Very impressive. I know that with modern single turbos, more power can be made but some people enjoy the factory twin turbo sleeper look; im one of them.

Your figure is a perfect number for daily and track days; also the occasional spirited twisties. 

Was there any cam gear adjustment?

I dont think so but it might need it does run a bit lumpy on idle. Ye its plenty power for track now, any more and I will need a big brake kit. I just ordered some pfc rotors for front and some pfc 11 pads all round. I have Pfc uprades on my M3 and its so good with stock calipers.

Lumpy idle. Yeah its probably the cams. I saw just yesterday a blue gtr with tomei cams and e85. It was very lumpy on cold start and idle. Some cam gear adjustment will help shift the powerbank; great for an upgraded turbo rb26, especially on slower corners and on the street.

The car looks great, i had an r33 gts4 a long time ago and ive always loved the r33 gtr. Definitely put a stock rear bumper on, we are over the whole bling bling bodykits. Oem is king now.

Ye ok. Will get the cams looked into. Im going to collect a black rear bumper tomorrow. $20

I read that  the gtst and gtr are the same rear bumper so it should fit.

It would be a lot better if the hackers cracked the TCU software so that it could be improved but nobody has managed it yet.

 

Pretty sure TMR can do this. I was down there this morning and he mentioned something about it.

Possibly getting my EVO X SST repaired/fixed.

Mine is more of fixing a slipping issue and possible replacing of clutch packs. $5 to $6k exercise.

 

But if you have a specific question i can ask next time i chat to him next week.

Ye I had slipping in mine too so I installed new Viton seals and SSP 600HP rated clutch packs. Mine shifts hard and fast in supersport mode but still slips slightly in normal and sport. Afaik nobody has cracked the TCU software so the slipping in normal and sport cant be improved on too much so I always drive in supersport with paddles.

I spoke to Dan this morning and yes TMR can crack the TCU software. Speak to Dan McCoey he is very knowledgeble.

If you speak to him this week tell him Tony referred you he is working on my car as we speak.

 

Appears to be a SST tunning issue which no other major workshop has picked up on. And im talking a 'few' specialist Evo workshops.

Wow thats huge news. People all over the world have been trying to crack it since 2008. I knew they could control some SST tables but to have full control of the TCU will help performance a lot.

      Squeaking clutch/throw out bearing

      By patrickxdf12 · Posted

      Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4

      A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
