  1. Hey guys, just lowered my r33 gtr on coilovers, not too much just a good height, and my camber seems excessive now, this is from me looking at them....maybe ~2negative all round?....i havent done my wheel alignment yet, but i dont think itll help much. Whats my best option at this stagE?, i can get whiteline stuff locally and cheap aswell.... also whats a good camber setting for the gtrs?
  2. Phew - Thanks mate, thought i just done something wrong to my new coilovers, basically to make it even more simple: I twisted the coilover spring to line up the bottom eye to the thread. No pallets were touched.
  3. I was quoted for the car to be dropped off this weekend, and work will take 2 days. He said if he hasnt done it within that time, then he'll drop the price $500, thats how confident he is, unless the new motor dont start...But he knows it will. Insane as in good or bad price?
  4. Car is r32 gtr, how hard is it to fit a new spoiler(remove old one), and fit new rear pods onto it....??? I really want to do this asap. Can i use double sided tape to fix the rear pods???
  5. Thanks mate - yeah i had a long thought about it, and it seems i'd have to spend roughly that amount to get it reliable and safe and the way i want. Any good deals i should know about for any of the above mentioned parts?.....my main concern is what to do with the new head ill be buying, should i give it a full recon or not?
  6. Thanks simon, i wish i was in AUS< as there are so many reputeable workshops over there, im in NZ, and theres a really good rb workshop local, who ive gone to in the past as they know the rb engine so well, all other garages generally point me to them as well as they do have the know how on the cars.... How much for a full head recon anyhow???, and is an n1 block a bit too overkill for my power goal in mind?, how much should i expect to pay for an rb26dett head and block? Thanks, ill purchase some eagle rods for the car aswell, i hear ou can get 2 types, like h beams or something?....whats the difference? Also, im buying all the gear myself, and then handing it over to the workshop to put together, much cheaper this way for me. What am i looking at spending for a full head recondition, and ca oyu mod the stock sump, or could i buy a new one?.....i hear bigger sump means a bigger restrictor in the head gallery aswell?
  7. Hey, yeah its like it just needs that slight KICK to get going, its hard to explain, but then when the cas timing is right on, this wierd noise comes through the intake, like huge vacuum pressure going out the intake and through my afms - panel filter(where it seems to stop making the noise). Ive cranked the engine by hand, and all seems ok. I also lined up my timing marks at tdc, removed cyl 1 spark, and piston was right on TDC, so timing looks to be correct.
  8. Hey guys, i've created an rb26 saving account where i put my money into where i can to save up for the cost of a full rebuild for my motor, car is old now and theres a possibility it mite be on its way out, so im just being prepared thats all.... I've decided i would like to run the car primariliy for the street, hill climbs occasionally on street roads, and track maybe once a year(if that). I'm after reliablilty more than power, an 11sec gtr street car would be nice:)....and want heaps of response out of the car Here's the plan of attack, please feel free to share some ideas, and give advice on parts i could do with/without for my goal of ~300-320awkw max. My car is a 95 r33 gtr vspec. Parts List: Standard Rb26 Head + Block - bored to 86.5mm for oversized pistons (is an n1 block worth buying if im aiming for this power goal and reliability) Tomei 9.15mm Lift In and Ex cams + Tomei adjustable cam gears. Tomei Headgakset Kit 1.2mm thick 87mm Bore, including the Oil restrictor fitted to Head. N1 Oil Pump Replace Water Pump with Brand New factory item ACL Race Big End and Main Bearings Stock Rods + ARP Rod Bolts Forged Pistons (dont know which brand? maybe Tomei, JE, Wiseco?) - need help here - .5mm oversize Arp Headstuds (which i already have in engine - which can be reused right?) HeadWork - dont know if its worth replacing all valve guides, retainers etc...can it get quite costly if i do???, and would you reccommend it? Sydney Kids Oil Mods (all of them) Dont know if i should get bigger Sump? HKS GT-SS Turbos or maybe R34 N1's Nismo 550cc injectors sufficient? Apexi Power FC D-Jetro Bigger Intercooler? Tomei/HKS Dump Pipes Bosch 040 Intank Fuel Pump Is there anything else ive missed, or things i dont really need for my power goal in mind that can save me on costs, id like to keep it as low as possible. I was told my head is now on its last stretch, and shouldnt be machined again, so ill definitely be buying a new head, maybe a block aswell, so i can get the whole motor put together and dummy tested etc while mine is still running. Let me get some advice please, this will be my first big rebuild, i already have 10k.
  9. heres the part no for my cas: 23731 02U11 Further information regarding my issue, when the car starts...and everything is lined up, it feels like its about to turn over, and then the noise of air going through like vaccum to the intake, and it ends at my arc panel....its a wierd noise to explain.... whats this mean?, or could this relate to my cas being faulty in any way???
  10. Thanks, so any cas sensors from early models with the mitsi logo should work?iive been looking at a couple of pictures and they all seem to be exactly the same as mine....if it plugs in and keys in aswell is it safe to say its for my car, or should the cas sensor part no. match up....could i screw anything up if its the wrong sensor?
  11. all i need to do at this stage is check the cas sensor is not faulty, as mine was dropped, can i use an rb engine cas sensor?mine is a mitsubushi.
  12. Hey, my cam gears and crank gear timing was spot on, and when i placed the belt on it was no different, so the timing there is perfect, only thing that wasnt, was the crank pulley timing(ignition timing). yes there a half moon in the exhaust cam and cas sensor to key into.
  13. Thanks, what type of cas sensor could i use with my rb26dett engine from an r33 gtr 95 model?, i was told r33 gtst sensors also work?
