HOLY CRAP 1000HP RB26dett..........

How much it cost to build. I wanted a 23-30 hybrid and was promised only 550rwhp. And it was going to cost me $16K.

Did it cost you a mortgage on the house to get that power, as I have been led to believe?

Not directly on point but when I asked Mark at Mazuroski at Mazworx in the US about whether to use Eagle rods or Manley Turbo Tuff rods in my SR his email response was:

"Anything over 400hp we like to use the Manley's".

My take is that cheaper aftermarket rods will hold a decent hp.....the question tho' is for how long.

honestly, if you can afford to build and maintain a genuine 1000hp RB engine, you can afford carrillo's. :(

This is truth, when you compare price say, 700 to 1700, in the great scheme its nothing. Not to mention if it puts a hole in the side of your shiny new N1 block.

Is there a recipe for a 1000hp gtr engine thats reliable these days? Or is each engine still a an engine that is developed over time, possibly blown up a couple of times till the tune is just right?

Any variation in fuel quality could cause a blow up so such engines would have to be being run on race only fuels, so that 1000hp figure would be an off the street, on the dyno/track figure right?

the 1000hp mark would be with race fuel, still 750rwhp would be good 4 street use or maybe highway :P

Also has anyone here use crower rods before and how do rate?

i went with argo rods, they are very very solid and well designed... have seen them runnning nearly 900rwhp so they are a good thing

i think pauter are great rods but are probably a little of the skinny/light side for 1000hp

as others have stated carillo have a very good name

    • I thought Australia got rid of the "drag dodgy fuel up to 91 RON with ethanol", which is why all E10 advertise as "up to 94 RON" ? Anyway I put E10/91 in the missus' Mazda because she empties the tank weekly, when all my cars get 98RON. tl;dr - turbo - 98 RON, if you can't afford that, sell it and get a commuter car (or tune your car for 91, which no one does).
    • Yeah i found that alot of parts can be wrong or "very" hard to get the real right one. I already bought some brakes years ago on me "old" GT calipers and they were wrong too 😄  I told them too. Even send them pictures...but they said "EBC catalogue has them on my car... So i dont know what their answer will be. I call monday them and let them know that they are really not on my car. If they were they would be already on a car...
    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
