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 :)

    • Thanks for the response. This is an 04 EP3 Type R. JDM spec. Fairly certain they're just basic BC racing coils. I do plan to keep as the ride quality on stock I've been told is pretty meh given Sydney roads. If I were to go down that avenue, does NSW require them to be a certain spec (close to original) etc?
    • Should have asked what is the car?
    • I've had two super conflicting experiences with blue slips. My 30 year old E39 waltzed through with no issues but my brother in law was knocked back on 12 y/o 3 series due to wiper blades and some cracking in a control arm bush.  What kind of coil overs? Do you want to keep them after?  If it was me I'd get some dirt cheap shocks and springs from eBay or scumtree. Not ideal but will get you over the line and might even be less than $1k.
    • Hey guys,  Way back when (about 15yrs plus), I picked up a beautiful set of Tein 'Super Racing Spec Circuit Master RE' coilovers from Russman. I have legit never fitted them to my car, as it was garaged indefinitely while i bought a house Yada Yada. They look brand new! Anyway its time to pick up where I left off, and have started doing some khanacross and am booked in for a hill climb next month. The car has some hard af Nismo shocks in ATM, which has me wanting to upgrade again, and now I am left wondering if it's worth having these teins rebuilt? I think they where an ok shock back then, but how do they compare to what's on the market now?  Shockworks/mca are 2800+, and I am sure they are great. But if I can have these rebuilt and be better than, say, a set of bc's for around the cost of bc's, I would be happy with the performance v cost trade off.  If they are considered outdated and rubbish these days, so be it, I'll put them on the shelf and be happy to look at the pretty green colour while I save for the SW/MCA option. Grateful for your thoughts on the matter, and suggestions on who could do the rebuild if it's a worthwhile pursuit.  cheers, Rowdy. 
    • I can't speak for the US, but for Canada as I mentioned above, all fuel gases contain ethanol. We have regulations for E5/E10/E15. Each province handles it differently but basically any fuel gases sold must be E10 and slowly increasing to E15 by a certain year.
