Dirty 30 Toby, do it

Thought about it or put in a rb26 crank and go 2.7L but going to keep it simple and under budget

how exactly does one melt coilpacks anyway?

Not sure brah, would be curious to know what sort of plastic yellow jacket coilpacks are made from and what its respective melting point is

[Odium]

All I know is, if there was that much heat coming off the head that it melted the coil packs... I'd be looking for a new head

Valentines day is coming up.... Not sure why there is 8 of them, must be two spares...

you should contact the guy that bought my car and see if the motor / turbo setup is available.

he lives in bundaberg and has said that due to the floods he is not going to be buiilding a new car for the moment.

I have no idea if the car went under or not but i could ask i spose

i can give you the number if you want.

S1 R33 into a R34... ok.

[CrispyFries]

Given how much extra power it makes I don't think it matters...

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

S1 R33 into a R34... ok.

it's a stagea motor...

so 26 block, 5.5lt alloy sump, 70,000km and was on an auto before my car.

Has rediculous compression and response = 18psi by 3200 with the 2835

well better than most stock 34 motors you might find

[joeyjoejoejuniorshabadoo]

the chassis on my car was 200,000+ no way i'm suggesting he buys a motor of that age lol

[Odium]

Ohhh I thought you'd just modded up the motor from your S1.

Statement, retracted.

S'all good hambo!

I have a mate that will be doing my rebuild, so getting everything on the cheap cheap. Will just need to supply parts and let him do his magic

But i'll definately keep it in mind if everything is completed farked and I need to buy just a motor

I'm considering a skyline again, and I live near knox... crazy?

Not as close as Pat though, so maybe ok?

[Down_Shift]

Anyone recommend chaning coilovers without having a breaker bar?

Or just WD40 it all the way?

[Count Grantleyish]

Jack handle as a breaker bar if possible.

Otherwise, WD40 and loads of muscle.

You'll be fine, just go the long way.

[CrispyFries]

Well I don't go through knox to get to work, so that's a plus
