Nah ah. GTR's are twins. Period. Its all about looking "stock" *ah hem*.... for when the super doods in their crazy SS's pull you over and say 'pop your bonnet son" :whistling: .

You sound like my tuner.... He calls twins "Thomas the tank engines" becasue they choof! Its all about no no no to singles and yes yes yes to twins haha

Sounds like a smart man lol

The thing with the V cam (as much as I would LOVE to have it on my car....as would all of us) is with the big one for turbo's like T04Z's, GT RS's is that you need valve relief pistons. I dont have that and I am not pulling down a engine to fit them! Its interesting that the -5's hold boost longer then the 2530's.

Your car made 440rwkw off the top of my head? That enough to scare most people :)

Yeah it was finally tuned to send to Oz at just over 600 PS (440kw) with a 8 second hit of an extra .2 Bar on the scramble boost.

Got to get it on the road first then look at E85 as got a petrol station that stocks it here thats about 500 metres away.

I still have a spare RRR block that you could build a new engine

Thats awsome. Lets see what it makes on E85!

A few little questions while im thinking of them.

Are you still using the factory CAS or did HKS use some sort of crank trigger unit? I am getting CAS noise above 6000 RPM or so.

Are you still using the factory airbox? I can't remember.

As for the block.... I already have one in my car.... It would be greedy to have 2 :thumbsup: haha.

Off the top of my head I'm pretty sure they used the factory CAS although they basically rewired the entire ignition system and ran 3 separate earth leads to ground points throughout the car.

Factory airbox.... Nope its got pods and all HKS piping

What do you guys think of the Midori front pipes?

I'm getting the Midori dumps which these match up to, then through to 90mm, but no flex join which I am a little worried about.

There doesn't seem to be anything else on the market to the same specs.

I was thinking about the midori fronts.... but if your going to have a 4 inch exhaust you might be better off with a set from racepace (IE Tangomatt's car, page 3)

Ash. Do you know if they would make up a set and sell them by themselves. From what Steve has told me they do business a little different to most places. I couldnt even find a phone number!

yeah they are good, but considering their price I would get the HKS ones. they are beautiful, have a flex joint, merge to single 90mm pipe and are twin 70mm (or more, can check this weekend if you like).

the HKS ones are about the same price.

That would be great if you have them handy thanks Richard. I can't seem to find details on the HKS ones online that merge to 90mm - nobody lists the specs.

Obviously with the Midori dumps at 76.3mm / 3" I am trying to get them to match without reducing.

I believe these are the ones your talking about:

HKS P/N: 1418-RN005

http://www.justjap.com/store/product.php?productid=16972&cat=&page=1

http://www.nengun.com/hks/extension-kit-gtr

Yeah strange how noone lists the dimensions??

Nah they are the HKS dumps, it's the HKS front pipes that I am trying to confirm specs on - same deal nobody lists it.

Yeah I knew I had seen that somewhere - was just hoping that BB was referring to a different version as he mentioned there being 2 back in a previous post.

Sorry for the thread hijack guys, it is kinda related anyway - determining the biggest off the shelf front half exhaust.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
