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

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.

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 :)

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
