Hi my name Is Toby. I have a Yellow VH Commodore Wagon. You may have seen it at Wakefield park or Eastern Creek. I have slowly turned it into a ripper of a track car that leaves Porsches and Ferrari's in its wake. I have changed just about every thing on the outside of the motor. The crazy thing is that the Rb20 makes 386rwkw and has never had the rocker covers off. Nothing has been changed from the rocker covers to the sump. (ie Stock rod,pistons and cams). I have set the shiftlight to light up at 8300rpm. By the time i change gear it just brushes 8600rpm. The turbo is a bitza. 8 litre diesel compressor, RB20 ballbearing core and VG30 turbine housing. It was put together by Precision Turbo and runs 30lbs all the time. They high flowed the whole lot. They really know their stuff at Precision Turbo.

About two weeks ago I rolled my Commodore at turn five at Wakefield Park. I was in third gear with the tail out and I miss judged the apex op the corner. My front left wheel went over and off the ripple strip onto the dirt. As the wheel went back on to the ripple strip it caught me and flipped me over. I estimate that I was doing about 110km/h when I roled. I rolled 3 and a half times coming to rest on the drivers side. My roll cage, Harnesses and helmet saved my life!

Any way while the car is off the road I wanted to build a good engine for the car. I want to build a RB24. I have a RB26 head, RB25 block and my RB20 engine. I wanted to use the RB20 crank in the RB25 block with the RB26 head. Does any body know if this has been done before and if so what do I need to know. Are their any major hurdles or is it a simple bolt together afair?

Any how it is time to start pulling the old girl apart. I am building another wagon. This one will be even tougher.

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in?

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.

      I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
