Garrett 2860-5

Haltech Pro Ecu

1000cc Injectors dynamics

Carillo Forged Pistons

Titanium tomei valve springs

Complete blueprinting of motor ( whatever it's to be called )

machined , honed , balanced including crankshaft etc.

Excedy Twin Plate Clutch

125mm hyrbrid drag intercooler

Eboost 2

yet to decide on the fuel system and few other important things.

Some new Intakes on the way, AFM's.

-Strengthened box on it's way and alot of other things ( over night parts from japan :) ) - still love this comment

-Got to enhance the engine once completed, so anyone experienced or knows anyone who can add some colour, hide wiring's etc..just let me know. ( I don't mean just a simple coat of the rocker covers )

-Brand New limited edition bronze XXR 527 wheels put on a couple weeks ago. ( purchased from SAU Member Gerz- thanks!!)

-Slowly progressing to completion as i change my mind all the time :).

-Considering going single turbo if offers come my way from anyone selling. So that means i would get rid of my current setup if anyone would be interested.

-Any suggestions/comments or criticism bring my way.

Thanks mate,

Never really been a fan of these threads to be honest, but seems like most people here have good honest opinions and not the usual crap talk.

And if people do go off track, simply report it and we come in and fix :)

btw - more pics :D

Yeh that's sweet, I thought the ecu would have a function like that.

lol i agree about the pictures, Should of taken some snaps when the motor was back from machining.

it's nice feeling going through a new motor all nice a smooth

Definitely sticking with twin turbo's now,

Got some new turbosmart Dual port BOV's on the way.

  • 3 weeks later...

Twin 2860-5 Set up goooooone now

Full single set up ready to go in this week.

Thanks to GTRBOYZ everything is practically brand new,

A few more upgrades and im almost there. hopefully i can get some dyno sheets up shortly.

Still considering on e85 after all this is done, maybe i just like the smell... who knows

Thanks mate,

Yes I am a little sceptic myself still, however my builder is pretty certain using these turbo upgraded parts, we can acheive full boost much earlier.

obviously with my engine work a few other things. I was happy around the 4k mark initially but this would be awesome if it works out.

maybe the Candy apple red block im getting done will make the turbo spool faster :)

    • The real question is, on some of those wild roads they call highways, how many times did a farmer in an old ute from the early 2000s blaze past you over double lines?   Tassie is a wild and really cool place, and after doing a work related road trip there January of 24, I understand why Targa Tasmania is ran there, and is so tough to do well at! We had a brand new Camry Hybrid that handled quite nicely, and thankfully weren't in an old car, because cresting some of those hills in a 100kmh zone for it to suddenly be like "surprise f**kers, this is a recommended 30kmh hard right turn" wouldn't be pretty. We weren't racing the Camry around, but we weren't slouching in the bends either. But my lord those old farmers know their old clapped out utes, and those roads, as they were absolutely hammering it!   You're also super lucky to make it up to Mt Wellingtong this time of year. It's often road closed with snow/ice! Also, I hope you hit up Salamander Road in Hobart for some insanely good food (I highly recommend the dimly lit Irish pub for a Guiness Pie, or even the bangers and mash!!!)   How long did the Ferry take to get across? I want to do a road trip of Tas on my own time, but I get horrifically sea sick, and I don't want me on the Ferry, just the car 😛
    • So far so good, about 30km on it so far and nothing out of sorts yet thankfully
    • Look at @Kinkstaah's thread on the issue.
    • Hmm not really, I'd say its race car life or modified car life when you make 3 or 4 times the power Nissan designed the car for lol. 
    • I'll let others with more breakage chime in, but I can't think of anyone who had a problem with the standard centre plate before they had a problem with the standard gears - the plate generally just gets replaced for safety when the gearset is upgraded. As for the gearsets, its not like they are OK at 600Nm and break at 601. Their longevity is a combination of how much torque you are making and how gentle you are on shifts (or not).
