Hi Mick, had a few quickish cars , even the 350GT with the twin turbo kit got it going with good torque to help from the getgo.

Not much good having speed if you cannot stop it :(

Yeah Bob, my mechanic is a racer from way back and he runs the same pads, I gave him a choice to use whatever he thought would be best for me but said if I want to start doing some runs I would have to upgrade them. I think they were ultima

Good to see it making a noise again, so I guess it could be all done very soon, but ??

Tried to post the vid , only short but still too big to download and I do not know how to make the file smaller :(

FINALLY! :D

Looking forward to seeing some results Pete

Hi Mick, yeah mate it will be interesting BUT nothing like a lot of blokes think it will be, before the build we were expecting about 400awkw on 98 pump and going hard early, limited around 8000 ish. It will be interesting for me to see the difference the stroker will make from idle ?

If it is not better than my TT350GT I will be pissed as my Son has it now and will stick it to me :(

Just wanted a gutsy 34 street car to get that smile back on my wrinkly old mush :)

I am excited to see how all the drivetrain works in together with the changes. I probably will not get the full benefit from the work, but I will try to enjoy it

sent Paul an email with the short vid of the car going, he will probably say they switched the plates,lol

Its alive!! Hah someone had to say it, thats great news pete. 400kw and 8000 revs will be awesome with all that torque. I think your build is well executed for what you want from it.

LOL, thanks Mick, I will wait until I see the Dyno work and drive it before I pat myself on the back. The good thing with the stroker, there are many ways to go if I want something else from it , I hope not as it has cost much more than it should have :(

It is a different Nitto 3.2 combination than I could find regarding turbo and cams and it should be interesting to see how they will go, I have no idea but it will be fun to find out :)

Most guys that go such a large engine whack a big fark off turbo on it.

It's gonna be a rip snorter! Bulk torque at any rpm, won't have to rev it to the moon to make it want to get a hurry along.

Stop dicking around and get some results already! :D

Congratulations!

So good to hear.

No need to worry.

The gtr will have more usable power than the 350gt

It gets traction.

.Getting close Luke :)

My 350 was an Auto and after TT turbo, exhaust ect it was a fun car, never missed a gear change,lol

My 34 will have a shit load more KWs + HP and should smash it. I just need to get the bloody thing run in, tuned up and get to feel the drivability of it, now that is something to look forward to :)

    • Hi all,   long time listener, first time caller   i was wondering if anyone can help me identify a transistor on the climate control unit board that decided to fry itself   I've circled it in the attached photo   any help would be appreciated
    • I mean, I got two VASS engineers to refuse to cert my own coilovers stating those very laws. Appendix B makes it pretty clear what it considers 'Variable Suspension' to be. In my lived experience they can't certify something that isn't actually in the list as something that requires certification. In the VASS engineering checklist they have to complete (LS3/NCOP11) and sign on there is nothing there. All the references inside NCOP11 state that if it's variable by the driver that height needs to maintain 100mm while the car is in motion. It states the car is lowered lowering blocks and other types of things are acceptable. Dialling out a shock is about as 'user adjustable' as changing any other suspension component lol. I wanted to have it signed off to dissuade HWP and RWC testers to state the suspension is legal to avoid having this discussion with them. The real problem is that Police and RWC/Pink/Blue slip people will say it needs engineering, and the engineers will state it doesn't need engineering. It is hugely irritating when aforementioned people get all "i know the rules mate feck off" when they don't, and the actual engineers are pleasant as all hell and do know the rules. Cars failing RWC for things that aren't listed in the RWC requirements is another thing here entirely!
    • I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
    • The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.
    • No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.
