Kris..

kf's and purple paint suit this so well man love it

god i love your car Jimmy

anyone know what this boot spoiler is?

big turbo turbo, lots of boost, pretty easy

bumping it up again, need this gone

yeh mine was missing when i got my car, got complete vent for $30 delivered off yahoo

that autech lip cant be bought from Streeter as its too big to post so have to buy through import monster who will prob jack up the price to something rediculous

bump

heaps on yahoo auctions

yep lip is just the bottom section of an SR20 model 180sx front bar

had this sitting in my garage for a while its the standard r32 electric front lip doesnt come with reo or motors its just the lip can be just bolted onto r32 front bar, also know it fits standard S1 S14 bar could also be modded to fit lots of others silver in colour and in pretty decent condition $100 pick up only, pm me if interested

awesome thread will read again

they are vs-mx not vs-xx

and the pixels where the rear wheel meets the rear guard lol

OH Performance in Sunshine can make you a radiator in what ever specs you want

simple answer is, you can maake anything fit if you have the money for guard work, if you want that size then buy em

theres a guy on NS that has fabricated an adaptor kit for rb26 plenum onto rb20, this is the info i got from him hi kriss. well ive been meaning to do a full write up on it but i wanted to wait untill it was in and running and at least dynoed. i didnt want to start an ideas thread i just wanted to show a go to wo and i only got the car running last week due to my work load and buying a renivators delight of a house. the one i have just finished has been a real challenge beacuse it was such a learning curve. i am about to start on a rb20det one as mine was on a rb25de on out of a r32. they are the same design in the head and block as an rb20det not to be mistaken with an r33 rb25de or det. So step one the GTR plenum has 3 parts to the sandwich. part 1 the plenum camber that every one knows so well. part 2 the throttle bodies. part 3 the inner bit that makes it all work. part 3 then brakes down into 3 parts, part A being the main runners that also houses the studs for connecting part 1 and 2 together and also has all the holes for mounting. part B being the water balance bar under neath. this plays a very crucial role of circulating the coolant around block and head. and part C being the Vacume chamber side of things, it acts as an air balance bar between all 6 runners and is where the idel valves ect connect to. Part B is the most modified pice as we found out the hard way, for some reason during all my test fitting of the plenum and adapter plate ect to the head i never had this bolted up. the problem we struck was due to the lower block height of the rb25de and rb20det than the rb26 the water bar wont fit due to the thermostat housing. we have cut and shut this part and added water outlets and used heater hose to bypass this are and then redirected the coolant into the top radiator hose where it was ment to go anyway. basicly we had to restrict the volume of water at its highest volume point and bypass the restriction. its hard to explain but its one of thoes things that we cut and shut as we needed but now we know that we are doing the next one will be easier. to help clear part B we also had to grind a fair bit of excess off the thermostat housing and a little bit off the block. Above is the only major part to the job. Testing so far shows no hot spots in the block. ( we have been using a lazer pirometer) which i was afraid of. the adapter plate was made using an rb20det intake gasket being layed over a rb26 intake gasket. all bar 4 bolt holes line up. for 2 across the top we put in counter sunk bolts to connect the adapter plate to the head and for the other 2 on the top we tapped a thread so that the GTR inlet bolted to the adapter. the bottom 2 were only out marginally so a bit of cutting and they will fit up. (some of this can be picked up by the pic of the adapter plate in the thread) the adapter plate itself plays 2 main roles in the job. creating connection points between the plenum and head where they dont fully align and the other is to taper the runners in. the rb26 runners are around 4mm bigger all around than the rb20 ones and they are quite different in the actual shape. the adapter plate tapers these in and changes the shape of the runners all in one go. My rb25 has bigger ports than a rb20 so we didnt worry about copying it but the rb20 one we are about to make we are looking at getting copied in cad and getting plates CNC machined as we need at least another 2 all ready. the plates and also be ported out with the head to accept the rb26 runners better. out built rb20 will have the head and adapter plate matched to the shape and design of the rb26 runner. other points are. the air (cold start and idle) can be custom made or you can use the big air bot that normaly bolts on under the plenum on a GTR. i just re-plumbed mine (ive got pics waiting for a build thread) you need a gtr fuel rail. rb20 wont fit. the fuel lines end up in a differnt spot so they need extending. some wiring needs extending. throttle and idle wiring. you need the rb20 tps to suit the stock gtst wiring loom. i run a gtr cooler on my car so i got all the stock gtr bits that connect from the cooler to the plenum including bov's. then i found that a gtst has all the holes for this stuff to be put in punched into the body but not drilled out. so using all the gtr stuff made it a pice of cake and cheap but after marked would be just as good. i also had a nice HKS hard pipe ready to go in the engine bay but because of the block height and adapter plate fitment it was miles from fitting. as far as cost. i got plenum and every thing for around $150-200 gaskets for all the intake $100 trade price throttle links $10 each, mine were worn in the rose joints GTR intake pipes $40 alloy for adapter plate $20 Got a good deal nuts and bolts (needed for the extra length) $40 hoses and fittings for all the air plumbing and water plumbing $150 alloy welding and fittings $100 and all my time and bits i had laying around. all works tools ect. The only way i would do them is a drive in drive out job because there is to many things that the average joe couldnt do. If we get this next one CAD copied than i would sell the plates to people that wanted to have a go but i think that it would be better as a package with most of then nuts and bolts and we could get the water galleries modified to our specs for the customer. this is how ever a long way off and as you can see from the price i have listed it soon adds up and its not really a cheap option. Research: i started to try a few different options like welding flanges onto rb20 runners ect but they were to costly and to hard in the end so i went with this. a bloke in america made one that was around 40mm thick and talked about making it into a kit but he wanted around $1000 for the kit. have a think about it. if you want to give it a go we can make a plate for you and thats a start. we have also been sourcing the last few plenums out of japan as its heaps cheaper than in AUS hope that helps damo

youre loving your new watch arent ya? haha

an R33 is no different to drift than any other can, its easier due to weight and long wheel base
