Hi Mate,

Engine has done 90,000kms since I bought it, and 170,000 is on the car. The engine was very strong, Fatz drove it the last day it was running and said that all it needed was a bigger turbo... actually the only reason I pulled it out was because we had the bigger engine pretty much done, and I am really not 100% sure I want to sell it, as I'm thinking about keeping it as a spare engine if I lunch this one.

Overall condition... it always got serviced less than 5000kms, I always run top oils, make sure that it is running good fuel and looked after it extreamly well, I was getting all the stuff through sponsorship... Never ran more than 0.8bar of boost.

Never had a problem with the engine, except for a cracked exhaust manifold, that is it.

Engine was sealed before I took it out of the car.

Let me know if you want some other info, or more specific info.

Cheers,

Dan.

sorry for the hi-jack, free bump I guess

Just wondering whether your mspec front bar came with the 2 grills on the bottom part or if you bought them somewhere.

Or if you want to sell them to me I'm only 15 min drive to Penrith on the m4 :domokun:

I am selling the with the bar, which should be going in the next 2 weeks. They came with the bar, might try jsut jap or SSS automotive?

Hey, Thanks anyway dude.

If it's not too much trouble, could you see if the grills have any product or number code on them? I'll try to order them through nissan lincorp because nobody else has got them, a product code would really help.

All the best mate

Cheers

    • Reasonably hard, although I haven't run it with the new Endless setup yet. The old brakes were F50's on 335mm rotors and the car did a 1:40.6 at Phillip Island which is a reasonable time, I'm seeing high 600s on the temperature paint. A guy I know ran the Endless fluid at WTAC without issues and he was doing 1:33's I think (Evo) with a 355/332 setup. I don't get out to the track as much as I'd like but we put the car on the hoist and spanner check every bolt and re-paint mark everything, bleed the brakes, change the fuel, check the coolant system and re-bleed blah blah blah before every event. Motorsport is expensive, RB's are expensive so a couple of hours before an event is time well spent. It's also a net time saving because if you can keep your RB from self destructing it saves you time in the long term!
    • Welcome Alice......hope you have a bit more luck from here on! What was done in the build?  
    • Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!
    • Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!
    • I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
