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:

    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
    • Lock me in mate, although I'm not sure if I'll be heading up from Goulburn or down from Sydney, either way, return will be back to Goulburn 
    • Sounds good, we will aim to be there! @The Bogan I'll give you a shout if you are heading up to campbelltown for the meet too.
    • Before I get to the test day, just to finish off the android head unit. This is a demo from car start up....the standard/host system takes a few seconds to boot (same as all v37) but Android comes up quickly. In this vid I'm using the delivered launcher but have set the default to Agami since which is easier to navigate when if use primarily 5 apps. You can see the host system still takes over when required eg putting it in reverse, and you can switch between Android and not by holding the back button 3 sec. It is pretty responsive (fast) but you can see I had to press harder than expected a couple of times.  I still have the phone connected to the stock system, and that also seamlessly takes over Android music playing. v37-android-demo.mp4 The bigger reason that I put this in though is so that I can use Ecutek directly on the head unit. That gives me a dash with logging (up to 20MB only), high and low value warnings on any parameter etc etc. I've run a USB cable from the Ecutek OBD dongle to a USB input on the unit, easy. v37-ecutek-demo.mp4   The unit did freeze on the launcher the other day, I think Agami was trying to verify the license when it didn't have a data connection...will monitor and report back if there are any other problems but so far I'm very happy with the upgrade.
    • Nah that is just crappy GPS mapping, I did have a small excursion (cold tyres, damp track, surprise!), will post up that when I get a chance.
