Made up my mine the FD is booked in at the end of September (unless the project he is working on now takes longer) and I'm putting in the rb26, yes gonna cost abit but I can't wait and want something different, the 26 is almost all done from its rebuild only waiting one the covers getting painted, and the custom made sump should be here next week, gonna be a long but fun build and can't wait!!

Looks sweet mate, hope yours turns out just as good. It's gonna be a mission to get it done, and I'm guessing you can't register it right? Will still be an awesome car to own and will sound that much better than a rotor when the 'gate cracks :-)

Looking forward to updates, good luck :-)

Awesome pics thanks mate :D makes me get sooo keen for mine!! Sorry about late reply been over at NZ for a week, and yep ive been talking to the engineers and they said it should be fine to register as they mad te rb26 up until 2002, and he said they also class the rotor to have 1.3l each rotor?!? Never Hurd that but yeah so he sai it should be fine it's gonna be my every day driver or I won't do it haha and when we start building I'll be posting a shit load of pics and info

in regards to engine capacity rotors are doubled compared to piston motors so in capacity terms a 13B is 2.6Ltrs.

and i cant wait to see this build start, i have a mate doing a 2JZ in his FD, its off getting a 4 link rear end atm. guna be pretty mental! ive also done a Rb26 conversion into my S15, love it!

    • They are, a good friend of mine bought one to replace his blow factory turbo, running a Toshi Tune reflash. Just use their supplied water/oil lines and you're good to go. At the time, they were like $900 delivered.
    • This is an option for 100% bolt on, the GCG high flow -  https://gcg.com.au/turbo-charger-upgrade-skyline-gtst-2iu-xtrgts-s1.html Also, I'm pretty sure hypergear does a high flow that is 100% bolt on, it just doesn't make as much power as their bigger high flows.  Even if you get a hypergear turbo that requires you to chance the intake piping, it is a really simple modification. It can be as simple as a piece of silicon hose and you pop a filter on the end. It doesn't have to be some crazy pie cut titanium work of art intake pipe.  If you have the ability to swap the turbo yourself, you would be able to sort the intake piping out. 
    • Just as a thought, if it's in neutral, thats your drive line disconnect, not the clutch. Clutch slip at the dyno with pedal fully out, is actually adding a second disconnect. So it's not a clutch issue if you're in neutral. Just a bit of friction dragging the output around while in the air.
    • The HG high flow is excellent, and costs about the $$ you're talking about. But it, and probably every other highflow, uses a diffeent core than the original turo, and the original Hitatchi core is quite long. So, I think it is inevitable that there is likely no such thing as a highflow that just "bolts on" with no other effort required. And the same is likely true for HG's outright replacement "bolt on" turbos (the ATR things). And the same is likely true for anything similar from elsewhere. I have no idea if the cheap Chinese/Taiwanese complete turbos from eBay/Temu/etc are as bolt on as they claim. I mean, they claim the bolt onto the NAs as well as the turbos, and we know that can't be "bolt on". But it wouldn't matter because I'm not buying a $169 4 psi turbo for anything other than a paddock basher.
    • Bummer...yeah i "need" something to "ease" up the work and for my driving it would be enough.    Iam counting the tune "without" turbo. I do not mean "cheap" like something from Temu around 200 USD, "Cheap" is something around 1000 USD?
