Bit of an odd question but has anyone on here wired an rb26 engine to run as a standalone? Or kno where i can get the info? Have tried lots of searching and really cant find an obvious solution only got a few days till my car has to be finished and stressing a bit too much at the moment to sit down n figure it all out for myself. Any help would b greatly appreciated.

Anyone keen for a meetup this friday night or perhaps on the weekend? Recently moved to Newcastle and wouldn't mind meeting some new people!

If you are driving an import in Newcastle i would suggest picking your meet point carefully! I probably wont be around Friday but possibly will be on the weekend depending on the weather etc...

If you make a meet up let me know and ill see what i can do :)

Will probably be busy friday at this stage.. starting to work on my house this week so will be flat out for awhile i would say ha.

did pick up my new car on the weekend... got an evo 9... has nothing on the gtr for excitment and driving feel, but is quite comfortable for everyday driving and is abit of fun, and havent had a chance to take it for a good drive yet. It is dual mapped to run on e85 which it goes really well on, but im on pump atm as the closest united with e85 is bloody metford it seems... will do the job for a few years im sure and i think i will like going back to one car.

You can run Eflex... Its at Charlestown, Newcastle etc...

United is only Metford, Necknock and i think there is another one at East Maitland happening too!

Pics of Emo?

Yea its tuned to united e85 though... and from what i have heard the eflex stuff is usually around the e70 mark? and trying to avoid a retune/ getting ethenol sensors etc.. but will see how we go, going to head out to metford for the next tank i think, will see how much better it goes side by side ha.

If you are tuned on E85 you will get away with E70 (Itll just run a bit richer i think)... But you cant do it the other way around E70 --> E85 etc....

It will go a hell of a lot better on the green stuff :yes:

Many mods? Colour? Pics? :D

yea ok, i asked the guy and he said his tuner said its best not to push it too hard on eflex, but i didnt really believe much of what he said anyways haha... might need to track down the tuner and ask him about it...

yea i did the test drive when it was on e85, couldnt really open it fully up in surburban sydney but it felt very fast ha. supposedly has 275awkw on e85, and 250ish on 98, although i think it feels slower than the gtr i think which had 242... so im guessing it might be around the 220-230 mark possibly...

it has full exhaust, dump pipe, pod filter, injectors, fuel pump, rotors, clutch, ebc, bov, slotted rotors, all intercooler piping... think that is about everything, the guy didnt seem positive about exactly what was done, dont think he did the work to it. its black.. no pics yet sorry, will take some soon and throw them up.

Sounds good man, who is the tuner?

Haha, did you get kicked out of the QLD section and decide to come stalk NSW? ;)

Nah not kicked out, just nothing going on so I've been stalking around everywhere. Couldn't find the nsw whore thread so thought this one was as good as any

Yer it's going well man since I got the cam swap done. Had it out to downshift at Queensland raceway a couple weeks ago which was fun. Chopped a lot of cars and also got chopped a bit.

Here's a video: http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=QZmDEw66Ecg

And one of me racing a v8 m3 god it sounded nice: http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=zbD8-oxtWAU

Will be getting a gutfull of nitrous in the coming months ;)

How's your rig coming along man? That neo still holding together lol

    • Hey all, not sure how active SAU is anymore but will ask away anyways. Just wanted to get some experience on the 2008 model GTR CBA model.  I've hit that age in my life (43) where I'm like fk it time to get my dream (midlife crisis) car. Looking at importing one in and seeing if these can be reliable if the main flaws are fixed up. Plan is to keep money aside to do the following straight off the bat to future proof it: * install a stage 1 rebuilt trans with all new bits and pieces.  * install a new Bellhousing from the later model GTRs. Or potentially an upgraded stronger version like MAD or ATR. Besides the above two things and typical maintenance items anything else you'd recommend doing.   Been speaking to a few people and the engine on these are very reliable apparently. But keen on the view of the community here. Hoping to find a nice grade 4.5 with low mileage in Grey. I'd go black but swirls too easy. Look forward to your responses and feedback. Cheers    
    • Do Alan and Keith work on Skylines now? I remember buying stuff from them when I owned my Ralliart Lancer a few moons ago. Definitely genuine guys and be excellent if they dealt with the skyline platform as well.
    • Hey all, I'm Gaston from Sydney's West.  I was a member on here when I was a younger lad and owned a mint R33 GTS-T. Ended up selling it and getting married having kids (yadda yadda) we all know how the story goes. Now I'm back with the intention to get my midlife crisis (dream) car ... a R35 GTR.  You'll see me about asking questions and searching the forums. Good to be back and can't wait to get back an Import again.
    • I have to put something here in order to post the photos. From what I could gather there's more enthusiasm for modified cars now than there has been for years. There were probably more younger people there than older (me included lol) which was a good sign.  It did seem like the record least amount of representation of the 90's era hero cars on display though. Like maybe one or two examples of S-chassis Nissans, and maybe 3 or 4 R-chassis. By comparison there were a lot of Civics from that era but in all there were about 10 - 12 EG/EK Civic Type R.  Euro exotics are always there in large numbers, led by Liberty Walk...... say what you will about kids using markers to scribble on a Ferrari F40, it did seem like a stunt to infuriate Ferrari enthusiasts, or Ferrari itself. I wonder if there's something more to it. Either way LBWK have done some heinous things to a Lamborghini Miura this time. They should stop now.
    • Engines and drivelines are not war stoppers for me mate, busted arse bodies and un-obtainium parts and panels are though Both cheap Brumbies I looked at had trashed tubs and a fair bit of rust
