I guess its what you prefer more but i disagree, heaps of torque in the gtr motor makes it very hard in a rwd car specially with my 2way. just trying to corner fast means i have too slow down a bit more than and accelerate latter than say a r25 with a big turbo and more lag. thats just what i found but im no expert by all means, and still quite young with driving experience but i would rather have bought a gtr motor in a gtr would have made the driving experience more better personally.

the GTR motor isnt making "that much" more than an RB25

If the power delivery is reasonable liner there shouldnt be a lot of issue.

I ran 270rwkw in my HR and had no traction problems. Foot control

The funny thing on that thread is that the guy that was looking for the owner of the green car, is the guy selling this car, he apparently bought the number plates of the green car.The car has been tuned and with RB26 and was installed at Ice Performance, engine out of a 98 R33 Vspec only a few months back. It has been registered with Vic Roads with the new engine and looks and drives pretty good apart from the veilsaide body kit.

n is it white? :unsure:

n is it white? :unsure:

Hey guys, thanks for all the replies and yes it is white and i am not sure what happened exactly to the engine but all I know is that went HARD in first and was too late changing into second. I know, have a laugh cause thats what i did, but hey, the best $5K I have ever spent as far as fun factor for about 2-3 seconds. I will let you guys know what happens over the next few days or weeks and I am with PIMP DAT on the foot control thing, has a mind of its own obviously with blowin up my GTR. :yes:

Hey Guys, Looking at gettingn into an 95GTST with a RB26, Pwr FC, and a few other little things. Its a melb car no plate "HOTLNE" I am not sure any of you know it but if you do can you give me a heads up and also what problems may i come accross with a RB26 install on a gtst? Thanks.

"HOTLNE"

Is that a white r33 gtst with a veilside kit.

the guy works at kmart tyre and auto at knox city

    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
