Yes you can "Make it fit"... See below, this setup cost me $400 and standard GTR plenums are capable of flowing 1000HP all day... Cheers, Trev This is the plenum in its early stages, its MUCH prettyier now

Dave your alive! Allthough he has used these pistons in a RB30, did it have a RB25 head? If you dont mind me asking, can you PM me you engine builders number? I just need to talk to someone who has used these pistons. P.S Are you in for this friday? Cheers dave, Trev

Ok All, Cut-off date is this coming FRIDAY (19th of March) if you are unavialable to make this buy then you will have to buy individualy. Please respond ASAP, the AUD vs USD has changed heapes since my last post and i have to advise of any new price changes. (If there is any, this will be determined, by the amount of people that buy, rates, shipping cost etc...) For all that can make this date you must Have the money Xferd over by friday the latest. please send me a email with the following details: NAME: ADDRESS: STATE: POST CODE: CONTACT NUMBER: WISECO KIT NUMBER YOU REQUIER: On thursday i will post the final price for all involved in the group buy. Cheers, Trev

They break & bend everything when the belt goes... QuickR33Melb: All RB motors are renound for exhaust studs/bolts to break off, and for the manifold to come loose on the head. However for a mechanic to take 6 hours!! to replace a exhaust gasket! thats a worry. 3 hour job MAX! $50 gasket, and a couple a hundred for labour would be all i would pay.

Il keep in touch clint... Cheers, Trev

Around 2 weeks...And just for piece of mind, i track the parcel a week after it has left just to be sure everything is on track. (And notify you guys) If Dave is happy to wait around until your ready, thats fine by me...? Perhapes you guys can work a date out, and get back to me. Cheers, Trev

If its the timing belt, you wont notice any performance diffrence until the belt snaps. Then its too late. Kiss your 24 valves & 6 pistons goodbye!

Hi Inasnt, Havent seen you for a while!? Naa cant get rods just yet, I might organise a group buy of Pauter Rods later on this month though... so i will keep you posted. Also i will be organising this group to end on friday. only Dave has responded so far, if theres anyone else drop me a email. Cheers, Trev

Ok, So far we have 3 people, dont we? SkylineDave = K578M865 $1000 Mesmer = K578M865??? (Or not involved anymore?) $1000 Mesmers freind SR20 Kit = K557M865 $950 If you guys are definate, please send me a email to [email protected] with the following details: Name: Address: State: Post Code: Contact number: Kit Number Requierd: I want to try and organise the cut-off date for end of this week (Friday) if possable. Cheers, Trev

Mesmer, SR20 (K557M865) Pistons are $950 (Inc shipping) Let me know if you and your freind are going to order and we can work it all out. Cheers, Trev

No probs miikee.... drop me a email when your ready [email protected]

Hi Mesmer, If your cylinders are in good shape and only need a light hone then get the K578M865 Kit (.020 Oversize), this will get you as close to the 8.4:1 mark as possable. Then machine the deck (Top) of your block, and take a little off the bottem of the head. Not only will this ensure that you will get a perfect head/block seal, but you will get your CR up to around 8.6:1 - 8.7:1 I sent a email to my supplier just before regarding the SR20 Kit, (i think its cheaper than 1K) i will inform you of the price for the SR20 kit as soon as i hear from him. Mesmer, if you and your freind buy and Dave i will end this group buy early. (Or whenever is most convienient for you guys) Also guys i can get ANY Wiseco piston, Audi, BMW, Chevy, Clevland, Ford... ANYTHING with a Wiseco Part number. Cheers, Trev

I dont understand why you people are so caught up in running exactly 9.0:1 CR!!?? (No flame intended in this post) 8.5:1 is Perfect, its not low enough to affect off boost drivability. And you have the flexability of running more boost, with less ping. Most people, run jap gaskets to try and achieve a CR of around 8.5:1... And on a RB30 block youl have the displacment to help you out in the lower end of the rev range anyway, not to mention the GTT head to make it flow like crazy aswell. Holden VL Turbos (Single over head cam, RB30) From Factory run a CR of 7.9:1 Just thought i would throw that in to bring some perspective to my argument. I will prove off boost performace when my RB30/25 is finsihed in a few weeks. (Dyno printout)

No problems Stolen....contact me when you need a set. So Dave do we have 2 people? (Yourself & this other guy on calais turbo?) Or isnt he definate? Cheers, Trev

Come on 1 more, then we can get this show on the road..

Thats right dave, it depends what you want. So do i have Dave definatly buying... what about stolen?? are you in for a set? let me know. cheers, Trev

FYI: If you are re-building a RB25 or RB30/25, the piston kit you requier is K578M87. This will give you a CR of around 8.0:1 - 8.5:1 If you still need higher comp you can deck your block, or the bottem of your head. Cheers, Trev

Is the motor coming out? if the motor is comeing out then its worth while doing. All these parts you have bought are bolt-ons, and you can get away with installing all of those parts without pulling the motor out. These are the best price you will get in aus, there still $150 cheaper than the cheapest place i could find in aus. (Thats if you buy a single set) And a $250 saving for the group buy. I sell these pistons to engine worksops. And they are still much cheaper than any trade price all of them have heard of. I dont think i will be doing this next month, its rather stressful and time consuming. If you want a set of forgies, now is the time.

Sure Dave, I will set a cutoff date for the group buy 4 weeks from now. If your still intrested in a single purchase i will get in touch with you. (The way the Aussie dollar is trading, you might get it @ 1K anyways, but we will see what happens within the next month) Stolen... You dont need these. The only time you would buy these are if you are planning to run some big HP (Lots of boost 19PSI +) application, or doing a serious motor rebuild. You wouldnt "install" them for the sake of it, as there is no direct performance increase from doing so. The cost for a mechanic to rebuild your bottemend would be in the 3K (Labor) area for him to take your motor out install forgies and put it back together properly. (Machining costs, bearings, lineing rings & seals, headgaskets etc) drop me a line when you blow it up!

Hi Guys, This is really simple, Group order for RB forged pistons. 1 Piston kit = $1100 (Shipping Included) 3 or more = $1000 (Shipping Included) Heres a link to the Wiseco Catalog: http://www.wiseco.com/PDFcatalogs/sc-niss.pdf Also, all piston kits are Teflon coated (Worth $200) for Free. They include: Gudgeon pins, rings & seals, Clips. everything you need. Orders will take a couple of weeks to arrive, (As they come from US). So far i have sold 1 kit on this forum (il see if i can get him to vouch for me), and over 12 kits privatly. If you are intrested, please email me the KIT number you need, (from the wiseco catalog) and your details. Cheers, Trev. [email protected]

By the way i got my pivot ball from UAS (www.nismo.com.au) $55 This should do it? Cheers, Trev

Hi Guys, Just a quick question, I understand the factory Pivot balls break fairly easy in the R33 S1s, especialy with heavy clutches. I am going to be running a triple plate OS Giken, should i be looking at changing the Fork as well? Has anyone had one of these Break? If you have had them break what did you replace it with? Where from & how much? Cheers, Trev.

VL Turbos run 7.9:1 And they are responsive enough off boost.

8.5:1 is a good round fiure. Low enough to run big boost, and high enough for good off boost performance.

Hi Jay, First of all, i wrong to post with out first validating the information that i was givin, by a fairly reputable performance workshop here in vic. but anyhow... I was told that these pistons would raise the compression ratio to around 8.5:1 with the RB25/30 build, but its says on Wisecos catalog "SKYLINE RB30 GTR (w/DOHC RB25DET CYLINDER HEAD)" CR = 7.0:1 To me these sound like stock RB30DET Pistons? Standard RB30DET (single over head cam, 12 valve head) run a CR of 7.9:1 and with the 63CC RB25 cumbustion chamber, that would push compression ratio even lower. If anyone could make heads or tails of this that would be greate. heres the catalog: http://www.wiseco.com/PDFcatalogs/sc-niss.pdf Cheers Trev P.S by the way, i can get all pistons on this list.
