** grossly overdue update **

well it's been over a year and things are happening slowly, but at least it's happening!!!

Over the last year the car has had a full cams cage fitted, seam welding done apart from that it's been collecting dust :blink:

As for the engine - work on this has recently commenced. I've got James from NISSPEED here in SA doing the build - he's just successfully finished a RB26/30 build making over 1000 RWHP + nitrous! I'm hoping to have my motor completed by about July.

Things I have purchased and dropped off so far:

RB26 head

TOMEI cam gears

6boost manifold

tial ext gate

gt3076r

NISMO oil pump (not N1)

NISMO thermostat

NISMO engine mounts (to be used when doing a test fit of oversized sump on dummy block)

CP pistons 9.0:1 CR

Spool Rods

ARP bolts

ACL bearings

external head drain -> sump

oil restrictors for the head

MLS 1.2mm metal head gasket

ATI 1000 HP harmonic balancer

xtreme drift clutch

1000cc injectors

3 L surge tank with 2x bracket for 044 external pumps

RB30 block has been stripped, acid dipped - it is ready to be bored/honed

RB30 crank has been blueprinted/machined/cracktested - ready for crank collar

next stage of the motor is to send off all the main bottom end bits to be balanced. I think main items that I still need to get are Main and head studs, water pump, custom tensioner kit (NISSPEED), splitfires, 2 x external fuel pumps - so still a fair way off lol.

As for the car - that is going out in april to go get the front guards tubbed and then off for paint again!

I will try keep this updated :ninja:

Thanks

      This sounds like someone who would have owned an R33 in their past... It's okay, I'm 100% picking up what you're putting down Mark.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Just back on what was raised about jacking off the the tow/tie down point on the front of cars. I've used it plenty. I've also watched it on a car where you could see it move the front end of the car. It was like the front end/whole car being tweaked and twisted a bit. I will say, I struggle to find good jacking points on MOST cars. The ones that have good points, I then normally struggle to find a jack tall enough to make the car change height!   One of my go to points for either the jack, or the axel stands though, is either a suspension pickup point, OR a subframe to chassis major bolting point. I actually think its the subframe on my R33 that has a bit of a bend in it, from being jacked in the middle too. However, it could have been one of my many other cars I've had over the years! Or it could also be the from me jacking it up, and the fact the top of the front radiator support isn't there, so it can allow the front of the car to move and bend etc.

      My apologies. I forgot we were talking about weird beard M series stuff. Had been talking elsewhere with someone about an R33 with similar subject and got confused.

      Nope, I don't like the look of ND RF, or any ND really, I don't like their faces or arses, why, because of their "modern" lines, the NC, whilst "modernish" has a more rounded shape that I like Well, that's how my overly judgemental eyes see it anyway

      Should be more than fine, especially the overall fuel pressure would never exceed 3.5bar (assuming that thing never gets more than 0.5bar of boost in stock form). According to the chart, it's 11amps.
