Hello thanks for letting me in to the group

Im Matt.  Been building car for a while.

Most recently I have been doing the Rally thing with a 1984 Nissan Bluebird. Full CA18DET (160KW at the wheels) anda full Group A body kit. (Photo Attached) The car now lives in SA.

Im now setting out on the most ambitious build Ive ever dreamt up.  A Nissan Bluebird withe a RB26DETT and 4wd. 

I will start a build thread - I know of a couple of RWD RB powered Bluebirds but I don't think anyone has gone full GTR on the light weight chassis.

My goal is Track days, hill climb and WTAC if they will have me.

 

Thanks for reading.

Matt

Thanks, I think it will be epic. 1000KG and 1000HP????  (well maybe not straight away but we can dream)

Heaps of pics of the old car, and there will be a build thread of the new car.  I think of this build like the bad uncle or the black sheep of the NISSAN family.  Sort of great Uncle-Zilla or Gramp-zilla

You can also check out the Bluebird Mafia group on Facebook for more.

Cheers

Matt

      EDIT: Just a little info what my tranny is "doing" :   For the long time the trans do this "bad" sound:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qs_iTXgDt40 It is literally the same sound and same symptoms(when i push the clutch it quites down) So is it really the shaft bearing?   Also:  i found this on forums: The RB20 and SR20 boxes are nearly indentical inside (rb20 has longer mainshaft)and suffer badly from bearing and selector failures when driven hard   The bearing is true and selector failure kinda too...it is "harder" to get into gears specialy when i drive a little bit hard...

      Pillar gauges

      See, that button sounds like perfection Duncan! My eyes really don't like light shining at them from a dash when I'm driving. Being part red colourblind, I've found for most cars that I can change colours on, I set everything to red, so my eyes see the elast amount of colour! I miss normal gauges in cars

      bro, knowing the Japanese in  the 90's, i wouldn't be surprised if they shared components across their model lineup.

      Maaaan so many "little" things  i rly hope my old RB20 would be "ok" and not too bad. I try to learn what and what not do i need. I look at crossmember at it looks different...even parts numbers are different. Wiring and all that i rly do not know...yeah someone mentioned the speedo thing. On that yoke clip. I rly do not know what can and cant be done "custom" so that is why iam asking to know and not be suprised 🙂  I know what it looks like
