The 3.4 should be very interesting, did you stick with 86.5mm bore and what style/shape of rod did you chose?

I presume you've made it so its a drop in kit for a stock block?

Rob

Edited by R.I.P.S NZ
The pistons are 20 thou over so ( 86.5 ), they will also be available in 40 ( at some point ).

The rods are a custom H Beam.

Drop in kit for stock block is the aim :-)

Cool, what is the actual cc rating with the 86.5mm bore?

Rob

pffft. whatervaa......... just anticipating someone thats prepared to spend 6k on a rotating assembly might want oil squirters. not me but im not everyone.

just have a japlish disclaimer, oil of the squirter instalation faliure...

I have never had a RB26 in the 240z, its always been a RB30, stock block, stock crank, RIPS wet sump etc and anyone who says a stock 30 crank won't rev hard or is limited to 7500 etc is talking rubbish

9500-10,000 rpm during burnout

Rob

everytime i see this 'cocaine' car on the strip i get goose bumps - sounds better than a moaning hottie :blink:

to get a comp ratio here is 1 formula i work with

bore x stroke (bore =86.5mm stroke =95mm)

86.5 x 85.5 / 4 =1870.5625

1870.5625 x 3.142 x 95 = 558344.2006

558344.2006 / 1000 = 558.3442

litres

558.3442 x 6 =3350.0652 (the cubic centremetres of the block)

3350.0652 / 1000 = 3.3500

Deck height

i wont be running one but the formular is the same as the bore x stroke formular just replace the stroke with the deck height measurement

Head Gasket

I HAVE NOT REMEMBERED A MEASURED HEAD GASKET THIS IS A ROUGH GUESS

similar 2 the bore x stroke just replace the stroke with the squashed thickness of head gasket and measure the bore of the gasket, or could always CC it with a burette

i.e

87 x 87 / 4 =1892.25

1892.25 x 3.142 x 0.9=5350.9045

5350.9045 / 1000 =5.3509

Head CC

mines 62cc's atm

Piston dish/dome

if i get the kit id run a 12cc dome

add deck height, head gasket, head cc's, piston dish cc's (minues if dome)

0 + 5.3509 + 62 - 12= 55.3509

add the bore x stroke with the above

55.3509 + 558.3442 = 613.6951

devide answer with the above

613.6951 / 55.3509 = 11.08

11.08:1 is the compression ratio id be running

congratulations rob!

and u have this car for sale!? why sell such a beast

I want to get into something lighter, its about 200kg over weight for the Pro Import class I run in but I don't want to strip it out to be a full race car, as it is, it still has glass windows (except doors), steel hatch etc, just needs headlights and wipers back in and its road legal again for someone else.

    • Update 3: Hi all It's been a while. Quite a lot of things happened in the meantime, among other things the car is (almost) back together and ready to be started again. Things that I fixed or changed: Full turbo removal, fitting back the OEM turbo oil hardlines. Had to do quite a bit of research and parts shopping to get every last piece that I need and make it work with the GT2860 turbos, but it does work and is not hard to do. Proves that the previous owner(s) just did not want to. While I was there I set the preload for the wastegates to 0,9bar to hopefully make it easier for the tuner to hit the 370hp I need for the legal inspections that will follow later on. Boost can always go up if necessary. Fitted a AN10 line from the catch can to the intake hose to make the catchcan and hopefully the cam covers a slight vacuum to have less restrictive oil returns from the head and not have mud build up as harshly in the lines and catch can. Removed the entire front interior just shy of the dashboard itself to clean up some of the absolutely horrendous wiring, (hopefully) fix the bumpy tacho and put in LED bulbs while I was there. Also put in bulbs where there was none before, like the airbag one. I also used that chance to remove the LED rpm gauge on the steering column, which was also wired in absolute horror show fashion. Moved the 4in1 Prosport gauge from sitting in front of the OEM oil pressure gauge to the center console vents, I used a 3D printed vent piece to hold that gauge there. The HKB steering wheel boss was likely on incorrectly as I sometimes noticed the indicator reset being uneven for left vs. right. In the meantime also installed an airbag delete resistor, as one should. Installed Cube Speed premium short shifter. Feels pretty nice, hope it'll work great too when I actually get to drive. Also put on a fancy Dragon Ball shift knob, cause why not. My buddy was kind enough to weld the rust hole in the back, it was basically rusted through in the lowermost corner of the passenger side trunk area where the wheel arch, trunk panel and rear quarter all meet. Obviously there is still a lot of crustiness in various areas but as long as it's not rusted out I'll just treat and isolate the corrosion and pretend it's not there. Also had to put down a new ground wire for the rear subframe as the original one was BARELY there. Probably a bit controversial depending on who you ask about this... but I ended up just covering the crack in the side of the engine block, the one above the oil feed, with JB Weld. I used a generous amount and roughed up the whole area with a Dremel before, so I hope this will hold the coolant where it should be for the foreseeable future. Did a cam cover gasket job as the half moons were a bit leaky, and there too one could see the people who worked on this car before me were absolute tools. The same half moons were probably used like 3 times without even cleaning the old RTV off. Dremeled out the inside of the flange where the turbine housing mates onto the exhaust manifolds so the diameter matches, as the OEM exhaust manifolds are even narrower than the turbine housings as we all know. Even if this doesn't do much, I had them out anyways, so can't harm. Ideally one would port-match both the turbo and the manifold to the gasket size but I really didn't feel up to disassembling the turbine housings. Wrapped turbo outlet dumps in heat wrap band. Will do the frontpipe again as well as now the oil leak which promted me to tear apart half the engine in the first place is hopefully fixed. Fitted an ATI super damper to get rid of the worn old harmonic balancer. Surely one of the easiest and most worth to do mods. But torquing that ARP bolt to spec was a bitch without being able to lock the flywheel. Did some minor adjustments in the ECU tables to change some things I didn't like, like the launch control that was ALWAYS active. Treated rusty spots and surface corrosion on places I could get to and on many spots under the car, not pretty or ideal but good enough for now. Removed the N1 rear spats and the carbon surrounding for the tailpipe to put them back on with new adhesive as the old one was lifting in many spots, not pretty. Took out the passenger rear lamp housing... what do you know. Amateur work screwed me again here as they were glued in hard and removing it took a lot of force, so I broke one of the housing bolts off. And when removing the adhesive from the chassis the paint came right off too. Thankfully all the damaged area won't be visible later, but whoever did the very limited bodywork on this car needs to have their limbs chopped off piece by piece.   Quite a list if I do say so myself, but a lot of time was spent just discovering new shit that is wrong with the car and finding a solution or parts to fix it. My last problem that I now have the headache of dealing with is that the exhaust studs on the turbo outlets are M10x1.25 threaded, but the previous owner already put on regular M10 nuts so the threads are... weird. I only found this out the hard way. So now I will just try if I can in any way fit the front pipe regardless, if not I'll have to redo the studs with the turbos installed. Lesson learned for the future: Redo ALL studs you put your hands on, especially if they are old and the previous owners were inept maniacs. Thanks for reading if you did, will update when the engine runs again. Hope nothing breaks or leaks and I can do a test drive.
    • No those pads are DBA too  but they have colors too. I look at the and imo the green "street" are the best.
    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
