i know in some occasions they did have a factory stroker. which isnt like the obvious usual stroker kit.... the n1, 400r.... the import papers said its capacity is 2.8... and there is deff a bigger cam than a stock rb26.... it is meant to have slightly bigger turbos, bigger cams, etc.....

R33 GTR N1

Still a RB26DETT but the water cooling channels in the block are enhanced to increase flow.

The block and internal components are strengthened.

The pistons have 1.2 mm (0.047 in) top rings, but otherwise as standard.

The connecting rods are standard.

The crankshaft is standard but balanced / refined.

The specifications of the camshafts were improved for power.

Upgraded oil and water pump, to improve the cooling and lubrication of the engine.

Larger and stronger twin turbo's.

Nismo 400R

Used a RB26DETT but is modified and stroked to a 2.8lt.

From memory, it is built at the Nismo Omori Factory.

Reinforced cylinder block / cylinder head / metal head gasket / pistons with cooling channels.

Forged crank shaft / connecting rods.

N1 turbines with reinforced actuator.

High flow air intake.

Upgraded exhaust system.

The Nismo 400R is the only car that Nismo built from Factory with a 2.8lt.

Having said that, Nissan / Nismo never made a RB28DETT from factory as they are all RB26DETT's but Stroked to a 2.8lt, in my opinion.

The rest were 2.6lt, but if you have the import papers to let us have a look then I would be interested to see.

I have not been able to find my import papers in this pile of car shit i have had to get done and sorted.... now... this is the interesting part...

My engine number is Rb260519684... now.... seeing i bought this car from a private seller where my uncle imported it... it has a Nissan International Motorsports V-spec Sticker on it. stick was on the car when it was imported and has not been added sticker is aged very much.. now... seeing its a old car i thought id do the smart thing and get her timing belt done, and all the fluids so pretty much now the engine bay is as best i can get her without spending the coin...

when i took her to Custom Exhaust Specialists at meadowbrook qld(i know one of the fellas down there)... they told me when i picked it up that they had to ring Valvoline and order in over $400 dollars worth of oils just for my Gear Box, Diffs, and transfer cases.... Valvoline said to the owner of CES that this running gear is totally different to any other GTR they have seen in a long time...

So clearly that the block states the standard 05u stamp but something is most certainly there..

Where would i go about looking up the history of my car in japan?

Thanks

You got any pics of the car we can see?

We could probably help identify some items.

Get your VIN / Chassis Number and enter it into this thread ---> http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/VI...ed-t128496.html

Your VIN number is the Vehicle Identification Number from the Japanese factory.

It contains your model number followed by the build number of you vehicle.

Examples:

- BNR32001000

- ECR33003928

- BNR34000897

When the car comes to australia the VIN number is prefixed with 6U9000 and you're Australian VIN number becomes 6U9000BNR32001000 (for example).

When posting VIN's all we need is the part of the VIN number after 6U9000.

The VIN number is found on the factory blue compliance plate.

So get the VIN and post it in the thread and a SAU member with the Nissan FAST Program will / can decode it for you.

It will tell you the exact Model / Make / Year / Colour / Series / RWD / 4WD / Man / Auto.

That will be the birth of the car, other then that, if you have the service history books, receipts of what is done on the car or get your mechanic, who is familiar with GTR's, is the only other way to tell you what your car has.

Well yes that's it.

In regards to your 1st post about having a factory stroker kit...

Now you know it is a RB26 not a RB28 :blink:

You have a (built in March) '95 model V-Spec as you have stated in the 1st post, with a RB26.

By looking at the paint code it is Midnight Purple and all the self explanatory info :P

What do you mean by "How do we Decode this?"

As in you want to decode it yourself?

    • Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D    
    • Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D  
    • Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.
    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
