I had 5 runs and left just as the burnouts started at 9. Yeh should be a fairly low 12 with some proper setting up. .

One of my runs - Had a great start with a 1.70 60foot (lowest for the night), hit 2nd gear pulling damm hard and the bloody ashtray fold out thing in front of the gear stick comes crashing out and blocking me going into 3rd gear!! Damm thing was full of loose change so it ended sending it all over the floor of the car haha..Cost me a good run!!

The ashtray ended up in the back seat somewhere..couldn't believe it when happened grrr

The 12.5 was at a 1.7 60 ft 1.79 to be exact..did the 1.70 on the ashtray affected run :)

Had a few close runs with MADGTR 2nite, he did a best of 12.4 i think.

Well done :)

Interesting, the first (and only time) i went to the drags with my stock turbos, making about 250rwkw i ran 12.4@111mph... there was more in it but the strip was crap for traction that day i was told by other regulars. Axle tramping all the way through 1st and 2nd sucks.

Do you feel there is anymore MPH in your current setup?

The R32 is also lighter so i would of expected it to be a little quicker than my R33.

Had a run out at WSID tonight..

12.5 at 112mph :D with a 1.7 60 foot

Perfect 60 ft , i only wish i could do that in mine but then again i have an extra 100 odd kg on me !

Good to see MADGTR having a go , if i knew i would have beeing there to match race him , as we have the same set up in our cars .

What was your trap speed Paul ?

The track would have been very average last night. Their hasn't been any racing on the track for about 10-14 days due to bad weather. It's also been about 3-4 days since I last seen the sun so the track temp would have been very low.

The run that you missed 3rd I remember my reaction from the launch (it looked way faster than the other runs) thinking "this has gotta be a low 12 for sure" then you missed 3rd :D

Their is certainly a 12.0-12.2 in the car, just a matter of time.

Good nite, pity about the weather (not many cars).

becuase an r32 gtr intercooler can run about .9-1 bar efficently before it starts to restrict the turbos(run out of flow capacity). an r34 gtr cooler flows a bit better from memory its about 1.2 bar

Edited by mr 32

I think it should be a tad bit higher with a good driver (no offense), quick gear changes, and revving it out all the way to 8 :P

Hell wrxhoon did 118mph in his 34 gtr with stsandard mods with gtss. the heads a bit better than it is on the 32 and 33 so hes got a bit more power .....

    • Yeah pretty impressive hey, good to see quality products not over-shooting their prices. That's what drew me to buy the hypergear turbo, just a shame I've never got the chance to see it in action
    • Thank you GTSBoy and MBS206 I have done the compression test with the motor out of the vehicle, reason for the test was to see if I needed to remove the head and do rings etc while its out. I'm in the process of respraying the vehicle and tidying up a few things. Story behind it all is I've just purchased the skyline and it was running when I got it, never drove it on the street though as I wanted to pull it down and do it all up again before registering it. the gentleman I purchased it from told me the motor has a forged bottom end and has a decent tune through it but I was going to pull the sump off anyway to see if it is a forged bottom end. that's why I thought id do a compression test beforehand. 
    • Man, I'm kind of amazed that the price of the turbo has not changed in 7 years. Everything else is inflating beyond reason, but not this? Good on Tao / hypergear I guess? Anyways, good luck with the sale!
    • I'm selling my brand new, in the box, never used Hypergear ATR45 - and I had some additions I paid for a few yrs back when I purchased it. Never ended up having the rest of the money to add all the mods at once, so I just ended up slowly selling each part. I originally had it internally gated, with the dump pipe, however I found it was incompatible with what I was going to use it for, so I contacted (I think Ken) from Hypergear, and he and I messaged back and forth & he got me to ship the turbo back, where they modified it & made it externally gated, and gave me the 5 bolt dump pipe attachment for custom welding. (Photos below) This turbo like I said has never touched the inside of an engine bay, it's completely brand new, never used, been sitting in the same box it arrived in, covered in plastic & all. Below are the photos of it: And while the guys at Hypergear were making it in-shop, they sent me some photos of the process: I'm looking at selling this just because I'm in need of the money right now, and don't have plans on modifying the 34 anytime soon - and from reviews & peformance sheets, this turbo had amazing results back when I was researching. The turbo was purchased in 2018 for $1.9k, with the mods I got added on. Looking at the website now, for the same turbo they sell (ATR45SAT), with the current addons it adds up to $1830 for the turbo Current addons included: - Bolted dump adaptor - Ball bearing CHRA - Braided oil feeding line So I'm looking to possibly sell it for around $1800, with shipping included in that 1.8k, It cost me around $120 to ship - so yeah thought I'd throw it out there and see if anyone was interested in purchasing. Cheers!
