Objective was to make it look as stealth/clean as possible. Will probably end up going a stock route Blitz cooler down the road to make it look standard as possible.

Who woulda known there's a GT3076R lurking under there :)

f**k yeah! post more vids of it being driven and such!!

ok ok :P

Not tuned yet, only running 10psi but safely rich (dips to 11s and sometimes high 10s) and no ping ping. Doing a bit of a shakedown and sorting out a few issues (car has been off the road for 18 months) before I chuck it on the dyno and wind the boost up :devil:

Ah. just thought I would throw some pics up.

Only just running in , done 500kms so far so gud!

done what I believe is the absolute MINIMUM for a reliable build. + I threw in some old engine building skills cause I have got alot of spare time.

Brand new 25 oil pump

crank collar

Blueprinted complete bottom end.

Removed all casting flashes in block, crank, rods,

Polished, streamlined crank and rods

Balanced complete rotating assembly

New cast pistons (standard pistons so 8.3:1 comp)

oil restrictors 1.5MM(both)

opened up oil returns

got a good set of rings on my 3rd box , NPC rings were too tight, Hastings rings were all consistently 10 though too large, found the happy medium with acl rings.

Nissan bearings

mls head gasket

arp head stud kit + rod bolts

std cams + mild port job to head.

Remove casting flashes, imperfections, port matched to both inlet and exhaust manifold.

CC combustion chambers

Internal vct mod

Helicoiled every single thread on the exhaust side.

6boost, , plazmaman, 3076R.82Rear ext gate and 3.5inch turbo back.

only at run in stages, big difference in torque between this and the standard 25 that I had in place.

can't wait to get it tuned!!!!

having had my pod where yours is before, you will notice an improvement in power if you get it away from there and into the corner where it can get non radiator/exhaust manifold heated air.

Ive gone from having the pod in the corner to having it smack bang on the turbo.

Maybe because its winter(/end) but I haven't really noticed any difference bar the throttle response.

didn't change my mph down the 1/4 and sounds/looks alot better.

having said that, I will probably do back to back on the dyno and post them up

    • I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.
