Harman Motive New Parts Released: Downpipes, Intake Piping and More

2009年8月11日

hm-gtr-icpk-001

Harman Motive have just dropped their latest press release with their new parts lineup for the 2009 and later Nissan GT-R including full details, results and pricing. It’s refreshing to have all in one place so thanks to Harman Motive for the effort on their part.

First up, and picture above installed, is the Harman Motive Intercooler Piping Kit – aka the HM-GTR-ICPK – it’s a full kit of polished alloy piping to replace your standard garden variety, flexible rubber items. The piping increases pipe diameter by 3/4″ to 2 3/4″. The internal surface helps to smooth airflow and provide a more consistent high velocity air intake charge. They fit up to all the standard sensors and even your standard BOVs.

As you can see in the dyno chart above, the full intake system (HM-GTR-ICPK plus the HM-R35-CAI cold air intake) produced a decent gain in horsepower and torque from the mid range up. The Intercooler Piping Kit alone retails at the $1,395 mark but the kit together with the CAI in a package is $2044. All made in the USA.

Next up are the HM-GTR-DPK Catless Downpipes for Nissan GT-R. These lower exhaust restriction significantly by ditching the primary cats. Made from stainless steel they’re designed to be completely direct fit replacements. Also made in the USA they come in at $1,195 a set.

Thanks to Mike @ GT-RR.com for the heads up.

PPG Full Gear Set for Nissan GT-R Released

2009年8月06日

ppg-full-upgrade-001

There are many options on strengthening the GT-R’s gearbox coming to market these days but none so mind blowing as the full gear set we just laid eyes on from Pfitzner Performance Gearboxes (PPG) out of Australia. The full first through sixth gear upgrade is manufactured from high-carbon steel, CNC’d to PPG’s specs which increase gear contact area by up to 40% (first gear). Combine the superior materials used with the heat treating process and the gears are up to twice as strong as standard.

These should suit the high power street GT-R to around the 700 – 900 hp (engine) range.

Head on over to GT-RR.com for the details on pricing and availability.

Thanks to Mike @ GT-RR for the heads up.

TRUST GReddy T6 Turbo Kit in Development for Nissan GT-R

2009年6月11日

trust-turbo-kit-001

Well given the right amount of time this was bound to happen. Trust are quite far along the development of their brand new low mount twin TD06SH turbo kit for the Nissan R35 GT-R. Thanks to Garage Saurus we’re seeing these up close and personal photos of the kit fitted to the Trust development GT-R.

The kit will feature a brand new original stainless manifold design which, as we said, tucks the GReddy TD06SH-20G turbos up nicely in a low mount configuration. This replaces the concept of the manifold combined with the turbo exhaust housing which could allow a variety of other turbos to be fitted – provided the size constraints are met. There’s twin external wastegates featured in the kit as well as a set of matching stainless flexible dump pipes.

According to GT-RR.com the kit should be good for about 880hp and be available in a matter of months. Of course as a GReddy / Trust USA and Japan distributor you can rely on the GT-RR guys to get your name down in line for one of these kits and you can find out more about that at the link below.

GT-RR has teamed up with Japanese carbon parts manufacturer Carbon Dry Japan to launch their extensive range of Nissan GT-R parts globally. Carbon Dry Japan is already known for producing parts for other tuners such as Esprit for whom they manufacture Esprit Dry Carbon GT Wing 262 and front grilles. Having just been launched in Japan, GT-RR has already setup a partnership with the company to distribute globally and so, available now, is the full range of parts from aero to interior including:

Aero Parts

  • Dry Carbon Aero Hood
  • Dry Carbon Rear Wing
  • Dry Carbon Side Skirts
  • Dry Carbon Front Canards
  • Dry Carbon Rear Underspoiler w/optional F1 LED Tail light
  • Dry Carbon Rear Overfenders
  • Dry Carbon Front Lip Spoiler

Moving on to the interior we have:

  • Dry Carbon Console Surround
  • Dry Carbon Aircon Outlet Surrounds
  • Dry Carbon Shifter Center Surround
  • Dry Carbon Cup Holders

The quality of Carbon Dry parts has to be seen in person to fully appreciate. I checked out the Esprit parts recently and was impressed with what I saw. I think for the price you’d have pay for these items that’s something you might want to do before you make the jump.

For full photos of everything listed up there and pricing, hit up the link to the Carbon Dry Japan category over at GT-RR.

Okada Project Plasma Direct Coils for Nissan R35 GT-R

2009年4月18日

okd-coils-002

Okada Projects (OKD) has launched their Plasma Direct coil upgrades for the VR38DETT this week. The direct fit upgrade coil pack provides stronger spark under a wider range of conditions versus the OE coils. They should be the first stop for an upgrade for those noticing ignition issues under high boost. The Plasma Direct technology offers a 4x spark strength increase which should net you a gain in power and torque across the rev range, especially, again, for cars running more boost than standard.

OKD has been supplying coil packs to some serious competitive racing teams in Japan for some time, big names like M-Speed’s time attack R34 GT-R, Midori Seibi Center’s time attack R34 GT-R and Garage Saurus’ drag and time attack R32 GT-Rs.

These retail for around 155,000 yen in Japan but you can pick them up for just $1,395 from you local GT-R parts dealer, GT-RR.
