Whats the Turbo on a Type R ........
good for its a Version 6? Seriously thinking of a GTR 33 and getting a 34 when i can afford one. On the other hand do i try and get some decent power out of my Scoob. I really dont want to start changing Turbos though.

Si are you on the original engine still ?
I have been reading good things about the 2.3 conversion or if you want to know about a 2.5 conversion have a talk with Simb he will be able to enlighten you on the original strenghs as well as he has looked right through all the areas
I know that's not what you asked but it's interesting stuff never the less.
In all this time this is the very first time I have heard you talk about power... I need to go and have a sit down here

There is a skyline just round the corner from you Simon. Why dont you see if the guy will take you out for a spin. Might be all it takes to help you one way or the other?
When you get bored of that, come see me and we can talk money on one of my cars
