Hay fellas

I'm starting to build my r34 gtt and i want to get about 260 to 300 kw at the rears.

So far I have a blitz return flow fmic

A pod filter

A 3 inch dump pipe to cat, And 4 inch cat back.

Is the 4inch cat back exhaust to big ?

Or should I buy a turbo to suit ?

On the to buy list is

Turbo

Injectors

Fuel pump

And ecu and tune

Am I missing something ?

Cheers

also easy to get massive kw,

just buy the usual shopping list tonns of fuel lots of over priced parts with a massive turbo and you will smash massive hp

also have a shit as all hell car to drive which will last for 3 months.

hard to make big kw, usable, reliable and well tuned.

Aim for 260 rather than 300 unless you have to have 300. Then get a Hypergear bolton, unless you're rich. Nistune ECU if you want to keep it as close to standard looking legal as possible, otherwise just about any aftermarket ECU will do the job (Hypergear will want to sell you an Adaptronic, which is OK, others here will tell you to go PowerFC, or Link or it's cousin, all of which are OK).

If you retain Nistune or PowerFC you'll need a Z32 AFM. Get some fuel system upgrades and a tune and you'll be gold.

Oh, and a clutch. Oh, and some better brakes. Oh, and thnik about making sure the dampers aren't dead, and the bushes. And so on.

Yep.

Clutch

Brakes

Suspension

Diff

Wider wheels and good tyres

That is roughly 6k just there and without it you 260rwkw car will be slower than a car with those mods and only 200rwkw

At 200rwkw my injectors were maxed and clutch started to slip.... So yes you certainly need to upgrade all the supporting items....

and at 360rwkw your clutch decided it wanted to be permanent part of your fly wheel.

I've read this 3 times and I'm still trying to work out what you were trying to communicate...

Lol yes this is correct....

Shows when building a decent GTT that overkill is never enough :)

better than the flywheel wanting to make close friends with your ankle... seen that too.

easy to make power, hard to make a good car

Kind of irrelevant for OP.... GTT is a tough base and a damn good car when built right

I will aim for 260 but if I can get more I won't complain :)

So a 4 inch cat back exhaust is over kill ?

I run a 3" system and I'm making 363kw, that being said the exhaust is choking the car a tad I reckon BUT 4" is not necessary.... If you go 3.5" then make sure it has big free flowing mufflers and none of this hotdog and cannon crap :)

if you already have it, just leave it on. it's overkill, but doesn't mena you need to go buy something smaller.

Good pick up, I didn't see that.... Yeah keep it if it's quiet and street able

E85 also masks some of that too.

If you tried it on pump you'd be unlikely to get there :)

    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
