not sure it a secret

Nah

Mine is a 26/30

He did tell me about that one though

Dropped in on him today to give him a push, fkin busier than ever. If you say tall guy from the east with the blonde gf he'll know who you're talking about...

I don't care about the top end just yet and the car came with GT-SS...a top end that dies off at 400awkw is still a fast car. Is it fast enough so we can fly away? I don't know.

Everyone goes for 11ty unusable gearbox breaking kw in their GTR...rather do something cheaper, different and friendlier for the street. Acceleration in any gear at any rpm, that's the plan.

Tbh my car fell apart with a GTX3076R which maxes out at 400rwkw (on manual) because it was too responsive. Having to set a rev limit at 5900 rpm is kind of lol.

Would suspect same issue with GTSS-s and a RB30, but maybe not. You gotta give it a go, and the turbos are already with the car so f**kit why not?

I had other issues relating to dat dere 14s pass :P

It's just a preference i hold for runing through revs.

For example, I preferred my car to Al's. Both 330rwkw but his was on it by 2k and over by 6k whereas mine was 3k to 7.5k

Both massive fun... very different animals though

And yours is only a 2.8L as well!

I thought it reached max power well before 5.9k rpm?

Swapping down the track isn't too difficult...GT-SS hold their value well and usually worth a little more than -5, so I'm looking at the cost of a turbo swap and a retune for bigger turbos if I want more power. I love my responsive GTS-T though and would want a similar set up in the R.

Only need to put low boost through a 30 to get big numbers, plus it'll be E85 after the 98 tune.

You really think youll hit 400awkw? Thats more than just a decent motor to get that far

Barry believes it, with E85. RB26s with 98 make about 340-350 with GT-SS.

have you driven a 3.0 RB?

the difference the displacement makes is a lot more than you would expect.

it should be a fair whack more responsive than your gtst

Al's car is like a freaking V8

Interesting

Steve 34R aka R8TED only made 317kw on the racepace dyno on e85 and -9's. Not sure what the norm is, maybe Matt Borci will throw in his 2 cents

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
