  1. all you need is coilovers, a diff that locks both wheels reliably, and a seat that holds you tight. the rest is not needed. save the money and spend it on tyres and seat time. seat time is what makes you a better driver.. not the sum of the parts listed on the car
  2. stroker RB26 has the worse stroke/rod ratio of any RB.. way to ruin a good motor
  3. parts are GKtech knuckles which Garage7 modified the steering arm to my spec, we then drilled out the bolt holes and fitted longer bolts (these were prototype knuckles, the production ones have this already done) we also ran a weld on the join to secure it. i wont be changing the steering arm every 5 mins so i'd prefer it to be solid. coilovers are BC ER with 8kg fronts LCA are OEM s14 lengthened 30 mm with a recessed area to allow the steering arm to travel more Tie rods are off the shelf OEM replacement parts, Tie rod ends are my own design Bolt on rack spacers are my own design. allows 20mm extra rack travel Castor rods are offset GKtech items Swaybar is stock.
  4. dont stroke. either go rb30 bottom end, or stick with 26 size
  5. mains dont look great at all. its had a major oil issue for it to do this much damage...
  6. How does it drive?
  7. Torque graph suggests that is bleeding off boost once it's peaked
  8. some more pics.. fitted susp up and notched my LCA's and gained 5 degrees more lock haha
  9. 6 degrees isnt enough to cause a loss of compression through incorrect timing
  10. i think what people are forgetting is that if your car is tuned on e85 and your next batch of fuel you run is 70% your car will run slightly richer then normal, there is no "running lean" or "cracking pistons" situation.
  11. yeah nothing elaborate needed... might use something like a falcon header tank and mount it in the very highest point in boot, and have an additional bleeder in engine bay. done
  12. on a serious note... i might just do this.. much easier
  13. to be honest i may end up doing both side vents and top roof vent to supplement it cause i need all the air flow i can get. I need some ducts or vents made for my rear 1/4 windows.. anyone able to assist with that? not sure about your theory on high air pressure making the fans work harder.. if the air pressure is higher due to ram air effect then fans will most likely be off due to the large amounts of cooling air flowing in. and besides think of all the factory themo fan cars with their rads in the front getting ram air from high pressure air
  14. this is sorta how the fans will be mounted but the overall set up is wider then the radiator.. and better sealed then this.. top secret supra
  15. yeah the external shifted jerico is a bitch to fit. i had to modify the left hand side of the trans tunnel to clear all the linkages. better news tho is that you can get internally shifted jerico's in 4 or 5 speed that will fit no worries.
  16. the fans are pulling through the rad.. that pic is just inverted thats all.. and yes its completely sealed. kitto, i know about that red GTR in the uk that your referring to.. its brilliant stuff. at same time theres no reason why air being fed from the roof wouldnt work as its a constant high pressure zone when straight or sideways.
  17. by blocking the feed off i mean getting a restrictor without the hole in it and knocking that in.. its as simple as getting a punch and hammering the old ones down into the gallery and hitting the new one in on top. the head however best to grub screw
  18. Just got two of the 16" spal high performance fans that flow over 3000 cfm air each... so a potential 6000 cfm air flow. overkill much? probably but thats the idea... this cooling system would be right at home in a burnout car soon mounting them on the radiator in this sort of shroud, excuse my MS paint skills..
  19. restrictors are in the block mate, you measuring the block or the head? you need to block off the VCT feed in the head and run another feed when putting on rb30 block.
  20. Recently i went to the UK and Ireland for a holiday for a month... naturally i got up to some motorsport related stuff while i was there! If people are interested on reading up on my drift and Motorsport adventures in the UK and Ireland.. have a read through my blog http://www.smdrift.com.au/1/post/2013/07/drifting-in-the-uk.html http://www.smdrift.com.au/1/post/2013/07/whats-the-craic-in-ireland.html
