sounds good... but I think it is the gear used and the prep work. (Painted the wheel well in sound deadning tar, 5 layers of fibreglass and sealed the enclosure)

never really used alpine gear before but it really does produce quaily sound!

my car lives :( i got it off the hoist today, and it's now in my drive way. I did a shit job of bleeding the brakes, so i'll redo it tomorrow. And it gets tuned on wednesday.

Glad to hear its back on the road Ben, hopefully the tune goes well and you make it out to Symmonds :laugh:

You'll have to fire up some pics so we can see the only bits of a Porsche worthy of use on a GTR!

Here's some pics. I'm not sure if there big enough ;)

Awesome! Best bit they have on those german tractors. Rest of the skyline is OK too :no:

And you've got an 850R* ?!

* Or T5-R? Nice anyway.

That's mum's car.

My car didn't start to get tuned till this afternoon, it's running 280rwkw atm, and the cam gears havn't been set yet, and it's getting better plugs to run more boost :wave: . Should be done tomorrow.

MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM :miner:

Looks pretty sweet Luke, hope you get everything sorted out soon :laugh:

That's mum's car.

Haha, awesome.

My family's always had volvos (Dad has 2 old 240s and a 740 turbo - which he's pulling the motor out of for one of the 240 wagons), guess it rubbed off on me.

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
