  1. yes we are aiming for a peripheral port idle….basically this motor is all top end and will be spit monster flames 

    dose, thx for the support, we all know he is going to get lunched by the VVL professor, I have no doubt about it…. He is doing a mid sized build where as mine is an all-out Mack daddy build

    Not only that I’ll bring cash to this gunfight, this Nagoya street drag special is gonna have serious pull

     

  2. Just got some photos of the head now that it has been given the full 12,000rpm pamper package

    might need to add another fuel rail as this puppy is gonna drink some juice

    Copper valve seats , custom valves and peripheral ported intakes/exhaust (yes I know it’s not a rotor but I’m just giving everyone an idea of how full tilt the portjob is)

    basically the ports are that big you would think a Guinea pig could fit in there

    With an EFR9280 I think I would have no trouble wiping the floor with R32-25T’s 6870 billet block GTR

  3. I'm not sure why you removed the sound deadener??? 

    Don't bother with DIY remedies... this is how you can do it properly.

    For the lightly stained areas, just stick to a fine grade wet sand paper....and then paint over once the stain is gone.

    For the worst areas...especially the pitted ones...you just need to sand the rust in the localised spot working down from a heavier grit to medium grit wet sandpaper, which will get most of the rust off. It's just localised rust from the spare wheel touching the boot. Don't go to town on sanding the whole boot...not needed! Try to avoid sanding the seam sealer etc (obviously)

    After the rust spots are down to bare metal - use a fine brush dipped in "RUST DEOXIDISER"...and carefully apply this to the little rust areas. It's important the chemical you use is DEOXIDISER.

    After applying that, let it sit for a while and obviously wipe off with prepsol before it dries, and repeat 3-4 times. If you go to a panel shop they will probably be able to sell you some - as the trade products are a shitload stronger than retail products.

    After deoxidising the rust, scuff the surrounding paint with red scotch brite....& then you are ready to apply etch primer and then paint the matte gray colour on. Mask up the surrounding area using tape & paper..... as you don't need to paint the whole boot, just blend it in and keep the repair as small as possible. Spray can paint or spray gun depending on your level of expertise will be fine.

    Probably will cost you about $100-$150 in materials.

  4. Nismo BCNR33 400R advertised for sale by Harlow Jap Autos for 2.8 Million AUD.

    As expected we are approaching Ferrari F40 money on many of these cars which was to be expected.

    The Skyline is just a poster icon for the 90's generation. Obviously, us people born in the 90's or of course...the Gran Turismo generation, are hugely responsible for surging the values especially with many becoming rich through YouTube, Crypto, et al. Naturally, the older generation now show appreciation for the cars after realising "what they had", creating huge worldwide demand.

    https://www.harlow-jap-autos.co.uk/stockcode/hja400r40

    I still stick to my comments that we will see BCNR33's at the 300k mark, probably more, sooner than everyone expects...the BNR34 will be unaffordable to most and will drag the value of the BCNR33 up as a result.

    Trouble is, it is an investment with no actual value. Objectively the cars are truly worthless when they are "priced" at those sorts of numbers, because you can't buy one with the intention to drive it, if you also want to be able to obtain a massive capital gain. People paying massive prices for these cars are buying something that is supercar money without supercar performance, and in order to preserve the "value", you can't even use what performance it does have. So the whole "I've always wanted one of these, I love the performance and the way they drive, and now I have the money to afford it" line you hear is a complete load of shit. It might have been believable at the $50-100k price region, but it just bullshit at multiples of that.

    Supercar buyers have the money to pay for supercar mods.

    Some people live life with a "money is no object" approach and that's the reality for people buying Skylines now

  6. I guess it’s wait & see. I think 430kw plus a sequential is the same as a 530kw h pattern car.  

    CD009 6 speed would of been ideal but don’t fancy belting the transmission tunnel or having the transmission hang below chassis rails.

    Im planning for mine to be an all rounder , mainly street with a thorough dash of circuit and occaisonal roll racing.

    Cam gears + VVL? I reckon you'd be hard pressed to lose any notable response. It's still only a 4cyl in the end though. 

    Will be interesting to see how our graphs compare as I went the Kelford VVL cams but don't have the displacement increase. Different intended usage though I guess and I assume you will be going for more power than I need for track work. 





     

    I think it'll be a very interesting comparison between our motors... my aim is around the 435rwkw with bulldog response. Have you decided on turbo yet?

     I'll be running a reinforced DET timing chain as there is some stories floating around of the P12 timing chain snapping. 

    You can actually buy a VCT conversion front cover for the SR20VE motor now, meaning you'd have both VCT and VVL. This really would bring an SR into V8 response territory. I'd imagine custom cams would be needed & then the whole issue as to whether VCT would start rattling led me to abandoning the idea.

  8. Well - It turns out ordering a wet oil pump really was a facepalm moment. I won't embarass myself going into details, but yes, that wet oil pump won't be needed.

    Months later I'm continuing to annoy the hell out of two blokes who got this build off the scenic route years ago & onto the Autobarn expressway, and now we are squeezing the throttle as we come onto boost with "The Badger".

    After a 5 month search, finally found VVL exhaust rocker arms. S13 Block & X-Trail GT head are paid for.

    The rundown is:

    2.2L Sleeved block. Liners will be copper. The crank caps will be billet. A block brace was most certainly avoided.

    It's getting Carillo Pro H beam rods and custom CP gas ported pistons. Wrist pins will be thick wall. 

    Valves are getting oversized and the valve seat rings are copping the NASCAR treatment, no, they won't be berrylium, it'll be the secret sauce that E85 won't eat for breakfast.....

    My next post will be when the engine build kicks off & gets underway.....

    Injector have been changed twice and turbos 3 times 

    at least I’m not the mack daddy of the 80k rust bucket 

    850s

    1000s

    1250s

    Then 1650s

    come on Brett… I thought you did the maths, & do it once and do it right?

    I’ll stick with my Mack daddy “rust bucket” thanks, at least it has a blue plate 😂😂😂

    People are always envious of other peoples success 

    success in GTR scene is what maatouks have achieved and what HKS & JUN did back in the early to late 90's.

    im sure when a big bloke makes a special albins sequential & cant even get a shifter linkage finalised after 10 months

    things are on the upswing.....

    Was talking to Herman at gtr fest and any block that has been sleeved he automatically condemns it 

    You're actually going to listen to him? What NASCAR or time attack motor has Herman built?!

    I'll be running an 86.5mm piston and the words told to me were "Inserting a sleeve liner is effective because it eliminates the heat point of the cylinder block".

     

     

  12. You guys are honestly desk chair professors.

    Please tell me any other way you will be happy other than to handpick your turbo (with KNOWN casting issues). These casting issues have been talked about for AGES!!!

    Borg Warner clearly aren’t changing their approach - their quality control clearly has a line in the sand, the other solution would be a mass boycott and mass complaint - which won’t happen!!!!

    I win because my solution is the only rock solid fix at this point in time
