Tell me if this is wrong thinking Chris...

But isn't an RB26 in a "GTS" a bunch of bogus?

It ceases to be a GTS without the RB25.

Could I perhaps stick a 20B with a air shifted Powerglide and still call it a GTS?

I mean it kinda devalues the good work people have done getting into the 10/11's with an RB25.

Nah i havent but ur right, they must be doing something right, the secret is getting the power to the ground and with a time of 10.8 it seems these people have done it. Many 300+ hp skylines on the road but little have a reasonable time to show as the motor gets the attention and not the part that matters the most.....tyres.

There are many ECR33s out there with the power potential to run 10s (possibly with a little bit more fiddling)... So the RB25 is capable of producing the power necessary to run that time.

So if the RB25 is capable of running a 10, why is it "cheating" to use an RB26? It might be easier, but it's not doing anything the RB25 can't do... It's just doing it more easily and probably without all the fuss of building such a tough RB25.

Also, what about all the ECR33s running RB30 conversions? Are they no longer "GTS-ts" in your mind? What are they? VL Commodores?

I gotta agree with tony on this one,

Scenario..

Two 11second passes in two different R32's one with rb26 and the other with standard rb20 the latter I think deserves more Kudos as it is clearly a greater achievement., And i think thats the point tony was trying to make.

But what do i know i've never driven a car down those 400 meters myself. :P

Whether or not it's a greater achievement is very subjective.

I couldn't give a rats ass whether you used a 1.6L carby or a 5.7L Supercharged LS1 with Nitrous... A 10 second pass is a 10 second pass. Who cares what you used to do it. That's completely upto the car's owner, and a very personal choice... I don't think one deserves greater accolade than the other, as it's still an excellent result.

Hehe I'm surprised by the posts here a bit. My point of the thread was:

a) a RWD skyline is in the 10's that has seemingly come from no-where

B) it uses small bolt on turbos

Why can't a GT-R pull a time like that here? Even the Mines R34 with it's uber gear got a similar time. Has anyone seen this car? Is it totally stripped or running A/C and a big stereo while going down the 1/4?

Just curious as to the setup on this car, pretty good number in an RWD that is probably very streetable.

Hi guys, I think your are missing the point, a Skyline pushed the Supra from N1 RWD, I'm cheering!

PS; If I meet the guy, I'll by him a beer (or 2).

I think you're right... I've completely missed any references to a Supra before your post.

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off.

      I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell.

      Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂
