First upgrades to my new Pulsar Gti-R! (baby GTR)

Bendpak marketing department is slipping. They need to sponsor this man and send a lift and tire machine

[@Jake_Hamlin]

Tire machines are pretty cheap, the Lift would be enough. I wonder who Kyle from Boostedbois contacted for his?

[@petescarport]

@@Jake_Hamlin unfortunately I think he has too little subs. He's killing it, but most bendpak sponsors have a mil subs. They most likely skip anything not massive

[@Jake_Hamlin]

@@petescarport stupid really considering not many drifters have Bendpak sponsorship because they're not as large as drag racers... Taylor probably has a different subscribership compared to someone like Kyle who's subs will definitely overlap likes of Cleetus. Pretty sure Kyle reached out rather than getting an offer too. Actually theres a few companies Taylor should really be reaching out to like Texas pride (if he hasnt already) because his subscriber numbers are getting up there, considerably more than PFI?

Yeah, I said the same thing about turbocharging my stock JDM D15B VTEC swapped EJ8 Civic coupe...now it has a fully built LSVTEC turbo and about $15k under the hood and makes 709 whp and runs 9s...and I'm STILL looking for ways to make more power.

Taylor is probably the most underrated automotive youtuber out there. To me he is the most relatable and he really tries his best to put the best Content out there and I can really tell how hard he's working since he went full time youtuber! I think he's deserving of well over 600k subs so I say let's try to get him over 600k subscribers by Christmas Day!

[@PullingWrenches]

596K, been year and a half but hes getting there haha probably hit it and dropped and hit and dropped, seems like KZbin purges subs from channels every so often. This is the first video of his I've watched, not bad.

I'm in Aus, but I remember these things absolutely blitzing the GTR's, V8 Commodores and Torana's back int the early 2010's. Light and fast, not the best lookers but the awd and stout turbo 4cyl was a weapon back in the day. This Channel really is living my teens by proxy and I love it.

You need to look into the gearbox bracing for these cars, they break very easily... Look at Stracher Motorsport on Facebook

[@skyrunner237]

Also the gearset as on my brothers 3rd liked to let go

@@skyrunner237 The gears let go because the gearbox casing flexes. The Stracher motorsport kit aims to reduce that, as even with aftermarket gears, stripping them is still common because of case flex without the brace.

I'm assuming you guys own GTiRs yourself? I've had mine for 3 years pushing 230awkw without an issue. Others have not been so lucky. All depends

[@thelazypirate5997]

@@memeari123 thats only ~310bhp though, but yes. Been in and around the community for a decade now, spaz longer. Theres OEM sr20 FWD gearboxes you can throw 800hp through, but nissan never delivered an awd option that wasn't weak/inferior by design sadly. But also if you're using it on the dirt its not as big of an issue either, more of an issue with traction.

[@jestronixhanderson9898]

Kyle Walker - that would have moved , I ran about 180atw and it was violent and insulted a lot of cars in the early 2000s , these cars were for their day incredible. Gboxs were based on how you treated them , I never dumped on stickies and mostly rolled into the power in second :). In 1990 driving one of these would have been insane ! Nothing factory in the hatch world was near this, maybe the delta.

[@tonymattisson6158]

An amazing car you have there Taylor! For being the weight it has and AWD. It's pretty good IMO. I love driving AWD and especially during the winter months here in Sweden. The grip you can get is crazy on snow roads. I had an Audi S4 1992 with an 2.2L 5-cylinder turbo engine in it. It had coilovers and a tuned ECU and K&N filter in the original intake box and also a mod that you delete a restriction in the last muffler. This is the full stage before going to do things like cylinder head work and bigger turbo. My setup where around 300hp. Just enough for me to have a lot of fun driving it. The Quattro system in Audis is just amazing from this era. I saw the night driving and you must do like a WRC light high beam setup on it. There are so great LED and Xenon options today. A setup with 3 round LED lights with the center one with going far away and the 2 sides going wide would be awesome IMO. See if you can find the cover and basicly the holder for the lights for your GTi-R. Think in a rally shop of some kind it can be find or a used one. The benefit would be that you can connect it easly and take it off as well with a quick connect setup. Other options would be to rebuild an original headlight to LED with pencil beam spread of light. Either way you keep the original look when you want to and for some fun driving at night with awesome light and just take the 3 piece extra lights setup off from the quick connect.

[@bradlong7651]

Hey Taylor, look up the "one bar loop" it's a common vacuum line routing trick for these cars for them to make a bar (15ish psi) of boost. I did it on mine when I had a GTI-R and it definitely woke it up a bit.

GTIRs used to be SO common in the UK, awesome little cars, but now they're rare as hell as they've all rusted away. They used to cost £3500 for a tidy one back in the day too, now they're rare and not cheap. Then again Cefiros were even cheaper, but always pretty rare. And now mega rare. I can't even think of the last time I saw a Cefiro over here...

[@canyouopopop3012]

Damn, i need me a JDM space

My tuner told me the key to manual boost controllers is to blow through them before you install, adjust until you can't blow through and then back it off a tiny bit. That should give you a boost increase and a base line

My question Taylor is why? The wheels that were on it suited it!! Looked great 😂😂😂

[@Goldfish999999999999]

If you disconnect the little circlip from the end of the actuator rod were it joins the wastegate flap and adjust the rod to make it shorter this will also add boost (shorter = more boost).

[@BreadManNoWheat]

New lighting is looking GOOD

[@ajherman]

I'm guessing the reason they pulled the front strut bar off is that they tighten up the front suspension and induce understeer. Having nothing up there and a stiffer rear end will make the car more neutral or even oversteer prone. On an AWD car that's prone to understeer to begin with, this can be even more of a factor.

[@moobist]

I really liked the first set you tried on in my opinion they really suited the car

[@garnetheron4885]

I like that you put them on there without the spacer

[@Nate6133]

Build your own boost controller, when you buy them they never work properly, always had horrible luck with those. I made one with some npt fittings a hollowed out nylon plug that I tapped and a vacuum cleaner spring with a ball bearing and a bolt through the nylon plug. Set the boost with a coolant pressure tester and boom consistent boost all the time. And you can easily adjust it.

[@tenmillionvolts]

There were so many of those Gtir and cefiros here in NZ during the 90s. Everyone worked them hard. Then the air flow sensors died in them so often that most people gave up

[@joshuanicolai4776]

That gauge measures in millimeters of mercury Hg is the atomic symbol for mercurt. It's a measure of pressure that users a bowl of mercury with a long glass tube and the mercury is in the tube and pressure forces more mercury up the tube which has mm marks on it this measuring in mm of mercury.

[@NoClassic]

Love the gti-r. The t28 can make surprising power and spools so well for older tech. Unless you are going to throw a standalone one it later, you should consider one of the blow through MAF conversions with a larger diameter housing. The factory one is so restrictive.
