Go for a Garrett. Sooooo many options, amazing quality, lifetime warranty, well worth the extra coin. You wont be disappointed. One thing I can suggest man, is that choosing a turbo based on a target boost level is the most backwards way I've ever heard of... 15psi from a 2860 is a sh!tload less air than 15psi from a 3582... How much power do you want? Choose a turbo that's gonna place your power figure, smack in the middle of the meat of it's efficiency range, take note of what boost it should be putting out, check out the Garrett website for the catalog and compressor efficiency graphs for that. Then tailor a rear housing to suit your application (street car, drag car, circuit car weekend warrior, daily driver etc...) good luck.

He's talking about oil drain mate, not feed.' You shouldn't need to take the engine out unless there's something in the way. Just need the sump pan off then drill/tap/de-burr/clean away. seal it back up and fill him back up with oil.

you might get away with it, but personally, I wouldn't risk it. Besides, you ought not have any filings as such in The sump, but there will def be burred edges on the hole that you'd wanna clean up, plus, tapping the hole can cause more filings too. Up to you though. If you have a decent oil filter and/or a magnetic sump plug, and providing you're careful, it migh be ok.

You definitely want to take the filings out... I havn't done a RBDE+T conversion, but from my own conversion, and searching around, i think RBs have a oil port already on the block that's there from the turbo variants, should be able to just use that. But if not, you'll have to drill and tap a spot ABOVE the level of oil when full, and yeah you'll have to have it up on jack stands at least, a hoist would be better, and the engine out would be even better! It's a bit of a job, cos the sump needs to come off, and you'll need to reseal it too. Speaking from someone who has an oil leak from the same very part were talking about, I'd recommend getting a workshop to do it for ya. That's if there isn't a pre tapped spot on the block already. Another skyliner will be able to confirm this for ya. Good luck!

New motor. getting a rebuild is upwards of $4k. new RB20 could be put in for much less than that.

lol another one of these threads... Raising the compression ratio means a complete rebuild. i.e. taller pistons. would cost upwards of 4k for such a job. Why is it always R33s that noobs ask these questions about?

13-13.5 certainly isn't rich buddy! That's lean as fark. 11/10/9 is rich, the lower the number the less air there is for a given amount of fuel.

Would you accept $100 for the fuel reg posted to Perth?

hmm good idea, but the vibrations of the engine/drivetrain would make it pretty unsafe IMO. I could be wrong though...

Hope its nothing to do with those R33 wheels i sold you! lol How are ya Paul?

lol I thought it was a perfectly valid question!

This car sounds murdered anyway. Not to be racist, but look at his name and his lack of proper grammar/spelling, he's gotta be foreign. lol what mechanic do you use?! Pretty f**king useless if you ask me. If a mechanic can't tell you why your car isn't making boost, and one of them gives you the thumbs up for a RWC considering a BOV, wheel spacers, insecure pod, butchered bodywork and NO INDICATOR, then I suggest you find a better mechanic, cos those ones don't know shit. Orange flaked paint, big shit chrome wheels, big uleh fully sick subwoofer, lights on the windscreen washers, all = fail. Also, learn to converse in English you douche.

cooler is 285 x 75 x 50. 10 row with -8 fittings.

Bump. adding a few bits a pieces tomorro. plazmaman bov, and an oil drain kit.

Any updates mate?

One of them's already been mentioned. http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Rb...l=turbo+upgrade http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Hy...mp;hl=hypergear http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Fo...ick-t66556.html

Unlike you, I love my cat thankyou very much! snails and rats however, i would treat with the same sorta deal!

lol! thats strange! I sometimes find my cat sleeping on my bonnet, right where the turbo is underneath, but THIS is much more weird!

If farken sucks how the government refuses to up driver training! I can't believe how blatantly obvious it is that this sort of action will greatly save lives, but those money hungry farks just want more coin in their pockets. I honestly can't believe how dumb these people (who are running our country) are. I think the government wont do anything to do with driver training because 1) it costs too much money, and 2) the real world effects wont come into play until the next election term, by which time the current government probably wont even be in power (read: wont give a gosh darn). We used to have decent people running our country, but now we only have money hungry chair sniffers. I hate in that article how everyone takes Skaife out of context. The only thing that is mentioned is the 140km/h speed limit increase, and the point he makes about increasing driver training, road maintenance and car safety is only touched on. More great trash journalism from the Herald Sun. What Bev Brock said at the bottom of the article is f**king retarded too. So Bev, are you saying Mark Skaife has no real world driving experience, and he is only thinking from a racetrack? What a dipshit. He's on the right track (pardon the pun) you're just taking him out of context.

Lol @ people who can't win an argument with intelligence, so they resort to violence. On the Internet lol. No, I don't want to drive to Melbourne and fight you haha You speak about wasting time, they why bother writing all that? And besides, what the f**k are you ranting on about? All I saw was "winge, winge, blah blah, turbo x-trail" so I payed attention, but didn't give a fark for the rest of it. Don't take shit so seriously mang! Were all just having a laugh, and you gotta admit, your poem was a little gay...

Likewise, I feel sorry for someone who takes a GTR so seriously that he'd write a poem about one. And you don't even own a GTR lol

On a skyline? That is already cop bait? And risk a massive fine? Not sure that's very good advice mate... A decent metal highflow cat can provide almost no restriction, the good quality ones are very good these days. Plus they double as a muffler/resonator, negating the need for an extra muffler.

lol, sneaky sneaky. I saw your original reply you dickhead.

1) assholes doing burnouts in a carpark. 2) f**king terrible 'journalism'. more trash media, great. if youre reading this, f**k you whoever did this, i hope you get charged with wreckless like you should, and end up never getting a decent job ever again.

lol this guy wants some serious head! haha
