how much you looking at spending?

I just purchased one around month and 1/2 ago.

be prepared to spend a bit, and have cashed stored away for any problems you may have.

you will be looking at paying between $11K and $30K for one

its worth it though as in stock form they blow away pretty much anything

paid $12.5K for mine which is good for what i got, but it did have a few dints etc which ill need to get fixed, the sump is bashed up (suspect from when engine was imported) suspension is a little tired ie i am replaceing all bushes in the rear + a few control arms. just replacing the water pump and timing belt on it as we speak.

Im not saying the guy i bought it off is dodgy its what you get with a car of that age that hasn't had huge $$$ spent on it.

what i am trying to say is check it out thoroughly, i really couldn't check mine out as it was in another state, but i would still have bought it anyway its a good car.

There is heaps of magazines with RB S13s in them typical cost for conversions range from about $6k-$12K, thats pretty much stock conversions with RB20/25 to RB26s

have you checked nissansilvia.com for any think there is a few on there inc a $30K+ RB25DETT S13 which is immac

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
