The guys name is Jo

[sl33py]

Far out Alex!! Last I heard you just needed a new turbo!! YIKES. Good to see your pushing on though Guess your not too worried about pedals any more!

[INVRTD]

yeah im deffinantly going to have chat to them when im ready, they seam to be the best value for money and do a good job,

but for now talking and learning, is what needs to be done

[BNR32t]

yeah mate,

Well, i rate my motor... and its just on its run in tune. Joe, is really good. Works fast and best of all you can look at my car to see there work.

[INVRTD]

hahha pedals yeah, and all the other stuff i wanted to do, grrrr, but ay s&*t happens as they say,

yeah be good to see there work, hmmm gonna see if i can make some more money somehow over web ill look at upping my kilowatts expectations

[slaughter]

this sucks dude, i would go rebuild also, i have been through too many dud engines that i could have rebuilt and go more power and peace of mind (well more so then a second hand engine)

Nurse it around or use buses while you save your pennies for a rebuild, i may be looking at something similar shortly but not sure yet, ive been down the whole modifiying road and it wasnt as fun as i thought it would be.

[INVRTD]

yeah i dont wanna spend the big $$$ for more power stock is fine for me, i just want it not to be broken

[INVRTD]

ay saw this group buy

how much would you guys think it would cost to have this in the car good to go again???

thanks alex

[BNR32t]

Do it... Some good stuff in there...

Plus 1.5g's to get the engine taken out and put in. (you should be able to get it cheaper than that.)

[INVRTD]

yeah im saving the penies, not going to drive much so not gonna spend to big on fuel, tax back will help and selling my car back home, hopefully the start of the year while im on a training ex i can get it underway, ill have to have a chat with the skyline performance guys and see how it would pan out

would i require a dyno yune after this ?? and also if i get those parts, with a bigger turbo i could up the boost ???

[BNR32t]

Yes you would be able to get quite a power gain.

I would advise a tune, thats another $600. but as long as you keep the same injectors and airflow meters its not going to be urgent

[INVRTD]

cool thanks for the info mate,

well if anyone needs or knows some helping hands for a fair price let me know,

im good for general labour, gardening anything you guys dont wanna do for yourself,

[INVRTD]

ay guys im off to victoria tomorrow and probs wont have any interweb connection so ill catch you guys in too weeks, so play safe

regards alex

[MANG]

hey, a friend of mine is selling an rb25 with around 50,000 on it for 2.5k if your interested

[sl33py]

I'll SMS that to him tonight (no phone atm), so he gets the message.

[INVRTD]

if going path of rebuild what other items besides whats below should i considure, i dont wanna open it up again, im looking at long term 400rwkw mark, going to do it all in in little parts at a time, so far engine rebuild would contain.

CP Pistons

Eagle Rods

Tomei Heads Gasket

ARP Head studs

[TiTAN]

New oil pump, new water pump, new bearings, possibly new main studs., new head studs, complete gasket kit, change the cams, possibly a solid lifter conversion. and other bits and pieces. 400rwkw isn't cheap.

Will also need to upgrade clutch, possibly gearbox internals, diff.

And there is probably more i haven't remembered.

[INVRTD]

yeah your right there, i think it would be more appropriate if i aim at the strong and safe 280 mark. i should be able to get that off a gtrs as well, and use the stock planum, would considure cut and plug for a forward facing planum cut some piping out to increase response.hmmmm so many options.

have already got

new

**oil pump,

**new water pump,

**upgraded clutch

whats the difference between main and head studs

what are you reffering to with regard to these pieces

**new bearings,

**a solid lifter conversion

[TiTAN]

280kw off a GT-RS? unlikely, more 3037/GT3076R territory.

[TiTAN]

You will need new big end bearings and new bearings for the crank. If you wanted to run ~400kw you would probably run some decently high lift cams and you need to get rid of the factory hydraulic lifters and get a solid lifter conversion to do that (tomei make them).

+ associated machining and assembly costs.
