What specks did Kip build it to?

I asked for the biggest wheels that would sensibly fit, on a bush core. Very similar to the skyline rebuilds he does. It could be good for 250? Im not sure the box would take it though.

the box should be fine

,mine is all a-ok with 240rwkw

and I expect the auto to be as fine with another 25rwkw thrown on top

over time it may get a little loose, but nothing like changing a clutch every few yrs

perhaps in a decades time she may need a rebuild or strengthen up but that'd be about it.

service it regularly with good fluids along with shift kit and you'll be alright

nice turbo. bush bearing tho? went from bush highflow "2530-size" to ball bearing highflow "2835-size", massive difference in power delivery

Im not sure which box is in the 34's, are they the same as M35? Mine was slipping badly when I took it in, needed a full rebuild with extra clutches fitted and valve body. Kewish are not sure it can take that much at the wheels.

Main problem with the ball bearing cores seems to be the excess heat in such a confined spot under the engine. I am hoping to get good life out of this one.

scotty,

That looks great.

Do you know how big it is built, ie. Gt30 or Gt25. It looks a bit smaller than Danny's.

Can you say what the cost was?

Cheers

Andy

Its about gt30 size, not that ive seen one close up. It would be about 2 inch inlet I guess.

All we can go by is what those same wheels punch out on an rb, around 250awkw. Im sure with the weird standard exhaust manifold, there will be more restriction.

I guess we will see the outcome soon, I will have to get it back on the dyno straight away.

well, one is a 4 speed, the other is a 5 speed to begin with. i dont think jatco made the C34 box either, whereas they manufactured ours.

Pretty sure Nisaan have been using Jatco boxes in Skylines/Stageas since S3 R31's

whats similar is that they are auto stags with highflows....... its all the same basic principles / theories.

S1, S2, M35, all stags with the varied stagea features, auto boxes are auto boxes, and high flows are highflows. again a variety in types..... :)

    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
    • Neg, the top one is actually for the front. The sizes are 18x10.5 +18 and 18x11 +32.   I measured many times but I'm sure I'll have problems as this is the thread for problems.
    • Just one thing; tapping tapered threads is tricky. Taps are always tapered and you would generally run it as far as you can, but with a tapered thread you have to stop much sooner otherwise the wide part of the taper will run in too far and you will have to thread the sensor in too far too as well (possible that it will never make a good seal) BTW nice wide wheels, I guess the top one is for the back!
    • Welp, good to know. Will have to wait awhile until steady hands with drills and taps are available. In other news, these just arrived! I will weigh them for posterity. Edit: 11kg each (or 10.9/11.1 depending on what my scale decides over multiple tests, the 18x11 don't seem to weigh noticeably any more than 10.5)
