yeah i did a bit more reading on the gt rs 240/260 is quite common on stock internals, and added benifit of straight bolt on. I reckon to do the internals with that kit, then bolt on a gtrs, and play with that and pay it off and look at investing after that.

yeah your right there, i think it would be more appropriate if i aim at the strong and safe 280 mark. i should be able to get that off a gtrs as well, and use the stock planum, would considure cut and plug for a forward facing planum cut some piping out to increase response.hmmmm so many options.

have already got

new

**oil pump,

**new water pump,

**upgraded clutch

whats the difference between main and head studs

what are you reffering to with regard to these pieces

**new bearings,

**a solid lifter conversion

Just get an aftermarket forward facing plenum, it would be almost as cheap as the cut and shut, and 10000 times better, maybe even more :D

Mine works awesome thankyou very much!!!

Plus, an aftermarket computer is needed for either anyways, I havnt seen that posted on here yet.?

have a microtech lt12, so its capable of covering that, one of the staff members on our open wheelers team hates them and is trying to convince me to get a motec, and i might be able to organise a motec with him, he tunes some of the toyota's that do the nurburgring ring usesing the motec, so yeah thats looking like an option while im in canberra.

hmmmmm

If you are fitting an N1 RB26 oil pump you need to get the crank machined and a larger oil pump drive fitted (crank collar) as the standard oil pump drive on an RB25 is ~1/2 the length of the R33/34 RB26 ones. the easiest way to do that is just take it out to pro engines in qbn and get them to do it.

pro engines has the reputation, and I know of a few guys that have had work done there and are happy with it, I'd say spend yor $$$ where you can get the right job done.

yeah the more i have asked around and people have some really good opnions of them so thats good to know.

Their phone number doesn't seem to work, anyone have another one?

Joe's Mobile Number (skyline Performance) is 0412369176

he's a great guy, and looks after his customers, and dose great prices on rebuilds. he will be rebuilding mine in about a month or so.

    • Your other option is to buy a spray can of hi-fill and prime it with some pinholes. See if the primer makes them disappear. If it does, then you can leave it with pinholes of that size and they will go away when the painter takes over.
    • Ah ok. I seem to be mixing it like everyone else does so not sure what's happening. Will experiment with it more.
    • Depends on what you mean by OK. First up, was this done cold or hot? Are they reasonably consistent? Yes, they are reasonably consistent. Could be better. But unless it has had a build at some point, it is a ~30 year old engine and you'd expect some variation. Some of the difference could also be in user technique Is it good compression? Well....not numerically, no. New they were >160 psi. The one at 140 would be fine, in that context. If they were all ~140, you'd be reasonably happy. But the one that is @120 is twice as far down from the original numbers as the one @ 140. But.. (again)... technique can play a part in the absolute magnitude of these numbers, and the quality/state of repair/accuracy of the pressure gauge is not known. In the context of the above, the compression tester that was used last on my car is regularly compared to a known good pressure gauge. Not calibrated, exactly, but compared to a reference instrument that is not used for any other purpose, so cops no abuse. So we can trust the measurements off that tester. But another tester in the same workshop wasn't being compared against the standard and was reading a good 30ish psi lower. When you're reading 100 psu but the engine is really doing 130, you can make bad decisions.
    • More likely from tiny bubbles in the filler/putty. Maybe be less aggressive when mixing it. Perhaps invest in a vacuum chamber to pull the air bubbles out?** **I don't know if this is a thing for body filler. I see hardcore epoxy makers degassing their mixed resin on the regular.
    • IIRC, the speedo on these is fed from the sensor in/on the snout of the diff.
