As some people know i am working on dropping the RB30det i had in the Black R32 gts-t into a R32 gts4 with 4WD. The motor is just about ready to drop in, Just thought i'd share a few pics of the exhaust manifold i built to low mount my GT3540.

Very nice... :(

Got any pics of the the exh. manifold with its heatshield on?

Did you manage to get the stock heat shield fitted with a bit of manipulation or are you going to make one up?

If the stock heat shield fits its going to look almost invisible. :laugh:

good stuff carlos.

might be down next weekend

Bring your car cozza, take us for a ride, you had it back on a chasis dyno yet?

Joel:- I had a stock RB25 n/a heat sheild i bent up to make it fit. The RB25 n/a shield has thick white blanket material on the underside which should work good. I see if i got sum pics.

would of by now but thats to an engineering company in qld i now have a bend valve and a couple of chips in my piston, the collet pulled through them billet retainers on weekend. so am going through the legal process of getting it repaired. which could take some time.

Had street machine magizine ask for photo shoot on weekend too. :thumbsup:

26 head this time???, cams??, be a good sleeper this one

cheers

darren

Darren, yeah i went 26head this time for the solid lifters to allow bigger cams and the better GTR plenum.

The aim is to keep it all looking stock, similar to my black R32.

NICE!! - Would like to do this to my GTS4 as well. Maybe later this year.

Like the stealth idea with the heat shields etc.

Can you get to those Cam Cover screws?

My HKS Tubular intake makes it damn hard but possible.

Like the full polished look as well, looks trick.

What sort of price would a manifold like that be worth to buy from you?

Geez... how did you manage that... lol... Long time no see, hope all is well. Wanna see the beast again :P

If it helps, blew a tyre last night doing the speed limit funny enough on the new front left tyre. Ended up with alot of hours lost, damaged radiator hoses, thermo fan had to be repositioned and wiring re-done, and exhaust re-heated and put back into shape (that was from the trailor).

Miss ya on the cruises mate, hope to catchya soon, and if you manage the photoshoot this weekend enjoy :P

Ash:- yeah, getting close, still got cams here (sitting in cupboard), just havent been to adelaide for about 6 months.

Joel:- head is only temporary bolted on ( havent done final assembly), i have blocked off the rear oil feed with a screw i made, i may be interested in that restrictor. what do you think i should run 1.8 or 1.5mm oil feed at front and rear blocked??

Joel:- I thought the 1- 1.2mm were for those running GTR or N1 oil pump, im only using a std RB20det pump, thats why i thought id stick with 1.8mm, or 1.5mm.

Are RB20det pumps same or nat as much flow as RB25det pumps?

Do RB30 blocks come std with 1.8mm restrictors??

    • It's kind of interesting - They definitely do builds that split the difference between what they like and what will generate views and engagement. The NC Platform always surprises everyone in a good way, in an uncomfortably good way some may say. They could throw a LS in there and arguably have the best (and best performing) car of the entire stable. But that isn't necessarily what draws views, because people viewing don't want to accept the vegetables of a LS NC MX5 being a superior vehicle in every way (including fun) than a RB26 240Z. This is also why there's not a lot of content about the GR Yaris (on the web in general). They're too good, yet 'only a Yaris' The community doesn't want certain cars to be as good as they are - to beat their hero cars, and I believe the NC MX5 is absolutely one of those cars.
    • Yeah - My key still does the chime thing. I followed the procedure but it didn't activate on the (identical) third set of keyfob that I had. I vaguely remember the alarm saying you can only pair two keys with it. Now that I've dug it up, it appears that you very much can pair keyfobs to the alarm system. (which are the fobs I use to unlock the car). I have successfully diverted the thread and can probably not use the OEM keyfob ever again unless I use the aftermarket alarm and attempt to pair the OEM keyfob to it. Which might just work, or not :D. I definitely used the nissan method and not the aftermarket alarm method.
    • What makes it worse is that Nissan made keys in the same style, for example R34 and Stagea, but they work at different frequencies or something like that. So they look the same but the remotes are not interchangeable. I learned that from some guy selling aftermarket blank keys.
    • Does your door chime work when you have the key in the lock and open the door? I've had that disabled because it's f**king annoying and it is one thing that messes with the pairing. Because now the car doesn't detect key in ignition anymore and the slide-key-in-and-out sequence does not trigger the pairing mode anymore. The service manual has a section on the various bits involved in doing the syncing. I presume it'll be similar between Stagea and R34.
    • Agree, but meh, I think is is based more on LOLS than actually apples to apples, like, who would have thunk a turbo 4 cylinder would not beat a NA 4 cylinder  I think with just basic N/A mods, like a exhaust and tune, it would be equal to the Mini in its current form, maybe I know my current 2.5 would "chop the mini" as the midrange now has a night and day difference in power delivery compared to the tuned 2.0, by around 20kwatw and 30nm from around 2k rpm "ish"....... I'm kinda hoping that they do a N/A build, either with the MZR 2.0 or with whatever they decide to use If I recall correctly they did talk about K swapping one a while ago
