Well either way he puts these engines together at his house, he still relies on his friends in the industry as he doesnt have the machines to do the jobs a workshop can, so they take time but also gets the work done at a very good price and still very proffesional

still waiting on engine builder, he has been so busy with other stuff its annoying, spoke to him yesterday and he said all the machining was done and the head is complete, he basically has to put it all together and take it all apart again then put it all together again. he builds these engines in his spare time, he basically told me he used to do it for a living but there's no money in it so he does it on the side, and he also looks after drag cars so if they break or need attention that goes to the top of his list THAT is why this is taking so long >< I have everything i need except for this motor so as soon as it arrives...

yeh the SL look really good pretty pleased with them, as for the drag car last time i seen it was at motorvation, its a 3.0 aswell but havnt seen it for a while now and i dont know the latest time

Yeh im loving the red mate

he build this

A bloke by the name of Andrew Smith, i think he used to do it for a living, but now he does it in his spare time, hence the long wait

Hi Guys I know its been like a year since ive posted anything... just wanted to let you know that things are still going ahead but just shitloads slower than i thought it would, ive been busy working and the engine builder has also had other commitments and hasnt quite finished it yet, he assures me it will be done within the next few months and i dont really want anyone else building this motor so all i can do is wait. I Spoke to him a week ago and he said the block and head is at the machine shop. Ive boaght a set of TE37 SL among other things a week ago so i thought i would post that up

I meant to say all i have is the jap version... Yeh thanks NUR ill check it out, let you know if i get a hold of it, im sure theres an english one floating around.

Hey there Anybody know where i can get a hold of the english version of the MFD software for the Nismo MFD?? All i have is the english version that came with the MFD... cant make any sense of it thanks

looking to have about 600hp at the wheels hopefully, dont know how much power loss ill have to the ground with an all wheel drive, anyone care to shed some light? the t04z is rated to about 700+hp, but i dont want it to be too laggy, im after a balance of power and response maybe leaning a bit towards the power side, if it doesnt work out ill change to setup

boaght the turbo setup a while ago, i think the manifold and turbo are both devided

hers some pics of the turbo setup is this what you meant simon with the divided exhaust manifold?

apart from the engine this is pretty much exactly what i want my gtr to look like, absolutely very very very clean well built gtr mate, doesnt get any better

very nice gtr mate i like how youve kept it stock looking

heres the interior as it is now ill admit the works bell quick release is very high quality

heres some other pics of the car

bore is 86.5mm and the stroke is 91mm pretty sure

wow thanks for the quick reply guys i was told originally nitto was making a 3.4l aswell but it was scrapped and they are now only offering the 3.2l so i went with that as for the bore and stroke of the kit im not sure to be honest but ill find out for you the cams where recomended buy my friends, if they arnt suitable then they can always be changed i dont mind, like i said its my first build, but with people like you guys throwing me hints im sure ill be pointed in the right direction, its still a while before its going to be ready, plus i havent got the rest of the things i need like fuel system and so on... ive learnt that all this building and modding is VERY EXPENSIVE lol its cost me an arm and a leg to get to where i am but i dont mind its been a bit of a dream of mine i want to get it out of my system! thanks again for the quick reply and ill try and keep this as up to date as possible!

Hi Everyone! I recently purchased an R34 GT-R having owned a R33 GTS-t before i always loved the skyline! Im planning on modifying just about everything and looking to have a nice tuff streetable and semi trackable GT-R by the end of it. The car is a 1999 R34 GT-R V-Spec in factory white purchased from a private sale (carsales.com.au) car is very clean apart from a couple of very very minor things which nobody else would care about but me (im very picky i guess) they are easy DIY fixes, but im very happy with the car money well spent in my eyes. The car has done about 100000kms, the stock cluster was replaced with a nismo cluster at 80000kms Its mostly stock with a few tastefull mods: Apexi Power FC D-Jetro Apexi N1 Evolution catback exhaust Apexi Super induction kit HKS EVC boost controller HKS turbo timer Type 1 Skylab TSC Nismo 330f steering wheel with works bell boss and quick release Nismo 320km/h cluster Nismo multifunction display Nismo super coppermix twin plate clutch and flywheel (im very impressed with this clutch, its very light and easy to use, you wouldnt even know it was a twin plate) Nismo side skirts and rear pods Nismo LED Tailights Nismo braided brake lines Project Mu slotted rotors and pads BJ Union HID Lights Ganador Mirrors Tein Super Street Coilovers and a few other bits and pieces not really worth mentioning. focusing on one area at a time first things first... Ive decided to build the engine straight up because im a little bored of the factory power, im looking for something responsive and streetable, but something that can be violent at the same time, and reliable ofcourse. Most of these ideas came from friends who have done this before, this is my first build. Ive chosen the RB30, then got talked into stroking it to a 3.2l for the extra torque and a T04Z for some response hopefully. Some of the parts are as follows... Prepped RB30 block Prepped RB26 head Nitto 3.2l Stroker Kit Nitto oil pump N1 water pump Tomei Procams 280 degree 11.5 IN and EX Tomei cam pulleys Darton sleeves Supertech valves, springs, etc 6boost exhaust manifold Hypertune intake manifold <---- Still to be orderd Rips Crank Girdle Garrett T04Z .82 rear Turbosmart 50mm Progate Extended Sump Engine is on the build, so it shouldnt be too far away unless we run into problems (knowing my luck) it will be a little while before the engine goes in becuase i still need fuel system, intercooler, and so on. While the engine is out i want to repaint the engine bay and have all the wiring hidden so everything is nice and neat. Heres some photos from carsales.com of the car just before it arrived Ive had it for about 3 months now and im very pleased

hey everyone been on the skylines forums for a while now... sold coupla things including my old R33 GTS-t wich i loved... picked myself up a beautiful R34 GT-R V-Spec today, Shenton your a legend!!! will post some pics once she gets a birthday finally got my dream car will post some pics soon hopefully wen i get a decent camera

hey davyboy, im looking to do a similar build your doing, 3.4 stroker with a single to4z, ive got a few parts together already and im hanging out to see how this kit performs. ive heard about spool doing a 3.4 stroker kit but a friend has told me that a comapny called nitto performance engineering are doing a sroker kit aswell but there are no details on their website yet.

hi guys, im hording together parts for my RB30 as we speak and i was thinking of doing a RB34 stroker, mates reckon it will be sweet i would love to see one in action, lets us know how it goes.
