Gts-t

What would you suggest uras?

yeah maybe if ur just limping around town. After a few hot laps id be warming it down/driving it soft for longer than 30 seconds. Not just for the motors sake but the brakes too

Hey shaun, my motivation is that ill be putting this motor together and as it will be my first go i don't want to end up destroying an expensive piston and rod combo if i make any mistakes. It will be fun and good experience for the next motor i put together. Also from what ive read from SK the rb30 should only get 1 bar of boost max to stay reliable. 8.3cr shouldnt be too bad, i think my rb20 at the momment only has 8.0? Since i like to do things progressively and enjoy this so much as a hobby i will begin on a 3.1ltr forged bottom end after i know im happy with the characteristics of the rb30. If not i will most likely build up a 26 bottom end and see what thats like. The car is built for circuit and i know there is only so much power a rwd car can use so limiting it to 1bar, 300rwkw, 700rpm should be ok.

You make good points bb firstly i know the traction rod is not adjustable from factory, im saying it becomes adjustable with the whiteline rear camber kit. Secondly when u say the traction rod affects angle of the upright, well doesnt the angle of the upright determine the camber? Im pretty sure if i rang heasmans and asked what i should set my rear castor to they would think i was on some shit But i think i have more to learn and thats a good thing, i just might be able to find some improvement in the rear of my car too. Combine this with an accurate wheel alighnment from one of those ikea kits im gonna get and my car should be like a million times better to drive. Somehow i really doubt this tho as its just so good already

hahah gold man ^^ who has more

thanks bud, looking forward to a game with all you fellas soon. we should organise something

Hey, im in brisbane mate

Hey bb, i was talking about the factory suspension link, u know the link that your traction rod replaces. If you buy 2x whiteline rear camber kits then u can fit one to both ends of this link and it affects camber more than anything else. I know because i have played around massively with my rear camber on the aligning machine and thats how u adjust it, just adjusting the bush on the link that your shock goes thru wont give u much change to the neg rear camber. You need to shorten both links to get more negative camber in the rear(per side), again the whiteline kit does this by adding an adjustable bush to one or both ends of the factory "traction rod" Also having castor in the rear sounds odd to me, i really dont think u would want to be pulling the rear wheels towards the front of the car. I think the japs have called it a traction rod to give it some cute name, when really camber is the main thing apart from toe, that gives u traction in the rear. So really a better name would be camber rod. Wheres the old SK when u need him

Hey uras, where would a gt3040 .82rear fit into that ^^ Will be going on a 26/30 8.3 cr, high mount manifold, 44gate etc. looking for 300rwkw and running 1 bar max thanks mate

Im suprised the japs let all the R33's be exported, i thought they liked whale

What is it gtst, the stock one?

Anyone know the paint code for the r34 rb26 cam covers?

Eug, with the whiteline bushes on max, i found the difference side to side to be so tiny that you will never notice it. Also im not convinced that there is such a thing as a traction rod i think this is more a name the japs have given it. Consider the whiteline rear camber kit, it comes with bushes that go on one or both ends of this so called traction rod(the factory one). Adjusting this adjusts camber rather than pulling the wheel forward castor style. Im happy to be proven wrong though BB, I get the laser beam treatment for free, full use of the machine so it will be hard to stay away. However it would be good to never have to go back, ill have to hit up one of these kits when i stop smokin cash on bits and pieces for teh 26/30 cheers guys

id say more like the last few minutes of a drive depending on how much u were getting up it before that etc.

33's are good for one thing.... the gearbox

Eug, i noticed when i was on the laser machine, working thru alignment changes progressively going from soft settings to fairly hard that if you adjusted camber it would affect the castor a little and vice versa. Im happy to be proven wrong but i think u would get the castor where u want it, and then make the camber changes. Obviously if you are piling on heaps of camber u might need to go back and adjust the castor(if you arent already at max, assuming camber "steals" castor) Having said all that i can notice the difference when driving that alignment changes make so maybe some trial and error is the best way to go. See what you like etc Wheres someone smart when u need them

Thanks Eug, and bb you had me laughing out loud with your post. Seems i really need to try one of these kits. As far as castor goes, i have the whiteline bushes in mine and i would think u just set them to max and then forget about it. By max i mean to shorten the arm as much as possible, giving the most castor. Usually around 6 with these bushes. I could be wrong though

Seems you do

Hey eug, got some details and pics mate? I really rate the laser machines, but wouldnt mind giving something like u bought a go. cheers

Damn those pesky evo's not a bad vid mate, look forward to a new one with the rb30 soon

Hey bud, i have the hks2530 on my rb20 and its fantastic. There is no difference in lag or responce between this turbo and the stocker. i cant rate it highly enough, if one is available def grab it

+1 on the 4wd, i didnt want a gts4 so why the hell would i want a gtr :S

Hey guys, does anyone know what the hidden object in this pic is? Sorry the pic is no good i keep spending cash on mods instead of a digi cam

I think u will get there shaun, not sure what boost it will take. With the 9.0 cr hopefully less rather than more Im slowly putting together a 26/30 with prob 8.3 comp and a gt3040, hoping 1bar will see 300rwkw going into the same car as you

Ok guys $190 ONO
