Forged Performance: GTR Track Prep Upgrades

Discussion in 'Meetups & Events' started by Chadbee@Forged, May 4, 2011.

  1. We wanted to share with you some terrific upgrades we are making to a customer's track bound GT-R. This particular GT-R was already heavily modified when it arrived and included a Switzer P800 Turbo Kit and JRZ RS Pro Coilovers. Because the customer lives in Florida and tracks quite frequently in some of the hottest environments in the country he looked to Forged's track proven expertise and guidance in making his GT-R run cool and strong throughout the hot summer months. The cooling system of the GT-R is unique, in that many different systems are interrelated so it's not just a matter of bolting on traditional cooling mods but you must also look at the big picture with respect to how all of these parts work together and the sources of all of this heat. It's often not as obvious as you would think.

    With this goal in mind we are adding:

    -Forged Performance Sway Bar Set and racing end links
    -Willall Racing Front Differential Cooler
    -Willall Racing Rear Differential Cooler
    -HKS Transmission Cooler
    -HKS Intercooler Kit With Carbon Ducting
    -OS Giken Rear Diff
    -Forged Performance Spec Road Race ECU Calibration

    Very shortly we'll be adding fluids and should be ready for final quality checks and dyno tuning!

    Why the pretzel shape in the exhaust pipes?

    Just figured a straight shot from the Y to each exit with maybe a smaller canister would have been a good compromise.

    Not always....the smaller overall area of the canister, the less sound suppression in most cases.
