Hard luck rep

Seems there a fair few of us around that like finding the limits of the standard internals of the rb25.....One of you should write a book "What happens when you have too much power and not enough strength"

After your rebuilds, do any of you find it annoying to drive around a 250+rwKw skyline everyday???

Thanks guys , but be warned "This recipe can leave a BAD aftertaste!"

for desert......Arais forgies , rb26rods with a sprinkle of ARP rod bolts :(

Sounds good, dont forget the full balance and O rings. Got the same rig in mine. Bearings I put in were ACL race SR20 Big End and RB30 mains. $140 for the set. Do seals as well. Front and rear all are same as RB30 so 3 front oil pump seals and 1 rear main

I'd say every 'serious' 25t owner gets a taste of this.....some of us twice for a total of 6 dead pistons. :)

Thanks Fane , but the only gas on board that day was the gas eeking outta my butt!

Hoe Train... any exuse for forgies :D

Packy , I'll let you know if living with 250rwkw gets boring ...or if I get arrestted! (more likely)

Skylinegeoff .... All new bearings , seals & belts even "O" ringing block...just cause I Can :burnout:

my right spins when im turning right (in a drift or something), im thinking my diff is ****ed :P

straight-line and full left and a bit to the right it locks up 2 wheels great but as soon as i start turning a bit more to the right during a burnout (on private roads) it open wheelers :( thats a ****ed diff right?

Get a cylinder of industrial oxygen, add an injector on full pulse with a throttle position sensor to switch it all on at full throttle.

Crude but effective. Took a 1.8l Laser Lynx from 10 sec 0-100 to 7 sec flat on stock intake and exhaust, but damn did it burn some plugs out. I'd hate to see the piston tops :(

Geoff your a phsyco fker!! :( i like that

teach me more!! :P

Apparently so....

Thread Hijack!!!!

then put a 30mm sway bar on the rear (custom from whiteline) and watch as every connected component destroys itself, subframe, coilover mounting points, until you have to weld nice solid brackets in place to compensate for the stresses on track...even the handbrake light locked on with the chassis flex.

Oh and then fabricate a custom 2.5 inch straight through exhaust, no cat, no mufflers and a 80mm pod filter through poly drain custom intake then listen to the music :D:D:D

rep...sounds like your build will be nice. PFC too?

R33 Impul ,well, since you STOLE the car I was trying to buy from Paul @ Autoworks a while back now , I'm Not gonna tell ya!!

JK ,tho we were bidding on the same car :D

ALLFAST converters in Perth , talk to Simon , sounds like he knows his stuff! or wait til mine is done and you can take it for a drive :D

Shit sorry bout stealing your car Dude :P

But it would be great if you could take me for a drive when yours is done.

Sorry to go a bit of topic but I have heard that in Jappa's they can fit a 4 speed o/d auto box from a patrol in skylines, have you heard bout this?

I was thinkin bout looking into putting as tip tronic from a R34 in but where to start?...... :spcow:

    • Sorry for reviving an old post, but I'm having the same hot idle tick issue. Did anyone ever find out what it was?  I have checked/ replaced Injectors Coils checked Lifter clerance (is at zero) Checked Cam lobes Replaced exhaust gasket and studs Would appreciate any advice this is driving me nuts  
    • There's a huge reason manufacturers are tuning in dead flat torque curves... Make them reliable (and more drive able)
    • What HVAC actuator is under the steering wheel? Do you mean on the RHS of the centre console, immediately to the left of your shin? If so, then yes, it is probably that one, because that is the mode door actuator, and from what I know, it's still a pain in the arse to replace. I don't know about whole dash out, but you certainly have to rip into the centre console section. I don't know if it's covered in the workshop manual, as I haven't spent much time looking at those parts of it. (and by "the workshop manual, I mean the R32 GTR one, which is the most comprehensive one we have, and it should be similar enough between that and later cars to serve as a guide).
    • ...oops. forgot the TCU end...
    • No I got mine from a friend that had fabricated one … but I had to fit it to my setup which was a hks turbo setup. His was a Garrett -7. So one of my turbos was not a flange for one side … then I had a leak in the welds I had to find a weld shut … in the end the setup was decent priced but I spent a lot to get it fitted. A couple companies I checked would make it but you’re talking 7-9k aud with titanium. No joke mine was 6-7k even second hand after I had to fit it in Hong Kong … labour is expensive here.
