kaneryan Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 (edited) Well I thought I might start a build thread. I purchased my GTR in APR 2012 after selling my F6 Typhoon. soon after I didn't like the wheels so I sold them for some Rota Grids 18x10+15 I then decided to get ride of the front bar as it lots of stone chips and I really liked the look of the z tune so purchased the side skirts and rear pods aswell from here I decided to give the car a bit more power I thought id take it to JEZ and let him work some magic adding a power fc, coil packs, front pipe, cat, making 272rwkw after having a few issues with the injectors and some AFM that were ment to be good copies ( LOL ) we installed them and some 2860-5s. we were looking at 324kw at 20psi on 98. after the tune my aim was around the 330kw mark but didn't achieve it JEZ said the car was restricting in the exhaust somewhere and wasn't sure if it was the cat or the exhaust so my next step was to throw an exhaust on and see if it felt a bit better. I decided to go a TRIAL TITAN from Japan once it took ages to get from japan I finally fitted it. it is 80mm and made a heap of a difference than my old 76mm fujitsubo. but was a bit loud for my liking as it was my daily and driving to and from work needed a exhaust a bit quieter don't get me wrong does sound very tough but needed something more practical so in between deciding a new exhaust I decided to put a pod box on my pods as a so call police officer suggested that I do so otherwise so dodgy I know I put one on so before I found my next exhaust I got a mid section made up by chris from best mufflers in Sydney great guy and recommend to anyone this then made the exhaust quieter and a lot more practical for my personal preference. but as It was quitter it was then back to 76mm and had restriction again so I decided to do a little body work over Christmas with a clay bar and polish I then decided to fix up my MFD as it had a horrible colour coming through and changed to film to make it look nice and new after this my new exhaust arrived so It was time to swap it all over and put on my Nismo weldina NE-1 saying goodbye to my titanium after only 4000km once putting the nismo exhaust on it was the best sounding exhaust I have had on the GTR its a 2x60mm - 80mm dump pipes back the only thing wrong was with the power im going to push soon it was soon going to be a bit small for what I want so I decided to go back to the thinking cap. I then get deployed to the middle east and whilst there I decided to do up a list of some things I wanna get done when I get back so the list currently sits on my floor at home ready to be put in the car when I get home I have waiting for me: tomei poncams and cam gears gates timing belt and N1 water pump hard pipe kit nismo intercooler HPI dumps race pace front pipe 3''x2 - 3.5" ( these are amazing looking ) venom 3.5" cat with 5" body HKS Super turbo muffler exhaust Haltech platinum pro with eflex tune arc induction box cant wait to get home and have a look at all the goodies ill put up some photos when I get home in a few days Edited September 1, 2013 by kaneryan Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/431166-kanes-gr34tr-build/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Four - Twelve Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 Looks like the build is coming along well. Which diffuser is that? Top Secret? Also, which exhaust required you to cut into the rear bar? Most exhausts for gtrs should clear this but perhaps one didn't? I am sure you are probably aware that head work can be an expensive procedure and can snowball if you let it. Perhaps for reliability's sake consider replacing the valve springs and adding an oil restriction orifice whilst you are at it, the later of which is cheap as chips with the head off. Will be following this thread. Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/431166-kanes-gr34tr-build/#findComment-7015051 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be following this thread. Sorry mate didn't catch your name? its a top secret style diffuser. well to be honest I didn't cut into the exhaust my TI exhaust I bought for the GTR whilst fitting I played around with the rubber holders and drive from the central coast to Sydney with it. I wasn't paying attention to what I had done as it was about 7pm at night once I finished and just wanted to get home, and when I got home I had a look and I accidently played around with the rubber holder that much that it was touching on the rear bar hence causing that nice cut out haha. im not going overboard with the car just yet, just cams with eflex not upgrading fuel pump or inj ( bosch 044/ 1000cc ) as if im gonna run 400+kw I want to have an engine rebuilt ready to go, so im gonna keep it around the 350-360kw mark for now until I decide to make more power or what to do.... cant go too big too quick otherwise it gets boring and you will get tired of the car plus you do everything to it at once theres nothing to look forward to.

kaneryan Posted September 12, 2013 Author Share Posted September 12, 2013 Also got my HKS AFM Deletes and got them onto my ARC induction box after giving it a really good polish, came up very shiny and I think is gonna make the engine bay look nice and shiny along with the hardpipe kit and the already installed catchcan.

Four - Twelve Posted September 13, 2013 Share Posted September 13, 2013 It's John. It's good that you know where you want to take this car and seem to have done appropriate research as well - a lot of people don't show this foresight and end up with a car that doesn't work, or a huge debt, neither of which are something you want. And why spend money on something you don't really need at this stage anyway. Did you have trouble mount the ts diffuser to a non spec? I know new mounts are required for fitting a oem diffuser, making it a right pain to fit.

kaneryan Posted September 13, 2013 Author Share Posted September 13, 2013 Thanks John! Um nah didnt have much trouble as it was fitted to a 34 before so all the brackets came with it so it was a good fit just had to give it a little bit of helping in some places but other than that a great fit and works well with the bayside blue.. I was thinking about the vspec diffuser but everyones got one so I wanted mime to still look clean but not the same as everyone else Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/431166-kanes-gr34tr-build/#findComment-7018676 Share on other sites More sharing options...
