yeh it should pull pretty good :)

i only brought the stocko engine onto boost twice! i drove it back from newcastle off boost the whole way caus the clutch was stuffed that bad, then after putting the clutch in i smacked it side on into a gutter bending the left rear control arm, then the sat i got that fixed the engine let go

going to leave the stock turbos on for awhile and see what power i can get out of them, then i'll go the gtrs's ;)

get N1 turbo's they pull pretty hard i hear.

nah they'd be too small, id change the turbos now but i want to see what i can get out of the stockos with the 3ltr bottom end, plus the stock turbos r new, but when ive had enough of them im putting on the gtrs's, should be good for 700awhp

yeah they are a gun turbo. they spin like all buggery!

holy crap, how expensive are these..... http://cgi.ebay.com.au/CATCO-3-CAT-CONVERT...1QQcmdZViewItem

That is a very good price for what you are getting!!

Have a look around and make sure you check the flow rates as these are pretty much the best around. I think they usually go for around the $540 mark.

fair point

i picked up my new bottom end today :)

will be pulling out the 26 tomorrow and pull the head off to see what actually let go in it. then the 26 head and 30 bottom end are off to JHH next saturday to be built (fingers crossed nothing goes wrong)

if all goes to plan itll be back on the road in 3 weeks time, making some big numbers :)

He is THE man. Like when people talk about the man, its him.

Go next door to Johns, and see Daniel, talk to him about what turbos, he'll then put you on to Mike Vine. No doubt Daniel will tell you about this skyline they did a while ago, he is scared of that car. He is fine with the old jett racing RVR (which had that old datto ute motor in it) so yeah. Crazy car. Just talk to him hey.

farken turbos didnt want to come off did they, spent like 4 hours trying to get them off but nooo and i ended up running out of daylight too

all i've got left is to undo the drive shafts, then undo the engine/gearbox mounts and lift her out!

ill say this, damn the intercooler set-up is bloody weird! the way the bov's are run i mean, its like they designed the cooler and forgot about the bov's, and just whacked them in where ever they could

but i reckon i did pretty well seeing as i was the only one doing it, and i started at 9 plus it being the first time i've done something like this

cheers daveo...thinking about the turbos today, i think i might change them before the engine goes back in, caus i dont see how the hell u get them off whilst the engine is in the car..i even contemplated the idea of going a big single, even less of a pain in the ass lol

    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
