yeay! :)

picked him up from ESP today and am fairly happy, still got a few issues to sort but thats cars.

194.8@5psi

224@9psi

for some reason the clutch was slipping andit had a boost leak which resulted in the cooler pipes blowing off a couple of times and next time Glen said he will spank me if bring tyres that have been sitting in the sun for 10 years...

Very happy with ESP (even though they hate my 31 now) i cant recommend them enough.

now will someone book a track day for me.

You forgot to mention the mountain of torque that it makes James... Thats why the clutch was slipping.

My guess for the final figure (when all the bugs are ironed out) is:

253rwkw @ 14.4psi (1 Bar).

700nm torque

P.S. It sounds like a chainsaw on steroids! :P

To quote Miranda in that video - "hehe that's cool".

It looks hardcore when it's rolling (must be the sick black on yellow paint job) :worship:

P.S. It sounds like its going to need a large muffler before it goes out to the hillclimb or they'll kick you off for being too loud :(

Quick question ... who built your RB30DE setup ?

im looking to build an RB30DE (non turbo) in future and was after a bit of knowlege on the build as I would like to build the motor myself but need to know about the machining of the block and head etc...

      Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.

      R32 GT-R: 4WD Light Turns On After Bumps – Code 19 (ETS Motor) But No Issues Found

      By Duncan · Posted

      Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed

      By Kapr · Posted

      Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
