32 GTR owner Paul... (heavy stirring/sarcasm).

Be interesting to see how a Racepace GTR goes @ Wakefield in Nov against interstate GTR's, the proof of the pudding might well be in the eating perhaps? :merli:

Yea but knowing race pace, you mite as well buy a jap kit, because it will most Likly be cheaper than the gold plated parts u get from race pace

I do believe the point of developing their own is substancially lower the cost compared to say a full HKS kit, which we can all agree is quite exxy :thumbsup:

Mine sure isn`t. 3.125 in. at the smallest point in the muffler. weak. the welds and flanges are rusty, the piping is painted, and every flange has a step down in size.

That's a bit low Deano.

Atleast they work... IE the exhausts unlike the junk you get off the shelf from Japan. :P.

Yea true, but they super expensive dude, $5600 I got quoted for a mild steel 4inch system, plus postage.

That's a lot of cash for a exhaust man.

Thats not a lot of cash that is a joke.

Nothing special about a stroker kit, especially a 2.8... an extra 200cc is exactly that no secrets although it is nice to claim there is so you can claim a premium price!

To the OP, if you were serious I would get in touch with GTRNUR, what he has done with his RB26/30 I believe to be one of the best ways to go.

Yeah how dare HKS charge such an exorbitant amount for a 2.8l kit when its 200cc

well, for spool to supply me a stroker kit, and a FULL gasket kit with a tomei HG, oil restrictor and billet oil pump gears it was under 6k delivered to my door. I dunno if i got lucky or i was just charged the normal price, but in my books, thats a pretty sweet deal.

Blah Blah Blah Blah :)

Nothing like pre-event shit talking :D

A billet fully counterweight crank is $3-4k (regardless of stroke).. plus rods, plus pistons.

Made where though?

In Asia where HKS have their cranks made... I do believe it's not that high.

Good question... have you been there to know the answer? Or do they still use Farndon in the UK to make crankshafts.

Farndon make cranks (and other engine components) for a few Jap co's, such as HKS, JUN and A'Pex'i. I am sure that they still make them for HKS - Step 3 billet cranks; The forged Step 0 to Step 2 aren't made by Farndon. But who knows....could be made in Taiwan or China these days :D

Indeed! From what I can gather, HKS RB stroker cranks have been coming out of Asia for quite a while ;)

Whether that's all of the line up, or just some, remains to be seen.

Pretty sure others have said similar before so sounds resonable, although only 2.7 - wish for same $$ there was a 2.8/2.9 - would be even better value.

Means the cranks aren't costing anywhere near 4k either way when you can get that price delivered. Even 3k you'd argue! :)

A lot of them advertise 90 mm or whatever but fail to say the smallest point in the muffler is 2.5 inch.

depends on the exhaust right? I got a mate with a HKS Hi-Power and I'm sure it's the same size all through.

      Rob's S Chassis track cars. Now with more s15 and less 180sx

      By robbo_rb180 · Posted

      Also did some work to the shed and a massive clean out of stuff. It's now got a small fab/dirty room and has helped keep shed cleaner. Built some new work benches and re organised things also got a TV out there so good having something playing while working on the cars. Got a pedestal drill and linisher off a mate that need to pick up too.

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      First thought, have your current injectors flow tested. If they test fine, keep the diagnostics going. It's not the injectors. If the injectors are the issue, find some new or used (cleaned and flow tested) injectors.  While I really love a good excuse to get a modern ECU installed, just needing new injectors probably isn't a good enough reason to do so.

      A bit from column A, B and C. Mainly C   Update time, after deciding it was time to tick off a bucket list goal I finished up full time at MSR and have gotten back behind the wheel and making progress on the S15. Goal has been to drive Bathurst at an event and I have had my entry accepted for Challenge Bathurst in November. Since I don't want to go unprepared I need it running to test and get comfortable.  Been chipping away at it and started by stripping inside, getting it all cleaned and sealing some holes up. With stripping inside I removed the whole wiring loom and found a few surprises.......... its pretty butchered and shit branching and I'm not a fan of the haltech fuse boxes so it's all out and trying to come up with a plan to rewire it all either new fuse/relay box or pdm.  I haven't been happy with how I did the intercooler mounting and been wanting to tuck it up under rad support. O e issue with that is headlights will need a decent trim or get replacement covers. Took the time to mount it with some stand off's and new hardware. Stands are some m8 button bolts, washer, aluminium tube and factory radiator top mount rubbers. It's nice and solid also stiffens rad support which still requires some trimming. Bonus of factory rad mounting is used all factory hoses just need to weld a pressure cap to radiator now. Got sensor block and fuel filter mounted. Plan today is to get vac lines all sorted with push in nylon tube and design oil cooler mounting solution.  Been driving BRZ a heap and went out to Morgan Park for time attack and went pretty well for a wet day. https://youtu.be/gAlQgcQpWj4?si=kojOAOjhhX_X3AXR Getting pretty comfortable in it now and want to do a few more bits to it but restraining myself as don't need 2 race cars at the moment.

      Anyone know this frontpipe?

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      @sunsetR33 There is obviously a huge culture gap here. There is nothing in place like this in Australia, where if you fit a Mines branded pipe and later replace it with a Jun branded pipe, both pipes are essentially identical - BAM - huge penalties! Where is the Mines pipe?? You can't have a Jun pipe when you said you had a Mines pipe!  Makes no sense to me. Surely makes no sense to anyone else here either.  I'm sure a lot of us would agree that our registration/engineering system is pretty stupid at times, but it's not that stupid.  *** More serious question here. If you replace a factory rubber hose with a silicone hose, is the car illegally on the road now? Does it become legal if you have certification of what brand the silicone hose is? Then would it become illegal again if you replaced that silicone hose with a difference brand of silicone hose? And then would it become legal again if you had certification of the new brand of silicone hose?  I really want to know that answer to that question.

      Good you making progress with this rig. Aluminium welding is painful to learn, have you got a pedal as I found it so much easier with one. If that's the AMG I think it is, you would working with Benny?
