Seen a white R33 with an LS1 over here in Perth, was built by a guy that went to jail for kiddy fiddling :)

I also found this photo somewhere on this site.. pretty sure I saw the car at Motorvation this year.. RWD 32 4door I think.

Thats the punishment for putting a V8 in a skyline, especially a non-nissan V8.

except that engine is a VG30DET v6, not a v8

anything can be done - im reading of a guy in the states doing a 350chev rearwheel drive conversion to fwd integra (rx7 IRS rear, ls1 engine, tremec t56 gearbox)

My bad.. I didn't look close enough.. I was distracted by that huge snail :D

JUST WANTED TO KNOW IF ANY ONE HAS EVER THOUGHT OF PUTTING A V8 INTO A 32 GTS4 OR GTR. JUST CRUIOUS TO SEE IF IT COULD BE DONE OR WOULD IT COST TO MUCH WITH HEAPS OF CUSTOM WORK. I THOUGHT IT MIGHT BE COOL WITH THE LOOK OF THE 32 AND THE SOUND OF A V8

NA_R33 (John P) has a methanol injected supercharged VH45 running 10's. It was the one at jambo.

and oh what a sweet ride it is... expect single digit runs soon!

That Red 34 with the Gen-TT LS1 is Australian.Built by GT Autosound in SA for the Drift Australia series, so it can be done. There is a few build pics on another forum. So it definately can be done, but i dont think u would get it done for less than 20k, alot of hours would be involved.

There is a bloke in the UK putting an LS1 into an Astra, so im sure with a bit of massaging you could get it in there no worries, just depend on how deep the pockets are, but if it makes you happy, then why not :stupid:

    • 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.
