Lol, but how would I get the cams to work?

VQ25 FTW... :thumbsup:

Just sleeve yours out! Wouldn't that work? Then just use some of the darton sleves with some bigger pistons / tomei rods and bolt it all back with your heads.

Work or not?

Your growing an engine farm down there, so just build one of the spare short blocks!:P

I could sleeve it out, I have a 3.5 engine here too, but why would I want a longer stroke or a larger piston when i'm making 335kw already? C'mon mate you really need to catch up... :nyaanyaa:

I will probably drop the 2.5dd in if this engine ever retires. High comp, e85 and direct water injection to control the piston temps. :whistling:

Did you want the dyno queen status, or want me to go faster than 13.9? tongue.gif

Hahaha. Think your car is good for it Alex? Wind the wick up and see what she will do, you got to beat 13.5. Can you take off with wheelspin yet? >_<

My takeoff would be fixed by simply opening up the stator on the torque converter but I don't want to go down that path. I want a fast street car not drag.

Lol. Yeah it actually does it I launch it with full boost. Maybe a product of the single spinner buttongue.gif

I have too much mechanical sympathy to flog it hard. I'm going to order some stuff, and then back to the tuner. Might go to the track in between though. Craig has to get to the tuner- cause he want to post a time too with the emanage in.

Painted the slats after the side rear windows black and the lower section of the dayz rear bar black also.

Be interested to see more photos of the roof when you get time. Don't you hate it how you have to start from the bottom and work your way up.

Haven't fully removed roof lining yet but am going to. Here is shot of the rear roof section that i've removed the lining from.

I was a little frustrated at first and then I quite enjoyed stripping everything out as there was alot of heavy stuff !! I also found a japanese receipt under the rear seat (anyone know what it is from ?)

post-58831-0-44875800-1333965787_thumb.jpg

I also sanded and polished my neo badge as it was unrecognisable !

I first used 1200 sandpaper on a block of cork. Then I used a scotch brite pad with autosol, lastly autosol and a rag. I also polished up a dull front head light with autosol and a polish mop on my 18v ryobi drill.

Fuel receipt eh ? cool !

Before with tomei M7655 twins which were laggy and very tame onto boost

post-86035-0-08027500-1334234663_thumb.jpg

Now with the GT3582R (.82) rear, precision 48mm waste gate ,Platinum Pro ecu, 044 fuel pump and ID1000's. Should be a big improvement. hope the clutch holds up

New hi-flow turbo in transit to me so was under the car to pull out the old one with the blown oil seal. The first thing I see was a split drivers side CV boot & the grease spun out everywhere. Great just what I need - more work.

Then, over on the passenger side I see this:

I wonder how this got knocked out of centre?? So, what's the recommended fix? (Big hammer, lol).

Found a small stone chip in my drivers side headlight today. Fuuuuuu.....

Considering the $2500 cost from Nissan, I've live with it. Its small and over the indicator, no hole or anything just a little crack.

Felt so sorry for it, spent the next 45mins or so polishing up the headlights to keep that nasty yellow shit away. :rolleyes:

That is exactly the same as my passenger side. Im putting in new ones tomorrow I just had to wait to get on a hoist. I wouldn't bother hitting it I hit mine back and within 2 days it was back.

Yep; the centre has been torn out of that bush. She's f**ked.

Leon, I've got a fresh set of Whiteline ones that were due to go into my car shortly; if you like, PM me, and I'll send 'em up. :thumbsup:

      High temp brake fluid?

      By Komdotkom · Posted

      Reasonably hard, although I haven't run it with the new Endless setup yet. The old brakes were F50's on 335mm rotors and the car did a 1:40.6 at Phillip Island which is a reasonable time, I'm seeing high 600s on the temperature paint. A guy I know ran the Endless fluid at WTAC without issues and he was doing 1:33's I think (Evo) with a 355/332 setup. I don't get out to the track as much as I'd like but we put the car on the hoist and spanner check every bolt and re-paint mark everything, bleed the brakes, change the fuel, check the coolant system and re-bleed blah blah blah before every event. Motorsport is expensive, RB's are expensive so a couple of hours before an event is time well spent. It's also a net time saving because if you can keep your RB from self destructing it saves you time in the long term!

      Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!

      Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!

      HKS Vcam Step Pro Issues

      By believer · Posted

      I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
