Damn thats a bummer, you know Id fully help you search for TK parts if you went on the path to get it back to original...

the world is full of huge power skylines, but not many original TKs with all performance mods done...

you wont be able to call it a TK anymore, pull that decal and badge off...

I see what you're doing.

LOL so do I.. Its got me thinking. But I can't leave that ugly gay cross over pipe, small turbo and intercooler. Just can't.

I just want it to put the wrath of god into me and anyone in the car when it comes on boost. That feeling of your eyeballs being sucked to the back of your head while being pinned.

I want it to make me scream fast n furious when I change gears 8 times lol..

Im glad we got that sorted.

Now please continue with your story of upgrades to your series 1 r33 (with mish mash of left over parts from what could of been a unique r33 but isnt since its missing most of, and will be missing a heap more in the future of, its 'rare' and 'unique' parts, which could of been called a tommy kaira but is now sadly just a wanka-thon to make it sound so much better than every other r33 series 1) that a heap of people on these forums have already been there and done that to their own...

I am honestly still keen to hear what you want to do and reading it happen and seeing the awesome pics of the process, and Im sure it will be nicely done and and done your way, and there is nothing wrong with that...

but please come down to earth, your doing what alot of people have done before its not rare, unique or different, its another build process, and yes it may be great even the one done perhaps the best, but I reckon alot of people have started just like your starting now, with a very similar car.

I reckon do a build thread too, with heaps of pictures, I love seeing pictures of decent builds, and I love shiny parts and loud obnxious cars that scare when driven...

btw most people say the series 2 looks better, just sayin...

Found this that for some reason didnt upload with the others.

The build itself is not rare unique and different, but the car itself is. Thats what im saying. If it wasnt the car that it is, I wouldnt have a skyline or have grown to like them. The car is what it is whichever way you look at it, and thats a TK, reguardless of the larger bolt on parts.

As I said when I have more parts, more pics and theres a fair amount of progress happening with the car I'll start a build thread.

Exactly, no reason to keep matching numbers when every other original bit is gone too.

and back to my previous statement, its a series 1 with a bodykit, an ugly one at that.

u can continue build process of your series 1 now...

75coupe, just as I started to think you were somewhat decent, I won’t insult your intelligence by suggesting that you really believe what you just said but thank you, I'm challenged by your "unique" point of view. You have an open mind and a mouth to match.

As for Rolls, don't let your mind wander, its far too little to be let out on its own. Thinking really isn't your strong point, is it? Why don't you freeze your teeth and give your tongue a sleigh ride.

Theres only so many times you can go around in circles and go over the same thing.

Now that your both finished having delusions of competence, feel free to not comment in this thread and let me enjoy and build my ugly series 1.

So may I have the pleasure of you both absence?

Thanks.

Correct me if im wrong, but with a stroker, because the rod/piston's dont actually have to travel as far, then there is less force/momentum being created.. Therefore you can actually rev higher.

pistons travel further in a stroker, hence longer stroke.. from bottom to top dead centre

Are the rods not shorter in a stroker engine?

Nevermind me, just did some reading up on the subject. Funny, I never really put much thought towards how crank throw affects displacement. Oops :D

OP, hows the car coming along? Did you settle on turbo choice yet?

    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
