What the hell is in the r32 at the 4min 18sec mark?

Another RIPS RB30'd car?

Lol, yeah thats Joes GTR, runs mid to low 10s and on that run I gave him a good head start so I could wind the old turbo up for a nice wheelie, lol.

Joes been around in that car for a long time and its bloody quick for a full weight streeter, he's a top bloke too.

I remember after one race we had about a year ago, he came up to me and said in a joking way said he was pissed off and going home casue he'd never been passed by someone who was on the back wheels before, lol, it was real funny at the time.

So close to the RB26 record :)

Whats Marks best time and mph now? any idea of the weight and whp of his car?

I'd love to get on a decent Aussie track, Reece is very sure we'd drop 2-3 10ths and gain 5-10mph on your FAR superior strips.

Not 100% sure, dirtgarage will know for sure, but isnt 7.57 still the record?

Ah, I thought you ment Mark, Yeah Reece has run 7.57 in Aussie but I'm not sure if he was still 26 or not.

We have run very close to Reeces quickest NZ time so thats good enough for me in what is basicly a back 1/2 street car.

      Yeah, you are right. It seems easier and more reasonable to boost the engine. And as you said the blocks are very similar but the cylinder bores are different.

      Anyone know this frontpipe?

      By sunsetR33 · Posted

      Sound logic, but in actuality way more illegal than just having the wrong pipe. Normally, doing something like that would be forgery. Meaning you may have certain documentation for vehicle parts, but the actual parts are different ones and you just assign them the numbers and badging from the documents. But nevermind that. Nonetheless, I AM curious if this pipe was ever made by any official manufacturer this way, because I honestly am not familiar with this pipe layout and shape. As I will be putting on the HKS Silent Hi Power once my exhaust gaskets arrive, as long as it sounds right I will just roll with this front pipe. I can always order the actual Mines part if I run into legal issues. It would be an unnecessary expense as there is lots of other problems I have on this car as of now.

      So, weld a plate with the Mines logo laser cut into it, onto it. Instant Mines pipes, whether they were or weren't originally.

      I don't know if the blocks are "the same". They will be very very similar. Obviously, either the bore or the stroke is going to be bigger on the 20. If the bore is bigger, then the 18 head is unlikely to fit properly. If the bore is the same, then you can almost certainly fit the CA18 head, but there migth be a few fun things you have to do to make water galleries (or other things) line up properly. Or... it could just be real easy. Is it worth the effort? Almost certainly not. You can make nearly as much power on a 2 valv ehead as you can on a 4 valve. There's not any "magic" in a 4 valve head.
