From what little playing around we got to do indoors the converter seems fairly tight but I would imagine it has to be reasonably tight to hold over 1000hp to 6000rpm. I'd say we'll have to get the gas in fairly earlier to get it right up on the converter quick enough for racing. I dont really want to get it in to early if you no what i mean as it makes massive torque quite early. May even have to look at doing it progessively, like 50 in at 3k the full 200 in at like 4500. We'll just have to see when we do a bit more playing in a fortnight.

let us all know how you go with the box holding input shafts, I have one in a GTR here with only 450rwkw no nos and havent even used the transbrake yet and have snapped 3 input shafts the last of which was a custom made 25mm chromoly unit. (standard is 21mm).

Looks the goods Dave, cant wait to see it run

What box are you running though and what have you done to it overall??

Yes that's right -30 bottom end.

Colour spectrum - it's out there i know but when you got it flaunt it i rekon plus the paint job was sponsored by Mandurah smash repairs and Creative works - so i simply let em go! Not for the street but hey that's not where it's going to live hey?

Thanks for the sensible comments guys , as you would all be aware it takes a lot of effort, $$$$$$$$ and know how to get one of these GTR's to this stage,after all they are really a circuit car.

Being a purist at heart I have endeavoured to keep her as close to all Nissan as possible, right down to the box. We will then be able to compare Nissan GTR with Nissan GTR if you get my drift!

Admittedly the Nissan products have all been modified and strengthened but is'nt that half the fun?

The box is basically the same as yours but forward pattern.

Balanced carrier input shaft,

over sized and honed front carrier,

Kevlar bands

billet clutch hubs

extra clutches

high flow pump

over sized pan

billet servo

hardened chrome rings

new planetries, gasket, etc

full billet valve bodies,

TCI converter

These are what I can remember, it was built by Keas, and I am under the impression that yours even though it was not built by Keas will have some of his componetry in it

Ok - let me ask you this - are you using the re4r01a box?

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
