Nice one! I doubt I'm going to bother with the cage and getting it andra spec but I'll cross that bridge once I get there. Once I get kicked out of WSID I'll do the odd trip to Heathcote and then probably find something else such as Wakie to occupy my time :)

Funny you should mention that... I've got an R33 GTR Vspec box in it at the moment and It's not real happy with me after the last trip. It's currently at CRD getting the box rebuilt with an OS Giken 5 speed gearset. I've got to say though, the box that was in it did handle a fair hiding and I was suprised it held up so well!

Nah I will not be putting nos in it, that's probably the last thing I'd do.

I'll most probably b looking at sum suspension or diffs to help get off the line better and I'd look at e85 to get more power out of the current set up.

But these things will happen over the next year or so

Yeah i understand that.

Just thought it might be a good idea while ive got it out to get it stripped and checked out before it copes a beating

Also the fella thats goin to do it for me is goin to do a mod to stop the 4th syncro from wearing out which seems to be a pretty common problem

    • Will have a look at that. I cant see any leaks 
    • Put another overflow bottle (ie, a 1.25 coke bottle or similar) under the overflow hose and see if it is being pushed out there or if it is disappearing into the engine.
    • Staring on a stand is no issue. You just have to wire everything up, give it fuel and cross your fingers that the stand is robust enough. Arranging the inlet plumbing is often the hardest part, without any surrounding structure to hand some of it from. No need for coolant if you only want to run it for <1 minute. As to the gearbox - I think the little Aisin box is a bit stronger than the other small Nissan boxes that went behind SRs, but I wouldn't be too keen to test its limits with the torque of a boosted 25. I don't know if you can retain the box and the tailshaft. The box won't connect to the RB without an adapter of some sort, which is either a plate that will push the engine forward (which is not good for fitting it into the bay's available space) or push the box back, which messes with the box position and tailshaft length - OR - cut and shut work on the bellhousing, which is a long way from "least modification". I'd be buying a new 370Z 6 speed or similar, doing what has to be done to that to make it fit RB (ie, cut and shut bellhousing) and the requisite tailshaft custom/mods.
    • Hi Everyone I am from West Pennant Hills in NSW. Been too busy until recently to attend to my RB25DET Series 2 engine until recently. I am planning to stick it into the S15 shell at this stage, unless a nice SR20DET turns up... For now, i am going to try and get the RB25 running and working well then decide what gearbox to use. My preference is to retain the SR20DET  6 speed gearbox and tail shaft to retain as much and least modifications as i can avoid. I am an old guy and won't be doing any heavy drifting so i don't need a bullet proof gearbox Does anyone have experience with starting the RB on a stand? I got everything setup as much as I can with the info i can find... endless searching and videos on Youtube I would be great to get some pointers Cheers Songo
    • Hey all, Recently have had my s1 r33 gtr serviced and noticed my coolant reservoir was topped up to the max line. Took the car out for 1 yesterday and noticed today the reservoir is completely empty.  Any ideas? Radiator is full
