yeh man looks schmick

im pretty sure andy's got a similar setup.

it'll be capped around 300kw though with the std manifold

yeh also think this would run out of puff on a 3L bottom end if i ended up going down that route

depends what your goals are really

the perfect combo would be a 3l and a 35R with the .82 rear. would make peak power aroun 7500rpm, but u could make it rev to ~8000rpm with some decent rods and quality balancing

I cant decide what my aims are haha

basically a daily driven street car tones of response maby 300-350ish kw

of the top of my head and my hand in my pants easy low 11s @ the bank and blow some bevan hsv arse on the street

also should be able to make a decent latte

i have heard some differing opinions on the 3L capacity to rev can you shed some light?

I cant see why you couldn't rev a built 25/30 to atleast 7 but i have been told otherwise

They do, if you keep that in mind and dont try and force it in it's no different. Just what your used to, drive it like a GTR box and it'll be biting back, spend some time getting used to teh goofy build and it's perfect

drive like a GTR box. man i remember slaming them shifts. chirp 3rd in awd mode lol

haha i remember that too!

im hating u for it now though. i coulda had a 700bhp 33 gtst by now :action-smiley-069:

nah im good at sourcing parts, he's helping me write a little letter

morning >_<

yeh it did, what else is new though lol

ohh interesting.. discuss

writing letters

i did that once.. police are waiting for one from me.

I did that once.

x2 tonight i am aswell

car prepped for wednesday nite?

yay.. coming out are we. my 180sx will be ther same with the RB20 sil S14 an integra and FC 13b

well rips over in nz have just built a 26/30 for their 240z drag car, are using std crank, std girdle, std block, argo rods, cp pistons and are revving it to 8500rpm. all their other built engines (similar spec) have been revving anywhere upto 8000rpm for years, not 1 failure.

mine'll be limited to around 8000rpm with the nitrous, but it could do 8500 easily with the grout filled block and billet girdle.

3L have bad harmonics in standard form apparently.

the stock rods which most people use don't handle too well with anything above 6500rpm.

nothing some nice forgies, knifebladed crank and basically a well balanced bottom end can't solve.

however the idea is that with a 3L donk, you'll be making the required power prior to 6500-7000rpm anyway so it's not a real issue.

*correct me if i'm wrong, but that's what i've encountered in my twin cam RB30 studies for the NA build

thats it exactly, bad harmonics with the std harmonic balancer, rods and rod bolts

an extra $1150 for a ross balancer & some rods fixes them issues quite quickly :action-smiley-069:

p.s. that's going to be one tasty datto.

theres vids of it on youtube

search for r.i.p.s 240z

2rismo reckons 33gtst @ 300rwkw = low 11s on street radials

2rismo is also a dirty nitrous and auto cheater :action-smiley-069:

and going to be even faster too! have you seen all his goodies that he's been stashing up

p.s. - what a sweet 240, would swap for a 240 or a 2 seater 260 anyday, plonk in an RB26/30DE - hellooooooooo

drive like a GTR box. man i remember slaming them shifts. chirp 3rd in awd mode lol

It’s all about doing it with some furness, not with the gusto all u drift kids use. It’s a fast box, if you keep in mine it’s single syncro, that’s slow compared to a double syncro modern box.

As I said, what you’re used to. Learn how to use it and its quick, treat it like modern box and it’s a box for barking back at your goofy changes

2rismo reckons 33gtst @ 300rwkw = low 11s on street radials

I ran a 11.8@121 on street tyres at street pressure on my 280rwkw tune @ 16psi

2rismo is also a dirty nitrous and auto cheater :action-smiley-069:

yes he is... >_<

Also I should point out the Autobarn sponcered R33 that ran in the modified street category back in 2004 had stock internals and a TD06 and that ran 10.7-10.9 all day every day...

It came in just on 300rwkw and the car was striped to the bare esentials, so she was a tad lighter than stock... ;)

But I guess it goes to show you can run the numbers in an R33 with around 300rwkw...

I found in my tests the more power i dialed in the slower i went, due to tyre spin... Thats why i bought MT's but never got around to using them as they didnt fit :P

I keep on thinking that f**king ant is something on my screen

Funniest thing is one night i actually had an ant on my screen... :action-smiley-069:

And thought it was Eug's little ant getting roudn the fourm, but when the real ant turned right too many times i realised it was real... >_<

    • Initially I thought having a pair of Recaro seats would be a big bonus, it turns out these do get a little uncomfortable on long journeys (my fault, not the seat). I had a look through the GSM Performance website at reclining seats and booked an appointment to visit their show room. I got the Recaro Sportster CS for the R34 from here, was very happy with the service received so of course a re-visit was in order. Unfortunately the two Corbeau seats I had chosen aren't on display but they had 4 other options available. Two seats dug into my back, one dug into my legs and the other was perfect. I also found out that Recaro seats use a larger bolt pattern so some adaption was required. Luckily GSM offer some universal adaptors that should solve this problem. I searched the interwebs for price comparisons and Corbeau themselves were the cheapest at £300 cheaper (for the pair). I asked GSM if they could price match, unfortunately they couldn't. I later received an email saying Corbeau would honour them the same discount, but the purchase was already made. I did however order the brackets from GSM, both arrived on the same day. I started with the passenger side seat, knowing this was going to be a little trial and error. There are 3 mounting holes at the front and 2 at the rear on these JURAN Racing seat rails.  With the adaptor brackets mounted, the allen cap bolts started to push into the seat, NOT GOOD!  The rear mounting holes lined up but there were issues at the front. The holes were 1/2 hole out, so the brackets got a tickle with the drill to modify the holes. The supplied bolts weren't going to be long enough and a spacer was needed to stop the adaptor bars from bending. A local fasteners company supplied be with some nylon spacers and longer bolts (M8x30, although these will be replaced with 35mm long shortly) A before and after I pre-drilled the front bracket before making a start on the driver's seat to save some time. And in no time at all that was in the car too. The all black seats have transformed the interior and these are MUCH more comfortable. The only downside with the new Corbeau seats is I sit a little higher, but I'll happily accept that over discomfort. The Youtube video can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wPyttKPktXA
    • All 3 I guess. The car came with the JASI Aero 4 door Type R Full Kit unpainted so this was one thing at the top of my list to complete then I noticed there were body panels parts for this kit so i picked them up along with some black mesh to fill in the front bumper and front side air vents. car is at a paint and body shop atm completing this work. Next I will be addressing the internal bells and whistles, great summer project I can do with the kids.  full interior removal - ,boys car sound deadening - pads and spray ,boys stereo, sound, lighting - Big 3, GTT or bigger alternator ,kids head lining - dye black add star lighting mod ,daughter. That's it for the next 5-6 months. I have some motor maintenance  work i have to plan out. oil filter relocation, gaskets, mounts. beyond that, mind is starting to turn over if i can use a DET intake plenum, block off turbo ports & pipe in a air intake.      
    • roller coaster of a ride. Alarm system was removed & main harness was repaired where possible. still no fix just random successful starts. moved on to the replacing the ignition switch and relay. well all this troubleshooting & repair has been going on, the car is at a paint and body shop being pushed around. Ive been going down there on odd days after work to get it sorted.
