Ok so what time are people going to roll on down?? Anyone keen for a couple of pre drinks @ Great Northern? Anyone??? Anyone??? Bueller??? Bueller???

I live a jump skip and roll away so let me know if anyone is getting there early....

Well shale we say we all meet @ 7pm SHARP out front to try and snag a sizable table together????

Mate i did buy the Splitfires for the RB20/ series 1 RB25, but was able to swap them accordingly for a Series 2 RB25. So if that is the case the coilpacks coming off the RB25 won't work But I can always ask what condition the coilpacks are like coming off the RB20...... Ando

^^^^^^Lane Cove River Steak House ^^^^^^

So your providing the case!!!! Thanks Richie!!! mohahahahahahaha

Oh Rly *insert stupid picture of owl here* :sorcerer:

Stan there is heaps of parking around Artarmon station (on street) but u should be able to snag one out front hopefully as there is a few spots within a stone throw from the restaurant! I will be most certainly walking there...from the Great Northern I will asses the need for a case upon arrival! See u all tonight gentlemen!

Well if we get 10 or more peeps....I will be supplying a case of beer.... Doesnt look like it will happen thou!

Looking into The KKR480 on the RB25..... hoping for 250rwkw... Got the engine, just need the bigger turbo....keeping a keen eye on this thread to see how the KKR holds up with the thrashing u give it

http://www.allautos.com.au/engines.aspx AllState - Phone 07 3265 5966 There is a SR20 there.... $2200 ask for Maurice and mention Iain who bought the RB25DET refered you. He is a absolute champ to deal with!! And yes that emotioncon is pretty funny

Konect - Your wish is my command Well the engine came across from Japan from an owner with very little driving done, all history of car and the engine sticker / tag showing details. (will see if I can get a copy posted up) Hey they could be full of BS but will find out shortly as I will look over it this w/end...from the photos I have seen it is in VERY good condition. Anyways here u go...piccy of engine sticker / tag is crapola (phone camera job) but if u look on 4th column down on Right u will see it states 24,200km's.. KM_Tag.bmp RB25DET.bmp

Replicate - Mate I am obviously keeping my RB20 & also not using the coiplacks that are coming with the RB25 (using the Splitfores). Apparently the coilplacks on the RB20 may be on the way out (according to mechanic), but do the RB25 coilpacks work with the RB20?? I think they don't, but if they do let me know as I will be selling them. Coming of the engine that has a Legit 24,000km's, so the coiplacks are fairly fresh! Yeah a NSW meetup would be sweet, just will have to be in a couple of months, as the work may take awhile! Ando

nice work simon...great shots! Second one makes the car look black... So the KKR knows how to chew up the tyres well by the looks of things

Hey dude also in the process of building up a A31 Cefiro for Drift use with RB25DET powah, so i know how things go with this whole DIY stuff!! But more so interested in the sanding / prepping and painting side of things! Are u doing it urself? Is it true u can just 'Sandblast' the f&*ker back to metal and just primer it....save a lot of time & effort with the sanding part!!?? Any chance of a write up afterwards on how to do it!? Tools, method, primer used, how many coats, filler etc....ahahahah 20 questions but u know u wanna!!

Yeah i know the JZ would get great WTF factor but aint worth it....RB30/25...great but meh too hard basket.... BUT i have finally sourced myself a VERY LOW km's Series 2 RB25DET engine / gearbox package...just when i thought i was gonna throw the towel in...the car gods shined apon thy and showed me the way! Series 2 RB25 + R33 GTS-T gearbox minus the pressure & clutch plate which i don't care about as I am getting a ceramic in neways. So car should be dropped @ the mechanics this w/end to have the beast revitalised with all her goodies! List of things to go in - 1. RB25DET 2. R33 GTST Gearbox 3. FMIC 4. Splitfire Coilpacks 5. 3" Exhaust Turbo back 6. Ceramic Clutch 7. 2 x Recaro's 8. Oil Cooler Kit Once that is done, I have some money left over for PFC, fuel pump, injectors & hunting around for bigger Turbo. So all things going well *crosses all fingers & toes* i should have it all up and running within a couple of months....... So with the correct turbo choice....2530..GTRS...KKR480... i should have my goal of 250+rwkw.... Will keep you updated on the process! Catch yas! PS if anyone has a Z32 AFM lying around....PM me!!!!! Here is a piccy of what she looks like now....gimme a few weeks and I will repost a piccy with her in all her glory....

Oh so your offering to fund this project........ Thanks Dave!!!! Nah the 1jz would be unique for OZ but the more i look into it the more it seems like the bank will take a hard hit....... Maybe back to the RB25 drawing board.................... Excuse me while i scream .........AAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRR GGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHH FFS imports....HATE TO LOVE EM................. Ando

Konect - Amen to that....been on the sites and my thailandese and Malay aint what it used to be Does anyone know of someone on here that has done this conversion?? I swear i read somewhere.....or not..... Ando

Aw Tosh....did the notion of a 'Bedroom Buffet' cause a little 'stage fright'?? lol Im still in mofo's All in agreeance for Richie (Beerbaron) to book, say I.............. I

Replicate - Hey dude!! Mate was Drift Battle that inspired the thought! Might give my mechanic a call and see what he says... Just over this whole engine BS.....someone wanna build / source me a RB25/30??!!!

Heya dudes, Well with the last few weeks spent hopelessly trying to source a decent RB25, I am starting to crack the sh*ts They are few and far between and the good ones are just too much for my 'dorifto budget' Anyways have been looking around and i know those crazy Malaysians, Thailandians love their JZ conversions, so i thought....WHY NOT.... You can source some decent front cuts for about $3K which is heaps cheaper than the RB25's..... So what is peoples thoughts..... what are bolt ons like with the JZ's???? I am very noobish when it comes to Toyota engines so just after some advice / thoughts from people who know of or may have done this conversion..... Ando

Any piccies or link to pics mate..... reason for selling? Condition? Cheers

I just fitted some S13 coilovers a couple of w/ends ago....piece of piss! So yeah S13's are fine

Mate ur a legend!!! Thanks a million, appreciate the write up! Will be starting the first sand back hopefully this weekend.... 1 quick question.... i assume u did the sanding by hand? Sand paper wrapped around something? Or just a good ole piece of sandpaper and i sh*t load of elbow grease? Cheers again dude! Ando

and so the connotations continue..... ahahahaha & it isn't even Friday
