Swiper..please elaborate on some details of the stealth bomber..im curious as to why your not using the 2.8 that you have for sale.

Im tempted to put your 2.8 short in my car...damn house renovating sucking the cash though.

one word...Nitto.

The stealth bomber will look like a standard car, sound like a standard car but go like a supercar. Its the only way to do them these days with all the negative views towards the modified car scene. Under the bonnet the car will appear to be totally standard but will be nudging 400KW. The brakes and suspension will be big dollar top shelf stuff though and may give the game away. Croydon Racing will be in charge of the tuning and set-up.

I can do a head identical to the one on my racecar as a 20K long engine package if you like.

Not that nitto chinese crap HAHA, my sarcasm at its best!

Pauln the r32gtr is a japanese supercar in its standard form...the aust delivered gtr hit the market in 91 @ 130k :)

Can't wait to see the new toy though, twoogles brother from the same mother!

Yeah...its really painful to hear opinions from people who have had absolutely no experience with a product but seem to be an expert overnight.

The Nitto will rev much better than the Tomei, will work properly straight out of the box and be stronger.

I have been looking at the nitto stuff lately too..i like the fact they are are 4340 & full counterweight unlike most others in a stroker.

To be honest i will be pushing near 400kw soon with the engine thats already in the car,& everthing looks stock also.

Watcha gonna call it Paul. Threegle ? :P

(Cryptic or what) :)

Twootl...TWO.07L...lol

Nah it will wear the old plates on it and its silver...so really look the same as the old car did 5 years ago.

mmm...full counter goodness...i beam rods...JE ring package...and check the cross-section of those gudgeons.

couldn't agree anymore with your statement!

what nice gear nitto make :P crd delivers yet again!

It will be very interesting to see what the 180 cc (or whatever it is with the NITTO stroker) will do to your power graph with your sexy head. Still RS's Paul?

turbo's will be not quite RS'...too big for my driving ability...or lack there of on a circuit.

spent a big day at CRD with Jim and Con...car is making some good progress. Testing on Monday at Sydney Dragway...will be a good day.

Many thanks to CRD for sorting the car out...should be quick.

Theo has the worlds best job...jim tunes the cars and theo 'test drives' them lol...good bloke though!

We are making more power than before...but the torque graph tells more of a story...peak torque earlier in the rev. range and holds the line almost horizontal all the way to 10 000rpm.

:(

    • Just wanted to pop in an update on my setup. The CD swap has been great, I love the mazworks housing for the overall simplicity. I ended up sealing my trans tunnel with a thin sheet of aluminum reused some of the holes on the trans tunnel, and laid some window sealing EPS foam around the edges. Works great, really quieted things down and sealed up the car.  As for the power comment. Right now I am also running about 650whp. with the way the bell housing is attached to the face of the transmission I have zero doubts it would be fine, mainly because the input shaft and main shaft bearings are seated into the bell housing adapter. This means the load is NOT on the bolts to maintain the power, rather into he casing of the bell housing; Yes the bolts are doing some work there, but with both shafts locked in zero worries.  End of the day, the Mazworks solution is the easiest and safest. no need to take your trans to a shop to get milled perfectly, it fits with minimal clearancing, and you can use all your existing clutch and flywheel.  Driving wise the CD has been great compared to the big box, I'll probably swap my final drive at some point. The serial 9 shifter is gooooood, my only qualm is how tight it is, it takes a fair bit to get use to, 5th and 6th are a bit eh/hard to find at times, but maybe I need re-adjusting, and I think my clutch master is very tired and needs a rebuild. 
    • If you are keen, have a look at my build thread. Car is for sale for the right money or straight swap for a F80 M3 LCI.
    • Welcome mate.  No point in over thinking it, buying any one of those cars you mentioned is not a smart or logical choice with the availability of many "better" (re price to performance) cars available to you.  The heart wants what the heart wants, buy whatever it leads you too.
    • Hey everyone! Im so grateful to be apart of this community and ill do my best to be apart of this. Firstly, i'm not disclosing my real name due to in real life circumstances surrounding my privacy and public image (sorry lol) Secondly, The only thing personal I am willing to share is that I'm from Sydney and a descendant of one of Sydneys largest mortgage firms. I got gifted my first ever car, a 2022 Porsche Cayenne and I love it to death. Ive been driving it for about 5 or 6 months now and honestly Im so grateful for my parents for gifting me this vehicle. However recently I've been working my ass off to afford my second car (which I need help deciding soooooo community help me out please?). Once decided, im planning to try modify it myself. Recent I've been thinking about getting a Skyline, particularly a 25GT or GT-V, yes I know overrated as hell, but I'm also considering a Chaser which I recently came to love. However my dream is to one day own a 180SX (So hard to find clean versions and im not really into importing).  Lastly before I send this off, I want to apologize if I sound tacky or pretentious. I try not to and want to genuinely learn from everyone and anyone. (Im no expert in this area) Thanks for reading!
