what have you got in the pipeline now the vet is for sale PJ? something bigger?

I thought about a turbo V8, but realistically it would throw the handling out and I want to do some track days so going to stick with what I know, if it sells.

I was looking on the precision site and was wondering if anyone has managed to install 2 lowmount billet turbos into a gtr? Would be an interesting step from the good ol' garrett -7, 9 and 5s.

The gtx versions look great too as low mounts but precisions great results seen so far would be very interesting to see.

What turbos? it's all good to low mount them but it means custom intake and exhaust sides. Mega effort!!!

the main issue is picking the right ones to low mount, so all that mega effort doesnt get wasted : D

Looking at the 4828 400hp unit, not sure if it would fit and im sure it would require alot of work but there are always some crazy builds where someone wants to do something different.

Just looking at the gtx2860 thread and the r34 gtr build; having to buy a set of -5 turbs to modify and welding the snout and outlet. Hopefully there will be some bolt-on options for these turbines if there is enough demand.

These precision units are sooooo tempting for me; the 6262 was on my mind but i settled on the -9s because of the stock look.

Im very impressed with the powertune r34 gtr and the drag s13 silvia from motive dvd....amazing!!!

I don't know if it interests you, but I've spoken to hypertune about a low mount twin gate manifold. It's little in your face than a high mount and will make plumbing the gates in easier.

wow, would be similar to the manifolds used by twoogle right? great for people who wish to make big power using twins; would say it was kinda a lost cause considering how simple it is to buy a 6bob manifold and that the gt-rs/-10 turbos arent the best in many peoples opinions.

this is why im interested in these new range of turbos like the gtx28, precisions billets and perhaps borg warner units in development.

for myself, im sticking with the stock rb26 manifolds but in the future when I do a rebuild, i would want these options

cheers mate

Paul's low mounts, he used standard ported manifolds with his 2530's/RS setup?

I have a 6466 on an rb28, and i expect in excess of 500awkw. Might be a little bit too extreme on a daily strees sil. Buut, look at PJ's THING, because thats what it is, a freakish THING. It has a monster and still makes powers that are usuable for speeding up the rotation of the earth arouns the axis of the suns, and stuff

i love this post.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
