  1. WOW, everybody thought I was crazy, All this time smellin stinky fords and no one noticed. Yeah I noticed it a while back, i find its pretty much every new ford i drive behind, I thought the egg smell comes along when ur cat is rooted?
  2. ok..... so wots a better choice, and R33 or R32 and why?
  3. Hey thanks for that, even thinking about mini tubs i can get 245s out the back, but i would like something i little wider for slicks. Hyperdrive....... where bouts r they in perth?
  4. yeah there are no problems there, brakes slotted, steel lines, upgraded booster, and gone to twin pistons cals, Koni strusts, koni suspension, king sprins, 2" lower, nolaphane? bush kits through out, aswell as panard rod, sway bars and two strut braces. sooo i think suspension and brakes are sorted plus when i get a pair of 19" rims, i'll upgrade rotor size, so you are thinking 18Gs for cams, turbos after the half cut? or including the half cut? 8gs for a h/c, sorry for sounding stupid, but i got now idea atm an RB part prices.
  5. Yeah I had a look at the supra motors, and if i were to use one i'd use the TT version, the problem is im looking at alot more custom work to fit the supra motor, but i have to look alot more into, The RB motor fit alot better due to the VL K-frame, plus i'd prefer the skyline motor.
  6. really, only 20, cool, not bad then. So does anyone here know any good companies in perth to buy stuff off?
  7. as far as I know u can piggyback both ECUs, leave the VS on inplace to look after the odds and ends, and let the othe ecu look after the motor, yes i do know some, looking at around 400 bucks i have left myself 24gs to do the v6 twin turbo, so that will go a long long way on a rb26 conversion for wot i want. rb25; Touqe doesnt worry me, the more the better, HELL FUN. i was going to get a mountain of tq anyway from the V6 so an upgrade rb26 will be pretty close to the same. with the comment bad earlier with needing an extra 50kw to match a GTR on the 1/4 would i gain that extra 50kw atw by not having the AWD?
  8. fuel system will be after marker, due to the standard V6 being way out of ballpark, I will be looking at installing the turbos while its out the motor, once motor is installed its of to get a custom dump pipe and exhaust made up. What else would it cost for bigger turbos, apart from the turbos? Next one is, wot sort of exhaust does a 400kw RB26 need?
  9. Yeah I suppose your right, was'nt really think about have two turbos, but at the same Time i did expect the weight of the vs to increase alot if i was going to keep the v6 with twin turbo. Yeah u pretty much have the suspension figured out, King springs, koni, getting it done after the engine and body kit goes on so we can get the right ride height. plus slicks at the drags. wot do u guys think it is worth buying off the self parts for turbos and manifolds to fuel system and the sort to get the rb26 up to 400kw? And how much? Most of the install work I will do myself while the engine is out, ie, fuel system and turbo work. I'll leave cams up to an expert.

  11. COME on ppl, need some help here, really want ur input here guys
  12. thanks for the replies, last time i checked a VS was around 1450kg stock. not uch weight has been added. But the Ecotech V6 is about 170kgs whicch is bloody heavy, so by pulling out the v6 and putting in the rb26 and gona get some weight back. But tell me if im wrong, but dont r33 float around the 1400kg mark? Yeah, dont really want to go the RB30, they have been done to the death with commodores, great motor but i want something i little different thats where an rb26 comes in handy. Power level, well i was going to be rebuilding the motor with a 4.2Lstroker, forgies... blah blah blah. was aiming for a very doable 450rwhp+ A guy over in queensland with a very close setup to wot i was going to get is pulling 560rwhp at 21psi and getting a 10.5 1/4. I was originally going for low 10s. Now im looking at an RB26 im not so much eager for 10s, i'd be very happy with with close to 400kw, but im not sure wot u have to do to get to the 400kw mark... power not so important because i dont know wot power levels = a good 1/4, but if i was in the low 12s Id be very happy man. even more happier to shit on some V8s. even the odd skyline
  13. umm... tell me if im wrong but... different gearing, different touqe and a different power curve, different cars make the power at different rpm, cant compare cars guys, ones a v8 family car (lets face it) and the other is designed to get to the 400m as fast as possible. two cars designed for different reason. PS, I love my holdens, but motor is full of BS. BUt yeah, stick the wot the guy asked For. Wots the stock RWHP of a R33 GTS
  14. Well just like to say hey, cause its my 1st post here, but i'll get straight to the point. In shortI own a Holden commodore V6, and i was originally going to rebuild the motor and have twin GT30s installed and float aorund the 400rwhp mark. But i have been thinking quite seriously for a while about installing an RB series motor into the VS. SO ok here wot I basical know so far. Yes it will fit. The VL K-frame bolts straight into a VS, 2ndly an rb25 and 26 will fit the VL Kframe, so i got that part sorted. The stuff i want to know is.... wots better and why between the 25 and 26. I know the Rb26 is a far more better engine. but wot I want to know, is it worth the extra 3000 to 4000 for a GTR half cut when i will be wanting to up the power of either RB series motor. All im wanting to do as far as modding the RB motors are manifolds if needed, turbo/s cams and fuel sytem, depending on price maybe do the whole head. OK... so wot are your thoughts? and wot advise do you have. P.S. dont waste ur time replying with any holden bashing coments, cause i dont care for them. :bs!: thanks guys
