I wonder if we can coax Kando Dynamic to get the GTR style cast's so we can see some epic T517Z and T618Z action on the GTR.

They have the cores on shelf already.

i went for a drive in a 400+kw r34 gtr with a hks 2.8ltr and gtrs (big track car build from japan, big brakes ect ) on it and i absolutly couldnt wait to get in it, id been in and driven a few cars including a track prepped 2.6ltr with 2530s but never such a wild build like this, altough the r34 pulled like a train once past around 5000rpm, in all honesty it wasnt really exciting at all, nowhere near as exciting as the track r33 with 360kw, i mean the r34 had to back off at about 180( on a private road of course) as he was running out of road but i guess it all depends on what your after, im sure on the track this 34 may have been a different story all together, but i personaly think that the gtrs turbos he was running were way to big for his application(2.8ltr and street car), let alone a 2.6ltr, i mean im not sure what your after but by the time the power is unleashed its going twice the speed limit,

im sure there would be proven setups on the gtrs on 2.6s out there, but im just goin by my own experiences ,

but if its a drag car or set up for big tracks then by all means, i cant remember if twoogle was a 2.6 or stroked, but that pulled a 9 so depends on your application i guess

twoogle was a 2.6ltr with gtrs's & that made over 550awkw.

you are right though, horses for courses & personal aspirations...my rb2630 with -10s pulled like a train but didnt have the same rush up top as my rb26 with gtrs's.

you are either a 2 stroke man or 4 stroke man, i like my 2 strokes :cheers:

yeah he sure did but they were not in factory position....

apexi RX6s are some cool high mount twins for a GTR too. there a lots of high mount options but -10s/GTRS are the biggest low mounts. the -10s with the big rear housings are for all purposes useless in twin form on a GTR even if it is a 3L.

Couldn't agree more. I have that setup on my car ATM and its a completely useless setup both on the street and on a track (like Wakefield).

RS's = bin, -5's = take their spot!

paul - that was a very nice launch, i should have recorded it off my blackberry!

sorry guys, off topic

U need to try bigger cams like 290's. Will premote earlier spool and more power with ur RS's

twoogle was a 2.6ltr with gtrs's & that made over 550awkw.

Gtrs making 550awkw 737awhp I'm sure that number keeps growing??

And I still don't understand why ppl think big cams don't work when it has been proven by workshops I know of...look at rips racings stealth r34 which is a torque monster and runs 290's!

Was proven on twoogle. Made 50kw more and around 1000rpm more response

Can you confirm it was on the same engine/head setup just different cams?? He had the GTRS's on his near stock engine aswell. From memory it was a complete new engine just the same GTRS turbo setup that gained the power and response.. I remember reading a classic post of his on GTRUK forum when someone was comparing garrett to his beloved HKS turbos he came in and said well go try making X amount of power on your GT4202 as i did on my $4000+T51R SPL forgetting he already told everyone his turbo had a GT45 wheel upgrade.. Apples to oranges...

^ LOL.

Yeah but do they run 10:1 AFRs?

    • Seat of the pants assessment of the new intake: The car is way less "doughy" when hitting the loud pedal, especially off idle when stopped or in traffic, I did use a cheapo lazer thermal thingo to measure the temp around where the pod filter got its air, it was between 55 - 60°C, in saying this the car was shut off and not moving, so the OEM intake pipe was not supplying any fresh air to where the pod was when the car was at least moving A weird bonus was induction noise on the throttle in the cabin increased a bit,  I was worried that I was actually going to lose some of that induction noise I love so much, outside though, when I got the daughter to do a WOT drive by pass for me, the induction noise has increased alot when on the throttle, not quite ITB doort, but well up there I'm extremely happy with the results and have been exploring the country roads in the region  As for house mods: 1.New front fence is up and is awesome, it really upgraded how the joint looks from the street, and the added security is nice 2. Electricians have replace some interior lights, and with more lighting in the garage, a few new motion detecting lights out the front above the garage, front room, and at the front door, which I have already found heaps helpful coming and going, also now has fancy pants CCTV all round the house The only hold point for power though is the solar and batteries due to supply issues, although this will happen over the next few weeks 3. I have done a heap of landscaping out the front and I'm almost ready to do a new small retaining wall with some nice blocks to replace the brick and cemented in rocks around the raised garden beds cemented in river stone "was the fashion at the time" the house was built. I currently have a pallet of retaining wall blocks and 2 bulka bags of 20mm blue metal to replace the wood chip that is in the raised garden beds around the house 4. I now have 3 big raised garden beds for out the back to grow some vegetables, about 70cm high, 200cm long and 100cm wide 5. My 2 compost bins are already pretty full with brown, green and kitchen waste from the landscaping I'vedone so far, but they will probably take a few months to break down, so anything else that gets chopped, trimmed, and kitchen waste will just start filling the base of the raised garden beds to about 30cm before I start throwing 40cm of good compost, and stuff, for the vegetables to grow in, I'll need a few ton of compost and soil, but the local supplier can sent me bulka bags of the stuff Basically the logs, wood chips and a few strategically placed rocks for drainage, will give the beds some good organic materials down low to break down over time, and they will hold moisture during the warmer months to save the water in my big arse water tank if we don't get alot of rain So, all in all, the car and house mods are going well, and I'm really enjoying being retired, I sleep in too 0700 and slowly plod around inside until I feel like actually doing anything, and only work in the yard for as long as want, which has actually been alot over the last few weeks,  although when you look at it, it seems that not a huge amount of work has been done,  until I look at the before I started the work pics Happy days and good times indeed 
    • hahaha yeah. Plan is to get side skirts and probably just rear pods. But going to do them one-by-one. I've got a set that I really like from RHDJapen, but that one isn't shipped to AU. So need to find someone who can get it for me
    • Here's an idea, answer the questions I asked you as they are trying to work out WHY the LSD will be binding up in a straight line.
    • You haven't driven many modern cars then have you? Most of them have sfa steering feel with their stupid electric bullshit steering systems.
