im shopping LED again........scandy set me the challenge, and i know the trailer needs a paint job so it might be time to do some more lighting :worship:

I knew it was either fenders or the lip my bad lol.

Luke how much is shipping for a 1500mm one? I'm looking for the fuji spec m I think it is

Anywhere from 150-200 depending on weight.

like Duncan said the code was there for pics but the failed at the uploading or permissions or something, the text doesn't mean as much without the pics but hey they might come online

Reader Luke Terbeeke sent us these photos he snapped of this rather impressive R35 GT-R. Heavily modified, this R35 has evolved into a carbon-clad circuit weapon, which Luke discovered circling Mallala Motor Sport Park in South Australia.

Luke advised that the owner of this stunning GT-R is Sebastian Lip, who entrusted R35 specialists Willall Racing to build the vehicle.

This particular R35 features a host of aftermarket components to improve the performance, handling and braking. Under the hood, the VR38 has upgraded Willall WR35TT turbochargers which feature larger compressor wheels. Engine management is via the popular Cobb system, with an HKS boost controller and knock sensor. The fuel system comprises of Willall twin pumps, a surge tank and DeatschWerks 950cc fuel injectors.

As the vehicle is used for circuit racing, Sebastian's R35 features a Willall Racing transmission cooler, front and rear diff coolers and AAM Competition oil cooler. These are further cooled down via their misting system, which sprays water onto the cores.

The R35's transmission has been beefed up with a 1st gear replacement from PPGearbox, with Willall fitting 14-plate composite clutch packs. The composite materials are said to increase torque transfer by 30%.

Several of the R35's panels have been swapped in favour of carbon alternatives. These include the hood, trunk lid and front fenders.

The GT-R's cornering abilities have been improved with Penske coilovers and Willall camber arms, while the brake calipers now clamp onto rather expensive carbon ceramic rotors. Interestingly, the R35 features further water cooling - this time for the brakes. Electronically-controlled jets automatically inject a spray of water into the centre of the rotor under hard use, apparently reducing temperatures by up to 200deg F

Quick question stock manifold ported or s/s after market better?

sr20 putting on a HKS gt-ss so not expecting any large numbers just response and mid range.

Definitely stick with the factory manifold, worth at least 300rpm in response (unless you are spending $1000 for a merge collector manifold), they will handle the heat better and won't crack like the SS one is guaranteed to do eventually.

Dude on NS wants to buy my gate, but only if he can pay via paypal. Apparently he can't use ordinary transfers or cash withdrawals...

Who the f**k survives these days if they can't freely shuffle their own money around freely. Sounds whack as f**k to me.

Am glad i bothered to get the engine mounts replaced with Nismo ones.

one of the engine mounts was busted, which explains why i could feel the engine and gearbox move under WOT.

Looking forward to picking the car up and hopefully it'll survive a while before having to get something else fixed!

Stainless manifolds - are junk

Greddy recently had to replace all their stainless R35 GTR TD06 manifolds with cast as nearly all of them failed with extreme cracking etc.

all the cheap and generic and even some of the jap ones fall into this category. but not all stainless mani's are junk. Mine's made from stainless steam pipe with 3mm wall thickness complete with merge collector and its strong as hell.

    • I saw you mention this earlier and it raised a red flag, but I couldn't believe it was real. Yes, the vacuum signal should vary. It is the one and only load signal from the engine to the ECU, and it MUST vary. It is either not connected or is badly f**ked up in some way.
    • @Haggerty you still haven't answered my question.  Many things you are saying do not make sense for someone who can tune, yet I would not expect someone who cannot tune to be playing with the things in the ECU that you are.  This process would be a lot quicker to figure out if we can remove user error from the equation. 
    • If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.
    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
