A Few Small Question Regarding My Upcoming Efr Build..
cobrAA replied to cobrAA's topic in Engines & Forced Induction
2) As for the oil issue. I decided to go with the tomei pump ( and sell both my N1 used pump and used oem with reimax gearset). I know the greddy extended pan is not a popular choice here, but i personally know 4 local GTRer who drove with that and no drama happened both in term of oil issue and cracked pan so I will go with the easiest solution. ( i.e: Racefab is approx. 1200-1400 and will be tight to meet my ETA , while the greddy is easy to get and cost 400$) and racefab is also 15mm 3) i went with 1000cc bosh ev14. better be safe. price is difference is quite minimal 4) I will plumb back.. exhaust setup seems okay. 5) Now for the ATTKD / Hi-octane / Autech air/oil separator, they will come up at 300$ and most people tell me i should still run this setup in parallel with a catch-can.. makes me wonder if these can are really worth the 300$ or they do very little.. ( keep in mind, i also have mine's cam baffle) thought on this !? -

me too.. all my muffler are bought.. but i could always substitute one muffler for a straight resonator, since they are smaller, they might restrict less. None the less, I'M pretty sure my 3.5/4 inch exhaust could cope with a 650-700whp build especially considering a 3 inch line has been seen a lot of time on 600whp build. -

A Few Small Question Regarding My Upcoming Efr Build..
cobrAA replied to cobrAA's topic in Engines & Forced Induction
what sump model you are running ? That's anothe thing I was wondering yesterday when shopping for sump, theres so many modded custom sump out there, who I am to decided which model/design is best for my application ? Obviously any of these fabricator wants to tell you their sump is best. Right now, I fogot to mention, I'm running a tomei baffle and a tomei oil restrictor with my N1+ crank collar and catchcan setup. -
A Few Small Question Regarding My Upcoming Efr Build..
cobrAA replied to cobrAA's topic in Engines & Forced Induction
Shimming the pressure relief was just an idea to have a higher pressurelike the N1 does but with the increased strength of the oem oil pump gear ( 77mm vs 81mm). See, I drove my well-tuned -5s built with occasional drag night ( -5s produce what ? 430-450kw right ?) and a N1 pump ( which some would say that its a POS pump worth-nothing) and after 20 000 kms, no oil problem at all. So that was my thinking behind my OEM pump + reimax gear. If I don't change the way I drive the car ( i.e: I don't beat the shit out of it, i set the rev limiter at 7.5k and barely ever launch it or if i do, its like a 4k dump), the extra 50kw or so power should be handled by the stronger reimax gear. I totally get what you means. I will surely been thinking about it. Honestly, fact that I'm going with an expensive EFR setup means that I'm not willing to '' cheap out'' on the built. But I don't want to make it more complicated either ( i.e: bad weld, sump lower get cracked, leaked hose, bad setup regarding the drain back. etc.) I've seen a few story of people running out of oil too.. -

A Few Small Question Regarding My Upcoming Efr Build..
cobrAA replied to cobrAA's topic in Engines & Forced Induction
Thanks for your input, We managed 575whp without running out of fuel with that fuel pump. So, I hope that same pump coul pump out another 75whp before maxing out. Well, I hope it will work haha ! 4. Will read that thread very soon. We had a fair share of blow-by in the intake piping back then, then we went atmo and it was obviously better. but we could also plumb back in the exhaust, I guess. -
Hey guys, I just spoke with my mechanic and we had a few ''disagrement'' on a few stuff so I'm curious what other would do in my situation or if you already tried it and could give your input. Basicly, the build is a RB26 with a EFR 83/74 EWG plumb back with Type-R cam and all the usual add-ons. Car will be daily driven in downtown commute. 1) Spark plug, I wanted to go NGK BKR7E-11 and he told me it might not be enough. I believe he was talking about enought cold. 2) Oil pump ; I wanted to go stock pump 81mm with reimax gear locktite the plate and shim the pressure relief. He prefer I go with a nismo,reimax or tomei pump.. but then.. you need bigger sump, so he tell me to get the greddy.. then why not do a drain back with hose.. I agree it might be the best thing to do, but at 3000$ more, I'm not sure it's needed for a daily driven downtown commute car that will barley do any drag and circuit stuff. I'M pretty sure the reimax gear can handle my type of driving. Also, I don't like the gredyd extended pan, i'm scared to break it when hitting pothole ( I live in a winter country) 3) Injector, I want to go ID1000 with stock fuel rail and my actual walbro 450lph . he recommanded me to go twin 044 pump, surge tank with lines and custom rail.. I honestly think it's over-rated for my application. I was doing 570whp with sard 700cc and stock setup with nismo fuel reg..Surely, I could strech an extra 75-100whp with this kind of setup with bette rinjector. Whats your thought ?? ON top, I don't really have space in my trunk for that kind of setup. 4) I wanted to go with the hi-octaine air/oil separator to free up some space in my engine bay. would you feel confident just running this setup with a mines cam baffle or would you still run an external (vent to atmo) catch-can ? 5) Finally, I used to run a 3 inch exhaust and made 570 with a pair of -5s. It seems to be breathing nicely. My setup was ; Vibrant ultra quiet resonator, magnaflow 3 inch straight pipe muffler with a Varex muffler 3 inch. Because I do downtown driving, I like a ''quiet exhaust''. So this time I decided to go 4 inch muffler as a cat-replacement, with a HKS Hyper 90mm rear muffler + a 90mm varex. He scared it might be too restrictive.. saying I should remove one muffler and only run 2. Or maybe I could run 2 + a resonator. He said, every muffler you add, you restrict the flow by about 100whp. 6) Also wanted a 4 inch dump pipe considering I was going to plumb back my EWG. First, he dont like the idea of plumb back the EWG, but I'm scared I will hate the loud sound of the EWG. Surely, a few of you must 've drove a EWG setup, how was it ? Thanks for your help, will report back with result for everyone wondering

which motor ? -
FS/ TW: Reimax close gear ratio 3-speed for skyline BNR32/ BNR33. Come with a special WPC treatment worth approx. 400$, make the gear stronger. I want 1000$ cnd. The gear has maybe 1 or 2 very small nick beside it's BRAND NEW. Problem : As you can see, it only has 3 counter gear and not 4 like it should. so this kit is incomplete. I'm no expert, but I suppose you could either take or copy one out of a OS giken kit ( more common), use it as a spare for your close ratio gearset, or speak japanese and ask reimax just for the counter gear missing. ( OS giken sell countergear for 250$.. so i doubt reimax would sell it much more than that.) P.S: For people who think it's expensive for an incomplete kit, let me remind you an OS Giken 3-speed with a WPC treatment would cost approx. 3000-3500$ cnd when you factor all shipping cost, taxes and duties + waiting time to get the part ( Os GIKEN quote a waiting of 4 month). My kit is in perfect condition, so your saving about 2000$ minus the counter gear. contact info: [email protected] or PM

1) Price are in CND currency. so please convert it. US will be about that, save 20% approx lol! 2) Shipping for a small package with tracking across Canada is approx. 15$cnd. For USA, it's about 23$cnd.

I got this Reimax 3speed gearset on yahoo auction it stated it was a used kit for 1000kms and was in very good condition and WPC. Then, I came back to the auction page and not sure if google translation got updated or they edited their auction but it now stated '' repair parts'' ''shortage''. So I finally got the kit... everything look in superb condition, but when I compare to a OS giken gearset.. it has 3 big gears and 4 gears on the shaft, I actually have 3.. so am I missing a gear here ? could I buy a replacement from os giken or reimax ? can I use the OEM ? http://www.rhdjapan.com/media/catalog/product/cache/4/image/c24db00221fe2c506a4ff96a344f69d1/5/0/50042-2_7.jpg Your input is very much appreciated !

All this talk make me looking forward to see what a RB26 with 250cams with 83/74 1.05 plumb back will do. we don't have ethanol over here, but I have water/meth. I don't really care for dynoqueen number, i care more about how it will feel/drive Hopefully, it will be like I wanted ; responsive as a GT-SS, with power of the -5 When I think about it, i'm thinking maybe I should had gone 0.92 or 7670 with 1.05 for exemple. -
So Many Torque Split Controller...!
cobrAA replied to cobrAA's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
never see the abs light with mine ! BTW, im now running the more advanced fullrace ETS unit.. but extremetsc is also making a more advanced unit, i would recommand swapping it with the new stuff. -
I know these gearset are pretty rare, but if you didn't know, Reimax do make a gearset for BNR32 box. I bought one on yahoo auction. So my question now is what else should I fit !? 1. New set of synchro ( 220us) from nissan 2. OS giken input shaft ? 3. Os giken billet center plate ? I'm leaning toward 1 and 3. Would rather put the money on porting the head and do other stuff, to be honest. My setup `RB26 + EFR 83/74 ( you make the call on how much whp it will produce) + its a daily driven R32 and wish to hit the dragstrip ( maybe start lapping) from times to times.

darng it! Maybe I should've went with the IWG then lol.. well.. i could always try to swap my actual FR EWG mani + 83/74 for the IWG lol With that said, I think I will be able to offer a fair and interesting comparaison between the 83/74 and PTE 6266 DBB Gen2. Both rated 800hp. same dyno, same tuner, same haltech ecu. same ''built'' rb26 ( we're both on 86.5mm), same exhaust size basicly. Difference beeing mostly the cam ( 250 9.15mm Vs 260 8.9 ) and the turbos. -
Anyone tried the spool import yet !? they've been out for about 8 month now. someone must have heard about them

I want to strengthen some of my tranny component and I'm looking for feedback or opinion on this. 1) Anyone tried one of these process ? should I only do one process or can I do 2 or 3 of them ? 2) which part should I think about treating ? gear + synchro ? Anything else ? Should I try to treat other component of my engine rebuild ( valve- valve spring - camshaft - piston etc.) Thanks guy

Extra Capacity Sump Needed With Any Hi-Flow Oil Pump ?

Extra Capacity Sump Needed With Any Hi-Flow Oil Pump ?
cobrAA replied to cobrAA's topic in Engines & Forced Induction
My engine will already be out, this is not a problem. the problem is that I drive my car in the street and here in canada, we have tons of pothole, so the fact that I already ',scrub my pan at the moment, with an even lower sump/pan..i'm really scared to crack my pan/sump. I barely track the car and have a tomei baffle plate installed in the pan. So I think my best choice is N1 with reimax gear.
