So.. I may just be a "little" bored at work :P

I managed to read this whole thread during yesterday and today!

Great build mate! I've loved every post and I can tell no expense has been spared in the duration of this build.

Though I did get real bummed out after reading on from your shell issues :( I hope all works itself out and I'm sure no matter what you decide it will come up mint ?

Keep them up date's coming mate!

So after after 13 years its time to say farewell.......

IMG_2507_zpscotlakjv.jpg

After reflecting rather deeply of late, I am going to part with the car and an add will be posted in the coming weeks.

I have had loads of fun but also have had my fair share of downs with it but that comes with the GTR package.

I am at a stage in life where I have larger priorities now (my family being the main one) and I hardly get to drive it and now have even less time to work with it.

Plus from a commercial perceptive its at its best right now. Not even 5,000km on that motor.

Please note that I will be one picky mother f**ker when it comes to selling it as I want it to go to a good home that will give it the love and attention and respect it deserves.

But it certainly wont be my last GTR as its in my blood.

GTR for life.

    • You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?
    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
