: Nismo Fuel Pump and Fuel Pressure Regulator.

* Control: HKS EVC 6 Boost Controller

* Intake: HKS SPL Piping Kit with Super Flow Pod Filters.

Current Power: 240AWKW at 1.2 Bar

When was the compliance cat discovered? Quite strange to change the front pipes and the cat back without doing cat at the same time, even so, if it was a POS cat, surely any decent exhaust shop wouldve mentioned it when the car was picked up so it could be fixed in the future, or even right then if they were trying to get some more money out of the job at that time.

Very suprised it has a restrictive cat if what Bakes posted in that above post was correct.

Well Bakes, good luck with it :thumbsup:

Car came from Japan with HKS front pipe and HKS rear pipe with Hi Power Muffler and with stock or compliance cat. I wasnt aware it was the stock cat at the time I typed the old info.

Some body probably forgot to take the rag out of the inlet when they had the engine apart to keep all the dirt and crap out and that is what the problem is .

Dont laugh , I've seen it done before .

im my defence i was on my 16th beer and it was only a mates gtr

lol

    • I mean it's a bit late to say "This won't have any tangible effect and it is not worth spending more than about three seconds on it, please just enjoy the car" But I said it anyway. Does the pod actually get any airflow in that position behind a bumper like that?
    • Hey guys - apologies for digging this up. Has this website been shutdown or is the outage temporary?
    • So, went shopping at Just Jap for things that might work for the intake  After some trial fitting there I ended up with a 3" x 45° silicone bend, a 3" x 300mm alloy straight, and a humped joiner, some minor trimming will be required to shorten some of the stuff, but nothing that is beyond my "ham fisted" skills The guy at Just Jap was most helpful as we had all sorts of joiners,  bends and stuff out trial fitting  Laying it out above the stuff in there it seems everything will fit nicely, and looking at it, it is probably the way I should have been looking at doing it from the beginning, probably..... In the end it is a front bar off job anyway to remove the original stuff behind the front bar that is taking up the required realestate needed, so maybe a Thursday or Friday job And because I'm a hopeless consumer, I grabbed some new steel wheel nuts, the current ones are a spline drive type with a "security" socket, that somehow someone keeps misplacing, the new ones are a basic black steel 17mm hex socket In other news: I just did my "final" tax return, I am now officially a old retired veteran pensioner, and I'm milking the system for all it's worth,  life is good
    • I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!  
    • Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
