GTR being built!

The construction has begun on a track-ready 600 awhp beast! We decided to get it all done at once rather than in pieces.

Precision FMIC
Greddy Oil cooler
Custom Hard Piping
Power FC
Garrett GT2871R turbos (or slightly larger)
Custom exhaust
Custom downpipe
Custom turbo elbows and wastegate dumps
Custom Fuel system with return lines
rc720 injectors
ATS twin carbon clutch
Full Race turbo manifolds
etc.
etc.
etc.

They will be at max......I have a meeting with my shop to finalize the build and things may change.....Our areas of concern are going to be in the injectors, the clutch and the driveshaft. We are looking at options for axles, carbon fiber and kevlar drive shafts, and other strengthening items.

The duty cycle will be climbing on up there for one, but the pulse width on GTR's is usually pretty good, but if you are going to spend the money on injectors, make them the right ones for the job the first time and save yourself the money rather than replacing them later. I guess I would rather have a litte too much than not enough.

Nope I had it powder coated and the rest of the engine high lights will match that color blue when it's all said and done.

That's only on a select few trims of R34 GTR. Most are just a standard black top. The Nismo editions have red covers. The Nur edition has a Gold top. The 400R....not sure if it was red or not...I want to say it was. I think the 1996 La Mans edition was blue with/or carbon fiber. The best look for these vavle covers (which ) I plan on doing is a polished metallic. It looks like a piece of bruched alumium.

Some items are a must for turbo:

Aeromotive fuel pressure regulator
1000cc injectors for 600 awhp (not rc....they suck. Get one without a pintel)
Walboro fuel pump
Stainless lines to all fuel and oil
etc.

I know you are already turboed and all but I just had to comment based on my experience. The duty cycle is too high for 600. You'd be at like 85-90%. Use your engine managment to turn them suckas down.

indeed Hugh you speak the truth sir. This is a build the ultimate car type situation. It's one of those hypothetical if money was no option what would you build kind of things. (of course there are limits) but after you create the ultimate set up you see where you can save some cash here and there.

i don't think you want to "save" on fuel....you can save on turbos and use slightly smaller ones with more boost. You can "save" on piping sizes and intercooler sizes. I mean....they ****ty part of going turbo is that you want the best, you need the best, but can you afford the best and if you can't they why go FI

Someone told me this before I started going FI

fast, reliable, cheap....pick any two combination b/c you must sacrifice the other.
