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.

    • 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 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2  
    • Thank you so much for the help
    • Yes it is ATF. I quote @Duncan "it takes a good synthentic auto trans fluid like Castrol Transmax Z" It's not a diff. It's a transfer case. Totally different thing. Yes, fluid will come out the sender hole. No you do not really need to drain it. Just pull the old, quickly poke the new, clean up and top up. But realistically, you should probably take the opportunity to change it anyway.
