I will post up some with all the sponsors livery next week once it is all made public. Unfortunately it was bit of a rush to build as i only had a fortnights holiday to strip, mock-up 26, strip, paint then re-assemble..... but i am pretty happy with the way it turned out.

looking good. I'm keen to see and hear it with some RB power :)

Needs the T517Z's on my desk fitted then we will be happy..... the Std RB26 is no match for the old worked SR20 that was in it..... we thought we would get away with it in WA (as turbo's were still in transit) but we struggled majorly for power (4th gear track) Mallala should show its full potential.

Yeah, I saw it going around Wanners and it didn't look like it had enough grunt to get the wheels frying. Better luck for Mallala. Cat still seemed to draw a crowd though :)

That old SR was an animal, I only heard it on video but it was awesome.

I can't wait to see some RB26 powered Kuroi style runs from Cat...

I hope there are plans for the new Uras GT aero to go on it after the current aero gets damaged.

I saw it at a car show recently and it looks awesome

haha yeah for sure i love that kit.

the old TRUST SR20 i built for it is now resting in my kitchen :wub: , gonna give it a freshen. Not sure whether to sell or keep for a rainy day same with the $9k PPG box attached to it. SR stuff always comes in handy.

give it to me trent. I will make a home for it and the box in my GTST. i'll give you the old RB20 in it as swap. hell you get two more cylinders for free. can't argue with that kind of value.

edit: yes I love the new GT kit. almost enough to make me buy a 180. :wub:

hows the weight balance with the car with an extra 2 cylinders over the front wheels compared to the SR? Now that the same shell has been drifted with a SR and a RB, would make for an interesting comparison...

SR WINS HANDS DOWN. The setup works well but if was to build a serious track car i would not go down this path unless i moved engine back 15-20cm.

The SR was far nicer to drive in anger around a circuit, as for drift it (RB) works well but we spent a lot of time setting up the suspension.

Once the turbo's are on it will be quick but honestly a few more grand spent on the old SR (maybe a BC stroker kit) and it would match it (RB) fairly easy.

I am toying with completing the conversion the way i had originally planned, by installing the double wishbone front suspenion into the S13. I just ran out of time.

      That looks good, but I think you're going to need much beefier side skirts now.

      new 1.5 LSD issues/concerns

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I gotta pull you up on this. It's driving me crazy. A shutter is something that closes, like over a window or in a cmera. The word you want is shudder. That LSD is clearly f**ked. Take it to a diff shop and get it disassembled and examined by an expert. YOu might have plates welded together or something equally crazy.

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Check the Nistune doco. There are a few assumptions being made here that might not be valid. I will list the things that occur to me: Base map. Base map for what? Base map for Z32? Then the cranking pulse width is probably wrong for an RB25. The extra 500cc of capacity might well be enough to prevent it from catching. Base map for RB25? I don't think you can load one of those into a Z32. You have to just make the settings correct for an RB25 in the Z32 base map. That is either K or the TIM to get the pulsewidth right. Loom. You bought a loom for an RB. And you plugged it into a Z32 ECU. Did you make sure that any iwre differences were swapped. From memory, there's at least a couple. And as per the others, I would suggest making sure that the fuel pressure is correct while cranking and that the injectors are actually flowing as expected. They really must come out and go on the bench, unless you do find that you have messed up as per above points. I would also suggest watching in Nistune to make sure that everything is reading correctly. That the correct binary flags are raised at the right time (like the crank signal), that there's no stupid values in K or TIM. That you have not got mismatched firmware for the ECU and/or a wrong image loaded.
