Hey Anthony you'll get to take a good look at the car on 6th you can re live the memories :-P Nersan is coming along too..

Awesome!

Thanks for the positive comments all....
Some have doubts as to how this motor will run in stop & start city traffic, I'm crossing my fingers an wishing for the best. Might not be a very in town friendly motor setup, but I hope to beable to tune it so it can run fairly well within the city limits :drive:

It'll be fine! The turbos are a bit bigger than mine, but I bet you'll still have a pretty decent bottom end. It'll be interesting to see the torque curve.

Have you settled on a boost level? Power level?

Cheers,
Dan

Dan,
I was kinda hoping you might have been able to get over to Raymonds to take a look at what was wrong with the Vi-PEC to injector setup before Raymond had taken the Vi-PEC out, but it didnt happen .
As for boost & power level it wont be anything crazy for now as the motor still has to be broken in so I just want to get it so the motor runs smooth, just stock boost most likely for now ;-). After break in I wont beable to push it pass 600HP until I upgrade the dampener & injectors, I think...

You've got PM....

Cheers,

Well I got the Vi-PEC installed on Friday an have had it tuned for the first part of the break in period. Will try to get some pics up of the event.

[jdmtypes]

Here are some quick pics:
Ready for the journey,getting the car on this trailer was real chore :x

Anthony doing some Vi-PEC trouble shooting

Anthony doing some welding, had to move AFR sensor bung

A short vid of the car running sorry for the crappy audio my hand was over the mic at times. Yes you will hear some turbo shuffle but it can and was tuned out, car is only tuned to 4000RPM for this part of the break in.


Thanks to everyone at Lightspeed, was a good day all in all
PS..Thanks 333 for coming along on the journey.....

I really like the Enkei wheels......is your GTR broken in yet?

I was thinking about changing the colour of them to something more eye cathching but funds are pretty tight now:-( .
As for motor break in I have only driven it around the block a few times, still lots of snow on the ground around here. But spring will soon come :-D .

I saw a gtr being driven in st Albert yesterday. Almost tempted me to take mine out. Can't wait for the weather to get a little better.

The wheels look really good in that colour. When you get the final tune done will you be driving it back? I'll never forget driving back to Edmonton after Cam tuned my car to 507 awhp. How much power do you expect make with those turbos? I'm looking forward to seeing your dyno sheets.

Anthony looks happy where he is. I miss having him live close by so I can watch him do magic on cars and help me and my limited car knowledge build mine. I guess he'll have to see the car at the last stages :-( I'll be juggling 2 GTRs in my garage in a month or so to drop 2 trannys and swap clutches.... I want to keep the nismo twin out of the one I'm selling and put it in the replacement car. It's gonna be a drunk fest at my house for those days. I wouldn't be doing this if it wasn't for the $2300 worth of clutch components I don't want to buy again when it won't affect the selling price anyways.

At the rate the snow is melting I wont get the final tune on the motor till late May or early June, you better believe I will be driving the car back once the final tune is done. I'm just looking at a reliable/solid 500HP to the wheels, nothing too crazy for this guy. The turbos are good for around 800, but I wont be going anywhere near that.

Why dont you part out the GTR you are wanting to sell?? Would you not make more money that way? Or you just want to get rid of it quickly??

[tokes]

Looks gorgeous dude. The Silver GTR's from Edmonton are always the most badass

You'll have to take me for a ride in it in the summer, we can see how your GT-RS turbos compare to my GT2860R-5's
