Gerg_R31's N/a Rb26/30De

[Gerg_R31]

Yeah but they aren't too familiar with rb's, they seem more rotary based.

Is hard to find someone who knows rb's n/a cars and haltechs with out the "that will do" or "that's close enough" attitude

aim is to have it ready well before the all jap day at silverwater on Nov 13 and there is stuff i need to do outside the tune

[fatz]

tune on my car seems fine

he tunes heaps of na shit there as well

[Gerg_R31]

thought you went to castle hill exhaust

(oh and im trying to find someone close to sea level as possible as you know my car doesnt have an altitude adjuster )

next week ill start calling up the tuners that i have in mind, will keep everyone updated

[fatz]

castle hill was good but to far away now go to hitman in penrith

he is the halteck dude

[magic1]

very cool build, any video of the noise this makes?

[Gerg_R31]

Got a call from Mick first thing this morning, and there may have been a bit of misinterpretation on my part,

mick said that he said; i got to have all these cars ready for a race meet which all these and these i sponsor have to be ready for the long weekend

so my bad in my part there

but yeah he also hadn't realised it had been there for so long and said im right to have the shits but he has promised that nothing else will leave his shop until my car is done

So yeah we'll see how it goes from here

Isnt it funny how a bit of a f**k you open to the general public gets things done.

Still though bit of a poor excuse saying "oh I didnt realize it was dumped in my front yard for so long"

[fatz]

poor form considering you dropped it off before my 3 month holiday and i am almost back

[Gerg_R31]

I doubt he reads the forums, and ive also had heaps of time to build joels rb26/30de and make it all 100% like brand new & perfect. But i guess having a whinge gets things moving

though still need to fit the oil cooler, new oil and filter and plugs (after its run in), fit and adjust the new coilovers, fit the catch can, give it a decent wash and go for a pie run and drive to new castle all before 13th of November

Update;

Linkages done, car started, being run in on the dyno. Cams and ignition timing should be fully tunned late today early tomorrow.... Excited again

oh and car got to 220hp /164kw before the ignition model shit itself

[jamie curran]

nice man, glad this project is back on.

watching.

[Gerg_R31]

225hp/ 167.8kw at 8200rpm

[zebra]

nice effort

[Gerg_R31]

Surprised the single spinner 3.89 diff and non syncro series 1 r31 gearbox lasted that much. fingers crossed they can last till after xmas shopping is done

[zebra]

whats the curve like?

needs more 4.44:1 diff ratios

[fatz]

skidz?

[tweety bird]

video?

skidz?

video of teh skidz?

[Gerg_R31]

Will up load pics, dyno sheet pic and a couple vids tonight (no driving videos, as i was driving)

But f**k me its fun to drive.... light goes green, slight hesitation then at speed limit before i get to change to 2nd, and i haven't tried full throttle yet, more trying to keep it on the speed limit for now

No skids i like my licence, (if there were i wouldn't post it )

and my phone decibel app says its at 98 decibel at idle... will need to get that checked out
