yes very annoying and waste of time and money.. ahh wells
its alrite now.. i've got a new setup on the way.. running twin bosch 044s now should be goin in soon.. just waiting on the blokes to be free to install it
the results of the tune sounds alright
but yeh fuel pump and u will most probbly get 300kw+
look forward to seeing the next results

yea it should be good man... comparing it to a mate of mine.. we've pretty much got an identical setup and same turbos... but the headwork on mine is more extensive and i've got a bigger set of cams too compared to his.. him running 13 psi.. made 250kw.. then on 19psi made 350kw and on 24psi made 416kw.. tuner said comparing those 2 engines.. mine will be 300kw and more at 16psi and he's looking to pus 23psi out of it.. to get a mark close to 400kw also depending on whether the new fuel system holds up too lols.. just have to wait and see

14-08-07, 05:31 PM

thanks mate.. yea i wasnt goin too.. but the way i'd set it up before.. it was choking the car.. and it wasnt boosting over 7psi on the dyno.. soo i had to get rid of it.. and get filters.. hence y its such a tight fit in there.... noo iam not spraying my car.. iam leaving it silver... its the centre piece of the wheels which i have already had painted gold... iam just not sure now.. if iam gona like it with the silver.. and its gona cost me bit more to get it stripped and painted again.

thanks for the feedback,
answering sub11z:
ahh on the topic of the 2540s, on my previous tune, they wouldnt
be hitting boost till bout 4500-5000rpm, but now with this retune
boost is coming in at 2000rpm and full boost by 4500rpm, i've lost
a bit of overall power but i've gained bottom end response,
and that's what i like for the street, the car drives beautiful now
ohhh and as for photos, iam just currently in the middle of gettin this thing re-sprayed
and it doesnt look the tidiest lols, soo once that's complete then i'll throw up some new pics

20-09-09, 12:54 PM
Hey all, it's been a while
but just ran into money issues aiyy lolol
well here's an update
just finished a full rebuild of the motor, everything top to bottom as well as the turbos have been replaced and/or modified. car is now pushing 320kw at all four wheels at 19psi of boost, i ran an 11.4 @ 116mph on my old setup running 290kw at all four wheels at that time, this time there was just too much wheel spin in 1st and 2nd gear ended up running 11.8 @ 119mph 60ft dropped from 1.6 to 2.2 hopefully with the new wheels/tyres and suspension ill get a better time, i also picked up a kakimoto full mega n1 exhaust, twin pipe set up, bit loud on the ears.. lol but sounds nice and tough now
she's currently in the paint shop gettin a new respray and kit, and the new set of wheels will be coming soon, here's a couple photos of it at the paint shop

yea it's a lovely piece of work to drive around now.. compared to the last setup with the 2540s was just a bit too much lagg in it for me.. awesome top end. but u dont realli have the roads or the proper place to open it up to take advantage.. soo now i've gone for a smaller set of nismo N1 turbos.. excellent response boosting in at 2000rpm hitting full boost at about 3000-3500 rpm and pulls all the way to 8000rpm.. drives beautiful
its gonna be a machine when its on the road! goodluck with it all.

Hey Luke, mate there's always room for more! hahaha... nah ill see how it goes after christmas shopping.. iam thinking of changing the turbo setup again to a set of bigger twin top mounts.. or a big single
As for the wheel fitment, yes ur right it is bad to run different rim widths or i've even seen different profile from front to rear any of the combination will muck around with the 4WD system as well as the 4WS system, that's y i never went ahead with my previous plans, my mechanic advised me of this and believe me he noes gtrs inside and out, i've also experienced it first hand myself, a friend of mine put smaller profiles on the rears than the front and the 4WD constantly stayed on then also made the steering a whole lot heavier, we changed the tyres and everything went back to normal

Hey mate... the paint work was done at at a won smash repairs in chipping norton, the quality of the paint turned out beautiful alot better than brand new cars these days.. it has to be seen in person to see how good the paint work actually is, the paint turned out alot better than i thought it would have..
as for the diffuser, my mate bought it for me for my birthday a few months back, i thnk he said he got it from bodyform

Just a small update, did a few changes to the engine bay.. new fuel rail, injectors and regulator put the standard air box back in after an incident with the fuzz
purchased a new Haltech Platinum Pro ECU switched over to a MAP sensor and had it tuned by Adam and Just Engine Management didnt gain too much extra powe but the new computer improved the drivability of the car, power delivery comes on a bit earlier also much more smoother and it now has a bit more torque than before.
