Yeah, pretty much know what I'm aiming for parts wise thanks guys. The bigger question is what's in it already? So much "stock" stuff that's modified, that I may not need injectors/turbo etc because they might already be in there. For all I know, at the moment I'm only being limited by my AFM and tune! (one can dream anyway)

3" inch front/dump is on the list though to bring the whole exhaust up to size

full 3" will be hot

and yeh you're right, your ecu could already be ROMed from jap for 1bar/fmic/zorst or similar

keen to see what it makes :P

Trouble with thast is it is probably also tuned to run on 101 octane or higher, not the shite they serve us up here.

Just wait for some dyno day and jump in for a power run. Only cost like 50bucks for them instead of hiring a dyno (setup + run just for 1 car would be close to 1hr I would imagine, around 150/hr for 4wd dyno). And since 32 is just a fuse away from awd to rwd, I wouldnt be paying extra for awd at all.

Checking the turbo might be hard depending on how accessible they are but injectors should be easy. You can normally tell by the colour of them and jump on Nengun to check what size they are.

Andy: that 10kW is pretty subjective because temperature plays a bit part in dyno and every car is different (not really comparing apples with apples). Unless you got 2 dynos side by side and do the same car on the same day, the claim of gtr's awd power is higher than rwd mode power is quite hard to answer (due to attessa system).

Just for everyone's information, my car was tuned at Gavin Woods' using 4WD dyno and had 340awhp (end of august). But during the dyno day at EFI which was 2wd dyno, it only managed 330rwhp (21st november).

I was talking about back to back runs on the same dyno with awd engaged vs disengaged, a friend of mine did it in Sydney and results were 10 to 15kw higher for rwd, which makes perfect sense as the AWD would rob some power.

depending where you go if you go toa place with dynopacks with the hubs it might be slightly more cause they have to take your wheels off but like sme places e.g. 999 i know that they have the dynodynamic (or what ever you call it) they have the rollers for all four wheels and i dont see how i would cost heaps more to just extend their ramps like 30cm or what ever so that your front wheels will sit on the rollers, its designed for that.

But im pretty sure power runs at 999 around 50-80 still even if its not a dyno day. but if you really want to find out why dot you just call them upand see how much a power run will cost ya.

Ok thats the first I've heard of and now I believe you. =P

I know it make sense but I've never actually know anyone that's done that before (running same car on same dyno on awd and rwd mode). Now you make me wonder how does the other awd car fair on the same test since they're dont have the same awd system (e.g. evo, wrx etc). But then again, loss gonna be different for all anyway so no point in trying to dig the facts out.

im not 100% sure how all the awd systems works but the gearbox to the front drive shaft would still be attached to the front diff and still be turning it wouldnt it? just because you take out a fuse does it mean that the front diff disconnects or something?? to get a true reading of power at the rears wouldnt you need to take out the drive shaft to the front??

Only the R33 and the R34 have a preload to the front in a r32 you can just pull the fuse and run true rwd with out hurting the Attessa clutch packs.

me too, because it's been running 12psi this whole time and we never knew. Now it's set up for 12/14 on the MBC. 14 seemed safe as we don't know what the turbo is.

Stop being a slack ass jew and take the heat shield off the f**ker!!!

    • Yeah pretty impressive hey, good to see quality products not over-shooting their prices. That's what drew me to buy the hypergear turbo, just a shame I've never got the chance to see it in action
    • Thank you GTSBoy and MBS206 I have done the compression test with the motor out of the vehicle, reason for the test was to see if I needed to remove the head and do rings etc while its out. I'm in the process of respraying the vehicle and tidying up a few things. Story behind it all is I've just purchased the skyline and it was running when I got it, never drove it on the street though as I wanted to pull it down and do it all up again before registering it. the gentleman I purchased it from told me the motor has a forged bottom end and has a decent tune through it but I was going to pull the sump off anyway to see if it is a forged bottom end. that's why I thought id do a compression test beforehand. 
    • Man, I'm kind of amazed that the price of the turbo has not changed in 7 years. Everything else is inflating beyond reason, but not this? Good on Tao / hypergear I guess? Anyways, good luck with the sale!
    • I'm selling my brand new, in the box, never used Hypergear ATR45 - and I had some additions I paid for a few yrs back when I purchased it. Never ended up having the rest of the money to add all the mods at once, so I just ended up slowly selling each part. I originally had it internally gated, with the dump pipe, however I found it was incompatible with what I was going to use it for, so I contacted (I think Ken) from Hypergear, and he and I messaged back and forth & he got me to ship the turbo back, where they modified it & made it externally gated, and gave me the 5 bolt dump pipe attachment for custom welding. (Photos below) This turbo like I said has never touched the inside of an engine bay, it's completely brand new, never used, been sitting in the same box it arrived in, covered in plastic & all. Below are the photos of it: And while the guys at Hypergear were making it in-shop, they sent me some photos of the process: I'm looking at selling this just because I'm in need of the money right now, and don't have plans on modifying the 34 anytime soon - and from reviews & peformance sheets, this turbo had amazing results back when I was researching. The turbo was purchased in 2018 for $1.9k, with the mods I got added on. Looking at the website now, for the same turbo they sell (ATR45SAT), with the current addons it adds up to $1830 for the turbo Current addons included: - Bolted dump adaptor - Ball bearing CHRA - Braided oil feeding line So I'm looking to possibly sell it for around $1800, with shipping included in that 1.8k, It cost me around $120 to ship - so yeah thought I'd throw it out there and see if anyone was interested in purchasing. Cheers!
