I think a rotary would be even harder for the die-hard Nissan enthusiasts to stomach than the Chev.

Chev is easier to fit too... but the 20B would be awesome. I contemplated this too, but in my 180 :P

Both are pretty much hated :D

I used to own a few rotaries, and now have a nissan and an LS1. I just can't make up my mind! ;)

I would love to have a rotary for a race car!! It's on the list to own one day :) or is that a bucket list :P

You sure thats a 20b in that r33?

Sounds more like an RB with no exhaust and big cams to me? :)

no I'm not sure... I'm at work so don't have the sound on... I just searched R33 + 20B as I remembered seeing a video like that... nice burnout nonetheless :D

:blink:

i thought you would like it john ! they are fantastic

please dont tell your time .... you probably went faster in the wet than me in the dry!! lol

actually would be really cool to see how fast you could punt one around oran !! i reckon high 1.15 with no mercy! which would be awsome !

Hehe we are going to organise for another time to have a drive in the dry. I will keep you posted. There computer upgrade gives it another 70kwatw :huh: 290+ standard and 360+ with the Haltech :blink:

see video of R33 GTSt with a 20B in it...

Also 350Z with 20B...

I would go V8 rather than rotary... swore to myself that if I destroyed the RB again it would be Nissan V8 time... with a big SC:)

I don't even need to click the first link to know that it's Pete's burgundy R33. It's a cammy RB and not a rotary - although it fooled a heap of people who watched the video.

***EDIT***

Farkin' LOL at the Youtube comments! Holy crap!

Haha speaking of engine conversions I was really considering at one stage to put an rb25 in the rx :thumbsup:

LOL...NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If that is your car in your post then keep the rotor in it. (oh and looks like a great FC by the way :thumbsup: )

RBs are big , heavy and lazy things, which work well in a Skyline...but. Hell i would say throw a V8 in the FC before an RB :)

I am holding out for R35 GTR V spec, just need sponsor or something or another minor miracle.

What about this car for track weapon? How about a 4wd carbon body, custom V8 with 2 x Hayabusa heads, dry sump, 420hp and only 500kg, awesome aero and very low height and centre fo gravity. Illegal for Superlap though.

Track Beast

they use chain drive from memory. :thumbsup: and it's a fairly light spaceframe, with super light body. and they use tiny very light diffs and I think inboard brakes too from memory.

    • your right the maps for Australia came out in 2017 but are 2010 maps. i got the updated maps SD card put it in and it was the same. Same maps in my Brothers Nissan Patrol. 2020 i think his car is
    • Yeahhhh, the costs have killed me. Spent more than the cost of an engine rebuild and it most mostly servicing and a tune lol.
    • I'm not 100% how the BMW racers do it, but I know from other brands like Merc, moving, and changing the coolers is one of the things. Like getting a transcooler out from infront of the radiator to out near a wheel arch. So some of the stuff you've got crammed in the middle front, spread it out and open up where you can in the bar to get more air in to the sides.
    • Small update for the day... Turns out the intercooler and engine coolant hose kits are anything but complete....I probably should have counted better but it only really covers about half the coolant hoses in the car, it really just covers the visible stuff and pretends everything else doesn't exist (turbo water feed and returns and also heat exchanger lines through the 2 pumps and cooler) .In any case, I'm happier to have half reliable hoses than none, but a bit of a disappointment. Anyway...finger click (and 5 hours).....hoses in place, lots of spring clamps replaced with screw clamps, and engine coolant is on the pressure tester for the night.   Incidentally, upsized header tank is an Inifiniti factory option....not sure I'll ever do prod car racing in this but at least it is legal.
