Dam straight Damo would rather do SAU them heroin gts4 are 4.1 because they share the same parts from the gtr i think r32 gtst is 4.3 because of the lack of torque from the rb20

Yep Luke i need my guards rolled. I'll do it myself if I can borrow the roller? All you have to do is watch and drink the brews I'll supply for the borrowing. Have you got a heat gun to heat the paint? I have one if you need.

EDIT!!

Hey Jenkies, I see you lurking there. How's things been?

Lol lets group buy that shit up!! They only have like 2 left haha.

But if you think about it:

12k for the engine

$200? for the postage

2k for the labour to take out/install the new engine

$400 for a tune?

I'd say, if you had a lazy 16k, it'd be a good deal. And you get all the strengthened goodness of N1!

Lol it was a rough guesstimate!

Come to think of it now... even PFC tunes are more expensive :(

Edit: okay, so they're now 12999 and they're out of stock :(http://justjap.com/store/product.php?produ...=334&page=1

How about a NUR spec engine? http://justjap.com/store/product.php?produ...=334&page=1

Or maybe a craaaazy N1 engine? http://justjap.com/store/product.php?produ...=334&page=1

I think there going to try and replace just the one that's not working for now and see how it goes. If it works then sweet.. I'm pretty sure I want to sell it so I don't want to spend heaps.

I could change my mind. Just dunnooooo

why you wanna sell up?

I want to go faster, I'm always using the best products and servicing it all the time at morpowa and I'm tired of spending shitloads on it when im not satisfied with its power.

If it was turbo I wouldn't mind forking the cash out. At the moment it just doesn't seem worth it. :(

Lol Damo, just noticed your Quad-Turbo car description in your profile! Does it make 2399kw at all 6 wheels? :(

Nah im running a conservative tune on 30psi, 1578rwkw. Getting tuned for E95 soon, apparently its 150 octane. Should see 3000kw at the wheels.

      HyperGear vs Pulsar Turbo RB25DET

      The fact that Hypergear has been posting here for like 10+ years would 100% make me go to him for a turbo upgrade. Glad you got what you wanted from them.

      R34 power steering

      By niZmO_Man · Posted

      Mate. Your car is like 20 years old. Expect that the rubber bits (seals, hoses, etc.) needs to be replaced. Best bet is to carefully go through your engine bay and try to find parts that need replacing (e.g. rubber hoses). for your power steering issue, best bet is to pull off the pump (not that hard, you can buy basic tools from Supercheap et. al. to remove it) and then inspect/get it rebuilt. *edit* forgot to add, no idea on R34, but my R32 HICAS computer has been playing up since I bought it (10+ years ago), so I just disconnected the small plug to "disable" HICAS but keep my power steering. So something extra for you to look into.

      PRP RB26 cast block + head prototype running

      By niZmO_Man · Posted

      Something to keep in mind, RB26DETT was dreamt up in 1986-1987 for the Group A regulations. So to compare it to a post-2005 engine is not the best. You must Compare the RB26DETT to its contemporaries, like the YB (which it killed off), the 1GG, 1JZ, whatever 5L V8 Ford/Holden had, etc. etc. aka late 1980's tech. When you're trying to match RB26 to a S58, you've gone off the deep end already and are looking at custom block/head/etc so no longer a standard engine. Technology has come a long way from 1990 to 2020.
