All this talk of tyres is making my brain hurt

Just get a second set of rims with some Dunlop slics and problem solved

Nah it's all good, just going to get a good street set.. Will get 18s in the future if I decide to track etc...

yeah 595 ss, i want rsrs but 1000 bucks >.<

on another note,

i just drove a gtr, was big and yellow and im f**kin getting one next year!!

cant beleive the difference!! uts f**kin epic!!! keep a look out for a 33 gtr boys. low kms, many mods, 20k

will be buying feb/march next year when i got a steady job

Was it the twins or the AWD

For the money of a 33 GTR you could get a Stag. Twin turbo and AWD plus room for a baby seat for future use

everything man, race seats, you felt like you were sitting in a jet, the twins sound sick, the twin bovs sound sick, the exhaust, the fact that everyone was looking at it just driving down a back street. f**kin awesome.

yeah but stags are f**kin gay hahaha.

Might need to buy a yellow 33r to get the 'deer in the head lights' look from everyone haha

Just have cash to rebuild 10K is a good firgure, i got stuck for a few weeks with mine when i blew it, lucky i "found" 10k. My rebuild will be done 1st week of next month costing around 9.2k, they had to order more parts then they thought as the head was FUBAR thanks to the 3rd and 5th bearing going for a swim through the engine.

Questionable 2nd hand r34 engine's...yes

Solid rebuilds....No

But good to hear it's coming along Adam. Unfortunatly build budgets never go to plan :unsure:

Edited by wedge_r34gtr

ah i see, so itll be stronger then stock now?

With Adam's build list, he definatly will be able to handle some more power pretty reliably.

But i was mainly refering to the knowledge that the engine was going to be in good shape once finsihed i.e.'solid'

    • Small update for the day... Turns out the intercooler and engine coolant hose kits are anything but complete....I probably should have counted better but it only really covers about half the coolant hoses in the car, it really just covers the visible stuff and pretends everything else doesn't exist (turbo water feed and returns and also heat exchanger lines through the 2 pumps and cooler) .In any case, I'm happier to have half reliable hoses than none, but a bit of a disappointment. Anyway...finger click (and 5 hours).....hoses in place, lots of spring clamps replaced with screw clamps, and engine coolant is on the pressure tester for the night.   Incidentally, upsized header tank is an Inifiniti factory option....not sure I'll ever do prod car racing in this but at least it is legal.
    • Just weld it onto the hot pipe. If you want it right after the turbo, put it right after the turbo. Or rip the comp cover off and drill and tap a hole into it.
    • hahaha glad I can rely on you two to go on a spiral at the drop of a problem! Some quick answers....the ducting is excellent top bottom and sides....everything that gets in goes through the coolers (noting the oil cooler redirects it out again, fair call if it is cooling 120o+) and the heat exchanger for the intercooler also has some scoops to pick up more than it's fair share too. I can't see going down the water spray track....no bueno for formal racing and a big risk for long rally days if you run out (plus I'm not clear if it is allowed there either yet).   Frankly, it must be possible to reliably put 400kw through a standard front end, the BMWs do it so I just need to work it out....I'm starting with reducing blockages in the way and adding some coolant capacity with a bigger header tank, flushing rad and making sure it was filled/bled properly (I didn't do the last coolant change); also taken measurements incase next step is a bigger/higher capacity custom radiator
    • wow, a completely stock GTR! I've got to admit, I have no idea from what you are describing....do you have  any idea where the "thump" comes from, and are you certain it is the HICAS light not something else like the cat overheat light?
    • nice work, welcome to the world of CAD! fabricating accurately in 3 dimensional space is beyond me....I almost always end up making something more than once...sorry I mean I extensively use prototyping
