My build is in progress :) bought a worked and complete head with all the goodies, dan from erd is going to build my engine, happy all round :)

Nicely done! That motor should be wicked after receiving the Dan touch.

No I didn't buy it, rather spend the $2200 getting the engine finished first. And after seeing the 6266 result on the 26 engine punch out 500 rwkw or what ever it was I'm deciding between different turbos again

it will be interesting to see how long that 26 of simons lasts with the 6266. He is chucking a lot of boost at it thats for sure. Should make a build thread!!!

What Ideas do you have for the engine at this stage. Do you know what injectors, Manifold, Plenum etc you are looking towards?

I have a front facing plenum with 90mm throttle body

Engine will be forged with cp pistons and spool rods, arp main, rod, head studs. Keeping vct inlet cam as dan made a good point about it. Head is built with new upgraded parts.

Fuel system will be 2 044 pumps from surge tank with nismo intank, 2000 Id injectors. Dash 8 fuel lines. I want the surge tank mounted under the car though for simplicity running flex fuel setup

6 boost t4 split pulse manifold, 4 inch turbo back exhaust

Will be pushing what ever turbo I get to maximum capacity with what the fuel can handle.

I will start a build thread soon.

How's your car going to Scott? ANy dramas?

    • Have you done your thinking backwards? 3 bar, 43.5 psi pressure drop being the presumed specification for an injector, means you need 3 bar upstream when they are firing into atmospheric pressure, and more upstream pressure than that when on boost (you add your boost to your rail pressure to maintain 3 bar across the injector) and you need..... less pressure upstream when you have vacuum in the manifold. So, presuming that you're idling at -10 psi, then you only need ~23 psi in the rail. I realise that I did not need to say all of that to you specifically Matt, once you'd realised your mistake. It's mostly there for complete clarity for others.
    • Have you reached out to the guys at Spool Imports? They are a Ross dealer, I can imagine they would have the rings just sitting on the shelf (I could be wrong).  
    • There's one for sale at Grand Auto Wreckers in Lonsdale (SA), for .... let's suggest the sum they're asking for will make you cry. You may have to embrace the idea of modifying the rear subframe to accept some other diff. You could probably find a way to wangle a shortnose into there, with a custom rear adapter and some sort of shenanigans to relocate the front mounts. This has probably already been done by others, so there might be some guidance available as to how easy/impossible it is, out there in the googles. But you possibly needn't restrict yourself to Nissan diffs if you're going to contemplate that. There are similarish Toyota diffs, possibly some Euro ones, possibly some Seppo ones.
    • The ball joint taper and arm taper have to match angle and diameter, but just doing the bushes is a much better option.....seems like the industry moved to "it is cheaper to replace the whole arm than take on the labour for changing this bushes", glad the aftermarket supports it
    • Gee she looks a bit rear heavy in that first pic! Sounds like a great project with the kids, but as I guess you know R series stuff is getting hard to find and pre that is pretty much impossible these days
