The Mafia

You're welcome to try and punch me in the mouth

got a bit of "fulleh sic uleh" in that video. What a wanker though. I could make a commodore smoke like that. Good luck with your "I'm a special kid" RB20 projects. When your wallets are empty, and you're crying because stock RB25s and RB2530s are lapping you, I'm going ot laugh my ass off.

This is what SAU is all about - Well done on the mod mate. I like it a lot. Looks stock as f**k too.

I'm a tuner, I do powerfcs, Vipec, and Link. Played with a nistune, it is by far the best on a budget, and just as capable as the powerfc, if not more capable. The others are for higher performance applications.

lol at this thread entirely. I love the way people think that they have a better idea over a few beers than years and millions of dollars in R&D. If this is such a great idea, nissan would have thought of it. Back in the 1980s.

Loud BOV = wanker They are quiet for a reason.

I would definitely get a nistune if I had a R34 - I want to keep it as stock as possible. Plus, I wonder if the nistune can run the on dash display without any problems?

hhhmm. I wonder if they are much different software wise, other than the R34 ECU being modified to take to the newer o2 sensors and the CAS wiring. I definitely wouldn't want to hack up a R34 GTR wiring loom, so I would buy a second hand R32 GTR ecu and internally mod it for the CAS. Its not hard, I made a R32 GTR powerFC work fine in a R32 GTS-T.

Elite racing is right on the money mate. (He always is )

I'm also interested in this. I might even get a copy of the nistune software and have a look at what features the nistune gives the R34 ECU that are tunable. oh, and I'm a tuner mate - and I only deal with good shit. Sick of tuners only pushing haltech or some crap because that is all they know. I've seen fools cut a Ford XR6T factory ECU out and "wire in" a haltech because they had no idea how to edit a factory ECU, and we all know the XR6T ECU is by far the best ECU for it. Its what is the most functional for the user \ car owner.

If you're a normal SAU user, skip down a paragraph to the bit where the stars start, otherwise this little bit for our smcqueen fellow will waste your time. Smcqueen...ok.. I Haven't replied to one of these for a while, and I am in the mood so I will. Firstly, if you want to get personal, then, I'll reply with a personalised response. Yes, I HAD an R33. It was written off by some f**kwit that never gave way at a green light I was driving straight through at 55kmph. Landed me in hospital. Wow, you read my age. I'm actually still 29. Definitely not trying to stand out of the crowd though, because there are plenty of other young dickheads doing that, with bright cars, stickers, planking to their deaths falling from balconies and cars moving at high speed, noisy f**kwit chirping twirly blow off valves that they think will make women get naked and dive into their car (99% of women over the age of 18 actually think they are wankers with small d!cks), and Ventmo wastegates. ok moving on - I don't think I should be married, I quite happy banging some of the finest asses in QLD at the moment, and I think I will stay that way. I've got plenty of cash, I'm relatively quiet, and I have a big dick, so I don't need other things to extend it, like "standing out" from the crowd. I don't care if you don't believe me either, because I only need to prove that to women. The Mafia was a name people called me when younger and I guess it stuck. People f**ked me over bad enough, and I'd hurt them bad enough. Was a fair exchange. Not trying to "act" like anything like a lot of you younger fellows need to do. I just get by in life. I act like me. And last guy I beat the shit out of, was twice my size, and I had a very vaild reason to. I don't like fighting. ********************* Normal SAU users can start reading here: Now thats off my chest - The reason I know this shit is because I'm a tuner. I have also built my very own RB25 headed 30 bottom end engine. All myself, no mechanics, no help, etc. Just took a block to a machine shop, and brought it back honed, acid dipped etc. Did the final wash with a 3000psi aqua blaster, dried and lubed, and assembled it myself. Here is a very vague list of cars that I have tuned (probably over 100 now). R34 GTR with twin HKS 2530s R33 GTR Standard R33 GTR worked like f**k Forged WRX built for 9 second passes R33 GTS-T standard R33 GTS-T big turbo R32 GTS-T Standard R32 GTS-T with RB25 equipped Standard R32 GTS-T with big turbo R32 GTS-4 with TD06 12cm RX7 13B with GT3540 (My tuning career nearly stopped suddenly with this one...) Various SR20s Various CA18s RB30s (VL Turbos) Ok, if you see a pattern there. Most notable were a couple. Guy had a R32 GTS-T with a RB20 in it. Put a bigger turbo on it, and it made 200rwkw. I rewired a GTR ECU to run this car because the didn't make the AP engineering Powerfc anymore. After a good few tunes and a few runs, it was done, and it was a f**king big let down. Laggy, nothing until 4,500rpm, un responsive, and no torque. wow. Money well spent. Then, I tuned another. R32 GTS-T, had a standard internal RB25 installed, garrett GT3037 with a 0.82 rear housing. And for the love of f**k, this thing went well. Smoke from the guards in the first three gears, sideways when you wanted it, and just pulled like a 14 year old boy that just got his first porno mag. Then a tuned a RB2630 installed into a R32 GTS-T. This thing was sex on wheels. All the R32s that had the same or bigger engines installed as my R33 tank definitely had quite an improvement in acceleration, torque, and handling. The RB20 engine is too small for a bigger turbo. The exhaust pulses are too small to spool a turbo early, this is why a SR20 will bring a same sized turbo on earlier than an RB20. Turbos like BIG exhaust pulses, not lots of little ones. Its a physics thing, and I wont get into that as it will double the length of my post, and you can barely string a structured sentence together or even spell so I'm 95% sure that wouldn't understand my explaination anyway. So, at the end of the day. Being different when it comes to engines means this - You'll have an empty wallet, and you won't be winning any races. On the track, people don't give a shit how different your engine is. As long as the power delivery is good, torque everywhere etc, its what counts. Being different engine wise certainly does not pull roots either.

fact is any money spent on a RB20 is a f**king waste of time. All this shit about RB20s are under rated etc. f**ken bullshit. Its a low capacity motor that has too short of a stroke to spool a turbo properly. whats this talk of $6k? Buy RB25 for $1k, spend $5k making it awesome Buy RB25 head for $500 and spend $5,500 on a RB30 bottom end and make it even more awesome. If you want to waste $6k on a RB20, then go for it, proves there are still stupid people out there that think they are awesome "doing something different". I'll still lap you in a standard bottom end RB25\30 motor, that cost half the price. Good luck.

I went 1200 grt then 1500 grit. Comes up like a mirror

lol you think thats not too small for a GT35 sized turbo, and 3.0L motor? Time to sell up and buy a Holden my friend.

its the one way valve. REmove it and you will have a little bit of trouble starting the car.

Just standard rotors mate

were you drunk when you posted that?

Randy, your inbox is full.

PMs replied to and sent to the rest of you.

I can go one better Callan, lol I've got a Powerfc, hand controller, nismo 555cc injectors already in a fuel rail for sale, right now I'll even throw in a full tune for an extra $100. Haha. You're welcome to PM me mate if you want any of this. I'd love to sell it as a package. Just bare in mind a full Powerfc tune in Mackay Mackay is worth about $800+ and there aren't any shops around here that will do as good a job as me. I love these cars and take time and care. Not a rush job to get them charged and out of the workshop.

Bump. Doesn't anyone want this? They are rare as f**k. Lol.

Thanks for all of the kind words everyone. The brand new RB25\30 motor and fully reconned gearbox had only done 1,500 kms when I had the accident... Its a f**king let down, thats for sure.

I've got the garrett equivalent - GT3037, with oil and water lines etc. Do you need plumbing etc?

Hey mate Located in Mackay QLD Just let me know what you are after

Thanks guys. So I keep the fronts but what I might do Is simply change the rear shocks but keep the springs etc. Do the camber and castor kits swap? I'm hopeless with suspension, even though I built my own engine and tune it lol. I don't even know what they look like.
