hmm - no major immediate plans for mine.

*Suspension ~ one day > happy with handling, it just sits too high

*FMIC ~ one day > stock one flows well enough for stock turbo anyway.

*Possibly upgrade clutch, like a twin plate or something, [would also lighten flywheel at same time].

*Couple of other 'little' things I will do very soon but they secret :)

ey andy, Ill stand there by the car if ya need me. I got a GREAT baseball bat ive been meaning to test out

hahahaa

but seriously, if theres any trouble, holla at me and youll hear me running from the other side of the building. (For ppl who havent actually met me, im kinda big:D:D:D:D)

Horus - HKS 2530's, spool up quick (approx. 3500rpm) and good for 1.4 bar. With other mods (powerfc, full exhaust, filters, adj. cam gears, ebc, injectors and fuel pump) should be good for around 310-330 rwkws.

Also providing you have a decent twin plate clutch to hold the power!!!

If I get a 180 or R32 probably will just go straight for the HKS 2530 or 2540 .. 2530 on an SR20DET sounds pretty fun.. that was the turbo i was going to chuck on my R33, but nah, cbf now -- too much money..

mmm... Funkey... you can take it off my hands.

but it wont come el cheapo.

only becasue it's got the t04e... extractors... ecu/loom..

All of which aren't cheap (extractors are 1-of-800 made)... but in the package you'll save.

remember it's making approx 190rwkw on the lowly 9psi :D

wat do you think it's worth? considering 250rwkw will be had with JUST BOOST. and nothing else :P

Future Mods: Weight reduction on the buggy and a 13B Turbo Conversion.....

Goal - 1:1 Power to weight (HP/KG)

Then we'll see who's quick jet!!!

Did a calculation and I reckon with 400HP, 400KG, a perfect launch, and traction = 8.1 @ 176 MPH!!!!!

SOme people think i'm a little cwazy?? I got no idea why??

Doc.

got my new project cars :D

should turn a few heads fitting an sr 20 to this just to be different and to make a wicked track weapon.

jet congrats on the car If I had the cash lying around I would have grabbed daves car in a heart beat. just learn to respeckt it as it bites :)

this is it b4 it dissapears into the work shop

nah mate not drugs common sense this is a very good and very popular swap

hyb11sm.jpg

some reasons for the swap

1 no need for a custom plenum.

2 power fc bolts straight in

3 there are heaps of parts for them.

4. it makes the weight distribution 50/50.

5 there are no high profile ones and i like to be different.

6 I found some one who is willing to do the conversion for a reasonable fee.

7 the motors are more torquey.

8 the gearbox just had 2k spent on it in a full rebuild

9 the motor only has 80 000 genuine klms10 when I need to upgrade things like pistons and injectors I will only require 4 not six

and development on the rb20 is finished in japan

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
    • Yeah, I guess its pretty easy to get to if this doesn't work. Just wait till next oil change and pull it out. I am going to have to do the oil pan gasket soon and thought I'd just replace it while I was there.  Thanks
    • All that matters is you're safe and you were able to type that post. Hopefully heaps of parts you can recover for the next shell.
