RB- ajsx

money

got her back and got her running as sweetly as i could without getting it tuned. will be soon though. has a few bugs though, think the gearbox might be on it's way out. getting that checked out next week. minor exhaust leak, and a surge problem when hitting full boost but obviously i'm not doing that much till it's tuned and all set. apart from that it's fun as f*** to drive!!! torquey and sideways it's just as i'd planned and hoped it would be haha! the gearbox is a bit noisey, very noisey actually. sounds like something is loose, but.. yeah haha. also hard to get into reverse and sometimes first. anyone else with an rb20 box experienced anything similar? maybe the clutch needs to be bled again?? i'll post pics up soon, and maybe a little vid on youtube or something!

spotted a silver gtst, rim exhaust typical mods, on ginninderra drive bout 4 today. drove past gave a wave got a smile back from the chicky behind the wheel

hey all wondering if anyone has spare rb20 coil packs? fair sure mine are rooted and fair upset after all this work and time.. and mooonnneyyyy. i won't be online for the next two days, so if anyone could help out here's my number: 0404 903 872 cheers.

just thought i'd post up a pic of my girl most likely have it back wednesday. i'll post more pics once it's home and clean. can't wait!

haha don't sweat it actually ended up saving money. the custom pipes i would've needed to suit the stock plenum would have cost about $200-$300. this new custom plenum will be about another $100 maybe $200 is there a difference in the throttle bodies? haha didn't even notice

had this problem when i installed a bosch 040 fuel pump. around 3000RPM it'd splutter n surge. not always, but every now and then. check the pressure just to be sure.

turns out the plenum didn't fit anyway hahaha BUT danny (performance garage) is taking the throttle body off it and attaching it to my original plenum, essentially the same thing but to fit my RB20 i will eventually get an aftermarket ecu (thinking GReddy Emanage or Haltech. Anyone had experience with one of them?) spoke with danny and it should be fine till then. not going to be driven much in the meantime anyway. depends. if you're looking at mods that are value for money there's no point as there are other modifications that will give you more power. yes you'll get more torque i'm just setting the base down as i have plans for the engine later. plus i HATE the stock RB20 inlet plenum setup (**waits for fans to start lighting torches and grabing pitchforks** )

i'm not chasing big numbers at the moment, and if i was i'd certainly have an aftermarket ecu here's a pic of the plenum any thoughts?

give newgel a call. everone i've spoken to who has had work done there came out quite happy

hey everyone spoken to a few people about installing a custom inlet plenum (thanks to bullet32 for the manifold! ) on an rb20 with a stock ecu. half the folks said, "it will lean out your rear cylinder. make sure you've got an aftermarket computer" the other half, "shouldn't make a difference. air pressure is air pressure" if i did have an engine management system that allowed to tune individual cylinders, it'd want to be a pretty nuts engine then yes? and isn't air pressure always going to be air pressure? cheers.

bahahaha! yeah probabaly it does get a bit old after you've walked around once or twice, and there are no driving events. still good to check out some sweet cars and babes :PBJ: they never used to charge "competitors", but this year it's about $120. we're in the process of working something out with them though.. last i heard anyway. not sure on public entry prices. should be a website somewhere...

do you have an aftermarket fuel pump?

bahahahahahaha!!! pretty sure you can seperate the two peices, then you can be like a ninja

i've entered my car. heading up with about... 6-10 other cars from ACT. if anyone wants to roll up to sydney with us feel free CONVOY!
