What?

GT-R engine in the Z would rape the GT-R hard so its normal that they didn't put it on there.

I think he is just joking around.


I hope :roflpuke2:

A little more exotic????? It doesn't have an exotic line or profile to it so how can it be "a little more" exotic??????

I was being politically correct. Ok, to be exact,

"it is ugly, no lines to it, it looks cheap, and done half-azzzzzd."

:)

it needs a body kit!!!!!!!!!!

I'll drink to that!! :tup:

lmao realized i never posted a pict.

I actually like the way the GTR looks.

u quoted my pict did you mean you like the way THIS GTR looks or the stock one?

I like the stock one and the one in your pic

The decision on the brakes will be made after the 9th next month since we are going to francorchamps for a full day.

looked at the exhaust, everything is replaced by a titanium exhaust(don't know what brand) except for the cats.

When I was looking at NAGTROC doing some browsing on how to get 500 whp out of a GTR (don't own one, just curious). Guys were talking about as long as you do upgrades past any of the sensors, ie: O2 sensors, that what can they (the dealership) really say as far as warranty goes, you haven't modified anything to affect how the stock engine and ecu operate. Sure the ecu is gonna adjust to the increased air flow in the exhaust but it is still using the stock parameters that Nissan programmed. Another thing to do is talk to the service manager at your dealership, ask if they have a problem with your dad puting a mid-pipe and exhaust on the car or the brakes that were brought up earlier. I have read where the midpipe makes a world of difference in the car so just another mod option. Just my two pennies.

havent read all the responses on this thread, but if your father is looking to upgrade his gtr, the first thing he wants to get is a cobb. its the best thing EVARRRR lol. depending on how much he wants to spend, the next thing he should get are a midpipe and downpipes. I have this setup with a custom tune from Jack Cecil at HorsepowerLogic (in south florida, but he tunes around the world) and my car runs high 10's in the 1/4, completely reliable and safe, and im around 530whp on a mustang dyno. PM me if you want more detailed info and more support.

anything past the 02 sensors is gonna give you more like a little over 500 HP at the crank... midpipe and exhaust are good for like 25hp on average without a tune... but your right they have no bearing really on anything to do with the ECU or engine as the boost is electronically controlled... now you get less back pressure so you might get a little more boost and slightly quicker spool but i mean even in stock form. each GTR is gonna vary a little and its not going to factor in as far as waranty...

as for warranty.. here in the US the dealership doesnt have the power to accept or deny big item warranty claims on a GTR.. if you have a transmission or engine issue they get someone from the GTR team involved to pull your information and make the final decision... if you are a GTR owner and your loical dealership gives you BS about installing a simple midpipe just go to another one that will work with you.

I think the GT-R looks great stock; adding a body kit just makes it look juvenile / tacky.

the dealership were the ones who advised the bodykit and exhaust and now the brakes :roflpuke2:.

The benefits of the owner and his son doing nothing but go on tracks and do races and driftraces and tuning their cars.

the boss's son was actually happy when I came to him with the stillen CAI. "thank god finally a 370 with aftermarket parts, the originals are boring me"


Ah yes.

apparently he ordered his brake system. no idea what he picked.

Now he wants new rims

but he wants big rims like 21/22 or bigger since he wants to fill up the wheel arches but without lowering the car

Finally figured out the exhaust

GTC titan

If he wants to upgrade anything it should be the audio system. Contact me and I can take care of it for him. No joke.

Remember ... I live in belgium

He means it still im sure... if he gets a plane tix to belgium :)

I personally love how he is basically going

**** brakes, engine, exhaust

get audio

haha

brakes have been picked and are being installed.

http://www.stillen.com/product_images/NIS3900J.jpg

+ new brakepads, I don't know what brand but they were red. :ugh2:

He is also getting his calipers painted red and he got some limited edition BBS rims, only 25 made for europe

Dear god

seems like he will probably get the switzer P800 kit

the switzer is amazing. good choice.

More performance can be had with components and a quality build, for a lot less..

I'd encourage you to contact Sean Morris, our GT-R specialist here at STILLEN, we brought him on for his knowledge and depth of the GT-R.

His email is seanm@stillen.com, I guarantee he'll be a valuable resource for you.

I think hes in belgium dunno if u guys do that. But thats y i didnt recommend AMS to them

Well my father doesn't really like dealing with english speaking people since he doesn't understand any of the language and he doesn't trust me with advice on his car. :roflpuke2:

We currently are working together with a GT-R/Z tuner here who has always worked on them and has a high reputation of 0 engine failures.

He can pretty much do anything, installing kits, customizing engines, enlarging them (he is working on a 4.2 liter 350Z currently) making custom pistons and stuff.

but advice is always welcome since that guy I work with isn't a elitist ******* :roflpuke2:

lol necro post but felt like updating the state of the GT-R

My father has now ordered

HKS intercooler

http://www.advancespeedshop.com/blog...3001-AN013.jpg

HKS dumpvalves

http://www.hksusa.com/images_products/L_3744.jpg

HKS racing suction intake

http://cougar-raceparts.com/shop/ima...R35%20GT-R.jpg

and custom COBB tuning

and after a year or two when he gets tired of the mods he will

rebuild his engine with mods by some company named JUN or something and put on

HKS GT800 GTII Turbo Kit

http://www.hksusa.com/images_products/3932.jpg

and stuff like gearbox cooling, reinforcing the gearbox and so on.

Some company JUN....
Read: JUN AUTO - JUN AUTO JAPAN - HIGH QUALITY PARTS AND PROCESSING
They do some of the best engine internals for JDM cars, very expensive but very good.

Well it was the first time I heard of the company so yeah :roflpuke2:

If I remember right the complete engine build was around 30.000 euro = 40.773 dollars + the cost of the turbo kit.


Tom was drooling over the pictures he took when the rebuild engine for a R34 came in. :roflpuke2:

JUN will not be cheap, but if they are still as good as they were with the RB26/SR20 era motors then it will be a very good build.

Well the engines they made sure look pretty compared to the way stock looks :roflpuke2:
