Did you not say a RB25 hybrid? Or is that the type of turbo, a hybrid of a RB25 turbo, not the engine.

I am putting a 3076R on a stock RB25...but it will have 740cc injectors, and a kickass ECU. Just a matter of booking the car in, and handing over about $1.5k to have it installed and tuned :P

The difference in response between the 3071 and the 2871 would be less then 200rpm but will give you more headroom for future mods. Infact Powertune in NSW and Street Forced Performance in Vic have developed a 3071 kits for SR's that are as responsive as a 2871r if not more responsive. I'll find the thread;

Took some pics of the new toy yesterday .... pity it was raining and filthed it up before the photos (despite it being washed 2 hours earlier :P )

Fave photo

I was outside in the rain, rinsing my car off, so once the rain stopped i didn't have any dusty watermarks, the joys of living off a dirt road.

random "update" of my "progress". just copied and pasted from my ns thread cause im lazy.

i decided id stop being lazy and start fitting my oil cooler today.

i also decided id go with a relo instead of just using a sandwich plate. having trouble picking a spot to mount the relo though, so if anyone has any suggestions, that be great.

a view that is becoming all too common with this car...

new billet alloy earls relo block;

roughly where the core will sit;

and where the lines will be routed;

the mess of fittings off the permacool spin on adaptor;

(that bung in the straight fitting is a port for the temp gauge, blocked up til i get it...)

almost finished, need to mount the relo block, buy a filter, buy 1x 90 barb fitting, 1x 45 degree barb fitting, some straps of aluminium to mount the core, and itll be done.

so the kit now consists of a permacool spin on block adaptor, an earls billet relo block, an earls 19 row cooler, a whole bunch of random fittings, and 3 metres of flame proof line. bit more than i started with. lol.

and a random lol;

im totally bringing my gameboy out of retirement for pokemon!! WOOOT

lol I cranked out the N64 for Zelda the other day. Still got my SuperNes aswell including all the classics like super Mario world, donkey kong 1, 2, & 3, yoshis island, plus many more.

if you get modded xbox the old 1 anyways u can get any nes, super nes, ds and some n64 games on it.

works much better than using keyboard on pc ;)

and there are these things called emulators that prob work better than your webpage for it.

mario allstars ftw

    • Thanks for that, I'll check it all out. I can always do the brakes last anyway if its a problem.  The 16's are super cool, if they do fit I'll cruise around with them for a bit.  
    • Well, that's kinda the point. The calipers might interfere with the inside of the barrels 16" rims are only about 14" inside the barrels, which is ~350mm, and 334mm rotors only leave about 8mm outboard for the caliper before you get to 350, And.... that;s not gunna be enough. If the rims have a larger ID than that, you might sneak it in. I'd be putting a measuring stick inside the wheel and eyeballing the extra required for the caliper outboard of the rotor before committing to bolting it all on.
    • OK, so again it has been a bit of a break but it was around researching what had been done since I didn't have access to Neil's records and not everything is obvious without pulling stuff apart. Happily the guy who assembled the engine had kept reasonable records, so we now know the final spec is: Bottom end: Standard block and crank Ross 86.5mm forgies, 9:1 compression Spool forged rods Standard main bolts Oil pump Spool billet gears in standard housing Aeroflow extended and baffled sump Head Freshly rebuilt standard head with new 80lb valve springs Mild porting/port match Head oil feed restrictor VCT disabled Tighe 805C reground cams (255 duration, 8.93 lift)  Adjustable cam gears on inlet/exhaust Standard head bolts, gasket not confirmed but assumed MLS External 555cc Nismo injectors Z32 AFM Bosch 023 Intank fuel pump Garret 2871 (factory housings and manifold) Hypertune FFP plenum with standard throttle   Time to book in a trip to Unigroup
    • I forgot about my shiny new plates!
    • Well, apparently they do fit, however this wont be a problem if not because the car will be stationary while i do the suspension work. I was just going to use the 16's to roll the old girl around if I needed to. I just need to get the E90 back on the road first. Yes! I'm a believer! 🙌 So, I contacted them because the site kinda sucks and I was really confused about what I'd need. They put together a package for me and because I was spraying all the seat surfaces and not doing spot fixes I decided not to send them a headrest to colour match, I just used their colour on file (and it was spot on).  I got some heavy duty cleaner, 1L of colour, a small bottle of dye hardener and a small bottle of the dye top coat. I also got a spray gun as I needed a larger nozzle than the gun I had and it was only $40 extra. From memory the total was ~$450 ish. Its not cheap but the result is awesome. They did add repair bits and pieces to the quote originally and the cost came down significantly when I said I didn't need any repair products. I did it over a weekend. The only issues I had were my own; I forgot to mix the hardener into the dye two coats but I had enough dye for 2 more coats with the hardener. I also just used up all the dye because why not and i rushed the last coat which gave me some runs. Thankfully the runs are under the headrests. The gun pattern wasn't great, very round and would have been better if it was a line. It made it a little tricky to get consistent coverage and I think having done the extra coats probably helped conceal any coverage issues. I contacted them again a few months later so I could get our X5 done (who the f**k thought white leather was a good idea for a family car?!) and they said they had some training to do in Sydney and I could get a reduced rate on the leather fix in the X5 if I let them demo their product on our car. So I agreed. When I took Bec in the E39 to pick it up, I showed them the job I'd done in my car and they were all (students included) really impressed. Note that they said the runs I created could be fixed easily at the time with a brush or an air compressor gun. So, now with the two cars done I can absolutely recommend Colourlock.  I'll take pics of both interiors and create a new thread.
