I see an RB30 Bosch Alternator in the engine bay
-
That's nothing, a good panel beater can easily pull it back into place. If you're fussy, find a new radiator support. I personally would just pull it all into place add a few more spot welds for strength and spend the change on a better radiator, hoses, FMIC and a Samsonas.

In too deep now ? Hopefully get to race this shit box with confidence after the crank case vent (and better tyres after I destroy this set).

@mlr legit feels like it, with the money spent, could have bought a nice M240i or nearly a M2/3/4

Popped my exhaust back on, so much better! Has a rolled exhaust tip and it's smaller too, no more cut shins! Ordering more fittings off MSCN next week to vent the crank case into the catch can, hopefully that should "solve" the catch can issue. If not, motor is coming out, I'm going to fit a Nitto oil pump and weld on 2x sump fittings.. because made a bad decision, bought a R33 and now paying for it.

I agree, smart move. Spend change on M2 Comp and hookers. -

Americans, they love to keep the brands aligned. -
Engine Rebuild rb26 - arp200 or arp CA625+
Dose Pipe Sutututu replied to sr20dettttt's topic in General Maintenance
ARP2000 done. I run them with 2bar of boost and head hasn't lifted. -
Engine Rebuild rb26 - arp200 or arp CA625+
Dose Pipe Sutututu replied to sr20dettttt's topic in General Maintenance
How much boost/power you planning on? Also they are "reusable" but I personally wouldn't. Sell them to someone that's doing a simple build or a refresh on their motor and get new studs. -

Rb26 NPC twin plate clutch
Dose Pipe Sutututu replied to Giaccovitch's topic in R Series (R30, R31, R32, R33, R34)
I'm still running the standard gearbox, it's an Edward Lees special edition with close to 500k kms on it lol. It's done 1x track day with the new motor and has exploded yet, has done over half a dozen track days with 372kW before the old motor let go. I rarely smash it into 3rd hard, because it grinds every time above 7k rpm, so I need to literally ease it into 3rd when I shift and make sure I'm under 7k rpm. I wonder if you were also running the wrong bearing carrier which caused the throw out bearing to be riding on the pressure plate -
Rb26 NPC twin plate clutch
Dose Pipe Sutututu replied to Giaccovitch's topic in R Series (R30, R31, R32, R33, R34)
I currently run a single 10" NPC clutch too and it's holding 407kW just fine. You may need to adjust the clutch pedal as it might be riding the clutch ever so slightly. In regards to the pedal sinking to the floor, are you still using the factory clutch damper? If so delete that POS ? -
Get a Haltech Elite 2500, all the needed sensors and a Wiring Specialties loom made for the Elite Series Haltech. Load up thr base map and you'll be good to go.

GTX35xx loves big boost, need to send its mum, 2bar+ or go home and leave it to the Australian experts. -

Next question, is it even a genuine Garrett GTX3582? If it's an US home brew junk or a Dimsum special, it's not going to perform. Also it's from America, the data is not even worth the server space.
