    Default New Ride: RB28 T-78 Skyline GTR

    Not much of a project seeing as everything is almost done which is why I posted the car here instead of the project forum. I figured you all might enjoy this anyway. It landed about a month ago. It landed in a non running condition so I took it to RCTS to have them getting it running and tuned up for this season. I did have the car dyno tuned, but the coilpacks were toast. I've since replaced them with brand new oem ones and have been instructed to wait for warmer weather to retune and try for higher numbers.

    Only things I have changed so far is add the HKS AFK as the car is already using HKS Vpro. I also swapped in new coilpacks thanks to Allan. I'll have a complete mod list when I get the rest of my build list translated. I might swap the wheels and seats, other than that I can't think of much else that needs changing.

    Under the hood (with more to come):
    Trust T-78 turbo kit
    2.8 stroker w/Nismo Rod and bearing set
    Exhaust Wrap
    Nismo oil Pump
    HKS V-PRO v3.25 with upgraded firmware and AFK
    SARD fuel pressure regulator
    SARD 650cc Injectors
    Tomei Intake Cam 272
    Head Overhaul
    Cylinder head decked
    Exhaust manifold port
    Valves cleaned polished
    New Valve seats
    Metal headgasket
    Manifold gasket kit
    Valve guides
    NGK racing plugs
    Carbon Fibre Hood
    Oil catch can
    Strut brace
    Oil filter relocation
    Intake manifold port/polish
    Aluminum Radiator
    4" Trust intercooler
    Twin plate clutch? Not sure of make at the moment

    Interior:
    Recaro Confetti seats
    Nismo shift knob
    Apexi boost, oil temp gauges
    Personal Steering wheel w/ Hicas Hub
    Nismo 320km/hr Speedo
    Cup holders
    GReddy Profec B II electronic boost controller

    Handling/braking
    HKS Coilovers
    Ceramic pads
    Enkei RPF1 17x9.5 wheels

    I sold the last GTR last spring and sold the R6 last fall right before winter.

    The amount of boost off the line was controlled by how high the revs were when the clutch was dropped thus, the "lag" was determined by the driver.
