  1. Gday,

    I'm interested in fitting the above transmission, so would like more info on it.

    If anyone could also point me towards their shop for some info it would be great, however, I am not in Australia.

    1. How difficult a job would it be? My mechanic is great but if it's like prototype development stuff I'll need to give it a miss.

    2. What car is the transmission from?

    Thanks in advance!

  2. I've got a rb26/30 with a big single in a bnr32 and the bonnet was a major headache.

    In the end, spaced out the bonnet frame with massive nuts (I think 10mm), cut the frames at the turbo and cambelt covers and even had to hammer out at the cambelt covers.

    Absolutely no way to fit strut brace.

    However with spacers, there is a good gap to allow hot air to escape from the engine bay.

  3. Hi guys and gals,

    I'm having multiple leaks with my BNR32 power steering system (also supplies HICAS on the bnr32).

    So I'm thinking take the whole HICAS system out and fit a new p/s pump.

    Been looking at R33 GTR pumps but not easy to find over here (Malaysia).

    But then heard about some people installing electric power steering pumps, like from the MR2 or Mercedes A-class.

    I just bought a tested and working one off ebay UK for only 48 pounds.

    So has anyone down under got an electrical p/s pump fitted? If you don't mind, could you post some info or pics on it.

    Thanks in advance!

  4. Ive seen rockabilly's video and IMHO it doesnt really help you to decide

    whether rb26 or rb30 is better on track. There's so many other factors other than just hp and torque.

    This may sound like heresy but if I was serious on a trackday car it wont even be a skyline. Rockabilly and his mate were easily overtaken by a caterham-type car, gt3 and a ford escort rs (hope i got the cars right LOL)

  5. Gday :)

    I'm from overseas but have got a friend in West End, Brisbane who has a container lined up to come back.

    I've already got a rb26/30 installed in my car at the moment but would like to have a spare just in case, they are as rare as hen's teeth over here.

    Does anyone have a spare rb30 block that can be delivered to my friend?

    Just need an empty block, don't need crank, pistons or rods (planning to go spool stroker kit).

    Please PM me :)

    Thanks!

  6. Correct the T04R and T04Z use the same wheels so the turbine and compressor housings interchange . Actually from memory HKS had the turbine blades slightly cropped in their spec Garrett cartridges but that's not of any real consequence . Other than that the only difference overall would possibly be the turbine housing if its a HKS special .

    The complete HKS T04Z uses different housings and would be the pick given a choice .

    Thanks...been reading lots of your informative posts too :P

    Do you know the major differences between HKS T04R and T04Z housings? Is it those cool looking anti-surge little holes?

    Does a CHRA upgrade mean new turbine and comp wheels as well?
