Well he could chuck a W16 in if he wanted to, but hes asking about an SR.

Conversions are an expensive exercise and time consuming. I strongly believe that 1j is cheaper/stronger/makes more power then an SR, so before the guy jumps into it, i thought i would bring those points up so he can decide for himself.

But i guess being a cocky smartass and not putting forward anything useful is where its at. My bad.

hows about those figures

I reckon they should do drag racing with oil tankers. Quickest quarter nautical mile from 0 knots haha. Would be more entertaining than lobster racing.

where is a good place to get a 1j or 2j?

the pintara cross member works because the CA20 that comes in them uses the same mounts a CA/SR motor... one of my mate put a CA18 in and that was different... the standard CA20 box bolts up to a CA18 also... maybe that would be the path to go

otherwise the SR will be great but you need a SR box to and possibly a custom tailshaft

hope i can help

CA20 boxes are also f**king shit and will be blown up in no time. I know I ran one behind my CA18det bluey which was dead standard apart from exhaust and still shat a box

come on Josh... i just said it would bolt up.... i never mentioned that it would be strong!

I ran one behind a CA18 as well with similar luck... but who said this bloke would drive as hard as we would?

Just get the SR going mate...

And if you are as good with electronics as you say you are.... we should talk as I need some stuff sorted :)

why not lol nah mite go rb26 not sure, or maybe 25/30

There was a 2jz r33 for sale from 1 of the importers, forgot which 1....it looked sweet as.

I am aware of both of them thanks damo, anywhere else?

private sales (off forums) or even yahoo auctions japan. couple guys of the forums import stuff, including some businesses.

Just incase anyone was wondering out of interest I got this car going I picked up an sr20de with box loom and ecu. Bolted it onto a ca20 cross member and used standard gearbox mounts and standard driveshaft from pintara. Used sr20 power steering pump and connected the standard 31 lines to it. Car doesn't go too bad for what it is and is much better in fuel.

    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
