Ok new plan. If it does turn out that a high mount single can be made legal, what will support 600AWHP without lag that can be marked on a calendar?

engineering documentation will run you about $1,500 if it is built correctly first time around

Josh has engineered several big single cars so know what needs to be done from the get go to get it over the line. as oppose to building it, and then needing to spend more cash getting it compliant for engineering

one car is a holinger equipped 934whp R32 GTR with a 72 series precision (cant remember exact precision)

Isnt it funny, you speak to 10 peope and you will get 10 different answers to a question.

Spoke to Josh from Galvsport. Came across as a very knowledgable guy. I will be seeing him in about 2 weeks to finalise the plan of attack. He is sudgesting that for my purposes, a stroker kit is a waste of money. I will see more benefit from using better bottom end components and opening up the heads breathing capacity. Made sence when he said it. He also advised me to stya with the low mount twins. Once again, the sheer cost of the conversion and the engineering costgs to make it legal, simply outweigh any benefits. I should b e able to reach my goals from a smart low mount setup and proper engine setup to match. After giving me the idead of the cost difeerence between staying with a 2.6 and going to a stroker kit, I am thingking that I might be better of using the extra change to strengthen gtrs driveline compenents like diffs, clutch sng gearbox.

Will lay out a new plan once I have had a proper chat to him. Thank you every one for your sudgestions. Ihave learnt a huge amount from you guys. If you have any further advice, I am all ears.

Exactly as Pete said.

Machining

Labour to put in and out

Head freshen up

Cams

Bearings

Clutch

Injectors

And the list goes on.

$2-3 k is a drop in the ocean when you're talking about what you're about to do. That dofference falls IF you need a new crank or have to "prepare" your current one.

Might not be anything wrong with a well setup 2.6 but the 2.8 is always going to be better

So go a 30 then. Why skimp out on 200cc on next to nothing,

Rather sell the 26 less what u need, get a 30 get it built and $ to play with. You can get a fully forged and assembled 30 bottom end for 4k which is less than the parts of stroker kit.

Any each to their own I suppose. Choices, choices and more choices. We are pretty blessed to have so many options.

    • Shit thing to find eh? I guess the big issue is that whatever "fix" you do now, it might slow the rust down but won't fix it. I just wanted to add that in no way is fixing sheet metal in 3 dimensions the place to start with welding....that is a pro only job because its too hard to work out where things should be, let alone doing a clean enough job that it can look OK and still be strong too.  I needed to get a new rear quarter panel on the GTR and it took a pro weeks to get the old one off cleanly, new one on in the right place and looking somewhat like it should have with most of the previous connecting panels in place. Gluing a couple of bits of metal together with a welder in the garage is doable, but that is totally different to doing panel  replacement
    • This seems to be a very popular swap since all the turbo skyline prices went through the roof! I'll let someone more familiar chime in, but I understand that yes you probably want to swap the loom in to swap out the auto TCM stuff. You should not assume everything just plugs in either, you need to check at least the ECU wiring diagram for any differences at the plug at the left headlight and probably the ones near the ECU that join the dash loom too  
    • hows it fellas, my first post here which seems crazy cos half the forums i read are like the same age as me haha. to make a long story short ive got an r34 sedan (rb25de neo auto) which im swapping to a s0/s1? rb25det, r33 big box and nismo gt pro lsd. i have the motor and gearbox all bolted up outside the car, old motor and trans out. i bought the motor with stock ecu and loom, do i switch over to that? or will it be easier to get a r34 manual ecu and keep the loom if thats even possible.  also engine mounts look different, anything else thats different or incompatible? cheers, hope this all makes sense Paddy

    • Plan on the day will be to park trackside. Depending on space availability we will try put a small shade tent and a few of the cars on top of the hill inside turn 3, this is an easy to get to parking area with views of Turn 2, Turn 3, Turn 4 and Turn 5 and limited other pieces of the view around the track. IMPORTANT NOTE! One consideration from previous years is from memory the trackside parking sells out before the admission tickets, for that reason I encourage anyone planning on coming to buy tickets for parking now via the official website; https://www.worldtimeattack.com/ The type of parking you are looking for is 2 Day Park & View (Access Around Venue) Vehicle Pass Only Please note this does not include admission to the event itself, remember to grab that also, and kids under 12 get in for free!
