holy crap thats gonna be one to watch out for... if i manage to bust my 26 i'd love to look into that option. I do wonder whats involved tho, especially with mating up the gearbox and clearance for the front shafts etc. I guess if i blow it and do the VH41/45 option id go RWD.

See brenten - the possibilities are endless!

:-( yeah.. ahh know... but i'll put off the inevitable as long as possible. Monthly oil change, decent fuel, and try to keep the crazy driving to a minimum. The 8,000RPM redline... do you really need to rev it up in that range micah? how does yours go?

no limiter at 8,000....? you can take it to 9????? WTF... thats huge.

tacho and avc-r read 8800-9000 before limiter hits: I assume the FC allows you to extend the redline...?? Thought it was normal: I still have the RB25 instruments installed.

260 tach reads to 10k. Wont know til its installed - first pfc ive ever had.

recommend tuner?

Probably Matty Spry, on the Gold Coast. Mine was tuned at SAS in Sydney...

We should probably continue this outside of this guy's thread!

I was going to do that vh45-auto rwd, I found a front cut checked it all out could forsee a few problems like sway bar and rack clearance issues and many others, so I went for the 26+5speed instead now that thats running I wish I did the v8. it would have been cheaper and more original and just as much work as the rb26 and 5 speed conversion. maybe my next project will be vh45 powered? oh and when I say it would have been cheaper is cause I do all my own work and infinty front cut for 3k half the price of a gtr front cut...

Oh and back on topic, if you drive a stagea you will be more attractive to the opposite sex :D

    • We have some genuine Japanese legally decommissioned car number plates now in stock 🙂 Add some legitimately obtained JDM style to your Skyline or other Japanese model, or simply as a garage/man cave decoration! About the 40mm hole: The Ministry of Land, Infrastructure & Transport in Japan recognised the popularity of keeping decommissioned plates among car enthusiasts and came up with a method to "destroy" (or render them unusable for street use) while still retaining their collectable/usable value for display etc.  We have 40mm hole covers available to cover the hole nicely with a Sakura motif, which are also available in white in (very!) limited quantities, however they frequently sell out. Please let me know if you're wanting one or more of these and I'll check availability. The Sakura motif covers are more common. https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/genuine-decommissioned-japanese-vehicle-number-plate-set-su-7515 https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/genuine-decommissioned-japanese-vehicle-number-plate-set https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/genuine-japanese-vehicle-number-plate-400mm-hole-cover *Please note that we can't obtain particular number or area name (eg: "Gunma 500 Fu ・86") if requested. All plates are provided as they become available after decommissioning. 
    • Ah, fair enough. For the IAT, I'm using a legit GM sensor that was used on the car prior to my current build. I'll get another wideband and IAT ordered and follow up when they show up. Thanks for the help.
    • You shouldn't need to massively fatten up the mixtures for cold conditions. For one thing - 0°C is not that cold. For another, the Haltech will be using the IAT sensor to tell it how dense the air air, and calculate the correct amount of fuelling. Then the cold start enrichment is added as a % on top of that, so it should scale with the main fuelling. You might also doubt the IAT sensor at this time. You're not using one from an RB26 are you? Using a nice Bosch sensor or similar? Happens. Some wideband units take great pleasure in killing their sensors. Put another wideband in the tailpipe and compare. Or just swap the sensor to a brand new one and see.
    • Oh, my misunderstand. When the car was running, it sounded ok, but if I gave it any gas it wanted to die but caught itself afterwards. It's very different from how it was a couple months ago when it was warmer outside. The logs show that the AFRs are better during, what I assume, is warmup enrichment. Because it's cold, and air is more dense, should I work on the enrichment bit?
    • yess of course im not using 2nd hand parts from my spare engine, but the place where i live is hard to find parts for the RB20DET ,but for the RB20E is everywhere including new ones and a lot cheaper ,because for the RB20DET you have to order it overseas to get one and it cost a lot of money 3x the price to be exact. so i ask this topic because if i can use the new ones but for RB20E is it compatible or not. if not im screwed haha, not totally screwed but i have to save a lot of money first before i can begin repairing my engine, thanks for the information before.
