The time has come to rebuild.

I currently am trying to gather data on what i will need to support the stupid amounts of boost i want to put thru the new motor.

i currently have r34n1's - gt2860-?? but they have been high flowed to accommodate a 5mm larger front wheel so are a bit larger than normal spec.

i want to pump atleast 2bar thru them, currently they were pumping about 1.4-1.5bar

what bottom end am i going to need to cop the abuse? this rebuild will probably take up most of this year. and will be doing as much myself as i can.

and other parts required for rebuild purposes?

i'd probably want to spend around 8k on the motor..

cheers

Is it a stock motor currently?

from what i know, 33n1 pistons, n1 oil pump, cams and the rest is a bit unknown untill i pull it down.

i'd probably want to go with another oil pump to jun etc. and hope that there are baffles etc in the motor already.

i'm thinking of doing rods, pistons, oil pump, head and might modifiy the sump at my friends work to hold some moar oil.

Well ive just been down that path so lets see, maybe these numbers can help you out?!

Pistons (CP) $1200

Rods (if you go eagle and stay 2.6L) $700

Jun pump $1300 from CRD or $200 less if you know the right person

Baffles - depends on what you get. The trust sump extension is a good price for what you get, $450 delivered (nengun)

Head - $1500

It ads up fast doesnt it

      Seemed to be good when Jeff owned it but they did a shit job on my car, probably worth a think before spending 10's of thousands of dollars where they might be cutting corners

      Starting with issues 1 - 5, we have already run into a problem...!  Issue #4 contained 2x front brake calipers, instead of 1 caliper and 1x steering knuckle. Will have to call DeAgostini on Monday to sort it out. Anyway here's some photos.  Issue #1 is the front bumper, headlights and number plate. Issue #2 is the front wheel (with "We produced with spartan air." text on the centre cap!) and tyre, the front lip spoiler and cylinder head cover with ignition coils under the centre cover... which will never be seen again. Issue #3 is the bonnet and cylinder head. Issue #4 is the front strut, brake disc (with laser etched metal discs) and brake caliper. I stopped here because of the issue with the missing steering knuckle.  Next update will be #5 - #10 in a few weeks.

      DeAgostini is one of a few companies that release quite large (the largest commonly available size actually) 1/8 scale models in a series of weekly issues over 100 - 110 instalments.  They release different models for different markets and DeAgostini Japan have release the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo last month. I've made two of these 1/8 scale sized cars (one an R35 GT-R from 2012 - 2014, the other I'm just about halfway through, a BNR34 Skyline GT-R from the 2Fast 2Furious movie) so when this R32 was announced there was no way I could ignore it as it's my favourite out of all Nissans.  Each issue costs around $20 so it costs about $2.2K when completed. I suppose it is very expensive for what it is, but the quality and details are really very good, and there are many "gimmicks" like fully functioning exterior and interior lights operated with a remote control, working steering, all doors/bonnet/boot/fuel lid open and close, the side mirrors fold in and it even has a speaker for the engine revving sounds when you turn the lights on.  Each issue comes with a magazine that tells the story of the BNR32 Skyline GT-R Nismo from the first design stages of the BNR32 to Group A homologation and the various racing version that were run in the Japanese Group A and JGTC, and Australian Group A.  So I plan to update the build in this thread 5 issues at a time.  https://deagostini.jp/r32/?srsltid=AfmBOooKjxDc4EUK2rmXqMBPgyHfFJ24s4oEPJBNpnF-lFlsRoW0PE6P
