Ladies and gentlman

after a long wait of 2 months 1week 6 days and a few houres my car has finally arrived in the sunny state of NSW. all the work was done by my cousins workshop DRIFT LINE RACING so the f%^$@r took his sweet time doin my car.By the way he's workshops in melbourne he does excellent work and if you got a nissan, which most of the people in this forum have pay him a visit, top quality work at very resonable prices. anyway back to my car the thing came out lookin like a sx machine. at the moment the thing has 227kw@rw with an rb20det and she flies cause it totals just under 1090kg. i know she flies cause i've owned two skylines and one had 247kw@rw and my current car shits all over it just goes to go power to weight is all that matters.

well let me know what you think. i included some before and after shots. the difference is rather dramatic i think

Cheers

anthony

Good effot something different

how much did you spend

+ mods

james

in total the car, looking the way it does now, cost me including rego,engineers and engine mods a little over $14000 and the car originally cost me $5500 including transport from QLD to Vic. so realistically the car to get it how it is now cost me bout $11500( not including engineers, rego and insurance).

My cousin does the conversion on the 180's the silvias and the s14 for the 180's it costs

2750 with change over pannels

3500 without change over pannels

The car is running a 5 stud pattern with r32 brakes all round

the car came damaged but hell for 5000 u cant go wrong

engine mods are :

The engine is your standard rb20det with a metal head gasket.

It's got a garret t3/t4 turbo

3inch zorst

air filter

microtec ltx12

apexi avcr

550cc injectors

fuel pump

stanless sleel manifold

FMIC

BOV

supra radiator with twin thermo fans

and all this is runnin of 16psi and now that it's had a good tune it's got 241.3rwkw so i'm rather happy with her.

Cheers

anthony

    • I’m doing some side developments on SR20det S13 engines, its one my hobby cars used it to compare flow capacity of some smaller size wheels. SR20det is one of another JDM legendary engines I'm sure there are plenty of SR enthusiasts on this forum, I will share results some common turbo configurations here. a quick run down of what the car is: Wide body 180sx Type X with black top engine (blue). It has: Stock bottom end Haltech 1500 ECU 5-0 motorsports trigger kit Kelford SR20DET Beehive Spring with Titanium Retainers Kelford Cams SR20DET S13 188-B 268/272 Cams G25-660 Turbocharger in T2 .64 rear housing internally gated ARP Head studs MLS head gasket 1000CC ID injectors Walbro 450L Fuel pump Front mount cooler kit JJR’s 3 inches turbo back exhaust (its too short for the 180sx it had to be extended) Pump 98 fuel Hub Dyno tune So far made 270rwkws at 22psi full boost by 4500RPM. Engine is very knock limited hence a pretty bad looking top end. From previous experiences it seems like SR20dets are happier with bigger size turbine, some thing like a GT30 would make way better top end, but on same time response is lost. It won't be a problem with S15 VCT engines. I'll be testing alternative turbine housing, turbine wheel and possibly dump pipe options for extra flow to resolve the problem and of course E85 would resolve all the issues.            
    • Awesome writeup and details. Thanks for sharing the story so far. I can relate to parts of it with my previous car and some of the issues I had to deal with.
    • Wow the colour matched hard top completely transforms the car. Are there any nice front lip options for the car or is that off the table?
    • Generally yes but for some reason I've been ruthless this time around!  I might even need to do another tip run after the way I've finally been able to hit the delete button on shit I've stepped over, stepped around and tripped over for the past 10 years!
    • I just quote the Rolling Stones. Paint it black.
