HAve you looked at the 3.4l stroker kit? I know its a little bit more, but its good value if you can stretch a grand or two more.

By the time you by rods, pistons, rings, rod bolts and bearinigs, and balance you're around $3k - $3.5k

3.4L stroker has a new crank, rods, pistons, bolts, bearings and rings and is $5k. I think it is already balanced.

WHen you think about it, $1500 really isn't that much more for a torque monster. Plus you wouldn't have many lag issues.

WHERE the f**k u getting these prices from.... $3k for rods, pistons ect.... what are they beryllium ?? or are u buying these and adding on the miner tax ??

well..I just checked and the prices have dropped a little since i looked last. But pretty close..

GOOD Pistons & Rings $1400

Spool Rods: $700

Rod Bolts: $200

Bearings: $200

Balance: $400

Crank Collar & Fitted: $200

Total: $3100

Crank journals \ Block tunnels might need machining - $possible $500 - $1k depending on what needs to be done..

I'd even get the crowns of the pistons and the combustion chambers HPC'd. Price isn't too bad. Just need to balance after this is done.

3.4 Stroker, with all of those parts, already balanced with a brand new crank that is capable of high revs, is only $5k..

Then buy a GTR one day and transfer this bottom end to it... lol

To me it just seems like a better buy and more piece of mind.

I want to stick with the RB25. For what I want it to be, anything over an RB26 is useless. I'm not a racer, drifter or anything. Just want a safe motor and tune that has some balls that MIGHT have a chance against a SIL80 that will be around the streets shortly.

She'll be a screamer. Can't wait to hear it on gate, haha. I don't know who is tuning it yet, he hasn't told me I don't think. But deadset, the turbo on it is going to suck small children in if he drives past a school or even a pregnant woman.

That's the kit I was looking at. Want to keep 2.5L, but the reality is that even the $2,000 for that is out of reach at the moment when im paying off stuff, saving for a house and saving for an overseas holiday on apprentice wages. The 33 is taking a backseat to more important things at the moment, but one day I'll get a rebuild kit, spray and tidy up the engine bay, and make the engine look pretty like my VL RB30

Then it will be 24psi of HKS fury pumping into that engine haha

Bit of a let down ATM but trying to work with HKS to work it out

243rwkw @18psi

But I think I accidentally knocked the timing back a bit when I put my new timing cover on. Will check that and then see if it feels any better

    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
    • EMU Classic. For what I need it to do I see no reason to upgrade. Link and Haltech would both cost an extra chunk of money for a lot of unutilized features
