Poor Rb20det, Finaly Being Put Back Together...

[R31 POWER]

Yeah baby *Nods*

[AzzurrA]

I think i'm in love

[TTT]

roy you love that clip..

hahahaha

but I do watch the whole clip each time you post it..

[RB SANDY]

I hate those clips you can’t save them (very GOOD sounding rb20)

[Roy]

Id rather the power Carlh makes:( The GT30R sounds crazy too, so i cant wait to see (hear?) his results.

[FATGTS-R]

Im still the winner so far!!

With a plain bearing internal gated dinosaur from 1987

But when carls is finished it should be a serious piece of gear. Glad to see someone throw some serious coin at an RB20 and share all the details as well. For that I congratulate you and wish you all the best..

[Roy]

back in your box. you lucky devil got most of the good gear from the factory (manifold, turbo, fmic etc)

I cant help but wonder how cool RB20s would have been if Nissan kept with the GTS-R theme with the R32 and Touring Car racing. We would all be driving cars with the grunt that yours and Carlh are makinh

[carl h]

final assembly done...motor is due to go into car tommorow with any luck it will be done.

brand new nismo motor mount modded to clear compressor inlet, its a tight fit inside the car.

proly gonna have to replace these lines, supply water to and from the turbo, but shifted and took some heat from the turbo manifold.

[Roy]

Now that the engine is fresh and with forgirs, what boost are you goign to run?

Garn on!!!! Give it 22psi:)

[Bl4cK32]

lol...looks great. Ive got the same manifold, and i want to use the same turbo (Well...garrett equiv. of the 3037s, and internal gated 0.87 rear) on my engine. Will be good to see as a comparo

[MattSR]

22psi? I wanna see it swallow 30psi!

You know its good for it...

[Cubes]

Yer don't be SOFT!!!

Awesome stuff carl...

You appear to be a picture man like myself.. Keep them coming.

[180bfj20det]

Im with mattsr and cubes!!!!!!!! Give it some real boost. After all, that GT30R is only having fun at 22 psi and you have engine capable handling more now. Bring it on

I have been watching this thread. Beautiful work. Cant wait to see the results.

BTW where did you get the turbo from? I thought the "real" GT30R still werent available in Aus....

You know that you now have wet our appetites with pics , so we're gona want some audio clips when its done

Ciao

thanks for the kind words...going to school and trying to rebuild a car is hard, so its taken a while to work and save money to fix the old girl.

im actualy in the USA, so i got the turbo here no problem, www.phoenixturbo.com was the place where i got mine and they were great to deal with...

i look so much fatter than i am, damn baggy shirt...

chromemoly flywheel, guy i got it from put it on drove 5 ft and took it off...

infamous xtd clutch, better not let me down as my last one was amazing.

oil line clearance

clearance of fittings and said lines in the head with motor in the car...

turbo clearance against r32 xmember, mount kits proly would not work...

Heaps of room! Try it with a .7 comp cover

[nizmo_freek]

Awsome work, great to see someone finally putting some effort into the good old rb20!!

[R31 POWER]

OMG how nice does it all look in there!! I think it's time for a RB25det box

[kwazza11]

Awsome work Carl, looks top notch and should make some awsome numbers. what was the head stud kit worth? what head gasket did you use?

Damn HKS low mounts and tiny engine mount clearance, my 2871r with a .6 cover only just fits aswell, make sure you get some tough intake piping to stop it rubbing through when your engine bucks.

I hate those clips you can’t save them (very GOOD sounding rb20)

if its youtube or google vid then you can. Google something along the lines of "saving youtube videos" and there is a script to install on mozilla (shit quality, but hey)

[RB SANDY]

thanks
