I used a grub screwed, machined and balanced, nitrated standard crankshaft (Nizpro spec??) .. should hold up with most, I was told that should be good for 800+HP.

really where did you see that?

We've already finished the worlds first genuine RB33 (ie actually slightly over 3300cc) and it was not quite as simple as we first thought it would be, we have twin 3037s and it will be shipped to Ireland for install in a R33 GTR shortly.

I can also vouch for stock RB30 cranks to 9000rpm 1000+hp, and stock RB30, pistons and rods to 8000rpm and over 500rwkw in a track car without problems, although I usually tell my customers 7200rpm, 1.5 bar 400rwkw.

Theres one been sitting in an engine here for 8 months. Still waiting for the rest of the car to be finished before it debuts.

Will be an interesting animal for sure.

Hi Rips, I've seen the excellent development work you guys have been doing over the years, but I don't think yours is the first this time :thumbsup: the crank I saw came out of a motor that had been running for a while. I'm not actually sure why it was apart I couldn't see anything wrong with it.

Anyway, I saw this one at Hills Motorsport, I'm sure Mark can provide details to anyone who is interested. I certainly am :)

My stroker crank is getting closer.

The drawing is finished .Final measurements are 93mm stroke - this will make 3317cc with a 1mm over bore. I will also make a 95mm stroke 3388 cc( but the block will require a little clearancing )

Custom rods will be needed also, these will be I beams and come in the kit as well as pistons.

The first crank should be here early next year.

Dont ask on pricing as the Aus dollar is totally influencing things at the moment.

RB25/26 cranks are next, also SR20 and CA18

As long as the cost is reasonable (considering there's no social proof to attest to reliability etc) you shouldnt have an issue moving them. Im keeping an eye on your website solely to find more info about that crank option - ive got a spare rb30 block here that (if the price was right) id be happy to put in my GTR and crank out some silly numbers with

I will be building a test engine with the 1st sample - and I will be leaning on it hard - as in very hard with a 50/50 toluene mix.

A Brian Crower 3.4L 2JZ stroker kit ( crank rods and pistons ) in todays market is around $8500, mine will be considerably less. But it still wont be cheap as this is a 4340 billet crank, with 4340 I beam rods and more than likely a custom CP piston to suit.

So dont expect anything less than 5k-6k plus.

mmmmmm i think this is a good excuse to delay a rb30 build lol

are mahle pistons really that much better then CP?

LOL makes me want to rush the turbo installation and wind it right up so I can break it sooner and push her to 3.4L.. if only my bank account had the same sentiments lol :(

      S1 Autech 260RS Wiring Diagrams

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
