I thought you could make 40 or 50 extra kw with the proS? Nice choice, what did it cost you?

I bought the kit with a damaged turbine so all up it cost me $2300 after fitting a new CHRA but this is also including the dump, intake etc. There were a few niggling things missing like M10 14mm hex nuts with the correct height and correct material and a bit of buggerising around.

Obviously is the same size comp wheel in a different trim so there is some hp in that plus the larger turbine (56mm vs 53mm) should allow it to breath better so I would expect around 30kw extra on the same dyno but hopefully a whisker more everywhere. We will see how it feels on the fat car. Ms Wolv will be annoyed if she doesn't like it as much, so I have plenty riding on how it drives after.

Roof rail replacement kit finally arrived today: WUHOO!!! It's only taken 2 years to get this sorted! Also, Bilstein re-valve kit arrived a couple of days ago: Just need to collect my new daily driver (Hopefully next week), so I can get the Stag sorted...

Where did you get the roof rail replacement kit from, looking to get one for my stag ?

pulled off my split dump pipe and turned it into a bellmouth, i was starting to get a lot of spikes since turning up the boost. also fitted a Gizzmo MS-IBC last weekend to replace the Jaycar unit.

resprayed my roof rails on the weekend.

used a product called 'bumper black' which i have had a lot of success with before. it is a black paint that has an inbuilt primer in it, and goes on with a textured finish very similar to powder coating. it is fantastic because it dries fast, and because of the textured finish,it hides imperfections very easily. it is also extremely durable. i'd highly reccommend it for anyone who's rails are looking a bit faded or mottly. i'll be doing my wiper arms with it this weekend.

EDIT: quick tip, if you do this, make sure you mask off EVERY part of the car that you don't want this stuff on. it gets airborn and travels for metres and metres. my garage floor was covered in a powdery residue afterwards. i went to mitre10 and bought a few plastic drop sheets from the paint section, cost about 2 bucks each. tape those down with masking tape and dont leave any room for error because this stuff will find it's way in! it was esp important for me as i have a white car.

Pick or ban. Did you do it with the rails on the car?

yep with rails on the car. probably should have made it clear, but the drop sheets were to cover the car, not the garage floor!

can try get pics but proably not going to show all that clearly.

      Anyone running the VQ37VHR with forced induction?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Wrong question. There's no point in spending the rather large sum of cash and effort to add turbo, without taking it to the "sensible" limit of the motor itself. If you have to upgrade injectors, etc, then so be it. That is a tiny fraction of what it will cost you to turbo it.

      Starter motor replacment teeth count.

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Measure voltage at the starter solenoid terminal when the key is at start and it has clicked. If it is really low, then the suspicion falls on the ignition switch (contacts or wiring thereof) as causing a voltage drop instead of sending enough volts to throw the solenoid all the way to engage the starter itself. If it is a decent voltage, then the suspicion is on the solenoid. Might have s horted coil, or might hva dirty contacts. Rip the starter off, dismantle, clean up contacts and inspect winding. It might not be possible to see if there is a short in the winding though. I have a spare starter here that I could measure the resistance of the coil, as a guide to about what it should be, if you need a comparison. <parts hoarder>No you cannot have it.</parts hoarder>

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Absolutely matters because, while a temperature change will eventually reach a sensor at the end of a static line, the response time is far far far too slow to be useful. Might as well not have a temp gauge at all.

      Anyone running the VQ37VHR with forced induction?

      By f00stx · Posted

      When I was eyeing off the 370GT (after deciding I didn't want to spend 30-40k+ to relive my early 20s in an R33) I thought it'd be a good project to add a turbo to it. Now that I have a 370GT, and I've had a couple of chances to open it up, I'm pretty stunned by how much power it makes 🫠 Honestly, the way the VVEL opens it up, it almost feels like there's a little turbo tucked away in there somewhere. It's like Nissan looked at VTEC and said "hold my beer" 😁 Has anyone thrown a turbo into their 370Z or 370GT? Is there a conservative boost level you can run without having to upgrade the fuel system, or are bigger injectors and a bigger pump a given?
