Zertek - you have PM.

B-Man - rods are gone and pistons are ordered.

John - you should know all about talking to RB25 parts being a fellow short-stroke tragic!

benm - Please tell me where the camera is placed in my bedroom?! I didn't think anyone could see me with the parts!

:D

  • 4 weeks later...

Some new bits coming:

....BUT without the pickup and with a -12 male fitting on the side.

...and some pulleys to suit.

I was expecting carnage when the motor was pulled down but it was a simple case of a 2-inch section of ringland from number one gone and number two losing tension in the rings. Every rod, bore, piston (apart from no.1) and the crank look perfect. A bit disappointing when you're expecting some serious carnage but a good thing when you're building the same motor.

More to follow soon.

i see u've gone softcock on the oiling.

here i was thinking u were a serious drag racer :mellow:

good enough set-up for a well known GTR to run 8's with

makes my Jun pump and 9 litre baffled sump look like a limp dick

Thats hardly carnage at all?

Thats weaksauce man... it still would have run a few more passes... albeit a bit smokey :sorcerer:

Looking good with the new party pack 'o parts you have there.

Gate is love

I was genuinely disappointed with the result - should have run another pass or 12 on the bottle huh?!?!

It wasn't running that well to be honest.... Sounded nearly as shithouse as an SR20DET.

Gate is love. :)

buy me an auto aswell and i'll agree :D

P.S i've been building my gtr for the last ~13months :)

Come on!!! I've only got a weeny little RB25 and a baby GT35 and you've got a twin cam 3L and 4WD. Surely the auto is the leveling factor?!?!

:D :D :D

    • 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
