hey guys, decided to finally sign up after lurking on here for awhile. seems to be the best rb info i have found on this site. Since im going to be doing more work to my rb25 i figured id stop by for some ideas.

i drive a 1990 nissan 240sx hatchback with a series 2 rb25det, i did all my own work on this thing from building the engine mounts, to fabricating the full exhaust system, wiring, everything. car is primarly a street car but it did see some track time this past year at some local drift events. it was pretty much a bone stock swap but that is about to change this winter.

plans are to do a gasket refresh and go with a gt3582r, just ordered that and some deatchworks 740cc injectors. im going to probably try out the new haltech pro plug n play system for the r33 rb25.

next year its going to see a a new origin/version select aero, tubed front fenders, tube chasis front end to move the radiator further up to run a clutch fan due to cooling issues. which leads me to my first question. i need a oem fan shroud! anyone know where i can get one?? i'll prob post some pics from my build over the winter up here so you guys can check out the progress.

heres a video from it last year. i put it on the dyno before i ripped it all apart.

it made 289whp and 241 lb/tq on 12psi UNTUNED stock ecu. greddy intake manifold, q45 rb. 3.5 inch straight pipe exhaust. thats about it. motor is MINT i just started doing a tear down and it looks amazing inside.

the car is currently in pieces and is undergoing a huge change for next year. i'll probably post or link to my build thread on other forums. hope to learn something here!

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By MBS206 · Posted

      What blows me away, is watching some of the US guys, like Tony Angelo at Stay Tuned. LS1, buys a set of heads for $1200, drops a mild cam in, pulls all the electrics, drops a basic inlet manifold with a carb, MSD thing for spark, and roll it out to make 550hp.

      God I love shiny engine parts 🥰 Are you looking for more horsetorques in the mid range? (Smaller cam) Or just more horsetorques every where? (Big heads and bigger revs) Assumption: they were not bought late night shopping on the interwebs after drinking too many beers, which is typically how I pull pins on things......🤣 The evolution of your car is coming along nicely, I sometimes wish I didn't get bored with my cars and keep flipping them, maybe the MX5 will be different

      R34 4 door indicator and horn issue

      By Randhj · Posted

      I got the hazards working! Turned out it was disconnected! Indicator stock still isn’t working. I took the steering shroud off and there seems to be a third connection missing I see two small white connectors but they don’t fit the indicator switch unless they need a short lead to convert the connector type. Can someone point me in the direction of the wiring diagram for the indicator switch?   https://share.icloud.com/photos/0e8ReiFSLBVJsTPUKKfA_1IdQ

      Can't put strut back

      By MBS206 · Posted

      All of your suspension bushes/bolts etc, should also only ever be tightened when the car is sitting with full weight too.   IE, jack it back up, shove a heap of stuff down so you can lower the wheels onto so the car is "on the ground" but you have room to get under it.   It's why when properly done, you should be able to remove the shock and spring, but the arms won't go to 100% droop. If you don't do the above, you'll destroy your bushes.
