Evening all,

No new updates, Paul's picking up the 9ltr sump tomorrow and from talking to Paul on Tuesday he mentioned I may have the engine back by the end of next week!

Now I am still waiting on the Hypertune Intake and Throttle Body... Hope to hear Monday that it will also ship next week!

Looking at pulling the box out and having it rebuilt, if anyone knows a good gearbox place in Brisbane for GTR box's let me know.

Also looking at running the car on the Green stuff but it's a big commitment at $2.50ltr

Cheers

In about 2 weeks ill be able to show you my brothers rb24 build. Mechanics are arseing around a fair bit. Should have been on the dyno last week........

Used a mixture of tomei parts and rb26. Ported head (tomei cams to come after a few thousand kms) garrett gt3040r turbo, nistune ecu. Made well over 220rwkw with the worst tune ever (stock r31 ecu and SAFC2 lol)

He is hoping for over 300rwkw after the cams go in.

Oh and its in a black HR31 coupe. :P

Howdy All,

Thought I would post some teasers to how it's coming along.

Firstly, Apologies for the quality of the pics.

What lift cams are you running and compression ratio to have to relieve the pistons? Was that a custom order?

Tomei 270 9.25mm Lift, Comp Ratio is in the High 8's and pistons are custom order from ROSS Pistons in the USA.

what kind of plenum did you use from hypertune, and how much pm me if you dont want to disclose on thread, reason i ask as i am looking at getting a plenum and chasing info and options lookf forward to the dyno and another stroked rb20 i can associate with

cheers yt

Hmmmm... twins?

Hmm Correct... But what twins?

motor looks sexy, will be interesting to see what the dyno yields at the end of it.... :P

Indeed it will be we are looking for a very reliable 400rwkw - Well I am at least :)

Plenum and 90mm Throttle body came in around the $2000 as was custom made by Pete and the boys.

    • Nope, I don't like the look of ND RF, or any ND really, I don't like their faces or arses, why, because of their "modern" lines, the NC, whilst "modernish" has a more rounded shape that I like Well, that's how my overly judgemental eyes see it anyway  
    • Should be more than fine, especially the overall fuel pressure would never exceed 3.5bar (assuming that thing never gets more than 0.5bar of boost in stock form). According to the chart, it's 11amps.
    • I definitely know the first rule here, look first, ask second. I've seen many people get roasted 😂 I found a few diagrams for the RB, but I'm yet to come across one for the VQ. From what I have read, the pump gets the +12v along with the FPCM, and it's the negative wire that gets passed through the resistor to regulate the voltage. So I assume I can just ground the negative wire at the pump to eliminate the FPCM control. But I really wanted to see the VQ circuit diagram first to make sure I understood it correctly. Once the new pump is in I'll do some testing to see how it behaves, and in the meantime, I'll keep looking for a wiring diagram. Thanks for your help mate, your time is greatly appreciated.    
    • Maybe? I have the Supercheap ToolPro low thingo. It has a somewhat smaller diameter lifting "bowl" than you would expect on a workshop grade trolley jack, and a split rubber pad to suit that diameter. It clears the "N1" style skirts I have. Probably wouldn't if the jack's bowl and a suitably larger rubber block were in use. Having said that though.....you only need the rubber block to exist on the inner side of the pinchweld, so could carve away any rubber that fouled the skirt, leaving some there for "insurance" </simples>
    • I used to do that (sills with rubber jack block).. ... then I got side skirts, and there's no way for the jack to actually work there, the jack pad itself on the jack is too big. Is the answer to use a... smaller (?) jack? Hmmm.
