all stock, raise the boost on the 32s rb26 and it should be a different story. cant do much with na =(

Oh buddy, theres pleanty you can do!

VQ35HR, 6 throttles with tuned length intake runners, decent mandrel bent headers, high flow exhaust, aftermarket ecu with VVT control. = 360 - 380Hp depending on quality of execution? :)

I was actually hoping that the v35 will do better. Again the brakes seems to be fading after 3 laps just like in another clip where the v35 went against some rx8s and 350z.

Yup!... That's why I love this clip.

Unfortunately the cost to power gains ratio is far higher than FI

if u had alot of $$$ that is. the amount spent on making an NA to 360-380hp, would be better spent to FI the car. :P

and also from what i meant was...without spending a single dollar *maybe just a manual controller* you raise the boost of the 32 it will beat the v35 with ease. with the NA you cant do much...well nothing at all really if you werent going to spend any $ on it.

What Clip?? I wanna see... post it. I always love watching our cars do battle. There isn't enough of it.

Yeah you got a point mate but seriously, you're comparing Turbo VS NA... Of course a few tweeks here & there will turn the tables for the R32...

My point was that (despite the massive head start lol) a heavy stock NA-Rear-Wheel Drive 350GT was able to beat a lighter stock 4-wheel-drive R32 GTR V spec lap for lap... which deserves a thumbs up. :P True?

If any of you guys have any more Hot Version or Best Motoring clips of our 350GTs can you point me to them... Thanks.

Yes you can get more gains from a turbo motor by just winding up the boost BUT a well tuned NA is so different and sounds so awesome!

You can't go past the sound of individual throttles at full noise and the lumpy idle with a set of high duration cams is just too nice. I also think that completing the mods that I mentioned earlier would be on a par if not cheaper than a turbo / supercharger kit.

If the track was empty I think the R32 would have done a faster lap time than the V35. He was simply stuck behind him a few times.

Tyres, drivers, condition of vehicle, etc would also play a part. The R32 is 15 years older.

In any case, slightly disappointing result for the V35. Stock vs stock vs stock i thought it would be at least a little bit closer to the other cars.

Gotta agree with Brad as I was kinda disappointed as well seeing the v35 so far behind the imprezza and lancer..... was hoping to be much closer although those are 4WD cars.

Yeah, and the TS version is like $6k, seriously why bother?

Exactly. 6k is the US price just for parts. Add the rest as well as tune and supporting parts and you've gotta be nuts to build an NA V35. Or etremely rich and don't mind losing money.

i understand where you're coming bud, nothing better then pure NA sound. but like i said what i meant was *without spending any money* all that the 32 has got to do is the boost up. na no...

individual throttles....mmmmmm :thumbsup:

    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
    • I wanted to try and preserve the front bumper as long as possible, they're not cheap and are made to order in Japan. Taking inspiration from my previous K11 Micra build where I made an undertray for the Impul bumper, I did the same for this BN Sports bumper but a little slimmed down.  This time round I only made a 'skid plate' (if that's the correct wording/term) for just the bumper surface area, the Micra version covered the gap like an undertray. Starting off with a sheet of mild steel approx. 0.9mm thick 4ft x 2ft in size. I traced around the bumper, cut it out and cleaned the edges. Luckily I was able to get two halves from one piece of metal In the video I installed it as is, but I've since then I've removed it to spray and add a rubber edging trim. The rubber trim is suitable for 1-2mm and it's a really nice tight fit. The bolts had to be loosened due to the plates being too tight against the bumper, the trim wouldn't push on I used some stainless M6 flat headed bolts for a flusher finish (rather than hex heads poking down), I believe this style fastener is used for furniture too incase you struggle to source some. The corner's are a little wider, but this may be an advantage incase I get close to bumping it  The front grill got some attention, finally getting round to repairing it. Upon removal one fixing pulled itself out of the plastic frame, one side is M8 that fixes inside of the frame, where as the other side is M5. Not knowing I could get replacements, I cut down an M8 bolt, threaded it inside the frame along with a decent amount of JB Weld.  The mesh was replaced to match the bumper. One hole on the bonnet/hood had to be drilled out to 8mm to accommodate the new stud, once the glue had set it could be refitted. I think the reason the grill was double meshed was to hide the horn/bonnet latch (which makes sense) but I much prefer it matching the bumper Bumper refitted and it's looking much better IMO The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVZP35io9MA
