Whifbitz R35 GTR

Back to the dyno again to test out our new Whifbitz R35 GTR stage 3 cams(stage 1 and 2 to follow soon). The car made plenty of power, making 1012bhp on 50% pump fuel/E85 mix at 1.7 bar boost, the GTX3071 turbos were well and truly maxed out, they wouldn’t make any more boost. We […]

Update time, the suspension is all sorted now, after we lowered it we couldn’t get the suspension geometry back to factory spec so we fitted Top Secret adjustable rear lower arms and toe rods along with Superpro adjustable front upper arm bushes. We now have plenty of adjustability to set the geometry as Nissan intended […]

And a little Xmas treat for myself and the car – a load of carbon bits have just arrived! Carbon Wald style rear spoiler, Wald style boot lid, Zele style side skirts, Zele style rear apron, side vents and bonnet vents, hopefully should make the car look more hardcore!

Fuel flex sensor fitted and all plumbed in with new E85 compatible fittings getting ready for some extra bhp with the E85! And the engine is all back together with inlet manifold and vvt covers freshly powder coated in shiny chrome finish.

We spent yesterday afternoon removing the Eibach springs and fitting a set of KW Sleeve Coilover Kit to the Whifbitz GTR. I’ll post some more pictures of the car when fitted as it should be sitting a tad lower now.

We are also testing out our soon to be released range of GTR camshafts too, fitting and testing them on our own demo car right now with results to come soon.

Engine is nearly back together now, nice new coat of paint for the cam covers. And powder coated in chrome for the vvt covers.

My new wheels have arrived, sexy or what. 360forged Mesh8 forged concave forged in 20″. I’ll add some pics of them on the car when they are fitted.  

Some pictures of our titanium exhaust with our titanium tailpipes fitted and Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2, 265 front and 305 on the rear. Cant wait to try them out later in the week, hopefully should provide more grip than the Dunlops I’ve currently got fitted!

I’ve been using the car pretty much on a daily basis for the spring months and every time I get in the car it brings a massive smile to my face! The car is now running one of our new Whifbitz 4″ titanium exhausts, and wow, what a noise it makes now! When I get […]

I needed an oil cooler for our R35 GTR demo car so instead of paying £2300 for an HKS cooler I thought I’d make my own! I bought PWR oil cooler and Mocal gearbox oil pump, one of there new designs which is supposed to be quieter and more powerful than the older version which […]

We dyno’d our R35 GTR a month ago now, mapped by Ryan G of 2 Bar Tuning/Syvecs the car made an easy 866bhp at the hubs on a Dynapak hub dyno with the Syvecs S8 ecu installed. This equates to just under 1000bhp at the flywheel depending on who you believe with driveline losses, that’s […]

Update time, we completed the gearbox rebuild on my car a couple of weeks ago. While the box was apart we fitted a full PPG gearset with billet drop gears along with SVM uprated circlips and the Xtreme Motorsport 18 plate billet clutch. Its now all up and running and after my first test drive […]

Spent a few hours changing the clutch on my GTR today. I went with the Extreme Motorsport 18 plate billet clutch and I must say its a work of art, its looks the business, cant wait to see how it performs.

We recently fitted a pair of Turbosmart Raceport blow off valves, these are definitely the best BOV’s on the market. Small, lightweight, good looking and top quality. More details and pricing on our website here http://www.garagewhifbitz.co.uk/index.php/nissan/gtr/blow-off-valves-bovs.html I also made up 2 aluminium pipes to mount them and gave them a good polish too. Engine bay is […]

I had the bumper off again last week to fit some larger KN air filters, these ones are good for 1300bhp so shouldn’t be a restriction me thinks! Bit of a tight squeeze in there but they just about fit. And some Top Secret bonnet cancellors fitted, dont have to worry about the pedestrian bonnet […]

My car is really starting to take shape now! I fitted a carbon fibre cooling panel courtesy of Knight Racer, thanks Albert, lovely looking product with a great fit. I also fitted my engine oil cooler as my standard one would have bits of the old engine in it! Dont know if you remember but […]

A sound clip of our Whifbitz R35 GTR 4″ exhaust system, more details and up to date prices here

Details of the 4″ stainless steel exhaust with stainless v band flanges and clamps. This system is complete from the downpipes back complete with: Y-pipe 2x 3″ into 4″, you have the option of silenced and unsilenced. Or you can buy both so can have it quiet enough to meet more or less any track […]

Pfitzner Performance Gearbox was one of the first to manufacture this heavy duty helical synchro gearset for the new Nissan R35 GTR. With massive worldwide popularity this direct replacement gearset has proved to be a winner in every application it has been used. From Drag Strip to Hill Climb to World Time Attack it has […]

Dropped the car off today to have the 4″ stainless steel exhaust made. After some discussion with my exhaust manufacturer we decided on a downpipe back system, V-banded and optional silenced y-pipe. So will be quiet enough for track days and for those who want it loud, buy it withou the silenced y-pipe. For those […]

Another small update, fitted another one of my new products to my car today. Whifbitz R35 GTR carbon engine cover, fits and looks superb, please check our website at www.garagewhifbitz.co.uk for more information and prices.

Engine bay is back together at last! I’ve put the standard fuel vapour system back on for the moment, standard plastic header tank as I want to get my alloy one anodised. Also fitted the standard Nissan BOV pipes until I have more time to make some nice alloy pipes up with the Turbosmart BOV’s […]
