Haven't posted in a while. Just haven't had motivation to work on any of my cars for some reason. nitrous looks like a no go sadly. Just can't seem to find a supplier of it down south in nz sadly. Was really looking forward to ruining it Looking at either meth or LPG injection as a added boost now. still waiting on the engineer to finish gate adaptors haha. I didget the R32 GTR nismo 3" exhaustin the other day. Just need to ship the car down to the workshop to get front half of exhaust done

Definaly some one worth keeping on the Xmas card list! so update for any one who cares or needs something to read while on the throne. gearbox is in. Not happy with final resting place of drive shaft impregnation tho. Only about a inch, and I'm curious if the TD bell housing fits on a RB gearbox? Might fix my gear ratios? drivers side engine mount isn't tall enough. Gearbox is flat, and pulling drivers side of motor off the mount by about 10-15mm going to need bigger mounts. (This will also fix next problem.) sump. F*** A C***...... I can't read a ruler.sump hits the drivers side of steering rack. Bigger engine mount will fix this issue. steering UJ at lower of steering Colom. Hits starter motor...... worry about that later just for a giggle. wiring. There's stuff every we're lol. Not a single bad as building a new RB loom. But just a little. pipes. The fella that did my braided power steering lines obviously didn't try to connect the hose for res to pump low pressure. The pipe is like 1/16th to small. And has no stretch. Yay. clutch. I see a major issue here, when, and not if, I mean when this exceedy HD 4x4 clutch explodes. The engine cross member has to be unbolted and dropped 4-6" to allow the gearbox to come of force due to firewall distances. Not happy. But nothing I can do. Thats about it lol. I am getting closer to doing a little wright up on how to do this conversion lol. Not many photos from today, didn't want to feel lazy on my iPad all day. so instead here is a few snaps of the parts truck getting removed from my property lol.

Just got a call from a distant mate. He bought a dyno. Guess who's doesn't have to pay to do pulls now

Ooooooooooo guess what ladies.

I did a thing. And I'm blaming you single handedly.

I am still seriously debating putting turbo in normal place or in front of the motor

Any one here watch house of muscle ? go watch episode ten on YouTbe..... yummy.... so off came the sump that's the poor engineers problem now. Motor sitts so low in the engine bay I fear lowering I think as the sump is close to the ground. Future issues. Blahhhhh how ever. Everything is just held in with rope to get a idea In my head. But what do y'all think of this?

BAHAHAHAHAHA I just lost my toys reading that ! The whole doing on pape bit is the part that make sure me giggle the most. (Not sure if you have see no my other post about a RB in a 4x4 D21 Navara but I feel you need to finding it ) gear ratio: I don't know. Is the simple answer. I have the factory RB20de Manual diff in there. I don't even know I feel that will handle the torque increase. Navara td box has very similar ratio to the 4x4 one. So with 600+ NM we're expecting a very quick 0-100 time. After that she won't have the revs to go past 130 ( I imagine.) got another gearbox to regear with 20det internals tho so it will be a wing and a miss. PROGRESS!!!! new ( cough cough 400km) motor got dropped in. Annnnnnd turbo is too big ( wish some one would say that to me some nights ) off to the engineers my manifold goes. 2 options turbo mounted in front of the motor with 2" custom manifold feeding it. OR very high top mount. Issue there is i loose my strut brace and that's is a no no. fiber glass 25mm guards on the way. fiber glass GTR front bumper on the way. oil relocation kit on the way. nitrous 6 week away.

I broke my truck again FFS. All three spare altinators failed within 12 hours ;( on a side note how sick is this, got a call from the land of drop bears. NOS is 8 weeks ago as they ran out of stock ;(. but.

So I hit a snag. Shit came up had to put this build on hold blah blah blah...... just got back from a 600km venture to pick up ANOTHER TD27T 4000k on it. In the mail from Auckland is a A/R .50 with a AR.63 compressor. T3t4, external 38mm gate, AND WAIT FOR IT. coming from some were in the land of OI the dingo ate my baby, is a 10lb nitrous kit and all the shit to hook it up

Iv always had ideas about putting a RS motor into a 32 coupe. Reckon it would be pre out of it.

I have always loved those busses!

I love this's hit haha im not sure if you were pulling the piss... but. Factory kingswood rotor Mazda roadpacer. Lets put a 13b into a bus?

I hate the run of the mill builds haha iv done this one before but want to do I think a lot better this time around. And the 33 has been in my garage for like 6 weeks and I haven't even driven it lol

Some one ask me what a RB20e looks like in a WD21 So. As some people have been following I started my "some one ask me what a TD27T looks like in a r32" Post now to take a step back and go full retard. two years ago I built a R33 on a D21 solid beam rear chassis. With a 20e. It went nuts. This time. Something different. a WD21 terrano. Manual. 20ET with the body cut down to a ute. the aim is to finish by February 2018 and take it to the big river run in ashburton NZ. so my question is. What turbo do I use!? Heres a snap of my old one.
