how does one put so much effort and money (and sponsorship) into such a car for so long... then sell.

...I guess cause someone else was driving/winning.

they had developed as far as they thought they could take it, starting a new project to go even faster now

it will be expensive. and EPA is a scary scary organisation.

but do it anyway. it'll be awesome. NA+Ts have moar low down torque due to the higher compression. Though, budget your conversion for turbo brakes, and stuff.

I was meaning more along the lines of acquire new engine, put in new engine. Not sure if the GT-Four comes with bigger breaks like the GT-V does. Information like that is hard to find.

Pretty sure it's been done before, and there'd be certain perks in doing so.

But also consider that it's most likely cheaper and easier to sell it and buy a GTT after your four years is up.

Moreover, consider the fact you may not want a skylineand post-Ps. My mate has a 34 GTFOUR, and I'm pretty sure for a long while he was considering N.A.+T. Has the AWD as well, so.

It's actually for sale at the moment as he's just got off his p's, if you want I can find deets for you (you could ask him deets about the brakes etc at least, I forget how much he's wanting for it).

But, I digress. He's on the hunt for an STi now. Which was my point about four years being a long time ; and that things change.

    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm. 
    • Wouldn’t touch par if they gave it to me. You need to ask how much power you’re looking to make and then add about 50% to it because that’s what you’ll end up making  The factory box says no more at about 350kw or so, the upgraded synchro boxes won’t handle much over 500kw for long and at that point you’re looking at an auto or dog engagement manual,  once you’ve gone dog engagement you may as well go sequential, they cost a little bit more but it’s worth it  also while you’re at it you should upgrade the transfer case with 10 friction plates
