You lol, 10 million different opinions on how to do it

Comes down to how much you wanna spend, setting up a high powered GTR for track duties is an expensive exercise if you want to do it with some sort of reliability.

If I were you,

Keep 2.6, Sort out the exhaust, standard Intercooler, standard cams, fuel pump with wiring upgrade, ID 1000/2000 injectors AND put -9s in it with cams gears dialed for response

That's for street duties and will net you 350ish rwkw.. Sh1t starts to break and get expensive from here on in

For track your gonna want a sump baffle, decent oil pump (oil restrictor depending on pump flow), oil cooler, catch can... If your going that far shit put a stroker in it with a new valve train.. See how it doesn't end?

Haven't even started on brakes and suspension when it comes to track.

BTW -10s are a no no on a 2.6

yeah -5 specs are really one of the best turbos out there imo. the mismatched dimensions of the 2871 only suit drag, peak power at any cost applications.

Hi guys got a quote back for the exhaust, twin 3 inch into 3.5 into 4 inch in stainless steel supply and installed with black finish $2000, $3000 for the bronze finish, does that sound right?

Why does it step from 3.5 to 4? Why not go 4 inch from the merge?

What's a bronze finish?

fark..... get another quote from somewhere else... unless you want to show the under your car you can get mild steel with a stainless rear muffler for the $1200 mark. shop around mate

shit no, 3.5 is obviously all hes got in stock. tell them 4" merge and you'll do it for 1300 can only ask

    • If the RB29 box in the car is a push clutch, then yes, you will need to deal with the pull clutch on the turbo box. You either buy a pull clutch and don't use the old one, or you do the things needed to convert the turbo box's clutch arrangement over to push. Which is a bit of a f**karound. "Making" a custom tailshaft is the easy part. But you will need to source the front clip yoke - the bit that goes into the output of the gearbox. These are not as easy to find. They are out there, but they don't grow on trees the way that they used to.
    • Indicator bulbs are way too bright to use as a "corner marker" (we call them parking lights too). Sure. Go ahead and do it. But realise that you wil need to come up with all your own wiring to do it, as no-one will have a standard howto worked out for Skylines. It's just a matter of abandoning everything that Nissan have done and starting from scratch. You'd probably be better off retrofitting tailght/brakelight globe bases into the front indicator housings and using the taillight circuit for your corner marker and the brake light as the indicator. You'd need to work out how to kill the marker circuit while the indicator is flashing, otherwise it won't flash on-off, just bright-less bright.
    • Hi. A little bit of an update. It maybe(hope not) looks like i would need a new tranny(it would be "maybe" a cheaper or better option anyway) So i need some info. I know i need a different propshaft(i can make custom one) LSD is not a problem cuz the engine will be still(for now) N/A RB20. So if i buy RB25DET NEO tranny...is there something else i need? I read something about push/pull type but i do not know if i need to "change" something or i can just plug n play onto my engine a go? Thanks for the advice  
    • Good morning all, Bit of a random question but figured I’d finally throw it out after wondering for a long while. Before I start, I'm hoping to do this purely out of personal preference. I think it would look better at night, and don't mind at all spending a few hours and dollars to get it done. I've copied this from a non-Skyline specific forum, so I apologize for the explanation of our headlight switch setup that we all know. Here we go: Zero lights (switch off) Parking lights (switch position 1) being a rectangular marker on the outside of the housing, my low beam being the projector in the centre (position 2), and a high beam triggered by my turn signal stalk. Most North American cars I’ve owned of this era have power to the amber corner (turning indicator) light as part of the first switch (parking lights). I’d love to have these amber corners receive power when the headlights and parking lights are on (headlight switch), yet still blink when using the turn signal which is of course a separate switch. Hopefully I’ve explained my question correctly. Is anyone aware of a way in which I might be able to achieve this? Thanks in advance
    • My heads are cathedral port! It's likely possible, but I don't want to add any extra moving parts (I know they don't move) between the heads, manifolds, etc. It will also affect how injectors/fuel rails etc sit and I don't really know if it would change how the FAST manifold goes/sits/fits. I have the LS6 steam pipes already as I have a very late LS1 block so it should be fine. I couldn't find anyone who had ever actually used one for this purpose, it seems 100% of people grind the water pump. The thermal spacers are 12mm and are half way to the cost of the newer water pump anyhow... so if it comes to that I suppose I'd rather buy a new pump. The bearing in the pump I do have is a little.. clunky, but it hasn't done that much time and I never noticed it when the car was together in the past few years, so..
