OK finially some progress and some new pictures, Have sorted out the wiring. and all the plumbing on the 26. god there is alot you dont need!

Aircon compressor removed, rb26 power steering pump removed and the rb20 bolted into place. (conveniently fits using the standard mounting location of the air conditioning compressor)

Front pipe has turned up, still waiting on AFM's and hks hard intake kit. But the thing really slowing me down is the VRS kit, will seriously hurt somebody if this shit doesnt turn up soon! As soon as it gets here the motor will be redy to have clutch bolted on and motor dropped into place.

All the engine covers have been nicely painted aswell. Here is some pics, also one of my new workbench :)

(actually just reallised i didnt take one of the actuall work bench so i will get onto that in the next few days )

Whole front of motor is finished

Cam seals

N1 oil pump

Water pump

crank seal

new idler bearing

new tensioner and spring

Gates timing belt

hmm think thats the whole front? Was starting to get super angry as i realised i got sent 3 crank seals instead of one crank and two cam seals... turns out cam seals are same part number as crank seals in 32 gtr's haha :)

Still waiting on vrs, and waiting for my standard manifolds and dumps to get painted in that black heat proof stuff. Should tidy it up a bit.

Then only thing left is rear main seal and bolt clutch/flywheel up and drop it in

Wiring is allready finished. Then just mod front pipe to fit my existing 3" cat back system and two cooler pipes and bam back on the road :)

Also found out i got a nice surprise turbo wise with my front cut, .60 - .64 turbos, There either N1 or Nismo Group A turbos. Pretty happy bout that

Car is finially finished and running, honestly cant stress enough if you want something done right do it your f**king self. only outsourced one part of the build and it put me behind 3 weeks and cost me more money

but 10psi for a week or so, a second oil and filter change. some dyno time to check afrs after that and happy days.

And some new semi slicks tomorrow morning! happy days, words cannot express how it felt to drive it out of the garage for the first time in 4 months!

    • Yeah good luck out there! Will be good to see a mighty GTST going harder than the GTRs
    • i will be there 😁
    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
