Hard luck rep

Seems there a fair few of us around that like finding the limits of the standard internals of the rb25.....One of you should write a book "What happens when you have too much power and not enough strength"

After your rebuilds, do any of you find it annoying to drive around a 250+rwKw skyline everyday???

Thanks guys , but be warned "This recipe can leave a BAD aftertaste!"

for desert......Arais forgies , rb26rods with a sprinkle of ARP rod bolts :(

Sounds good, dont forget the full balance and O rings. Got the same rig in mine. Bearings I put in were ACL race SR20 Big End and RB30 mains. $140 for the set. Do seals as well. Front and rear all are same as RB30 so 3 front oil pump seals and 1 rear main

I'd say every 'serious' 25t owner gets a taste of this.....some of us twice for a total of 6 dead pistons. :)

Thanks Fane , but the only gas on board that day was the gas eeking outta my butt!

Hoe Train... any exuse for forgies :D

Packy , I'll let you know if living with 250rwkw gets boring ...or if I get arrestted! (more likely)

Skylinegeoff .... All new bearings , seals & belts even "O" ringing block...just cause I Can :burnout:

my right spins when im turning right (in a drift or something), im thinking my diff is ****ed :P

straight-line and full left and a bit to the right it locks up 2 wheels great but as soon as i start turning a bit more to the right during a burnout (on private roads) it open wheelers :( thats a ****ed diff right?

Get a cylinder of industrial oxygen, add an injector on full pulse with a throttle position sensor to switch it all on at full throttle.

Crude but effective. Took a 1.8l Laser Lynx from 10 sec 0-100 to 7 sec flat on stock intake and exhaust, but damn did it burn some plugs out. I'd hate to see the piston tops :(

Geoff your a phsyco fker!! :( i like that

teach me more!! :P

Apparently so....

Thread Hijack!!!!

then put a 30mm sway bar on the rear (custom from whiteline) and watch as every connected component destroys itself, subframe, coilover mounting points, until you have to weld nice solid brackets in place to compensate for the stresses on track...even the handbrake light locked on with the chassis flex.

Oh and then fabricate a custom 2.5 inch straight through exhaust, no cat, no mufflers and a 80mm pod filter through poly drain custom intake then listen to the music :D:D:D

rep...sounds like your build will be nice. PFC too?

R33 Impul ,well, since you STOLE the car I was trying to buy from Paul @ Autoworks a while back now , I'm Not gonna tell ya!!

JK ,tho we were bidding on the same car :D

ALLFAST converters in Perth , talk to Simon , sounds like he knows his stuff! or wait til mine is done and you can take it for a drive :D

Shit sorry bout stealing your car Dude :P

But it would be great if you could take me for a drive when yours is done.

Sorry to go a bit of topic but I have heard that in Jappa's they can fit a 4 speed o/d auto box from a patrol in skylines, have you heard bout this?

I was thinkin bout looking into putting as tip tronic from a R34 in but where to start?...... :spcow:

    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
    • Well the articals keep saying a Q50s (Skyline in Japan) with a new Manual gearbox. I like the talk about the new looks with the round tail lights. I hope they bring back the retro look like they did with the Z

    • Wanna rewrite all of that in, say, 2 or 3 separate sentences, so that we can read it?
