Just wondering where the bar is set in the way of unopened RB26's in Australia ?

When I say un-opened I mean stock cam's, cam gears, oil pump and etc too.

Just bolt on big turbo(s), inejctors, ecu and the like.

Don't care what car its in, hey even a rail.

The timeslip list on here is pretty thin.

As far as I can tell the HPI list all the 26's are pretty much full house. Same deal with the Full boost lists.

So uncracked Rb26 owners, whats your 1/4 mile PB ?

there was a gtst that ran 10's unopened a couple of years back.... so there HAS to be a fair few R's

there's a great thread somewhere... i'll search later

everyone gave him shit and said it'll blow up etc etc.... but he did it!

11.8 here

car made 289kw at SAU dyno day

but im pretty sure someone in vic ran 11.5

EDIT: got the ET wrong it was 11.8

only mods were power fc, exhaust and boost controller. FC tune was a base map with injector correction...lol

Interesting that (aside from Manny Cruz) the fastest stock internal RB25 and RB26 times are usually very similar. In NZ the fastest stock RB26 I know of is high 10s, vs 10.6 for the fastest stock RB25, vs ~8.9 for the fastest stock bottom end RB30 (had twin cam head).

    • So my R32 GTST has been sitting around at my old mum and dad's place for a few years now...and it's time to bring it home. Main issue I have is that she hasn't been started in about 5 years or so, so I'm not too keen on just kicking it over and hoping that RB20 reputation for being un-killlable extends to long periods of neglect. My plan is to get it running there so I can move it around,  then get it towed back to my place where I can start working on it properly. The old folks driveway is a bad place to start a project like that. I'm getting old too and also haven't stuffed around with cars since forever, so kinda learning this stuff again. So far I've siphoned out all the shitty old fuel and topped up the coolant (thought it was fully dry but took 2 litres to fill the radiator). Planning on hitting the rusty rotors with some brake cleaner in case the tow truck driver gets a bit gung ho loading it up. As far as oil, it's got plenty although it's now dark in colour and obviously needs a change sooner rather than later. Was doing some YouTube research and was planning to hand-crank the motor from the harmonic balancer with a 37mm socket and breaker bar, removing the spark plugs and spraying some "fogging oil" in the holes but there's not much room to get in there with the radiator fan right up against it. Jacking the car up takes too long and I can't leave it half done between visits. So now I'm was thinking of cranking a few times it using the starter (removing plugs and spraying oil first). Reckon there's any chance it will do more damage that way if something's stuck inside the motor? Should I really change all fluids completely before I go any further? Grateful for any other advice you guys have to get her going safely too.      
    • Well, that's just wierd. Amongst a string of seemingly benign introduction and request for help threads, we have this one with a link.... to another, unrelated thread inside this forum. Colour me suspicious.
    • Sorry to say, I think that is a pretty long shot on this forum.....
    • sorry, "info" from Lumley here: https://www.lsvcarinsurance.com.au/about-nrma-insurance
    • So it looks like Lumleys are closing other than in Victoria, with the kind offer that another brand from the evil IAG multi-glomerate (NRMA) might offer insurance under their price and conditions if they want to, as an alternative. Lunmleys was good for us because they covered JDM and USDM imports, had 2 car "stable" insurance (ie, insure many cars but max of 2 can be driven at once), covered mods, reasonable overall prices. So, with them gone, who else should I consider? Shannons is last on my list, we used to be insured with them until we found they were helpful at taking premiums but much less helpful at claim time.
