Hi does anyone have any idea of how to change the speedo cable in a r32 gtr Can I just take the inner part out and slide the new one in. Well I dont really know if I can even buy a new inner part. I just have another car for spare parts. But im trying to find out if I can just change out the inner cable because it seems like a pain. The only good thing about my situation is I have the motor out the car. If I can take it out can some point me in the right direction on as how to do so.

Yes I am in the states. I figured that it would have been a cost thing. But compared to the stock GTR coils what your saying is they are a way better coil performance wise and obviously cost wise. Im running a power fc in all my cars so I should be able to set the dwell settings. Im going to need coils for one of my build. I willing to give this a try. I also ahave a tig welder. So making the bracket to hold them down would be easy.

This is funny. Just today my father was mentions this to me. Now im seeing it here. Well what are the advantages of going with a setup like this. Is it cost.

I was thinking the same thing here about the timing. . And I do agree with trace method.

Well I was trying to have you be a little bit more detailed. I ran stock and n1 twin turbo set up and I just ran out of air for drag racing. I have a nice r33 that I drive around on the streets. And later on ill be building the motor. That car set up is a GTX3582R with a 6boost twin scroll manifold T3. Tail twin 38 gates. Its very responsive and still hits harder than the twins to me. Just a small bit of lag in comparison to twins, nothing a drop in gear cant take care of. Only down side I see. Is its a tight fit. A/C still intact and all. As for the cams ill mesure it today and let everyone know the right lift mate. I mean its for drag racing but I still would want some help with the setup. From what your saying under lets say 5000 rpms its lazy. Im good with that. I tend to dont care and leave the line hard, as for gear box there like 600 USD over here dilivered. I can damage a hole bunch of them. But if the motor keeps messing my gear box up I will definitely upgrade it. I text from work as well. I've been on this site for quite some time now, and I cant remember speaking to you before XRATED. Not that its a bad thing. I grown to know the people that know whats going on. Not by no means saying you dont mate. What rpms do most drag gtrs run.? Next do you know how some gtr's seem to do a rwd burn out. Is it a torque split controller? ?? Thanks mate.

Wow. Figure you would have more detail than that. And whats the ha ha for. Lol. 272 are to small.???? I can agree which may be the lift which I think is not stock but very close to it. The turbo is big, but not as big as you make it seem. The car is only for drag racing. Also I do know a bit of things to go fast, but I have always lived my life with an open mind to new ideas when it comes to this sport. No one can know it all and tried it all. XRATED you sound like most of the guys over here. Lol. Short answer and it dont help to much. Never the less I'm appreciative. That turbo is a gts72 and looks big cause there is no valve over on cylinder head as yet. Im planing on taking it off and replacing it later, but as for now it will have to work. Bolivia kml. As for the head you just cant stick any cam with max lift if you dont know how much your valve springs can allow for. Then your seat pressure and so forth. I come here on this site because I know guys that have tried different combination and have been successful as well as blow a few motors up. All im doing is learning

Hmm. This is nice to know. I don't plan on driving the car on the streets at least just to get it to the tracks as its only 5 minutes away from my house. I can't remember but I think a long time ago I came across a formula using the centerline of the cam and dividing somthing to find the lift. I'll google it and post the formula up. Thanks guys for all the help. Well I had a feeling the cams would kill bottom end power. I had the whole bottom end rotating assembly balanced so the revs can really he raised a bit to extract more power. What rpms do you think these cams will start showing there strengths. And what max rpms do you think I can do. The head has new supertec springs and titanium retainers. And from reading on this form I went with a tomie oil pump and larger oil pan with 1.1m block restrictor, next I installed a head oil drain on the back of the head. I'm asking cause I've never done a build like this and after reading on this form the only option that would have been better than a tomie oil pump is a dry sump setup. Which I might do in my next rb26 build when the time comes.

Photo didn't load

Yes Rob sent me a photo of the one he build for me. It looks great and can't wait to see it in person. If I'm happy with the work I'm sure I'll buy another and a friend of mine wants one for his r32 gtr

Well I was told that the cams a hks 272 but I'm not sure of the lift. I was told that it's stock but I have a caliber so does anyone know any methods I can use to measure the cam lobes and find the lift. At the moment I've just done shimming the lifters for the the exhaust cam. Tomorrow I'll do the intake. Please guys I need to understand if these cams will work for me. After I've finished the intake cam and my oil pan reaches from racefab. I should be good to install the motor.

I wouldn't want to go pass 9000 rpms. Does this have somthing to do with the duration. ???

I'm really thinking about not using my hks 272 cams. This is because I have always seem people complain about about cams cause a loss in power. These cams are 272 at stock lift or very close to it. My hp goal is around 600 hp. I got upgraded con rod bolts and piston pins. So if I want I could crank the boost a little bit more. So the very max would be around 750hp. I'm about to shim the head for these hks cams but it's been like a day I'm stalling cause I do t know what to do. My car is for drag racing but will see short drives in the streets. Does any one have experience with cams that can help me out????

Kml. That's so funny

Interesting. How does that turbo work. Is it laggy. ????

Sorry to get off topic here a little. Isn't that gtr still running a H box. Does anyone know.??? I've seen the attachment that makes it shift that way but I just can't remember the name. Help.

I would like to follow this and see what he does. Drifting you will need to rebuild that old RB30 in no time. If it's not already shot. Well one good leason I've learned if any is. The most expensive idea I ever got was a free one much less a free engine. The 30 could work, all in saying is you will never know the health of the components in that rb30 block. Please keep us posted mate. I would like to know what you did. Both options can work, just work with new parts in them that's all I'm saying. Me personally I would go back with rb25.

Can you tag those photos and paste them here please I have to join that site.??????

Can't beat that, but you don't need power to drift. That's a myth. Just rebuild the bottom end. All fresh. Fix the oil problems. And your good as a starting point mate.

That's so cool. Sounds like I'll give it a try one day. I like the ideas of how it sounds guys. A whole 50 degrees. Yep that would help the response for sure. I just don't like the price of the hks unit. Also the fact that it's variable was a good point to bring up. I'll definitely check this out for my future street gtr. Retro fitting the the VQ25 until to fit that also interesting idea. Has anyone seen this done. If it can even be done at half the price would be a good new topic to start.

Well he is selling them for 1575NZD with oil returns.

I agree. All I do is drag race. But I do have a gtr I drive on the street. I totally understand your point mate and I agree as well. I guess it would give a rb26 some guts down low.

Thanks mate that's some interesting stuff. It's also expensive for real. For that money and some brain power i can build more power than the 5+k there asking.

Yes that's what I mean. That black bolt on the right. It's to blame. Some time in the past when someone changed clutch is when it happened. I had the same issue. If I'm not mistaken that the water line for the turbo. You can upgrade it to a stainless steel line.

Funny cause I contacted them. There reply was super fast. No more that 30 minutes. I'm sending my unit out for my ECR33. I hope they can fix it. I hope they can fix it as the only thing I'm not getting is ignition spark. My hks ignition amplifier shorted and damaged the ecu. I can remember send the last item half way around the world it was a HKS 3076R Pro S turbo for a new housing and exhaust wheel. HKS technical facility charged me 2K for the repairs and after I swallow and bang my head they lost my turbo. Like wtf. I just forgot about the whole thing and went top mount with one of 6boost manifolds and a GT35. What an experience.

Oh. That was a simple expansion. Lol. I was hoping for a diagram or somthing. When you guys say expensive. What are we talking about. 5k. ???? Or more.
