ya gtr uses 12mm
but the head is located on dowels so the head studs really just clamp it down and dont provide any horizontal strength???
thats my reading of it
pete
can someone confrim the sentance below re head bolts
"Use a set of 10mm standard RB25DE head bolts. They fit the RB30 block and are the correct length for the GTR head."
i dont want to retap the block until i rebuild it
pete
laser cut flanges 50-100 bux
but i wouldnt do that i would just remove the bolt hols form the centre cylinder oem cast manifold weld on a plate with the corect orientation holes for the centre cylinder and get it decked
50 bux total me thinks (im sure there are some welding tocast material issues but who cares cheap as piss)
and lets face it thats my middle name
nismoid i know you want me
bugger off ... my last resort is buying those filthy china one
i want to mod the factory cast buggers(even cheaper option that the china crap) to fit the high mount for position fo rthe gtr head then run some cheap nasty turbo which will make some 400 rwkw love
anyway ive heard that if you do the flip with the stock manifold you can easily high mount some twins( got to love people makeing stuff up)
obviously the middle manifold holes are the dram(wrong way around) but with alittle bit of grinding should be apples might become a leaking problem cause your centre cylinder isnt clamped down as well
anyway anyone done it before? am i just a crack pot... most likely
anyway
or do i buy some china manifold as just mod some bolt holess for the centre cylinder on them??????
cheers in advance
pete
best of both world slip a stock gtr motor into a silvia for 280rwkw
then you can have the fun and the rebuild cost
shame you ant run a silvia in improved prodution with a gtr motor
then you would have a competitive car
dam you 4 -6 cylinder conversions
