Benny from Chasers is apparently running a similiar twin 3240 setup on the new GTR. I have not seen it in person just going by what someone told me recently.
I suspect a nice amount of bullshit in this thread :D  

Show us some pics of this powerhouse engine setup steve.

these two post's go hand in hand :D....if bullshit was music...those (unts would own a brass band :D

Dude the specs are so mismatched it's hard to beleive that it's a real combination. If a workshop or machine shop was putting it together they would have said something, if it was assembled at home the person doing it would know something about the combination and it would not be as stated.

Then you have the pictures, which do not line up with the stated specs. So either the pics are false, or the original post is false. Either way there's some porkies going on and again it leads to the 1st post having no clue.

I give the thread 9/10 stars, Troy's jokes lifted it up from a measly 4 for entertainment.

Remeber I said 'apparently'.

Horus can clear this us.

the car is being built, last time I saw it it was on the hoist with the turbos and a few other bits pulled off, they were initially saying that it was going to be ready for the first autosalon, however with the huge amount of work they have been getting related to the drifts it was put on the backburner

ever noticed how many times Ive mentioned this vs how many times this keeps getting brought up? get over it, me, nor the workshop, nor the nutter paying for this car really give a flying f**k whats said about it on the internet, so you guys shouldnt either, when the car is debuted start talking then....frankly if you are all so concerned about autosalon and the like, concentrate more on what you are doing for it, and try not to enter cars with panel damage, it is a car show after all :uhh:

Well I guess we just wait and see with this one. I'm not in a position to add detail or confirm or deny the setup as I haven't seen it, and steve is off to japan for a bit so there will be no more bites there, but I am hoping to see it soon.

He's a pretty good guy as well. How many people would borrow your trailer and bring it back fully resprayed? Matt, if you are so desperate for the dyno print I'll ask if he has it.

Also, yes, Steve has a long standing association with Issy at SelectMaz, doing a lot of their rotor porting work for them as well as spending time on the workshop floor. Issy also now owns SelectMaz outright and intends to move more into the Skyline and import market (apparently even bought a GTR32), so if MoTeC is on your shopping list I would recommend giving them a call.

Anyway, Steve has some expectations from this motor so good luck to him.

LOL ur still pissed off he didnt send u your dyno print out from the selectamaz dyno day aint ya?? :P
LOL actually I called Issy myself ages ago and he printed another dyno graph and posted it out to me :upurs: Steve shouldn't have taken everyone's print outs to send out when he didnt have everyone's details, then take over a month to send them out!

      R32 GT-R: 4WD Light Turns On After Bumps – Code 19 (ETS Motor) But No Issues Found

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.

      R32 GT-R: 4WD Light Turns On After Bumps – Code 19 (ETS Motor) But No Issues Found

      By Bireley_32 · Posted

      Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      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...

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      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.
