Well very excited to have had the GTR on the dyno last night for the first time since I bought it!

Big thanks to Lindo and Junior for the new turbos & countless hours of work, Jeff at Speed Lab for the tune, and Michael & Turbo Tune for letting us use their dyno til ridiculous hours!

It is now making 307kW at ALL FOURS on only 16 PSI!

Car feels great, smoother & much more responsive! It absolutely freight trains!

:)

It's had a lot done to it mechanically -

Built Engine

Big sump

Forged Pistons

Rods

HKS 272 Cams

720cc injectors

Power FC D Jetro

Exedy Twin Plate Clutch

Oil cooler

Turbosmart E-Boost boost controller

Trial full exhaust

New turbos are Garrett -7s :)

over 300kw @ all 4 wheels with -7's @ 16psi is def a great achievement Bec.....you gotta be happy with that.

Me thinks it would be a bit of a response monster with the -7's putting out that much.

Reminds me of Andrew Blue32's car (although he's making 400kw).......he's only running 8cm journal turbos.....makes the thing come alive very early.

Sounds like yours would be very streetable

Yes it feels much more responsive now! I haven't had a proper drive yet but hopefully will tonight!

Very happy with it... Sooooo don't want to sell it now! :) Boo!

I told Jeff to keep it real safe when he tuned it, so no doubt we could have pumped more boost into it thus achieved more power, but (yeah yeah call me a girl), I didn't really see it as necessary on the street, especially these days... It'd just be asking for trouble! Hehehe. I love how the car squats when it takes off with decent pace! *sigh*

Time for a upgrade of the suspension me thinks....after i upgraded mine there is no squatting and more hauling ahead

na Damo i has 2 engines 1 in the car still runs and 1 out the car wanting to sort something out before piling money into it will be the good part of another year i need a pizza round to earn more money :) im tempted i might start eating more pizza but

awesome, i'm jealous

mate of mine has a gtst running my old 3076 making some good numbers on E85, rear shocks are totally shagged and gets amazing traction, softer is always faster in a straight line!!

I got coilover running medium to soft....but still no squatting

its all to do with spring rates Krishy, you can set a hard set of coilovers to their "softest" setting, but it will still be 10x stiffer than standard spring/shock combo.

    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
