No, Not true, Lt12s is newer than the Ltx12, only real difference is the lt12 doesnt have inbuilt ignitors where the ltx does, just means you will need to use the standard rb20 ignitor or an x6 box.

What have you modded to fit the cams? BTW they arent drop in.

i bought a worked engine and i have an a4 page of stuff done to it, not to keen on posting as i dont want to type it out, is there anything in particular that you want to know???.

i have spoken to the tuner again and he said an lt12s with x6 box is fine but i should buy coils as the stardard coils are not the best way of going about it, im not sure about that there seems to be a lot of people running standard coils

You need a new tuner.

yeah tell me about it i think he just wants me to give him more money, so what do you reckon use lt12s and x6 box to run my rb20 with rb26 cams, and not worry about the standard coils as they will be fine. or should i go in another direction???

Just use the standard ignitor, I am on an rb25 and its fine.

i see you are on the coast, go see Matty Spry at PITS or Gavin wood

cool, i can get an lt12s for cheap as with a plug n play loom, if i can use the standard igniter and coils this will be great, i am on the coast and can i grab this guys number. so the fact that i have different cams (rb26 ones) in my rb20 doesn't mean i have to get the crazy ignition set up.

Are you running solid lfters, because gtr cams dont work with rb20 hydraulic lifters.

    • How dare you sell your unreliable Skyline and buy a reliable, Toyota/Yamaha car with a strong gearbox, torsen LSD and Toyota reliability. At least you won't need to worry about oil pumps, big catch can, oil restrictors, blowing off power steering belts, sheering off 3rd gear, failing ABS relays/pumps, etc.
    • 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.
