hahaha OI !!! you cant do that !!!!

tosh she cant do that....can she ????? :D

A 2JZ engine?  that sounds familiar.... what car does that engine usually sit in?!

hmmm.... taking a camera?  i don't think i'll make it out there tonight ;)  at least the weathers holding up! :D

Edit:  SUPRA ENGINE?????  Is that right? Or am i thinking down the wrong path again?!?! why are you doing an engine conversion like that?!?!

We took a video camera down and shot a couple of fantastic launches. One against a low 11second BMW, beating it up to quarter track were his $400,000 dollars of machinery over took..lol go the GTS4.

The 2JZ is a 3ltr and also has VCT (variable cam timing). Can run 700hp with relatively low lag. It's measurements are 86mmx86mm(bore,stroke)..identical to the much revered and super-expensive OS Giken 3ltr GTR engine. Steel shim head gaskets are also standard on the 2JZ. I have a friend(I8A4RE) in Adelaide making 420rwkw from a internally stock engine(3years now).

LINK ME UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ;) I wanna see these vids! :rofl: thanks! ;)

And i thought they all had vct? i know the rb25 does! or wait... thats the equivalent of vtec and vvtli right?! sounds like a strong engine!!! 420 is alot of power!! with internals as well! shiiieeettt!!!! hehehe... he needs to make a trip to sydney! ;)

Yes the rb25 has VCT but the Rb26 doesn't. I think Nissan thought if they were on to a good thing to stick to it. Would have been nice to see the VCT come with the 33's as the RB25's did. Toyota over took on the technology side, but, the GTR cult was already set in concret.

Last night i spotted a dark coloured (probably black) r33. I saw it in the in the Megamart thing in Penrith at the Mulgoa Rd lights about to turn right towards the M4.

It had a 400r front bar, fmic, white 5 spoke rims, i think it had side skirts but i couldnt really see, it was very quiet - might have had the stock exhaust. Plates - ALZ81Y

hehehe... if they were onto a good thing, wouldn't they have kept the vct?!!?  so the gtsts have them, and the gtrs don't?  weird!!!  why change like that? and if toyota took over, have nissan taken back!?!?!? :D

I guess the RB26 in the 32GTR was so successful they stuck with it. The VCT in the R33 GTST would have been an unknown. Nissan played it safe and stuck with a proven performer, rightly and smartley so but in hindsight VCT on a RB26 would havce been nice. Toyota's engine may be more advanced but doesn't have the revyness of the RB26 and max power is made at 5600rpm. It was designed to capture the American V8 market. fitting a 1JZ head enables a hybrid 1.5JZ which is popular in japan and revs nicely to 9000rpm. The 2JZ head needs alitle porting or head swap to be perfect. The RB26 is nice just the way it is...so in essense comes down to personal preference.

So in answer to your question Nissan didn't need to take back, they had the market by the goolies after it's unbelivable record of wins at bathurst with the 32.

Kebab! SKY32R last night on Pacific Highway Lindfield and also again today @ 3:15pm in Chatswood turning off Pac Highway onto Fullers Rd

did you drive into him for a bit of fun tosh?

Or is it only the Datsun that you smash up :P

spotted WLD33t coming down Pennant Hills Rd - damn he was in a hurry...pulled up next 2 me @ the traffic light....talk about Mr Attitude!!! omg!

also spotted the oldest ugliest line i've ever seen turning into jasmine rd @ normanhurst...ADJ45P i think?

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
