I know it was a shitty ass post but i kind of ran out of time, rb26 over sized to 2.7L forged pistons stock rods new bearings, metal head gasket head studs, the head is ported and polished ferrara valves hks springs retainers and 272 cams cam gears, stock intake manifold custom exhaust manifold for twins t3/t4 turbos greddy oil pump ati damper electromotive engine management 1000cc injectors, the motor is in a s13 body i hope this answers everyones question if you have any please feel free to ask.

any more detail on the turbos and manifold arrangement (waste gates etc)

I will get the pics by the end of the week and post it, and guys dont be haters if your car does not make that kind of power hahahah.

mate i think its more the fact of common sense, y stinge on rods in a 650rwhp engine? forged rods aint expensive, and do u really wanna be pulling it down again cause its broken one ?

i think u have saved money in the wrong area and the internals r more important than a better intercooler or stuff like that, cause that stuff can be changed later without hassle.

each to their own, and good work as i said :(

I can just see it now.. the media going crazy about a car bomb terrorst attack.

Just stay away from the main city's and our schools!

What if it does (nearly) and we are still haters ?

EDIT: Sorry if that sounds cold, but man can you blame us from the vagueness of the info given, the construction of the initial post, the failure to forward any concrete evidence, supporting information etc. Not to mention the skepticism over your choice of rods, by myself and others.

Props to you if your the real deal, just way too many dickheads around to believe shit like this off the cuff... back it up, or shut it up, thats what i reckon.

KW told me he ran a rebuild n1 engine all nissan std part to a 10.3 with the twin trust turbo set he runs know for sometime before sell it to a motorkana dude (you need to be made some serious hp to run 10.3). His belief was the std engine is good to around 750bhp and the first thing he talked about braking was the block not the rods.

pete

ps i run forged rods for piece of mind

no offence but i will back my shit up alright since you runnin your mouth off but the question is what do you have to to back up with besids a big mouth and a attitude, i know my initial post was shitty and i said that and i also know it is hard to believe stuff like this off the cut but damm give a guy a break here i said i was goin to post it before the week is done then we will see who is talkin shit and who is not.

r stock rods capable of over 650rwhp without failing???

awesome results none the less :D

post dyno sheet :happy:

how do u find the ati dampener? how much are they worth new? where to get em from? any details appreciated mate

I will get a price on the damper for you there is a website you can go to it is www.atidampers.com i am in the us so shippin was not too much, but it is worth gettin the damper i have seen proof of that especially when you are makin 500 plus hp.

There is a pattern here.

Random person who has barely posted if at all comes on here with a thread stating 11ty bazillion rwkw with no dyno sheet, pics or list of mods done.

25 keyboard warriors hang shit on him.

He counters with a few scant more details which contains a comment of a stock part that most people think should be upgraded - eg injectors, rods.

The whole forum hangs shit on him for using that stock part saying his motor will blow up any second now.

End result:

The newbie who has spent many hours and $ on his Skyline thus generating some knowledge tries a few more times but the lines are drawn and he fades away.

Possible solution:

We can't pre-educate the newbies so we have to expect their behaviour and cater to it. Perhaps in a more pleasant manner. Obviously forum slamming is fun but it doesn't add to the community assets.

Have a nice day. :P

Quite a few of the reputable workshops in Australia have told me correctly prepped stock rods with suitable rod bolts will hold quite alot of power and 9000rpm without a problem (as long as youre not hitting 9000rpm all day every day).

I know of a RB26 running 520rwkw in its street driven trim with stock rods, has never had a problem in its life. The only failure of the conrods you generally hear about is due to oil related issues, not the strength of the part itself.

In saying that though, for $900 you may as well chuck a set of Eagle rods in it for a bit of extra safety.

And more importantly he should learn how to structure sentences, not just have 1 long sentence which ends up reading like blah blah blah

    • Yeah, plenty of air flow, there is a dedicated path that feeds the air in to the OEM intake tube behind the bumper As for a "tangible effect", maybe, but getting the pod/intake air out of the hot engine bay is worth it psychologically to me, even if it gives no performance difference, so the tangible effect in my Lizard brain saysss yessss  In the end, to me a tangible effect isn't always about performance, sometimes it a sound or a look, or even a...... feeling  Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga Ooga-Chaka Ooga-Ooga
    • yeah first and reverse is where you will find clutch release issues (whether hydraulic or mechanical) because the difference in revs required is the highest there; particularly changing down from 2nd to 1st when still moving. To be clearer though, it is possible that the clutch release bearing is the wrong height. This is less likely than a hydraulic issue but it is not unheard of when you are mixing and matching
    • Quite right, if you make it to that pension you deserve every cent
    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
