I'm sure you'll get whatever you agreed on. I thought scotty might have kept the sump for the VQ35 conversion. Whats the plan, just put another stock back in, or toughen it up a little?

stocky with all my bit's.......TOW it down to VIC.....put it on a dyno and that's it! Then finish off the rest of the car!

New hi flow cat and 3" front pipe going on today to marry up to dump pipe and Legalis exhaust. No more compliance cat & stock pipe! :thumbsup: Powahhhh!

Good stuff Dale! In a couple of weeks you will not even remember how bad the stock lag was :)

What front pipe did you get??

I need to do front, cat and dump soon and then hit the drags again :D

Just purchased some 19" GTR LM4 nismo rims for lots of money. and a HDI kit from Hybrid Power international.

add tyres.. almost 5k on rims and an intercooler.

My mechanic is putting it together today, I'm picking it up tomorrow. Pics to follow.

Nice Rims mate, saw them on IM for a little while and was tempted, but couldn't part with the cash! Need picks for sure once their on.

As for the Mrs part- good luck there! :(

Haha my mate suggested i get 5 sets of different locking nuts and just having all different locking nuts on them.

Be left on bricks without them in the city ;)

just started from scratch with the gizzmo EBC. it was boost cutting like a dog on the freeway if i planted it in 4th. the gizzmo was display 1.03 which i stupidly assumed was 10psi or there abouts - given that it was untouched from when i picked it up from previous owner. i was just blaming the boost cut on spiking due to the cold weather. turns out it was reading in BAR and at 1.03 its actually closer to 15psi! no wonder it was throwing out fuel like a BP oil rig, and boost cutting. also not a good idea to run 15psi on stock wheel turbo as far as i'm aware?!

set the gains back to zero and wound the boost back to stock and went from there. now holding a steady 12psi and boosting so much more strongly to red line. i dont think the car was even getting into VCT before boost cutting before!! pretty happy! in defence of previous owner, it was probably setup for tune with the greddy emanage, but given that is unplugged for now i'm happy with my settings.

What settings did you arrive at, duty, gain and spike?

already have that.

Won the motor last night.....now I just have to get it here! Waiting game begins!

Can I borrow your turbo while its all out! I hear these things can seize up if they don't get frequent use :P

What settings did you arrive at, duty, gain and spike?

i would have to double check, but from memory the duty is at 40, gain i started at 0 and by testing doing 4th gear pulls and then quickly stabbing the throttle into 5th, it was hitting target boost of 12.4 with gain at 30, so i'll leave it there. spike, i have not touched.

if you need help setting one up i found a very helpful and straightforward thread. the actual manual from gizzmo is dribble. i read it 3 times cover to cover and still couldnt work it out!

car pulls a lot more cleanly now. probably not going any harder, but the fact that i can rev it out rather than have it cut at 5k is a plus!

    • Dredgggggeeee time; I have recently finally started driving the car. It sat for so long that the fuel tank gave birth to rust sludge and blocked my lift pump sock and one of my walbro 460's and left grime, rust chunks and muck all through the surge tank and system. I decided to commit and pull the trigger on an oem r32 gtr fuel tank and Frenchys twin 460 / sender / surge tank hanger combo and all new larger lines and fittings etc, also boost doc heater hose kit / new heater core and a heap of other bits and shits like wideband sensor installed in the dump and Syltech iacv + lines and all wired and added to current tune. now having lightly driven it a couple times without issue, I can happily report on the hta3076 in its current tune. still no boost control switched on, 20psi gate springs, car makes 22psi at 3200rpm in 6th gear with 30-50% TPS from cruise at 100kmh. Going by the old graph, this means it should be making 300-325whp at the same numbers above. Very very responsive setup under true road driving loads. all that's left for the build is body loom + PDM, finish the remote aircon setup, install carbon fibre parts and go for full tune and 30psi. the 315 rear tyres are now performing like they're 195's, wheel spin in any gear at almost any rpm, whereas my previous setup hooked up in 3rd no issue, albeit Nt01's back then / RB25 5spd vs (new) old date r888r's Z34 6spd now, + obviously all the support upgrades I listed in the quoted post above. car sits at 1-3psi on cruise at 100kmh, expectations totally exceeded and I'm beyond stoked with all this so far.

    • I've also been eyeing their rear axles for my car. I purchased seat mounts from them about 7 years ago and they were hot garbage so I've been a little wary about purchasing them. With that being said, please buy them and get back to us haha. 
    • Can a moderator please move this into the right category.. I've accidently put this into racing build thread 🤦🏽‍♂️
    • Being a manual, we very quickly ordered new R34 gearbox (From Nissan) and remaining parts from Kudos motorsports. Would highly recommend the team there. Ultra helpful and quick to share advice and upgrades. We are in the middle of taking the Auto out (Genuine 94,000/kms) and putting the Manual in this weekend. Part 2 of the build will include likely a Plazaman Intercooler and Plenium, Hks Exhaust with Tomei Dump (ordered).
