He has a GTR - thats the definition of taste.

maybe :whistling:

sweet, so its tools out tonite and put them on? or r u not that keen and ull do it tomorrow?

Nah forget that - spun bearing, so ive got 2 new paperweights until i fix the motor

>_<

power fc, blitz ebc id III, fuel pump & clutch line arrive next week :whistling:...taking 2 weeks off work after next week to get the engine bay painted, and to get the engine on its way :D

Hahahaha, yeah, the only bad thing about an RB26 - bearings

Havnt pulled the motor out yet so im not sure >_<

Should be doing it next weekend though :D

ShaneF after going through the engine bay painting exercise be careful about the rubber seal round the ecu loom as if that is damaged it is a pain in the a$$ to get another one

thanks for the heads up mud, will make sure we dont damage that in ny way

all i can say is...HAVE FUN!!!

oh btw, be prepared for one of the engine mounts to get stuck, and if it does, dont just jack it up higher, caus they split in half :whistling:

Yeah, rods, crank, pistons, bearings. Also oil pump, headwork, cams, turbos

if your doing that much work, why not whack in an rb30 bottom end? then u can run bigger turbos, and not have it as laggy :whistling:

    • You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?
    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
