Hey now, I distinctly remember knocking a 400+awkw GTR out of the battles with a sub 150rwkw Supra! Unsure who was driving but that at least has to be a mark of shame on the NSW wall.

That's funny I remember a NSW supra (stock auto) knocking out a VIC supra the time before last...

:D

The mark of "spew" at the dinner table will never be surpassed

In the end a supra which everyone calls a boat took out 2nd overall ahead of any other GTR...so "TEH GTR CAN LOSE"...if only occasionally...hehehe...

*Double flame suit on!!*

This thread needs more sh!t talking!!

All I know is I'm trying to work out how to get another liter and an extra turbo under the bonnet....

I'm thinking sub200kw just not enough to catch some of u guys..

LOL...I do have 3 litres but I only have 1 turbo martin...and its a pretty small one too...for a 2J...

I did some numbers the other day and if i didn't end up with a 1 x WD, and 2x 4WD helli sessions, my scorecard would've had a top 10 easy.

But fk that, 4WD helli's are much more entertaining, as is smoke pouring outta the air vents for 5mins afterwards.

I can't wait to go upto a mates "bogan" DECA as well call it where it's just blown V8's doing summernats style burnout displays... I'll show em what 4WD helli's are about :D

sounding like a true race driver there Ash.

- if i had AO50's

- if i had another 50rwkw

- if i had more experience

- if the sun was higher in the sky

- if the air pressure was higher

- if i hate eaten lamb instead of pork last night

lol ash, so if you didn't get lost you would have done better?

Not a chance that i "wouldnt' have gotten lost. I dont have the brain functionality to remember some of those maps LOL

I was destined for WD's and DNF's :D

Nah not true. Maybe on long wang but that's it. 200 is a good number that you could prob get with your setup and that's definitely enough.

I'm not to surprised about that to be honest, alot of the gtr's and evo's got beaten by 'lesser' cars. I was actually quicker on the skidpan then most of the 'better'' cars. Its not the car but more the driver that'll determine how good your times are, you could put the stig in a fwd diesel golf and he would still be quicker then all of us haha.

Over a 30-40 second run though there really isn't "that" much of an advantage for any car really.

Just comes down to going the right way, not hitting cones for the most part.

One cone can send you from top 5 to outside the top 10, same for a WD/DNF

Yeah the LW is def noticable.

and I cannot believe the difference suspension set-up made since the last outing..(roughly the same HP as then)

But I recon 220-230 in something like mine would be about perfect. maybe cut a little weight out as well..(that's from me not the car..)

Plus a diff that locked properly would be nice as well..

that said the car is def faster then me I just have to learn to drive it to it's limits!

    • Yeah pretty impressive hey, good to see quality products not over-shooting their prices. That's what drew me to buy the hypergear turbo, just a shame I've never got the chance to see it in action
    • Thank you GTSBoy and MBS206 I have done the compression test with the motor out of the vehicle, reason for the test was to see if I needed to remove the head and do rings etc while its out. I'm in the process of respraying the vehicle and tidying up a few things. Story behind it all is I've just purchased the skyline and it was running when I got it, never drove it on the street though as I wanted to pull it down and do it all up again before registering it. the gentleman I purchased it from told me the motor has a forged bottom end and has a decent tune through it but I was going to pull the sump off anyway to see if it is a forged bottom end. that's why I thought id do a compression test beforehand. 
    • Man, I'm kind of amazed that the price of the turbo has not changed in 7 years. Everything else is inflating beyond reason, but not this? Good on Tao / hypergear I guess? Anyways, good luck with the sale!
    • I'm selling my brand new, in the box, never used Hypergear ATR45 - and I had some additions I paid for a few yrs back when I purchased it. Never ended up having the rest of the money to add all the mods at once, so I just ended up slowly selling each part. I originally had it internally gated, with the dump pipe, however I found it was incompatible with what I was going to use it for, so I contacted (I think Ken) from Hypergear, and he and I messaged back and forth & he got me to ship the turbo back, where they modified it & made it externally gated, and gave me the 5 bolt dump pipe attachment for custom welding. (Photos below) This turbo like I said has never touched the inside of an engine bay, it's completely brand new, never used, been sitting in the same box it arrived in, covered in plastic & all. Below are the photos of it: And while the guys at Hypergear were making it in-shop, they sent me some photos of the process: I'm looking at selling this just because I'm in need of the money right now, and don't have plans on modifying the 34 anytime soon - and from reviews & peformance sheets, this turbo had amazing results back when I was researching. The turbo was purchased in 2018 for $1.9k, with the mods I got added on. Looking at the website now, for the same turbo they sell (ATR45SAT), with the current addons it adds up to $1830 for the turbo Current addons included: - Bolted dump adaptor - Ball bearing CHRA - Braided oil feeding line So I'm looking to possibly sell it for around $1800, with shipping included in that 1.8k, It cost me around $120 to ship - so yeah thought I'd throw it out there and see if anyone was interested in purchasing. Cheers!
