275 Radial R33 Drag Build

[bigmikespec]

Looks good, I asked Kyle if he could do a manifold like that but twin scroll... looks like it would be challenging!

[2rismo]

I wouldn't put anything past them, mate. Some of their custom work is incredible.

This build is taking too long.

Needs wheels up at 300ft action already

Hahaha. Getting there, mate. Crank and valvetrain bits being sent off to Pro Built Engines in QLD today.

[NXTIME]

Bastard.

Love it :woot: :bunny: :banana:

[2rismo]

Guides were pushed at Pro Built Engine Reconditioning today and head sent off to be CNC ported.

Picture one of these but flipped the other way to suit the RB, a 100mm throttle body and a collection of Plazmaclamps to suit. Any thoughts on how it should be finished? Polished, raw, black, other? Stoked to have plazmaman.com involved in another RB engine build.

Depends on the rest of the engine bay. Also, do you want to show off the engine bay?

Black seems to be the new chrome/polished.

What is the best looking factory colour combo?

I like red engine covers with raw piping, subtle and purposeful

Just curious what head, 26 or NEO, there is so much talk about the NEO head being better then the 26 lately and given it hasn't been mentioned I thought I would ask

Subscribed, looks like it will haul arse

[2rismo]

It's a 26 head, mate. To be honest it'll be hogged out that far on the CNC and the bench the casting is the limitation. I doubt one would be better than the other from this perspective.

[XKLABA]

Fair enough, I suppose that's the truth of it, doesn't matter what the head started out as once it hits the CNC machine it all changes anyway and I'm sure the 26 head still has more after market support options

[2rismo]

Yep. 26 is a known quantity with heaps of support. If the Neo was better by the same amount as say an SR20DET vs. SR20VET it might be a different story. It's not.

Picture of that turbo does not do it justice to how large it really is!

[2rismo]

Lol. It's 23kg. IPhone 5 sits easily inside the intake. It's dumb!

Yes is dumb

you should have bought a 91

[2rismo]

Hahaha. This is the first of the Gen-2 8891. It's a little tougher than the old one and about what a 91 used to be. You never know your luck in the big city though. PTE have been pretty good to me. ;-)

[zebra]

Ahh I didnt know they had a new one.

You're keeping the irs yes?

Any fancy bits going under there to help it out of the hole?

[2rismo]

Car has a GT-R diff/axles/hubs etc. Will concentrate on alignment and shocks to help it leave. 60ft goal is in the 1.2sec range.

That'll be honking.

Whats the current quickest RWD untubbed import atm?

I know there are some IRS Supra's in the 7s in the states....but iirc they are on slicks
