note the rb20 in the this picture

[Ryno]

It's a little out of left field, but you make a good point

[Ryno]

It's suprising you will make more torque from 2 less cylinders, what's the mechanics behind that?

[meggala]

plus it all bolts pretty much straight in no need for fabrication

[meggala]

the car has a much bigger bore

the sr20 has a 86X86 where as the rb 20 in 79.3 I think

the test will be when we put it on the track

how many times have you been beasten buy a 180 I know I have been done a few times

[Guest RedLineGTR]

[Guest RedLineGTR]

yer, they're quick with a few mods.. some may debate the interior and exterior as well.. but hmmm..its tempting. The SR20DET motor is one great motor, and like megs was saying 4 cylinder = 4 pistons to replace, 4 injectors to replace, etc.. and even the turbos and parts are generally cheaper for them.

R32 GTS4 or 180sx.. i still can't damn make up my mind!

Which SR20 you putting in it megs? The earlier one, or one off an S14 or S15?

[meggala]

the red top

Its the cop cars *outside* the door that you gotta watch out for...

[JET-33]

s15 has vct doesnt it.....or is that in the later model rb's?

[predator]

yer...S15 SR20 has the variable valve stuff.. and i think the last of the S14's too.. just bit more top end - don't really matter if you're rebuilding the motor

been meaning to reply to this thread. ok, this is chinny's plans (most probably going to go halves in a house with my dad, but if i was going the R34 GT-T route...) :

Bayside Blue R34 GT-T

5spd

Stock as a rock.

As far as i know, there are no Bayside Blue R34 GT-T's in Oz, but that is just from cruise pics, SAU, SDU, stuff like that. So chances are there there might be one floating around, but as far as i know, none here yet. Pretty hard to find.

So yeah, Bayside Blue R34 GT-T,

* Either 18" Bronze TE-37's, R34 GTR Rims, also saw some nice buddy clubs rims.

* Full GTR Kit, compared to number of R33 GTR kits, they are as rare as panda's, and only know that one Green GT-T up for sale last year which had gone down this path.

* GTR Front Bar, GTR rear wing. Not sure if side skirts are different. Not sure if custom front bar can be made to fit without the GTR guards. Will also need to cut the standard bonnet, or fit GTR bonnet.

* Make it a full TRACK car. Kick ass brakes, suspension, and concentrate on making the car really responsive, i know u can get the full boost to around 2800rpm with some mods. Want it to be a full TWISTIES king.

I think the standard R34 GTR guise is the best kit possible. Subtle but mean. Not a very big fan of any of the GT-T kit's i've seen, a lot of them are VERY 2f2f.

Well that's my plan if i got a car. But dream is obviously a R34 GTR, and as soon as i'm outta uni, proper job, i'm gonna find a way to get one. Should be around high $60's mid $70K's by that time.

Never gonna feel like i should be posting on these forums, or going to cruises without actually having a Skyline, and i would LOVE to throw common sense/logic out the window and just get the car and not worry about the house. But i guess i'm starting to realise that i'm in a pretty good position to set myself up for later on in life. But f*ck, i would KILL for a R34 GT-T, and pretty much dream of driving one every night.

cheers.

If I cant get insurance for a decent price I wont even contemplate buying a 34
