Picture I took this morning with all the covers on. Still need to order a new radiator shroud though.

Also one of those radiator deflector thingos to cover up the horns and A/C fan etc :)

Stop being a lazy fkr and come pick it up :)

Yeah, ill get there!. Time has not been on my side! Grr.

Question for you Nick. Where is your GT PRO set to? Mines at Medium and it's one aggressive mofo. I may need to back it off a tad.

I need to find an ARC one. Not a fan of homo carbon crap.

I was trying to get an ARC one originally but come across my Alloy one on Ebay randomly! Was already sprayed black too :woot:

Black... The new... Shiney? Lol

I remember when first speaking to Alex @ Plazmaman about 3 years ago and i was ordering the stealth kit and he said that Black was to be the new Chrome :P Its Black Bling!

Id have to check with the boys that installed it, im not too sure

Not when you are talking about the cosmetic stock looking finish! When you pop the bonnet and look down it look a bit average without it! He has gone so far with the presentation it might as well be finished off properly ;)

question, how does the air get to the air box intake if you block the airs path from the grill with the radiator guide ?

You can see the big gap in mine so it would still flow plenty of air... Although I haven't worked out a snorkel setup for mine as I wasn't clever enough to use a stock airbox :(

Oh yeah, scrap that idea!

Im sure brad at profab would be able to fab one up out of sheet ally and in corporate a funnel to the air intake from the front grill.

Then just paint it or powder coat it the new shiney lol.

:yes:

Mine had a shield/guide but it also had a 100mm hole in the guard with some NACA duct tubbing from under the air filter shield to the front grill, plus there is a heap of air voids around the front headlight to allow air to flow inside the air box if it has a opening on the front side behind the headlights.

No good for the ARC box I believe though, but good for a enclosed pod set up.

LOL, just saying.

Rightio. SO after 2 days of 11ty strings around and under the car, deflection gauges, tape measures, more strings, more measuring and even MORE STRINGS, I have a piece of paper with words and graphs. 7 pages of graphs and jargon that I hardly know what it meant.

From what I CAN gather from it. I will need to purchase a roll centre adjuster setup for the front. the HICAS lockout bar needs to be moved up 10ish mm to help eliminate bump steer in the rear. (Design fault possibly). The shocks will be Bilstien with a PSS9 body - That's where the similarity will end. From then on its all Dejan's specs. His valving, gas, spring and oil combo. People may laugh, but the spring rate in these will be about 20 KG/mm BUT it will be very pleasant on the street. They will be height adjustable and damper adjustable.

A little bit of testing and these will be available for R33 GTR's as a bolt in kit.

    • Well it wasn't as easy as I thought.... and it also wasn't in my original manual which I did end up finding. They discuss the process in the Nismo catalogue though and it requires slight machining. Page 145.  NISMO PARTS CATALOGUE 2020
    • I'm an idiot, my intercooler is rated for 1000hp. I had clicked on the wrong product. Knowing the delta P would be nice, but I'm doubtful I'll do it. Now as for an EMAP, that would be great and I'll get around to it eventually but from my findings in my last post, I'm considering a turbo swap now. 
    • You sir, big win tonight. Precision never supplied compressor maps in the past and Idk when they started, but it seems they only offer for a few of the older gen2's which is exactly what I have. I punched in some numbers and seem to have gone with the wrong turbo. 600-700whp isn't in the most efficient area and is close to the choke line. 800whp is well off the map. Punching the numbers into a 68mm gen2 turbo map is bang on in the center. Here I was thinking going smaller would shift the power band down, but in reality it would just make it so much worst due to my rev limit. I would have never thought. 
    • Increasing overlap will bring the torque down earlier (and make your idle sound sick lol). Worth a shot (if you dyno time) to experience a bit (providing you are confident your valves won't kiss your pistons). Is to just take off 5 degrees across the boosted area of the map, and then retard the exhaust cam let's say, 3 degrees at a time and then overlay all the runs with VCT on all the way and VCT off as soon as you make positive pressure. Ideally you would have a total of 6x overlays to looks at 0 exhaust & VCT off once manifold pressure is +ve 0 exhaust & VCT on all the way -5 exhaust & VCT off once manifold pressure is +ve -5 exhaust & VCT on all the way -10 exhaust & VCT off once manifold pressure is +ve -10 exhaust & VCT on all the way Just leave your O2 wideband closed loop on for all of the boost area & RPM, and hopefully there isn't too much fuel correction needed and the Haltech is fast enough to compensate (I do this, then apply the correction to the main table). Getting that overlay data should give you a good indication of what to aim for.
    • So, my main limitation here is that the car does not have an oil pressure sensor by default, just a switch. As part of my tune I bought an oil pressure sensor upgrade so I now have access to oil pressure levels and logging rather than just the boolean behaviour of the switch but this means I need to use the tuning app to display this value. So, this rules out using any other app on the iPad. The app will also flash when pressure drops which is a nice feature. I have replaced the centre screen with an Android one, which is awesome for Android Auto, but I think it might be too far away and out of my line of sight. I might add some gauges to it this weekend and just see. I guess if its just temp and oil pressure I can make them massive! 🤣
