Also did you use any aftermarket bolts etc? Like ARP ? Exhaust system? standard manifold? standard coil pack? Whats the advantages of the hypertune TB setup over the stock?

Hi Mark, Firstly excellent thread mate. So did you end up going the V-Cam system? cost? what model did you get and does it really make that much difference? After reading your thread I noticed you picked cams so I'm thinking you ditched the V-cam Idea. Did you replace standard suspension parts etc change CV'S etc? I'm deff going the 2.8L route myself but still haven't decided on turbo config. Any tips of things you would have done different or changed so far? Also why the new head? couldn't you use or old head to upgrade? was it expensive from Nissan japan? Cheers Rob

Thanks Richard and others for your advise. I guess I will have to get the old excel spread sheet out and start doing shopping lists for setups in each class and then start weighing up pros and cons. I guess what makes it hard to choose a direction is when a reputable person who knows their stuff says one one and then an equal has taken a completely different stance which makes you kinda question which one would be more applicable. I'm trying to stick to facts and see results black and white, but that in itself is hard. After having looked at all the dyno results there's not alot of 2.8L that stand out yet Richard your exp in Japanese says other wise plus you have the added bonus of haven been in a RB30/26 to compare. Then the notion of having a built RB26 with the right head components etc purpose built for response sounds excellent. Its hard to pick a line atm and go for it. Any details or build thread on that GT block 26 circuit car? Cheers Rob

I understand that a reliable RB26 is more then forged rods, cranks and pistons. As I have said I have been researching for along time and there seems to be so much information and mis-infomation as to what would be an excellant combo for a very strong 400AWKW engine that has a primary goal of achiving responce. Head wise - I was going to go for port polish - ie some thing like a stage two ie porting and polish without going to drastic and removing the quish pads etc Over size valves ie 1 ~ 1.5mm oversize etc etc mainly from supertech catalog As for cams Like I had stated I wasn't too sure on what too pick. Haven seen alot of RB30 results and all very impressive but theres a few aspects I don't like. I have seen the results that Gav and John from WA have had and ant scali from xspeed also runs a 2.8L. On the RB26thread there doesn't seem to be alot of people with 2.8l's showing results or many of then using / nismo or HKS lighten standard 2.6 config. So very much in limbo atm......

So is a 2.8L plausible for a response car? Lets say my aim was 430AWKW single goal a strong built response monster. With that AWKW goal in mind I thought the 2.8L would be more applicable. Just need some direction..... so I can start my build asap.

Yeah its the outside trip that usually fades etc on the out side of the window on bottom edge. It wipes the window clean each time. It's essentially a channel with rubber flaps and clips. Cheers Rob

I mainly looking at the RB26 stroker choice due to hassel free upgrade, that is off the shelf no scouring for a block etc etc. I have no double that the RB30/26 is a monster. I have currently 260 9.15 poncams running Garret 2860R-7's with all supporting mods and FC d-jettro. I'm not really with this config. My aim is too build a very strong , reliable, high response street car. The 2.8L is for extra CC to spool turbos quicker. The 272 cams were chosen to allow for more of an aggressive response. Maybe my config I have in mind is wrong for my goal. Also I want it tough, as in HKS 2.8L config in case I want to chnage to a single top mount and also to be a very strong build. Or to go the stock 2.6 and use quality forge... I thought the extra CC would allow me the extra flow without having to rev so hard. Or should I go the same route as atomicbomberman and use lightweight crank etc etc Any help for config Ideas would be welcomed. Also anyone have exp or know much about the reimax stroker kit? Cheers Rob

After research for a long time, looking at all the rebuild threads, stroker kit comparisons on SAU and other sites I'm still left thinking which kit.... I have chosen all the head parts, bearings etc etc just the kit. Goal is to have a street response monster. 2.8L kit for extra cc to achieve faster spool and torque etc etc I had decided on a HKS Step 2 config - for quality ans strength, but I have been reading response can suffer because they weight abit. Then after reading atomicbombermans build thought his config would be excellent for response to. I also just found this kit http://www.reimax.com/pages/products/block/index.html made by reimax- anyone had exp with kit of have in car? Or going the full nismo route and the GT500 rods, pistons , crank etc etc... I will be using the 28605-7 turbos. Probably looking at 272 10.2 tomei cams Anyone shed some light / direction...... EXP based would be best. Cheers Rob

first option to buy if right model. Cheers Robert

Does anyone know what the deal is with the solenoid? I get that the excessive amount for gimmicks and screens is not worth it but doesn't some of these more expensive EBS have dual solenoids etc? I run an IDIII, it has all the fruit but I mainly got it believing that the dual solenoids ensure accurate boost holding. Any light?

any takers?

Hi, Just wondering if there is any proven advantage with the nismo plenum? ie will it make turbos spool quicker? better response? Anyone have dyno results etc? Cheers Rob

That has completely thrown a spanner in the works for me, I was going to go twin low mount with a 2.8L stroker kit.... after looking at that a single seems to do a better job... Any other pro's con's of single setup? What work / parts have you included in your built engine? Do you find Allstar garage know their tuning? what ECU do you run? My car is r32 gtr. Would have thought a single larger turbo would have more lag? I'm building my configuration with only response in mind, would a single be applicable for this? Cheers Rob

Has the engine been torque plate honed? What made you deviate from current setup? what are you going to now?
