I am just about ready to send my engine of to be built and i have a few quotes and know the parts i want however i have heard a few story about my first choise engine builder.

ACT region is preferible but a trip to sydney (or melburne If Highly Recommended)

Just getting a basic rebuild and head service.

New rods, pistons, and n1 oil pump. + bore etc

Indy @ I.S Motor Racing in Rockdale: 95999918

Built sh!tloads of top RB's, knows them back to front, really knows his stuff. Everyone can say so and so is the best, but, I'm going off proven results. Currently building a friend's car/motor. Same setup(motor wise) in a different car gave results of 500+kw atw easily/comfortably.

Another good mob at building engines are Thornleigh Cylinder Heads. Speak to Nas @ 99809454

I would reccomend proegnines too. especially if you are in canberra. he has built a couple of motors for friends of mine, and if I had to build mine I would strongly consider going down there to do it even though I'm in sydney.

Theres some interesting rumours going around. I haven't shut down, I'm still at the same address, just in one workshop instead of the two I had before. I have got out of general reconditioning and am concentrating on this type of work, as well as producing parts like the sump adaptors and crank collars (and oil pump gears when I get some spare time.)

The easiest way to get hold of me is by e-mail, [email protected] or phone 0448 826256. I got rid of the landline as I spent all day answering it and couldn't do any work while I was. Leave a message on the mobile if I dont answer and I'll get back to you.

Cheers,

Greg.

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
