  1. Yes.. I have done the conversion.. and yes it will.. The car runs fine.. but I have a feeling something still isnt right.. at times it starts in a quarter of a crank turn.. sometimes it will struggle after 3.. plus fuel consumption is pretty high..
  2. Yeah.. The RB20DE was used as a company car engine.. if its power you want.. you dont want an RB20DE.. Even my 25DE struggles a fair bit.. it is a GTS4 AND 4door.. so ~1400kg
  3. Yeah Mate.. I have the same thing.. but a 32.. I like to run in in RWD most of the time.. just cause its a little more edgy and fun.. but if Im going out for a thrashing with some mates on a twisty road for example.. its AWD all the way!.. Ill keep it AWD for the wet or country roads.. just so that its an extra saftey thing too. In the wet its acctually quite hard to get them out of control.. ATTESSA is a good slip and save mechanism and its a fantastic Idea for a young driver! Its a but more difficult for the R33's to swap from ATTESSA to RWD as you have to take the front drive shafts out.. 32's are the goods for that cos you only have to pop the fuse out.. and your good to go! =]
  4. http://www.tomei-p.co.jp/_2003web-catalogu...haft-specs.html as I said before.. get DET Springs.. their stiffer.. and as Eugene said, yes.. it will bounce back quicker. Its a good Idea in a Hi comp car. Not sure if the 25det valves are much bugger than the DE onces.. but its well worth upgrading those to get the full benefit of the cams.. and a port and polish..
  5. The money Id spend on a euro.. id get a second hand quattro/A4/A6 for the same price.. =] thats a beast! http://www.carsales.com.au/used-cars/priva...1&trecs=109 http://www.carsales.com.au/used-cars/priva...matchallpartial http://www.carsales.com.au/used-cars/priva...matchallpartial that last one is hot!
  6. If the cams you are buying are for a DET then mate.. dont.. An NA engine LOVES to overlap! Its where alot of the power comes from! The diff from NA and turbo cams is the overlap.. If you put overlapping cams in a turbo you throw out much of the boost out of the exhaust! Where as an NA uses the overlap to produce more power! An idea is to get the stock cams regrounded! Its cheap as! Or you can go HARDCORE! Ei: Get oversized cams, port and polish, stiffer springs AND regrinde aftermarket NA cams! to like a spastic amound of lift and duration! you will loose some down low torque.. BUT! if you up compression ratio in a 3L it will make up for that! So.. you have a Hi comp 3L to give you lower down grunt, a lightened flywheel to get you into the higher RMP quicker.. and once your up there, let the cams do all the work! Honestly.. I would not be surprised if with a bit of work.. an NA 25/30 would get 200KW.. if not more! please someone do it!.. I just simply do not have the funds atm to be able to afford these mods!.. P.S I think I read somewhere that ur 25 head is VCT?.. Yes?.. if so.. dont get these cams.. you will loose your VCT.. Its not a MAJOR loss.. but its a little bit more that adds to the oomph.. Mind you have to run a few more oil lines etc. to get it working properly.. /end rant
  7. KEEP ENGINE TEMPS IN CHECK! I have had so many problems with welch plugs shitting themselfs and leaving the party! ITS JUST NOT FUNNY! Why didnt nissan think of a of such a shit way of doing stuff!
  8. Yes it will fit in sweet as bro.. I did a conversion from Staggy 25de into a r32 and box mounted sweet as! So you should be right.. Really.. dont know much about the speedo/reverse/clutch cbale mounbting shit cos wI dont have my workshop manuals here.. but from my experience.. its all good!.. but really.. you may as well sell the auto and BUY an man. it works out cheaper and HEAPS easier@!
  9. wooooooooooooooooooo! GTS4's ftw! grip and drift!!!!!!!!!!! get there big rocks!!!... Im suprised I can type after so many drinks! WOOO! PROPS FOR ME!
  10. willing to go go any lower on the kit due to being in Syd?
  11. Fave plate - [iFONLY]
  12. Cant say Im much of a fan of the paint.. but F*CK! THATS GONNA BE QUICK!
  13. Is it a screeshing noice? if so.. its ur belt.. too large or too tight..
  14. As said before.. Staggy FTW! Has plenty of space.. plenty of grunt.. looks the goods.. just a freaking good car all round! extra kudos for buying the 26DETT with ATTESSA!
  15. Hay kids! I moved to bathurst at the beggining of the year and well.. it gets kinda boring sometimes.. Is anyone in bathurst or surrounding areas: Orange Lithgow Mudgee etc. etc. It seems like every week there is one more skyline in Bathurst.. so lets get together.. go for a drive sometime.. anyone interested? Cris
  16. After reading this.. Im thinking the 205's on my 32 GTR rims is a tad shitty.. The tyre looks awesome streched over the rim though..
  17. 98.. always.. Ill give the injection cleaner a go.. But it doestn seem like its a prop.. and sounds cool too.. will I be gaining much if I clean the injectors out?.. well is it worth the money?
  18. Definately worth it.. I seen a couple of bad stories about Harmonic balancers shitting themselfs..
  19. Your going to definately want to port and polish, upgrade valves and springs This may not have to be a very expensive ordeal. If your mechanically minded and do the work urself a port and polish can easily be acheived with $20 worth of parts and a days work. You could see if, for eg. there are different vales in the 30. You may be able to use those valves.. I do not know if they will mate (and yes I do know on is DOHC and 30's are SOHC). As for springs.. use rb25DET springs.. their slightly stiffer rate and will do a good job of it. According to the information given of both cams.. id strongly suggest type b. And as said before.. make sure that ur aftermarket intake cam gear is NA and it will mate with the VCT. Its a great little system and not really worth throwing out yet.. diffinately increase the rev limiter. Once all the work will be done the engine will really jump alive from ~4500/5000 to at least 7000RPM.. get a good tuner to work on so as the VCT will compliment the new head work. I dont think you should be worried about loosing too much power down low as the cam wont affect mid to low RPM and as its a 3L engine running ~11:1 CR you should have enough pull to get in you in the higher RPM where the head work will put you in the back of your seat.. any ideas on power fig? Im really curious because Im really lookin forward to my NA build.
  20. if your going to do it.. CAI.. In my engine,I got a 33 intake.. and the snorkle that take air in from next to the bonnet opening does not mate up to the grooves in under the bonnet.. so atm im just sucking in hot air from next to the exhaust.. hmmm.. should get around to fixing that..
  21. Whats this style of modification called? I seen these on HEAPS of cars from old school's vans to hi tech..
  22. qhat does this mean? Scrap the ban on turbo's.. and change the ban to commies
