R34 Gtr Build

[Mick_o]

Really keen on seeing the results of this thing. Good luck hope it turns out as anticipated

[BOBBYr34]

After spending the past 4 hours reading through this thread, I have come to the conclusion on a few things:

1) I should probably get back to work

2) There is a lot of things that I still do not understand

3) I plan on building a 34 GTR myself, but I have much better ways to spend 3 years and god knows how much money on this kind of indepth project. Though, I admire the patience, skill, knowledge and workmanship that has been put into this magnificent machine. This is truly remarkable and will hopefully change the future of modifcation of RB engines, and cars in general - especially if this venturi manifold does spool that turbo in the way and at the engine speed that it should.

Just a couple of questions Bobby. I know you have probably done many more calculations than I have on the following question/comment concerning the air compressor to try make boost on idle.. We had a shop engine we were trying to do the same thing to, and we could only make a measly 5psi after having 3 lines of shop air tapped into the manifold pointing directly at the impeller - obviously we could only get such low compression because the impeller runs off volume rather than pressure. How do you manage to overcome this?

Also - 3 years is a long time to be working on this project, how did you stay motivated up to this point? I certainly would have lost interest and even reading the thread I skipped a few pages at the end haha.

You were involved in building one of my mates' r34, I think you named it goldfinger. I can see now why he chose your company to build his car because you obviously have the willingness to go the extra mile for your customers as shown in his car, and in this thread. +1 to you and to your team. If I ever have the money (haha not in my lifetime) to do something as dramatic as this, it will be a no brainer who to go to. Good luck with the rest of the build.

Thanks mate.

I will have to ask John in more detail on how he is going to set it up as i know using co2 works as it expands 500 times when it hits heat.

I have stayed positive as the fab work was amazing and i said to myself i just have to stick it out not more the time frame.

Khris car comes back tomorrow will post up some pics of the finished product.

Hey bobby,

Amazing car, really looking forward to the results. Can you tell me who trimmed your seats, they look amazing and much the same as the red ones in the white s tune r34 number plate is or was gripz

*thumbs up*

Sounds great.

Any power figures yet?

[Mick_o]

Enough teasing Bobby we need some numbers and some more video 10secs of that sweet noise aint enough

No power figures it's a run in tune no load no big rpm for now

What a f**kn beast. Like people say *UNREAL* following

everyone needs a sq box

awesome

[White GTS-T]

Pretty impressive for low boost and low revs.

[34GeeTeeTee]

Wouldnt expect any less from Bobby or from JEM for that matter

[SimonR32]

Finally, must be happy after such a long build just to hear it running...

Looking forward to results, looks like it comes on fairly hard just after 4000rpm. Love the sequential gearbox!

[TREGTR]

Nice

[Meathead]

Great effort you must be chuffed!

Regarding your M800, did retain the original ecu for anything minor or has it been removed completely?

I ask this as I have been running both for the last 6 years.

The workshop that fitted/tuned it said it still needed both at the time.

Fantastic car anyway and all the best with it.

Its full stand alone m800. Next year we will be installing the m150 again stand alone

[nick_7g]

Well done on everything thus far. Can't wait to see it in full stride! All in good time.

[mattye]

Sounds wicked. Can't wait to see it with proper tune!

Hello Bobby,

I am very interested to know what you did to make it stand alone.

I think my original was left to run Atessa with the TPS signal.

Realise this all costs money and am more than willing to pay for a wiring diagram and the additional MotecM800 setting.

All the best with the car

Mike
