There's a reason everyone swaps out the engine...

Not wanting to kill your hopes and dreams, but all you can really do with N/As is change headers/exhaust/intake/ignition/earthing/capacity/displacements/timing/gearbox/weight.

Do what you want though. Turbo or N/A, what's it for? Drift?

i just thought having non-u.s. thoughts could have helped especially when it came to the rb motor, considering you guys can have skylines and we don't(it's rare but some do), pretty jealous about that, just wish i could have an r32 and call it a day. thanks for the responses, guess i just have to ponder on it.

Can't you import one?

Which was Americas way of saying fuck you for Pearl Harbour :whistling:

Not surprising he is asking for info here, we've done more Skylines and Silvias than America has. SR20 conversion is the best thing for your vehicle OP. It's a factory engine, been done plenty of times and there are plenty of parts available.

if you liked it (n/a) you should have put an LS1 on it ;)

(i'm serious for N/A powaaah)

Good point. Lots of alloy chev engines in the USA. The alloy V8s are also lighter than the RB too.

Or go the VQ35DE engine or if really keen go the VQ37.

Yep go a LS1/2. Pretty sure you can get bolt in kits for them in the US (saw them ages ago). Given how cheap they are over there and are a lot lighter than a RB it would be the best choice for something NA and slightly different.

    • 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
