Nice work, how about posting up a list of the parts used? No AFM, what ECU are you using?

:aroused:

the extra height of the spacer is actually quite noticeable. should be a nice package.

[Kor'axis]

WOW. that looks really sweet!

how did you go with the clutch booster, i noticed you did it different to how i told you i did mine??? Looks good bud cant wait to see the mph this pulls, also I am interested to talk to you about suspension set ups for serious r32 drag cars!!

[BiZzReVhEad]

look out ! is all i can say

[Hiroshima Screamer]

beautiful work , would of cost a bomb

Also curious?

Looks great!

Not trying to sound rude. But whats the difference between this and say using an RB30 block? As Im also guessing this would cost a tad more. Not knocking what you have done as its obviously a serious peice of machinery. Just interested in what the differences are.

The big advantage is you use an RB26 block, so it's already 4wd enabled. It also has block mounted oil squirters, you have to do a lot of work to mount them in an RB30 block. You get to keep your original RB26 engine number. The OS Giken crank is forged and fully counterweighted, the standard RB30 crank is not. So you are looking at 10,000+ rpm, if you have the necessary support parts.

Ahhh I see! That makes good sence to me! 10000rpm out of a 3L

I've seen Cubes and I think a few other of the pro rb30 guys point out figures like to get the same power out of an rb25 you need say 9500rpm compaired to about 7000rpm in the rb30. So what happens when you get an RB30 of sorts to rev to 10ishk???

Around 1400 bhp, if you have the support systems for it.

wowzers, thats a lot of powa, happy hunting dicky, hopefully we see you in the 9's.

more pics please

Good thing about building a motor like that, is you must be able to afford a few sets of new undies for when it comes on boost the first few time!!

Great stuff! Awesome

[GTR-Ben]

Motec M8 ECU. I'm sure Dicky is still writing up the novel to reply to the mods this has...

If it doesn't make the power he wants, there is always the Nos foggers there to help her on the way..

Meanest GTR I have ever heard. And I havn't heard it on boost yet.

Street car too. lol

More pics here for those interested. http://skeleton.net.nz/~ben/Other%20Parts/Engine/

I think it was still done like you said. A spacer and a Master Cylinder from a R33 Skyline. I think you said to use a Silvia one?
