hi i'm aiming to get about 280rwkw give or take. I have supporting mods to accommodate this already. are duaglide an upgrade from the stock bearings?

hi guys, i'm building up my rb 25det with gtr rods and arias pistons. I have ben checking out acl for main and big end bearings. They have two types of each duraglide, and race series. I plan on using a gt 3037 and using the car for track and road use. Are duraglide good enough for my level? Also are new guides and a strong bolt set essental? If so where do you recomend getting them from thanks simon.

r31.........what exactly did you get done for the 7k? and your in melb arn't you, where did you get it rebuilt? simon

an safc2 with the sitc ( ignition timing control ) unit is great for people who dont want to do too much to their cars and is an inexpensive way to control your engine.

Thanks guys for the help. Found out from sk that it's the 05u41 part that identify's it as gtr. cheers for all the help. simon

you could try using mild steel pipe from an exhaust place. A cheep can of spray paint and it'll be as good as new simon

thanks craved, no rush... still got a while before the rebuild starts.

thanks guys, do all gtr rods have the same no.s on them..... wrxhoon.. the no.s that are on yours will they be the same on every other set of gtr rods? 4 of the ones i have are 7-1 05U41-2 and 2 have the same no. but a 1 at the end instead of the 2? can any1 help me determine what these are? thanks for the help, simon

craved...thanks man would you be able to pm me the numbers? i have a set of what i'm lead to believe are gtr rods but would love to be sure. thanks simon

no one??

hi guys just a quick question, how can you tell if rods are gtr ones? can be deleted after a few answers

mick, you should think about selling the safc and itc and get a pfc later down the track. Then you have a lot more tuneing options if you decide to say open the engine or slap a bigger turbo on. just a thought, simon

hello michael, always better to have a safe tune. when is the hi-flow coming?

r31... c*nts! i think that i'll go all out. If theyre going to get me on one thing they may as well get me on a few. then the car will become all track. thanks for the help, i'll post back soon as i'm sure i'll need some more guidence. cheers simon

r31- yeah i seem to have no luck when it comes to the boys in blue. Is it pos to get away with a low mounted internally gated urbo or is it nessesary for the power/setup i'm after to have an exernally gated one? i was thinking gt30 or 2835 ProS with the 0.82 exhaust housing as bob suggested. thanks

abo bob..... ive read peoples setups which are similar but was unsure which way to go. thanks for the info cheers for the help! siba33..... yeah think i'm gonna use standard bore pistons all other mods like zorst pfc suspension injectors afm fpr pump etc are already taken care of

hi guys i've just started progressons on rebuilding my engine. I want it to used to the track/road. So about 300rwkw maybe more all day. just a few quick questions: i'm confused on which head gasket to use. reading through the 3037 thread they mentioned o-ringing the block? do i have to change the c/r? Also i planned on using arias forged pistons with gtr rods (preped) but have heard that it is better to use the same brand rods,pistons and rings. Is this true i just have to take the flywheel off and it hops onto the stand to be stripped mods planning to run: arias froged pistons gtr preped rods strong bolt set crank nitrated re-coed block to be sent to with pistons to be balenced blueprinted etc head polished valve springs --not sure?? gready plenum manifold turbo-not sure yet tomei cams sorry about the long thread just need some info cleared up and to know i'm on the right track simon

cubes.........exactly, what else would i mean? (hehe)

alright!!

thanks guys........ so looks like i'll be saving to get nismo injectors and a z32 afm. don't want to risk engine. thanks again fellas

rob... hopefully getting bigger turbo soon and i'm under the impression that i can use a fpr to get a few extra kw's. i have 200rwkw now with pfc standard turbo 10 psi. Can i max injectors and afm and get about 230rwkw with fpr and turbo? will be getting z32 afm and injectors ( i cant afford them yet ) Thanks for the info Plasticstan

hi guys, i tried a search. just a quick question.... is there an fpr that will be easier to fit ( or any benifits ) to the rb25det? sard, malpassi.......etc

yeah i have a bosch 040. i might take it to ice and get it checked out........it pisses me off

hi ben, i also recently did an oil and filter change, and put in petrol from another pump.I always use mobile 8000. my problems started after the oil change i put in castrol R 5w 30, but thats what i have always used.

200 rwkw i have been running at this level for at least a year. why only now is it comming up? faulty sensors? out of tune? i haven't touched the engine except for oil,filter and plugs changes.
