  1. What size cams are you after? What sort of mods are on the engine?
  2. One is a backup, for that extra special occasion
  3. A set of 6 used RB26 rods, perfect condition, were pulled out of an R33/ 65,000Km motor that blew a head gasket + subsequently is being rebuilt with all the goodies. $350 for the set.
  4. RB26 rod: 120mm? RB26 crank: 73.7mm RB30 rod: 154mm RB30 crank: 86mm Add the fact the RB30 block is ~1 inch taller and by using RB26 rods + crank in an RB30 block you've got a piston sitting ~40mm down in the bore at t.d.c. That's one massive piston you'd have to use...
  5. There was a thread about this on the SDU forums, Reece has "apparently" put a tube front end on his T51R powered GTR, and that run was done shutting down because his bonnet flew off. Croydon's have sold there car to someone in the U.S. too, "apparently".
  6. How did you manage to fit the RB26 rods and crank into an RB30 block? Most curious as to this engineering feat.
  7. Please, allow me to boldly step up to the plate... As you may have noticed ANDRA's sport compact rulebook is word-for-word taken from the NHRA's sport compact rulebook. Except we deleted the pictures. So, until our beloved forefathers in America decide what they are going to do with the rules, we will not do anything. Caustic enough reply? Edit: Hey it looks like they are acutally basing the weight on perceived performanc e of vehicles instead of cubic wangs... http://www.nhrasportcompact.com/2004/rules.../revisions.html
  8. Damn, I thought this was going to be a thread about a wild night out with lots of beer and hookers.
  9. Brendan, I put the 3040 with the .73 housing on my car, along with cams etc.. Will be down at the UAS wakefield day if the thing gets tuned by then. Can compare it against your setup then?
  10. Heh still at work, hope you guys are having fun
  11. It's not a waste. One word - Aerodynamics.
  12. Is it possible to do a half day only (afternoon)? Work commitments prevent making it there in the morning...
  13. By raising the boost the turbo has to be able to support it - it might be more efficient running high comp/ relatively low boost than high boost/low comp. Depends on alot of factors - head porting, cams, inlet, intercooler, state of tune etc. Hey Meggala, what's wrong with racing an import straight off the docks? Just because I've actually seen people destroy their motors driving their car from the docks to quarantine (400m) doesn't mean it's a baaad thing
  14. Nice that you have engine internals, but a Trust 2.7 kit includes a custom crank - std. one is in the pics. As for compression, there are alot of Jap cars running 9.5:1 with 30psi setups... admittedly they only use race gas at that boost level, but wouldn't you run a lower amount of boost (and premium fuel) on the street anyway?
  15. Is the Kai a ball bearing model?
  16. The multi checker just displays some values from the engine harness. PowerFC hand controller shows the same stats.
  17. Tomei do 6 speeds? Last I knew they distributed Hollinger boxes.
  18. Hence needing to pressurise the cylinders with air Crazyman.
  19. I don't think you need to worry about competition sir! The numbers have been growing fairly quickly, as opposed to track days where there's a meeting once a month with the drags it's (or was) once a week.
  20. SNSW used to have alot of bitchin and infighting, hence the reference. Judd, since you are obviously making a bit of cash on the side from importing, you need to take this like a business. If this was a business thread it would have been locked/deleted as there's too much slander going on. If people who have bought from you have a problem, the place to mention this is in the "bad traders" section in the classifieds. As a business, this thread is doing more harm than good for you. For the forums, it brings it down a notch with the slander and infighting. For people that make silly allegations, it makes them look rather rediculous.
  21. So this is what happened to SNSW? Someone kill this thread please.
  22. Hope you're sitting down.... http://www.anewlife.co.uk/us_oil_additive_...e_ordering.html
  23. Dude, if you blatantly lie about something, what makes you think people are going to believe anything else that you have to say? I agree with whatsisname, it could be a Datsun 1600 with a flare kit that you are trying to sell...
  24. Roy, the clinic just called. They've approved your application for "the operation". Have you asked Prank to change your nic to "Royette"?
  25. HKS do a lowmount cast iron manifold for RB20/25. I'm in the process of fitting a custom low mount manifold to an ECR33/RB25 - HKS GT3040 turbo. It's pretty tight, but fits. Will post up some pics when the manifold gets back from being coated.
