wow! looks like a gain of 50kw @ 4krpm!

must be happy & must be hanging to drive it

so with the gtrs's u were making 200kw @ 4krpm & now you are making ~340kw with -5s & latest setup :)

what is the difference in the run with the blue line v's the brown line (in the 1st graph) or is it just 2 runs where you were trying to diagnose the miss?

Yeah man.... We pumped more boost into it to see if it did it... which it did.

It'll be nice to have 350 at 4000 RPM. I'm sure with a bit of fiddling we will get there :D

Car is finally booked into Insight on the 19th of April for the ECU, fuel system and sensor wire in plus the tune. Thats the good news. The bad news is that V-cam aint gonna fit with my pistons and ho

Small update.... ITS RUNNING. Fired first go! Smells like burnt dust apparently .

A 9174 would just make the EGP pressure issue worse and in my mind it seems like a bit of a GT RS shit going on. Not that it's horrendously bad (It wouldn't be no twin buttplug pressures), That's NOT

i wonder how your numbers would compare to a larger capacity v8 (i.e. 6.2ltr, ls3) which makes the same peak power...would be interesting to see if your 2.8ltr makes more power & torque @ 4krpm

Im waiting on your final figures dammit ...so i can copy the specs ;)

You may want to get the more aggresive ones :P. Your turbos are slightly bigger also.... Bump up that comp ratio!!!!

I wonder that also. Considering a current "HSV" commo makes what, 325 KW at the flywheel at its peak? (Correct me if i'm wrong). I'm sure in the lower part of the rev range (1000 - 3000 RPM) the V8 would feel more grunty.... after that.... who knows.

Lets see if you can match my old typhoon of 1,000nm at the treads :) and i wouldn't worry about the hsv v8 I'd be trying to match/beat the new ford one! I havent driven one but all I keep getting told is that they are insane

They left it at 30psi, a good even number :)

Video doesn't do it justice. It is the cleanest 33 GTR I have ever seen. Everything about the car is immaculate, you could eat your dinner off the engine lol

      My BMW 335i

      I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'

      D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.

      KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.

      Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.

      Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
