Engine Rebuild - Questions...

[GTRKat]

I gotta check if I can use those cause says they are R33 and R34 compatible....

[GTRsean]

Some of the smaller hoses are different and you can't use them.

Mark at MRC is trying to get a full set made up through the manufacturers, and just jap is still getting r32 hoses organised too.

Cheers.

Sorry didnt reply sooner

Yeah some wont fit

[GTRKat]

Thats a bit poo. So I take it there's no 1 set that will fit an R32 GTR? Saw some on ebay but I'm a bit worried as to their quality.

[N1GTR]

You could get the justjap one and any that dont fit - buy new from nissan?

Or wait for the proper kit to come out

[N1GTR]

Actually thats a bit fkd - as if no one has made a specific kit by now for the r32 gtr

Maybe its time to look to japan for a kit

[GTRKat]

There's a kit on ebay that says its for an R32 GTR.... Dunno about quality though

[Angus Smart]

probably all made in china like everything else

i've seen full kits for 32 gtr before. it may have been on an american website tho.

this reminds me i also need to buy some. but not too sure what to buy since i have a r34 motor in my 32..

[GTRKat]

Well a mechanic I know thinks he can order me a set. I can't remember what brand he said they'd be but I will keep you posted on it when I find them. I believe that SFS do a kit for the R32 also.

I just read this.... "The RB26DETT is the all time greatest performance engine to date and its amazing performance potential is extracted with the use of the TOMEI RB28 Kit."

Ordered all my parts on Friday, fun times ahead!! Awesomest Christmas present ever this year!!!

Hi Kat

Very Rucky! Well done. What's redline on the RB28? If you're still going with Greg for the build, the 26/30 he built is a gem after 15K in my car so good choice.

Hmm I'm not sure. Will find out soon enough

Still going with Greg for the build so that's awesome to hear!

The rest of my parts arrived today!!!

[INVRTD]

[GTRKat]

3 sleeps to go!!!!!!!!!!

[N1GTR]

Updates?

[Gus-]

if my timing is correct engine would be either out or bout to go out...car then gets moved to be painted and engine gets moved to be built

but hey probs wrong seeing as not my car

[GTRKat]

Well.... I dropped it off to Autotech on Friday.

Engine comes out this week then gets sent to Pro Engines (Please I know there's good and bad stories about Pro Engines enough with the PMs) then on the 3rd it goes on a truck and goes to Capital Collision for the respray. Provided I can get some stocky wheels or something for a week or two while it's at Capital Collision the wheels will come off and go to Wicked Wheels for all the old gutter rash from it's Japan days to be repaired.

All parts are in cept for some hoses, coilpack loom and some dump pipes. Just need to choose the exact final paint colour.

But all the good stuff is now happening! I will post some pics up as we go along

[Gus-]
