yeah i can dream. but no matter what it a rb26 will be going in there.

got some brembo's going on after the wheels are on also. then most likely do every mod that will support the rb26, eg fuel set up, braking and handling etc

will most likely got rb30 bottom end.

Dam straight Damo would rather do SAU them heroin gts4 are 4.1 because they share the same parts from the gtr i think r32 gtst is 4.3 because of the lack of torque from the rb20

Ok, worked out who you are.

Missed the whole car change thing from the GTS4.

I'm ex KMIF if you don't remember who I am.

Yep, had the R34 since november last year and sold the 32 gts-4 the december before to sky30.

the gts-4 is now pushing out over 350awkw i think.

I remember the old days when we used to work at kmart together. ;)

397rwkw and soon fingers crossed 410-420rwkw ;)

It must be an absolute monster.

Chops.... Andrew(sky30) had it making 380rwkw for some time on the stock 300,000km+ Rb30 bottom end. 7k rev limiter due to stock rods at the time. I don't believe it ever blew just upgraded. :sick:

Yeah RB30 requires emissions testing.

Depends if they can tell there's a 3ltr block under there with all the crap hanging everywhere and bottom engine bay cover.

Its quite difficult to pick.

Whats the go with engineering the emissions in Adelaide rb25/30,custom plenum and power fc. Im about to put 10 Grand in to my r33 motor this year but dont wana go rb25/30 if i cant engeineer anythink.

Iv also been thinking of putting the 10grand into my rb25det(internals only) but still would need to engineer greddy plenum and power fc. Iv also herd that you can have a larger turbo but need to stay in the Emissions range. Iv talk to a few ppl about what im looking at doing but stilll lost so i rang up regency but they said do the work and come down and show us but dont wana wast the money to be told i cant engineer it.

Calling regency/vehicle standards I have learnt is a complete waste of time. They are not interested in giving advice.

Your best bet is to contact Doug Potts? (I think it is, will need to double check) of whom can sort out the engineering and emissions testing.

I haven't called doug myself but I believe emissions testing is 2.5k per pop. So if the tuner doesn't do it right the first time your up for another 2.5k to pass the second time; and hope to all buggery it passes otherwise on it goes another 2.5k.

If your going to have it modified legally I would go the rb30 route as the rb25 has nothing on the rb30 when they are both modified *forged internals* and legal.

Do you have the number for Doug Potts iv herd a few guys rave on about him so il give him a call. Iv done a lot of research on the rb25/30 and it does shit over the rb25det just dont wana go all out on a engine that i cant have in the car also a bit worried about spending the money on engineer reports for plenum and power fc and being told i cant have.

      I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'

      D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.

      KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.

      Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.

      Fair enough, I am in no way a tire expert so I'm not familiar with all the terms and conditions. I'll definitely note down the AD09 to potentially try in the future. Rain is not too big of a concern for now as I will probably only drive in the rain when I have to. And considering I still lack experience driving the GTR I'd more than likely take it easy too. I have coilovers in the car but as I barely got to drive so far I never bothered to even check if they are adjustable haha. The suspension is almost entirely old and worn as well so I suppose when I eventually fix that in the future that would make a huge difference.
