a) vehicle that can beat 1000cc bikes.

b) 32GTR

c) vehicle with VR38DETT

pick one. especially if you would like the project to not drag on for more than 2 years.

Let the haters hate.... You seem keen and have done research into it.

Would be one of the firsts in a 32 gtr but it wouldn't be the last if all goes to plan.

Biggest challenge would be engine bay clearance and obviously as previously stated gear ratios etc.

You got the motivation and that's all you need . Good luck hope to see some photos soon;)

And if all else fails you've got a nice engine to stick into another car !

NOW THATS THE REASON I POSTED

big thanks mate

your search skills are MUCH better than mine,

things we learnt from that video,
IT BLODDY FITS,
ITS AWD, he has slicks on the front
the is actually alot more room than i expected
now im much more confident i can make it work
IM BUYING THE ENGINE
YOU LEGEND !!!

Really, where cause as far as i can see only the apron is custom, the factory strut towers and full engine bay (other then apron which makes no difference) are still in place

Frankly if you people dont have anything nice to say or constructive advice, feel free to not comment, this is the build thread not wasteland so move on

the reason he has a custom radiator support is to help him fit those giant turbos, his custom inter cooler and the radiator in new locations

mick is right, the strut towers are still untouched

im running stock turbos, if they fit in the tunnel that is

as the vr38 V6 is shorter than the rb26 inline 6 in the north south direction, there will be plenty of room to run the piping

As guessed the VR38 is pretty much the same as a VQ.

Nice find on that forum thread

Kinda kicks all the nay sayers in the balls :P

This is what he had, an RB, and he wants faster, so.....VR38 can prob do that in such a light car
His fastest time of 7.4 seconds is quick as fck, maybe see if u can get in contact with him.

quick question boys

inittaly i will run the car on the stock gearbox till i get it running right

then the gearbox will explode, thats nearly guaranteed

which way should i go,

im thinking OS GIKEN gear set

anyone have any better ideas,

i still want a normal car, no dogbox or sequential

    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
    • The filter only filters down to a specific size. Add to that, the filter is AFTER the pump. So it means everything starts breaking your pump even if its being filtered out.
    • Just like in being 14mm too small (296mm) makes it not fit, being 14mm too big (324mm) it also won't fit. You want to find the correct rotor.
    • @GTSBoy Ok so that was the shops problem...they showed R33 rotors on R34 page and i did not know 296 do not fit(and are for R33) Yes i bought "kit" with rotors and pads. Pads are ok(i have GTT calipers front and rear). They have some 324mm but no 310mm. So i dont know if they would fit. I have 17inch LMGT4s So another question. Can i fit those in the rear or they are just "too" big for that?
