Rb26 In A 32 Gtst

[play r 32]

i just had a friend of a friend tell me having a RB26 in a R32 GTS-t makes no difference and saying that his R33 GTS25 will still beat it, because of his engine and weight. how funny is that

Yup, deffinately smokin some good stuff! haha

Car Is amazing to drive now, i cant believe how much more torque the 26 has. even off boost it is different car.

So far the 20 gearbox feels good. The redline oil got rid of all the little crunches.

My only issue at the moment is the fine tuning of the microtech. Its been running mega rich and using a bucket of fuel. Cold starts where a bitch but that seems to have been fixed now.

Im thinking i made a mistake going for a microtech over a power FC D-jetro. But you live and learn.

Cant wait for some dry weather to really be able to try it out. at the moment i cant even hit boost in 3rd if the roads are wet!

remix your car looks sweet. what ecu are you using? How many kms to a tank are you gettin?

hey dude,

did you contemplate about on a 25, 26 25/30 in the r32

or did u just go straight for the 26?

is it cheaper to forge a 25 then using a standard 26? (talkin drift sense here to get input for my r32)

you paid 5k for a 26 but would a 25 front cut with gearbox is better?

im thinking of a few combinations

where did u get yours done at? (your brother told me but i forgot now lol)

[play r 32]

i did origanally by a rb25 with a twin turbomanifold setup sleekman. and i did think of a few of the combinations you mentioned but my mechanic just had this rb26 sittin there all ready to go so it was just too tempting.

Peter Grey In Gidgegannup did it for me. Top skyline mechanic. He used to race them and knows them back to front, inside out.

whats your real name? how do ya know my bro?

[Sleekman]

Hey dude, I still have the MINES rom in it with a super filthy rich jap tune. I get less than 300km's to a 60ltr tank.

[play r 32]

haha that makes me feel better! i just filled mine up for the first time since gettin the 26 and i burnty 1/4 tank for only 50km! i think it needs leaning out some more!

[Sleekman]

Trying to sell it mate. I think the TT manifold and turbos are gone but i still have the rb25 and the rb20

[Syde FX]

haha nuh i would want the manifold and turboshahaha, was it just a rb26 manifold or what was different??? and what turbos did you use?

[play r 32]

No they are custom twin turbo manifolds so they fit the gtr turbos but match up to the rb25. It came with 32 gtr turbos.

You coulda bought my R32 GTR for 15.5k

Sold now, had a new R33 GTR engine in it with 40k on it and two new turbos with 10k on them.

Oh well GL with ur project.

Mates also got a r32 gtst with R34 26 conversion, N1 turbs, ecu etc things a rocket when it grips.

Yeah i knew buying a GTR would be cheaper mate, i weighed all that up before the conversion. I did up my own car coz it was just what i wanted to do. Your mates car must absolutely fly!

[Flash89]
