ah k cheers.

I have asked CRD for an e-manage install and tune but they did not recommend it for my car...apparently coilpacks are known the blow because of the e-manage blue, so they did not want to take on the job, or risk it - even with the coilpack resistor mod

im not sure exactly where Croyden Racing Developments are, but they have done a lot of RB engines in the past

i would try find somewhere/some place that knows RB engines, so have a look around the site

check out some of the racing guys sigs and ask them where they would recommend taking the car, like Duncan, DirtGarage, Snowman etc etc

Silverwater Rd.

Drive slowly, its very easy to miss them..

They are awseome.. but you pay for it out of the ass..

lol gnna try DRC in greenacre too.

will give CRD a go after wakefield on the 21st.

im gnna learn how to install new brake pads next week:d woot....well trial and error.

thanks for all the help guys.

yeah - heard that aswell

who is DirtGarages engine builder??? or do they do it themselves?

pretty sure its them..

PM. them.. their on their forums..

Saw their silver 32 track GTR.. :whistling: stunning shit..

If i didnt do all the work myself and had the money, it would be Advan or DirtGarage

OH!.. Try advan!.. Its onl silverwater too.. drive slow again.. very easy to miss..

Wow Eug!!! this went so far off topic sorry man, just wanted some opinions and i got a full blown argument going over Fi vs N/a...gah, my bad.

If you want me to end this thread to put it simply, i went and got a qoute for a LS1 V8 twin turbo set up, best of both worlds...cubic inches...forced induction...i can still play around with the engine as if it was an N/a engine before the twins...i can leave it until im off p's...the only thing i have to really wait for is the news on weather i can fit it in the engine bay, if i get the go ahead, thats what im doing. :/ If the engine bay has ot be modified then obviously theres the problem of Vic Roads meddling and EPA'ing the vehicle and stating that there has been 'structural damage' therefore my car will never be roadworthy, other than that, fingers crossed!

I do appreciate everyone that stuck on the ball and helped me out, especially since Eug pretty much wrapped this story up with me quite a while ago when the thread started.

Either way FI or NA the majority of us are Nissan owners with the same passions for our vehicles, don't loose sight of that and fight within the groups, cause i think we have alot more to offer than that.

Although for me now its the morals of changing over to a GM engine, I, don't think i can look at my skyline and go thats a skyline if i do it....and well, i love my skylines, it may ruin the experience of owning one, or it could open up a whole new door to tunning in my eyes...i just don;t know yet, but either way, my goals are to own a 34 GTR before i start a family, and thats a must on my to do list, so either way if i compromise on this one for the experience than i have patience to wait for my GT-R. I think it smore of an aproval im waiting for form other members to push me in th eright direction really. :wub:

That would be a near undrivable car on the streets.

Your looking at 400+ kw of pure torque then emense power.

Its simply a coffin on wheels.

As a pure track car/occasional weekend car, absolutely. But as a daily driver your looking at a stupendus fuel bill, a ridiculous clutch, constant oversteer a silly tight diff, constant replace of semi slicks..

BUT THE NOISE!!!! ohhhhhh *drool*

Honestly.. stick to a GTR, LS1+TT R34 would be a ballistic track car.. but your shooting yourself in the foot as a daily driver.

thats my 2c

not really

in fact its really driveable on the street

if its the Gen-TT kits that he's looking at they only pump about 5-6psi into an internally stock LS1 just to make it a bit 'happier'

its as driveable and pleasurable as a normal LS1, and boost doesnt hit hard as it relatively low

if you drive any car normally the fuel bill wont be crazy, and the clutch will only really have to be a exedy HD or equivalent, and tyres, well that depends on ur right foot

ps this is all from what ive read, not what ive driven or been in :D

pps - i say if thats what you want, then go for it

^^^^ shane, dont go to DRC for tune...

take it to unigroup or Powertune..

im going to get mine done at powertune..

rb25de vct with stage 1 tomei poncams & adj cam gears with a emanage blue ecu with both injector & ignition harness..

    • Ahh...should have been clearer ~ there's 2 ... SMJ = super multi junction (connector)...   ...this is connector 6 & 25 in above image -- body harness to engine loom (6) & body harness to main loom (25) Headlights go to front via connector 6 ; fuel gauge goes to tank sender via connector 25  ...like I say this is R33 diagrams, but at a pinch R34 won't be too far different. *IF* the two ground faults are related, this can be the only place where both wires converge (as one runs to the back, the other to the front)... ....thing is, you probably need to establish if the faults are related (unless you examine that area and find obvious chaffing on the looms there to body ground)....*IF* the fuel gauge is still broken (full needle deflection), I'd be headed for the boot, remove fuel sender wire, key on and measure the voltage there ~ it should be roughly 10volts. If that's ok, check sender to ground resistance...if this is a dead short to ground (and there's fuel in it), then sender has failed or something funky has happened to wiring in the tank. edit: ahh...rereading the thread, this is R32....above fuel sender test still valid tho'
    • I just changed the timing belt on my RB25DET NEO and wanted to get some opinions. I’ve been super cautious, did a lot of research, and took my time. I’ve driven the car, and it runs fine. After warming it up, I revved it to 8000 RPM a few times—no issues, everything held up.   After the drive, I heard a noise that I think is either the clutch or possibly a tight accessory belt. It’s not constant, just comes and goes.   I took the timing cover off to double-check everything:   Belt is on properly, Tensioner is tight, Did the 90-degree twist test—belt isn’t too tight or too loose.     What still worries me is that I noticed the belt seems to sit a little toward the front edge of the gears, especially on the idler pulley. It even looks like it’s slightly coming off the edge there. Is that normal?   My old belt (5 years old, ~3,000 miles) also showed a bit of wear on that same edge, so maybe it’s just how it sits? I’m probably overthinking this, but since it’s my first time doing this on a NEO and the engine is forged, I really don’t want to mess anything up.   Also, I’m thinking of swapping to a clear front timing cover with the glass window. Would you recommend NITO or HPI? HPI looks reputable and their covers have 2.5mm thickness, but not sure if there’s a real difference between the two.   Any advice or reassurance would be much appreciated!
    • 40 grit sounds about right, to start. You make some decent cuts/damage in the coating with that, then rapdily scale up to maybe 80 and 120 for the bulk of the actual removal, then fine it off to 180 or 240 perhaps. No need to go any finer than that, and maybe no need to go even as fine as that. Wrap it on a big block and have at it. At least on the hub face.
    • Do the GKTech rear lower control arm mount relocation, and either alloy subframe inserts or very stiff subframe bushes. Traction is going to be at a premium!
    • Hello,   My name if Frederick, i'm 30 years old and I live in Belgium, Europe! I used to have a Nissan 370z daily but since I got a company car I turned that into my seattime driftcar. About 3 years ago I also wanted something older with more feel, so I got an R32 GTST with an rb26 engine. I am now getting the rb built to have around 800hp and it's close to being finished. I'm very excited for how it will drive and how driveable it will be! Regards, Fred!
