Money isn't an issue????? looks more like brains arn't in the posters head, you could buy something pretty decent for the amount you would waste trying to make your stupid idea work. Like I dunno, a decent conditioned tuned R34 GTR easy

Make sure you run a twin screw setup as they offer boost on demand unlike the centrifugal types like Vortech etc... here are two vortech charged cars and look at the difference in boost curves...

Vortech and the centrifugal types are like your worst LAG nightmare and are only useful for dyno comps....

Here is your average boost curve vs a vortech;

Here is Vortech vs twin screw (kenne bell type)

and the comparo of the two setups running the same boost.

drove past his house on friday.. car is still in the exact same spot.. surprised that it hasn't been nicked yet.. and had a vs commy wagon in the driveway lol..

my guess is some douche walking past took a photo for a laugh.. or the OP is really stupid for taking a photo straight out the front of his house which was easily identifyable

hi im wanting to put a gen4 or shall i say a ls2 6litre with a 6 speed and heavey dutey racing clutch .and bolt on a

yada yada...

I say let him do it, let's even assist him with a smile, in the great way us SkLiNer's often do....... :dry:

and let Darwin's Theory do the rest. :)

Here I'll reconstruct his post into something meaningful (note that this is impossible as the intentions of the OP are just plain screwed from the start) with an Oxford spin:

Hello there chaps.

I am conducting some basic background research on the feasibility of converting my R33 Skyline from the well engineered factory setup, to running a Holden Commodore drivetrain - specifically a "Gen 4" (AKA LS2) engine and Tremec T56 gearbox. Ideally, I would like to include an heavy duty clutch in conjunction with this setup. I have also considered the advantages and disadvantages of both twin turbocharger and supercharger setups, should the LS2 be insufficient to meet my power needs - I have reached no certain conclusion on the matter though. Of concern to me is how this setup will affect the handling characteristics of my otherwise well-performing vehicle. I must also ask while I am here, has this been done before? Has anyone accomplished such a feat? Graced my fine province with a beast of burden akin to this? It is quite perplexing to say the least, and frankly, I am running light on patience. The attention of others I do crave, I would like to be remembered as he who succeeded in doing what no other has...remembered as he, who, the very thought of would cause the human mind to implode in a fit of self destruction. I would consider an RB30 and RB26 hybrid conversion, however my affinity for the V8 engine configuration combined with my passionate and everlasting love for the R33 Skyline has prevented me from taking this path. If I can't say it enough, I want this to be something that common man can see and forever have the image of - burned on his retina - for all eternity. I am therefore seeking your collective opinion and invaluable advice concerning my project. Should you be unable to fulfill my requirements, perhaps you could lead me to the path that will take me there. Your correspondence would be a blessing.

Yours sincerely,

Troll.

Man i pissed myself laughing hahaha

      This is the GTR fuel pump. Yellow shows 12V, orange shows earth. The ECU provides the earth to activate the fuel pump relay. The ECU side of teh relay will pull low when the ECU activates. This is the RB20 fuel pump. Almost the same, but a little simpler. You can see I indicated (above) where the 12V line goes down to the RB20 diagram on the overall diagram, whch shows both RB26 and RB20. This is where I show it coming in on the RB20 diagram below. You can see that the dropping resistor is handled differently. When the fuel pump control is not providing earth to the pump, the pump earths through the dropping resistor and thus runs at lower voltage (some is wasted over the resistor) and runs slower. I showed that "not 12V and not quite earth" portion of the wiring in a paler orange. The rest of the wiring that I did not colour on that little section below the pump would be orange when the fuel pump coontroller is providing earth. This drop is handled inside the fuel pump controller in the GTR. Regardless, you can see where 12V is supposed to be, where earth is supposed to be. The key on prime is via the ECU providing the pump for only a few seconds the switching off. You should be able to see that happen.

      Yeah so when you turn key to IGN the fuel pump should run for a few seconds. If you find the fuel pump relay (and have a multimeter, and a second person) to can check the relay inputs.  One trigger pin should be either fully earthed  The other trigger pin should get 12v from the ECU for say 3 seconds when you turn key to IGN, and at all times that key is at START (note, I said this from memory, it may be the other way around, ie one pin always has IGN 12v and the earth has continuity to earth when you turn the key) One Pin should have a good battery voltage The last pin goes to the fuel pump + Also note that if the power to the relay is good, and the relay is working, it is worth checking the pump has a good earth too. There is a computer in the standard system that increases the earth resistance to slow down the pump when not required, pretty old school and it may have failed

      All this talk about fuel and fancy ECUs, meanwhile my poor old R32 has neither.... When the ignition is turned on, should there be power running o the fuel pump constantly or just for the few seconds it usually takes to prime the pump? About to go have another look at it, have watched some YouTube vids on how to use a  multimeter and looked at some wiring diagrams but really have NFI what I'm looking for because electricity is invisible

      Yuh....but weren't all the supertourers, except maybe the Audis, FWD? I don't recall any of the others being AWD.

      They ran them in Oz Super Tourers too https://www.supertouringregister.com/register/vehicle/212/ (I'm so old I remember racing with Matthew Fox) They ran them in Oz Super Tourers too https://www.supertouringregister.com/register/vehicle/212/ (I'm so old I remember racing with Matthew Fox)
