The car must pass an emissions test, he did say there wouldn't be issues if it ran on the std ecu as airflow is relative.

What sort of emissions test though, if it's the $3000.00 mitsubish plant one, bugger that. :laugh: You interstate guys would be okay though I'd say if thats all it needs.

Just thought I would bump this 20 year old thread because the Skid Factory have just posted up a video summarising a lot of the content, format might be more familiar for newer members

New nissan blocks come blank, so transferring numbers on nissan motors is legal.

Your more likely to get defected over the custom inlet manifold, and bodykit sitting too low....

My car finally idles properly THANKS CUBES! Joel came over and gave me a handle for a couple of hours great bloke! Found out that my AAC valve was totally stuffed from the sand blasting, was completely full of sand, no wonder it wasnt working :D. Now she idles perfectly i just have to wear her in and then she'll be ready for a dyno tune ;) .

she'd be right mate, thats the fully sick port and polish with grit isnt it?? :dry: Hes just taken the joke a little bit too literally without even realising it. haha.

But yeh obviously were hoping no sand in anywhere else.

On a side note, i got the jun collar fitted to the crank by the machinist, and i fitted the water pump and oil pump and put the new tensioner on the block. The new motor is coming together very nicely.

Think Joel's going to have to start charging for his time soon, hehe! He was a great help with getting my baby going and probably couldn't have done it without him!

Can't wait to see your results foolboost, we'll have to have an r32 rb30 get together i reckon with all these rb30's in 32's here in Adelaide!

Mmmm, just had a thought about a special stand/group of r32 rb30's at small car sunday!

I found with measurements the closest point was the front of the plenum then as it moves back the clearance increases a little.. But not by much as a simple throttle body hose clamp sitting up will touch the bonnet underlay or what ever it is. :D

Get to it FOOLBOOST.. You have another plenum there should you go through it. :S

ahh right ...

friend is going through the build for an R33, just trying to work out the clearances etc see if there is a way around the mod to the engine mounts or front facing plenum ..

cheers

Just blocked off the front feed with a brass bung and put the tomei restrictor in the back. I know the guide said 1mm feed, but the ones we machined up with the 1mm hole were too sloppy and didnt have anymore time to stuff around making another one. Eitherway its gotta help, especially with the rear welsh plug gone and a line down to the sump.

On another note, the high energy sumps are nice. Nice work, very simple in design, im kicking myself now cause my idea for the old sump was very similiar to what the high energy one is:( But its a good setup, next to only a dry sump system id say.

Build so far includes,

RB30 S2 block, 20thou oversize for CP pistons, Scat I beam rods, RB25DET VVT Head has been port and polished, tomei 256 8.5mm cams, N1 oil pump, JUN collar, R33 S2 Water pump, Greddy plenum, q45TB, S/S manifold with a gt35r with .82 housing. Heap of other stuff. Ill get some pics when its done tomorrow night or sat. Should look good when its all done. Were hoping for around 450hp at the rears.

      Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
