Hey guys got myself a 31 with forged motor and a whole load of other stuff, kinda looks like crap atm but with a good few months of TLC and upgrades

this will be an awsome car.

Specs on the current motor

Rebuilt by Phil Collier himself, at Collier engines in Adelaide

Forged pistons, standard size (forgot brand ROSS i think?)

ACL race series bearings

450cc injectors

nisstune computer

adjustable fuel reg

front mount cooler

multi layered steel head gasket

decked block

full balance

bored out throttle body

turbo cam

3 inch mandrel bend turbo back exhaust with high flow cat, custom dump all 3 inch

lightened fly wheel

well im looking at doing a 25/30 or a 26/30 build depends on what i find thats cheaper lol,

I've read u shouldnt rev RB's past 7000 so im looking for mid range power and really intense handling

Im a mechanic myself so alot of the work will be done backyard styles, but still done properly! :whistling:

An s13 front end conv to get better handling there, r32 steering rack, not 100% sure on what can be done at the rear, but i need waaay bigger wheels with billet axles

and some kind of unbreakable diff ( more research needed before i make a dec on that side)

but yea will hope it can do 1:10 at LALA, lol my driving force is i was told its impossible without spending 50k and even harder in a 31.....so im gonna prove em wrong lol :domokun:

      Speaking of diverting threads, my second ever NISMO purchase…. I think they look pretty classy and just wanted to share 😅   PS: 1st was the oil drain plug 😂

      Need AC Compressor for R32

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      R12 has not been not available for....decades now. Propane is not a great replacement. (I mean, it's a great replacement, but it is a bit too flammable). R134a being the only way to go forward with an R12 system. The design pressures etc, are close enough to R12's to work. The ability to move heat around is close enough to R12's to work.

      Out of curiosity, what's the reason for converting? I think @R3N3 might have the Frenchy's kit in the R33? I somehow think of you as the ambassador for realistic and clean street-driven setups nowadays

      V35 Overheat + Coolant Boil & Overflow + Engine not Starting

      By V35_Paul · Posted

      careful when running the car after a boil over. Ive heard you can lose enough coolant that it won't show the right temps because of too much air in the system (or something like that). Make sure the levels are good before trying again.  Maybe a mobile mechanic can come have a look with their scan tool ?

      OK, just for some extra clarity - there is more than one option at Frenchy's. 1. You can buy the whole kit - with or without the actual compressor. The whole kit includes mounts, hoses, condensor, etc. That's either ~$2200 or ~$2800. No surgery required with this option. 2. You can buy just the bracket (~$600), or the bracket with the compressor (~$1200). Either of this or the above option "without the compressor" is if you already have an Echo comp or you are able to source one locally. Whatever the case, in this option, you will need surgery done on your hoses to adapt to the new compressor. When I said "the Frenchy's kit", I meant the whole kit in option 1. It is obviously somewhat more $$ than a $1500 OEM compressor. But if I had to spend $1500 on an OEM compressor, I would certainly consider spending double that to renew and significantly update everything forward of the firewall. Another option is to rebuild your original compressor. My R34 comp is currently dead and I will be most likely doing that to it if the spare one in the shed is also leaky.
