want_33

so ive decided that im going to build onto the 20 for now. looking for a spare head to build up. Going to give it a full birthday, swap my cam gears over to it. some 272 cams and anything else i can find off the shelf to fit it. otherwise everything else will be brande new from nissan aswell as a custom inlet plenum. Going to run bellmouths and possibly an aftermarket TB. So what headgaskets are people finding reliable on 20's these days? and who is running aftermarket head studs? should i warrant them? And trent, who would you recomend in the sydney / newcastle area to tune a 20? your just a bit far out of reach for me to travel to cheers everyone

its seriously like this forum doesnt exist anymore....

I have a silvia/rb20 combo with an r33 gtst gearbox. running an os gieken twin plate clutch that is starting to give up on me, still drives fine but cant put any power down. So what are my options? Rebuild? Replace? Im making 260kw but the clutch has honestly had about 3-5 years of use, not sure how the previous owner drove the car but im a bastard. no really so its needs to be a tough clutch and the car is going to see several rounds of competition next year aswell as remain street driven. did i mention im an asshole? im really not fussed about harsh the engagment is for regular duties as in my opinion it far outweighs the price of replacing worn out part constantly. cheers, also who would you recomend. i live in nsw but i only hear good things about NPC in qld and also ACS (adelaide clutch services) in i guess adelaide? lol, or maybe jim berry? any idea on pricing for rebuild?

why are you selling? does long motor come with standard wiring harness? Compression tested?

not sure if that will work, "filmed on private property" Someones silvia and an 86. Champ did you even read the info? purchased as is, sorry mate, yts - im gonna go look for your 32 now lol ausdutchey, harden up lol. thanks for the kind comments tho everyone

thanks champion, failing that do you have any parts from a 20 head?

seperate head?

not into stroking, and i wil never run a 30 bottom end. personal pref the end. all good and well people suggesting i dont see were trent is coming from, and i honestly respect his decision as i know he is guru in the industry. BUT, i dont want a 25, i dont think you all understand why im saying that and why i want to choose between a 20 or a 26. 25's are expected to make good power, its just not a new thing, its been done over and over and im just not interested. Thinking back to the days of the IMKAOS r32 that made big big numbers from a rb20 inspire me to follow the same path, i know he eventually went a 30/25 but thats not the point. when he made numbers in the 20 people's ears picked up. and he was noticed. now for the 26, its just f**king tuff, plain and simple. "you have a gtr motor in there? get farked!" seriously everytime a 25 is mentioned in here the thread is going off topic, so please keep to my two listed options? lean on the 20 with some fresh mods, or what would be reiquired etc for the 26 conversion. thankyou

That is an option, but honestly I'd rather go an aftermarket plenum, some cams and a fresh head and really lean on the 20... Or go straight to a 26 This really is my dream car, and when I was 18 I was going to swap out the sr for a 26 but never got around to it. If it proves to be a too expensive option or the forseable future I will build on the 20 as mentioned. It's kind of expected that a 25 should make decent power, so I just don't see it as an exciting stand out thing. A 20 making big numbers is a big deal in my opinion, and the 26 I just the pinnacle of a tough car for me. And this isn't going to be hard parked, lots of drift rounds next year and everything is allready organized to make sure Sydney powerbroker is going to be a big weekend!

thanks trent, wasnt aware the coils and gears would suit a 26. do you think my engine as a package would be worth selling as is? ie: turbo, injectors, coils, power fc etc? more replys welcome thanks everyone

So this is my silvia, its in build ups section aswell. Have thought alot about building a head for it, a new inlet manifold and winding some more boost into it to see what can be achieved. But with the level of supporting mods i allready have iv been tempted to convert. considering the same amount of work would be required between a 25 and a 26 conversion, in my opinion the cost being the only differance i would like to see what others opinions are, and also the best way to go around this conversion as well as what to keep and what to swap. see below for a pic or two and the mods list, cheers guys Also i have allready spoken to mark at godzilla motorsport and have a few ideas allready 1992 S13 Silvia, Orange with RB20DET conversion Orange with a very faint Gold Pearl RB20DET engine conversion TRUST TD06H-25G Turbo kit/stainless manifold 46mm External gate with screamer Trust Adjustable Cam Gears w/ Trust Timing Belt RB25DET gearbox OS GIKEN Twin Plate Clutch KAAZ 2WAY LSD (very Fresh, even have receipts) Z32 AFM SARD Fuel Pressure Regulator SARD 720cc injectors CUSTOM Stainless Intercooler Piping HKS Pod Filter BOSCH 044 External Pump External Surge Tank ASE Polished header tank TRUST 600x300x115 Front mount APEXI Power FC + Hand Controller GREDDY e-01 boost controller with LCD screen KAKIMOTO cat back exhaust with Titanium look tip 5 Stud Hubs R32 Skyline GTST 4 pots up front 2 pots up back BREMBO front discs PROJECT Mu Street Pads front TEIN HE Drift Spec Coilovers BRIDE ZIEG III low max seats Matching BRIDE interior trim on doors, glove box, mats & gear boot NARDI swede steering wheel SAFETY 21 HALF CAGE CUSCO strut braces front and back CUSCO Sway bars front and back HICAS Lock Bar HID Head Lights Apexi RSM DEFI White Face Boost Gauge, Oil Temp, Oil Pressure, Water Temp PIVOT Security Start Button TRUST Gear Knob Boot Mounted battery Factory nismo AERO front bar Volk/Rays Engineering TE37 Rims 18x8.5 +30 front 18x9.5 +40 rear With 15mm bolt on spacers all round GTR Style grill NO A/c condenser and lines removed makes just shy of 260kw on 18PSI. excuse the partially unasembled engine bay photo all the photos are in the build thread http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Ag...amp;mode=linear

Keen to watch the engine build up, working off a budget? Ejidos you choose the 30 bottom end instead of a full 26? And what did the head including reco set you back? Cheers man, good luck it looks great so far

if im welcome id love to get the new silvia down there to help you guys out, its Rb aswell so it should fit in

It's a 10cm housing, and at 18psi or 1.2 bar of boost. And it was done on the 18's both runs. The diff was possibly a standard r200 LSD from sr20 Silvia at the time but it ha the kaaz 2way with 32gtr diff gears I'm pretty sure? I might have that wrong I'll see if I can find out for sure. As for the ignition I'll have to jump into the hand controller and see if I can find out for you champ. I have adjustable cam gears aswell

its has an alternator and powersteering pump but no ac condensor?

still nsw but a few hours north now New fittings Royal Purple I think its down there, realy? yeah.. FARK! And those dyno sheets you wanted to see roy

So what a nightmare yesterday, decided we needed a oil change and a fresh set of plugs, got the oil change happening no problem, start pulling the coil packs out and boom drop the bloody washer straight down timing belt housing. FARK! so spent the next few hours trying to fish it out with a extendable magnet to no avail, so ended up ripping the radiator out, pulled the harmonic balancer off then the timing belt cover and there it was sitting right at the very bottom, wat as ass fark. so what should have been a 45 minute freshen up turned into a 7 hour headache, but its all fine now and running great. Also changed out a leaking speedflow oil fitting from the turbo, all sweet now, Waiting for my rocker cover gaskets to turn up, swap thos out and degrease everything and hopefully thats al the oil leaks fixed *fingers crossed* Will post some pics up for the LOL's EDIT* who's farking idea was it to put a 2mb file limit farking? nothing will upload and there only iphone pictures you richard craniums! /end rant

i certainly dont mind you posting some pics, i must have almost a hundred of it myself. Just cant wait to get my own pictures of it tho ! heading out to give it a scrub soon tho

Thanks n1gtr, I have a ton of photos but there all te previous owners pics. just waiting to give it a wash and I will get some of my own. Probly today if I find time. I'll also upload the two dyno sheets for you Roy not a problem at all champ. Cheers again

So i have been through quite a few cars in my 5 years of being a licenced driver, 16 of them in fact. And this will be my 4th S chassis car, my first being a bright orange S13 silvia, then there was the white 180sx, then the blue onvia and finially back into a S13 - the current one. In between ive had some other modified cars including "shudders" a 355 come racing stroker VP SS Commodore, an MZ20 soarer with 1jz conversion and a cressida with 1JZ Conversion. But the one thing that was always missing was that love i had for my first silvia, that bright orange silvia which i cherished in my heart and wanted back. (alas it is now blue and in two pieces in qld so F that) Just a few short weeks after buying that car i went on a Nissansilvia.com cruise which would have been in 2006 (thought i was pretty hot shit back then) fresh orange paint, big shiny 18's, cat back and t28. WOW were my eyes opened when another forum members Orange s13 appeared (lewytheflys13) So from then on out i always planned to build something as street and hardcore as that silvia. unfortunatly being a young lad i quickly forgot about that car and chopped and changed a few times, every time i got myself into another S chassis those memories came flooding back but was never in a position to turn the bland and regular into something special. Untill about a month ago when i noticed that certain orange RB silvia for sale and i decided then and there that i was having that car. So as of now i am the new owner of Chris's (lewytheflys13 from NS.com) Orange S13 silvia. I guess the mod list would be pretty similar to when the car was last shown in this section of the forum, and i plan to keep it very similar thus with a few additions and tidying a few things up that have either worn out or seen good use in the time the previous owner has had this car. I am in no way looking to change the look or overall appeal of this car, i dont believ in sacrilidge lol. So the current mod list looks like this 1992 S13 Silvia, Orange with RB20DET conversion Orange with a very faint Gold Pearl RB20DET engine conversion TRUST TD06H-25G Turbo kit/stainless manifold 46mm External gate with screamer Trust Adjustable Cam Gears w/ Trust Timing Belt RB25DET gearbox OS GIKEN Twin Plate Clutch KAAZ 2WAY LSD (very Fresh, even have receipts) Z32 AFM SARD Fuel Pressure Regulator SARD 720cc injectors CUSTOM Stainless Intercooler Piping HKS Pod Filter BOSCH 044 External Pump External Surge Tank ASE Polished header tank TRUST 600x300x115 Front mount APEXI Power FC + Hand Controller GREDDY e-01 boost controller with LCD screen KAKIMOTO cat back exhaust with Titanium look tip 5 Stud Hubs R32 Skyline GTST 4 pots up front 2 pots up back BREMBO front discs PROJECT Mu Street Pads front TEIN HE Drift Spec Coilovers BRIDE ZIEG III low max seats Matching BRIDE interior trim on doors, glove box, mats & gear boot NARDI swede steering wheel SAFETY 21 HALF CAGE CUSCO strut braces front and back CUSCO Sway bars front and back HICAS Lock Bar HID Head Lights Apexi RSM DEFI White Face Boost Gauge, Oil Temp, Oil Pressure, Water Temp PIVOT Security Start Button TRUST Gear Knob Boot Mounted battery Factory nismo AERO front bar Volk/Rays Engineering TE37 Rims 18x8.5 +30 front 18x9.5 +40 rear With 15mm bolt on spacers all round GTR Style grill NO A/c condenser and lines removed So overall the car is very hardcore to drive around on the street, makes just shy of 260kw on 18PSI. The very few things on the list of upgrades are New oil lines for turbo, one of the speedflow fittings is leaking so ive ordered replacements New rocker cover gaskets (small leak) Custom stainless pod filter cover Repaint the rocker covers in similar blue to current Need to order some Defi sensors (boost, oil and water temp, and oil pressure) Thinking of selling the greddy E01 and replacing it with a regular greddy profec B spec 2 Some new suspension components including coilovers, looking at JIC and Silk Road to replace current Teins A full service of course, Royal Purple is my choice there and that i about it for now, maybe a freshen up tune in the next few months and then next year maybe a new inlet plenum. Il provide two old pictures of the car but these are not my photos, awaiting the car to be detailed then ill get some new photos up and just a quick photo of my original orange silvia
