I think a rotary would be even harder for the die-hard Nissan enthusiasts to stomach than the Chev.

Chev is easier to fit too... but the 20B would be awesome. I contemplated this too, but in my 180 :P
Both are pretty much hated :D

I used to own a few rotaries, and now have a nissan and an LS1. I just can't make up my mind! ;)

I would love to have a rotary for a race car!! It's on the list to own one day :) or is that a bucket list :P

:blink:

i thought you would like it john ! they are fantastic

please dont tell your time .... you probably went faster in the wet than me in the dry!! lol

actually would be really cool to see how fast you could punt one around oran !! i reckon high 1.15 with no mercy! which would be awsome !

Hehe we are going to organise for another time to have a drive in the dry. I will keep you posted. There computer upgrade gives it another 70kwatw :huh: 290+ standard and 360+ with the Haltech :blink:

see video of R33 GTSt with a 20B in it...

Also 350Z with 20B...

I would go V8 rather than rotary... swore to myself that if I destroyed the RB again it would be Nissan V8 time... with a big SC:)

I don't even need to click the first link to know that it's Pete's burgundy R33. It's a cammy RB and not a rotary - although it fooled a heap of people who watched the video.

***EDIT***

Farkin' LOL at the Youtube comments! Holy crap!

Haha speaking of engine conversions I was really considering at one stage to put an rb25 in the rx :thumbsup:

LOL...NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If that is your car in your post then keep the rotor in it. (oh and looks like a great FC by the way :thumbsup: )

RBs are big , heavy and lazy things, which work well in a Skyline...but. Hell i would say throw a V8 in the FC before an RB :)

I am holding out for R35 GTR V spec, just need sponsor or something or another minor miracle.

What about this car for track weapon? How about a 4wd carbon body, custom V8 with 2 x Hayabusa heads, dry sump, 420hp and only 500kg, awesome aero and very low height and centre fo gravity. Illegal for Superlap though.

Track Beast

they use chain drive from memory. :thumbsup: and it's a fairly light spaceframe, with super light body. and they use tiny very light diffs and I think inboard brakes too from memory.

    • I might have to shoot them an email. Pity the exchange rate is so bad at the moment. BTW, thanks for posting that table makes interesting reading. 
    • Add these Sensors -Wideband, Oil Pressure, Fuel pressure, Intake air temp Good inspection of ignition system of coils, plugs and loom (12v feed and good ground)- a r35 kit is best bang for buck upgrade. A decent tuner should be able to see any issues with the trigger system- a link has good filtering but a good simple upgrade is the nz wiring bolt in kit. Check and replace all the fuel filters- you would be surprised at intank filter after a few years. Also good to check for any leaks on vac hoses and pipe work as has been said. No need to go overboard and spend big $$$ to enjoy the car. A quality tuner is getting harder to find as anyone with a laptop thinks they are a tuner. A link has great features to check sensor voltages and frequency inputs and easy to see live by pressing f12. The link can do a TPS & RPM fuel/ignition mapping on ITB cars then add a 4D table with MAP and ability to add a 5D to it (can help with economy at cruise with wheel speed vs TPS) Where are you located as that will help narrow down a good tuner ?
    • Reviving an old thread, I reckon my stagea is starting to slip. Car usually gets parked on a hill, narrow driveway so cant go up the driveway smoothly, anyhows, lately first gear feels "sluggish"? Not responsive. Feels like I gotta run the engine more than usual to get off the line...  Any recommendations for transmission servicing in Sydney? Or possibly just an excuse to go manual ?
    • Well, moulded carpets should fit well if the buck they use is the right shape. The finish is then just a case of stiching the trim around the edges. Shuoldn't be too hard to get it right. Back in the day, replacement carpets were all "fitted", in that they were stitched together, with cuts and slices taken out to make them form the shapes. Many more opportunities to get it wrong, hence all the concern over good vendors and bad vendors.
