Let me start off by introducing myself. My name is Mark. I am 23 yrs old. I live in Arizona. I know i know. Im a long way from home. But i anyone can help me with this build, its you guys. Also, i screwed up my user name. Was suppose to be "mr.r32" , but didnt notice it til it was to late -_-. but anyway. I am a proud owner of a 93 GTST. And have been for 2 years now. And happy with her. Been through alot, her and i. From a Hit and Run within 3 weeks of getting it to blowing up the gearbox. I am on skylineownersusa as "mr.r32" My car has the stock RB20DET in it and i love the motor. Ive been wanting do to the RB24 for alittle while now, Plus there was a yellow S15 that had one and it sounded AWESOME!! I like the fact that it will still look like an rb20. I do have the people that til me to put a rb25 in it. But i figure if i spend 2500 on the swap, ill buy a ecu and turbo and itll be faster than a rb25. As far as my car. It still has the stock turbo. Running 14lbs. Front mount intercooler. 3in downpipe test pipe and cat back. It suppose to have a aftermarket clutch that the guy put in it before i bought it but i dunno. My car just turned 200,000km and it still runs strong. Hopefully i am welcome here. I will be asking LOTS and LOTS of question. Thanks for reading and enjoy! Now for the motor questions
Some im about to start my RB24 build. Im planning on running a stock rb26dett crank. Just a couple questions:
How well do stock rb26 rods hold up?
How do you guys like eagle rods? Have any of you ran em? My part number im looking at is CRS4783N3D
Whats a good compression ratio for it? I know turbo motors don't like alot of compression unlike N/A cars.
Also If you guys know the stock rod length on a RB20, let me know.
Whats a good turbo to run? I was told a 35R turbo would be the way to go.
On a unrelated topic, What kind of diff does a R32 gtst have, I was hearing its a r200 or something, and its decently strong. And whats a good LSD.
More to come, cant think of anymore. Im writing alot of things down and learning. And doing research. Any input on the build would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
