I dont think they are open anymore, or atleast not doing that well... I havent seen them down BWCP in about 18months either.

hey josh ttr are great company :closedeyes::spam: (joke)

remember when a certian person was telling u and your dad that it was fine to run a td06 on a rb25 with stock injectors and i said other wise and what happened to the motor after it ran down willowbank ?????

Can help with the wiring. I have done a few now. Excellent conversion, I even did one for my fathers R32 at the start of this year. He loves it!

I have personally done 2 now and have done them over a weekend with a hand from my bro-in-laws.

Cheers

I've heard nothing but good comments about this man, however make sure he leaves the brother-in-law at home :closedeyes:

i have done a few of these conversions now.

if your after a harness, give me the RB20 engine loom, and the RB25 loom and $350 and you'll have yourself a complete wiring loom that plugs stright on. if you have an R33 microtech, is it plug and play? If so, then as i stated above will be the way to go.

As for the motor, it will bolt stright onto your crossmember, however, as stated earlier in this thread, you will need a modified gearbox crossmember.

I can also do your tailshaft, as mentioned by showbag on the 1st page, i do tailshafts for a living, and trust me, you dont want to do any dodgey stuff in this department. I can build you a complete 1 piece tailshaft, brand new that will cop 350rwkw for $450. I use billet slip yoke and high tensile steel tube.

If you need intercooler pipe modification i can also help in this department, as with the exhaust, but the RB20 exhaust will bolt strauight up if both your RB20 and RB25 have standard turbos.

PM me if you need anymore info, i'll be glad to help.

      Impossible to remove the housing while turbo is installed on the manifold on the engine. So I have to do it anyways. I plugged it so there will not be any debris in there. Will vacuum aswell

      gtr hood match gt/gtt front fenders?

      By JC71 · Posted

      would a r34 gtr hood line up with gt/gtt stock fenders? after latch, front bumper and hinges are swapped for gtr ones? or would the fenders be too low or high in relation to the hood surface? ( I believe seeing somewhere that gtr front fenders use some type of riser for the sides, but do not know how that relates to stock gt/gtt fenders.)

      You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
