S14 With Neo Rb25 Drift Car.

[Simon-S14]

Rolls: yup.. that went out the window.. if those linkages werent there the thing would fit sweet as! but noooo. you can get internally shifted jericos but they are pricey.. about 6K for a internally shifted 5 speed road race one. (so about 8K in the car i guess)

and yeah i had a rb25 box in the s14 before it fits no worries.. i bashed the tunnel around the starter motor hump to make it easier but thats about it. and yes it looks like you'd have to chop the tunnel in a skyline also... not for a street car :S

whole conversion is turning out to be harder then i thought.. however thats due to no one else having done it before and making it up as i go,.

spacer being machined up, should have that tomorrow... box on and trans tunnel cut to clear everything :S

I've seen tractors with less agricultural gear selectors. But if it works and is reliable than looks is of no concern.

Coming along quickly!

Out of interest did you look into the rb30 to GM bell housings from the rod shop - or are they just a dellows item?

Renegate sequential shifter?

[Simon-S14]

haha yeah external shifters is so old school... Jerico make an internally shifted version in 5 speed but its an extra 2.5K over the price of a basic one.

i called castlemaine rod shop.. they couldnt guarantee that the bellhousing would be strong enough for over 500 rwhp and for motorsport.. their casting is thin walled.. i was a bit turned off from that i guess and went to dellow.

the shifter on there atm is a borrowed item until Garage 7 finish building and designing a sequential shifter for it. dont like the renegate ones they seem way overpriced for what is basically a glorified hurst shifter.

Simon this car is f**king amazing and wish I had the cash to build one myself

[Simon-S14]

the trans tunnel is all sorted!

[mungy]

love the new shifter...lol is that from the "derelikt" range. and i got all adjustible arms for the 33 you promised to drive

[Hanaldo]

Oh wow, amazing job dude. Looking at your previous post I thought the inside was going to be butchered, but that little stitch up job looks awesome! How much further over is the shifter, will that make it any harder to drive?

Haha, wish I could be at the event to see this in action, this has to be one of the most developed cars out there... Think it's time to open a workshop together !!! Your skill and my nothing would be awesome lol. But seriously.... Workshop....

[Simon-S14]

[bcozican]

You put an .82 housing on the rear for that or still .63 which is why it falls over a bit ?Good job man will turn a tyre and awesome usable rev range....

In the 1st vid. Was the turbo fluttering whilst spooling?? Or was it just the cameras mic struggling? Sounded odd!

[Simon-S14]

yeah think it was the air buffering around the camera
