Hey everyone!!

As you all know once you buy a GTR you will end up broke but that's the fun of it hehe ;)

Well it's a 33 gtr, just recently the hg let go after getting it tuned!! All the car had is a full exhaust and adaptronic ecu. So it's time for upgrades :)))

So far I got the stock twin turbo off and pretty much I broke every single pipe bolt etc ( it was a night mare). Now slowly taking the intake side off and then head off!! 

Mod list:

Bw s300sxe (8376 - 62mm) ts .91

Ts 6boost mani 

Turbosmart 50mm ext pro gate

3.5" tbh (no cat)

4" intake pipe

avcr boost controller or I can use the ecu to control the boost ( which one is better) 

fmic 100mm

3" intercooler piping 

Bosch 2000 cc injectors (any issue using them on e85)

walbro 460l fuel pump ( thinking of going 2 in tank pump setup)

turbosmart fuel reg 

tomei hg 87 bore and 1.2 thinkness with intake n exh as well

tomei type valve springs 

arp head studs

tomei 1.5 oil restrictor 

new radiator and also all the hoses are getting changed

im getting the timing done with all the seals etc 

setting up an oil catch to control the oil better.

hopefully will reach the 400kw as the motor still stock but will see how far it will get to before it blows up.

i will be taking pictures as I go so hopefully everything will turn out to be good.

 

any suggestions or tips to help please let me know.

i hope you guys enjoy it

thanks

    • Interesting. I still think they are the result of impact damage somewhere along the line, but clearly lightning has stuck thrice! I've still got the original ones on my race car and they have had some hard work.
    • Just had this happen to me too.  R32 GTR.   Also broke "just before going out onto the track" - someone up there is looking out for us... Very scary since I was about to do a narrow street course with zero run-off and curbs everywhere. Many people on here upgrading to billet uprights and R35 bearings?   Or buying new OEM knuckles?  I am not keen to replace with another s/h 30 year old fatigued part.
    • Top off with distilled water and see what happens. If you keep losing coolant then you know to start looking.
    • Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win? 
    • So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?
