Roll cage in, a functional piece tied to the chassis rather than a bolt in style

All of the trim goes back into place with the cage being quite well hidden inside the structure of the car

Interior trim now complete again its time for the engine to come out for upgrades :)

Let us know if there are any interior parts you're wanting to let go of. I'm particularily after the 2012 carbon covered HVAC radio panel, and carbon covered CD slot panel :)

Martin interested to see final hp figures - are you adding the TT or TTR turbo mod?

Edited by domino_z

Yep yep, done it already, as well as the shifter surround.

I really want the knobs though. They're so much better than the 08-10's black bland ones...

I agree, but at what cost, definitely not the $900 odd for the spare part cost

I paid a little over 1k for this replacement steering wheel - much better value for money vs tactility than some ac knobs

The RSW carbon is very good, installed the tweeter trim too to flow with my dry cf mirrors http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v21/scascone/R35_GTR/IMG_4871.jpg

rapid progress Martin

i see you retained the oem actuators, isnt this going to now limit how much boost you can get out of the modified turbos at high rpm? will you need to scale back boost towards redline just as with a full bolt-on stock turbo car?

Potential bottleneck, or just good practice to save the motor?

I think the answer you guys seek is here -

The anti-lag and launch control with the Syvecs ECU is breathtaking! :)

The GTR is finished. Looks great with black rims, black paint, Velo carbon race seat, black harness etc. Very mean the WR600 Club Spec, and likes throwing a good half metre long flame on down full power shifts!

Martin that's not on e85 is it?

doing a quick comparo with my last dyno (full bolt on e85 stock turbo) I seem to be making more power at any rpm below 5500rpm

Eg @ 4000rpm I'm making ~425hp vs your dyno of ~385hp

unless I'm missing something? What happens to the power curve bw 6000 and 7000 cut out, I see boost is dropping off

Actually speaking of torque we decided to take the GTR out and test it at the track yesterday to dial in the Syvecs shifting etc and ran 10.3 @ 136mph while doing some mapping :)

That makes the WR600 Club Spec the fastest GTR in Oz down the 1/4, and thats without actually trying to get the title or actually setting up for it to go 400m racing (old Toyo tyres that were laying around etc)

Domino its the manual rpm scaling I have used between the two runs which has skewed the rpm readings on both graphs. Look at road speed instead for a true comparison.

Ok back to it

Here is the WR600 going through scrutineering with some of the old iron :)

and back at the workshop today installing the WR35WS Brake Water Spray system for the circuit meeting this weekend.

Interesting fact when WR600 lined up for the 10.3 run it just registered 200km in total on the odometer :)

    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
