hi there

i have to tell you, my mods are very similar.

n1 engine(as the engine was blown when bought the car)

autronic & autronic cdi

4" gonzo exhaust ( not to loud)

ppg 5 speed dog box ( this only went in a few weeks ago, as original box finally

let go, 11.1 done on standard box)

hks cams

bosch pump & larger injectors (think 770cc??)

fuel rail & reg

23 psi

tomei baffles

tomei metal gaskets

koyo radiator and thermos (week ago)

6 piston ap's 365mm rotors(2 weeks ago)

18" r34 wheels

hicas lock

recaro drivers seat & rails

interesting to note i actually went quicker when we dropped the power down,

back around 320rwkw as 60 foot was quicker than we had been achieving,

it was just easier to get off the line without wheel spin. the car has run through at 130 mph( but slower 60ft).

i think the new gearbox would get a 11 flat or very high ten, it is lightening

fast on gear changes now.

my car is being setup for circuit and sprints also, thats what makes them so good

great on the strip or circuit, or street.

hope to see you round some time.

cheers russ

yeah russ, thanks for that info i appreciate it.

im hoping for mine to be set up for ciruit and sprints also, with a few drags thrown in for fun! :P

cant wait for mine to land here.

Show me a better value for performance, handling, 4WD, track, curcuit, drag, street car out there and I'II buy it......

EVO's, and WRX's. Just cause they are 4WD doesnt make them all that... Reliability plays a big part in it. The most comonly destroyed RB engine is the 26 due to poor design from the factory.

Im not biased, i do own one, and from an owners point, i still say they are over rated, from driving instructers, and from mechanics they will all tell you the same thing.

Must admit I do have a thing for EVO's & WRX's. They are the only other cars that I like.

I guess the GTR, I believe has more potential when all factory problems are addressed.

I do agree that the RB 26 has some design faults that should have been adressed from factory.

    • I have a 6 boost manifold and it has loads of bends etc. turbo has a cover however manifold doesn’t so I started to wrap what I could without taking turbo off. Very restricted area   are you stating wrapping could lead to cracking weld? Is that because heat is retained?    i have a exhaust gas temp right after turbo and it hits 700degree or 800 at times.   there are areas which is impossible to reach with fibre glass cloth. Is there anything I could apply such as the photo shared earlier which would formulate around exhaust pipe in difficult to reach areas, sort of like aluminium foil flexible to shape it in place?   i think from earlier reply you mentioned acl? Is this what you meant?   https://www.nstparts.com/product/acl-heat-shield-700x275     photo of my engine bay   https://ibb.co/9grHsMN https://ibb.co/bXC8KRM https://ibb.co/KV3kGZc   I am trying to cover bottom of the exhaust manifold which joins the turbo. Only way is to take turbo and possible manifold out as it also touches the engine mount which I don’t fancy doing
    • So....I managed to fix the belt coming off problem, but unfortunately i destroyed my oil pump. While testing and hitting my rev limiter a bunch, my oil pump took a shit. I actually heard it break. In my great wisdom i decided to hit redline 5 times (original plan). Lowered it to 7500 for the soft limiter. Normally it would come off on the first go. The 6th time I hit the limiter the pump broke and as i began accelerating again and hit it the 7th time, oil pressure dropped and the protection kicked in. It actually made a "tink" as if i dropped something hollow.   The motor is pulled and should be rebuilt and put back in 3 weeks. No bearings were spun and i could have gotten away with simply replacing the pump, but since i had to pull the motor....might as well build it   I made a billet tensioner and the belt stayed on without getting frayed. I also made one for a friends R33, but I was thinking of using a hydraulic unit to keep constant pressure on it when the belt stretches.
    • Yeah 98 for me, and 6.7/100 was my actual usage. On the downside the bloody thing still isn't running properly but at least they hybrid system is happy now. It starts but missfires like a bastard, and isn't throwing any code except "missfire". Thanks scoop. I did notice the AFMs are reading quite different at idle 1.33v and 1.67v so 25% variance (and have both changed and swapped them, the issue stays on the driver's side afm) so I'm looking for exhaust restriction (mouse nest?), compression issue or (hopefully not, no physical damage seen) wiring issue. Throttle might also be an issue but that is harder because you can't swap them side to side and not cheap to fire the parts cannon at.
    • I hope you're right and it somehow justifies it's existence!
