Hi guys,

I have been a long time lurker and figured I would start a thread about my GTR. I am making a few more changes to my car and wanted to share with everyone. Since I never created an original thread on my car I will post up the current mods and then the changes below that.

My plan is to run the car on low boost in NASA Time Trials. I should produce about the same peak power as last year but have a ton more pwr/trq under the curve. Then I can run high boost at 1/2 mile, mile and 1/4 mile events.

 

Only future mods after these are completed is to possibly add a bit more carbon fiber inside the car and have Hanksville hotrods fabricate the rest of my cage for me next winter.

 

Thanks for looking and I hope to meet some of you at future events :)

AAAAARGH!!! I copied and pasted this from another thread I started on another forum and for some reason it spell checked swiss cheese and replaced it with swiss cheese. I tried to go in and use the editor but it would not make the correction. If a mod could go into my thread and make the correction I would greatly appreciate it. If not I will try again later. My apologies to swiss cheese and the community.

 

So in the above thread everytime you see swiss cheese please replace mentally with Switze* :)

I know it. Now I am completely locked out to edit my post. I did check the ADV thread and it did the same thing on his post. So at least it is not something I am doing wrong :lol:

  • 2 weeks later...
  • 4 weeks later...

Quick update;

My car made 950 awhp and 950awtrq at 29 pounds of boost. Still have @ 6 more pounds of boost for the highest setting. What really excites me is that the 950trq was at a little more than 4,000 rpm. Should be wrapping up the tunes later this week and hopefully shipping back to me the middle of next week.

Hope to have a dyno vid to post up in the next few days. Also plan on running the car at TX2K12 so if anyone from the forum sees my car stop by and say hi.

 

Thanks for looking.
