Haha considering the fact that a rb20e only has around 100kw, thats a 0-100 time of 10 seconds ish. (from calculation of the 147kw rb25de 0-100 8 seconds).

I'd love to see a rb20e try to do a 10 sec 100. Some poor bugger has one in aust. They should do a test.

There's a bunch of em kicking about, pre sevs imports. A few in HR31s as well.

In response to OP:

Are we counting Rotary N/A?

They're pretty quick but that's more about having a lightweight body than having bucketloads of power.

Hate to burst this bubble of worship guys, but NA rotories, still slow.

Even the panspeed car only had like 500HP

Worked 20B.

Dill with it.

*Cough* Not slow when bolted into an 800kg r100... *cough*

Yeah, but that's the point, you HAVE to bolt it into something that is sub 1000kg to make it go hard.

Don't get me wrong, I do appreciate my normally aspirated rotangs.

Just sayin'

Same theory as cortinas, average motor bolted into something light = fastish

NA skylines are the same as a decaf skim latte.

Why bother.

Because then u get to hang out with the cool kids in the coffee shop, same principle.

Yes a commo will smash ur Natro skyline, but with the skyline silvia 300zx soarer whatever it may be they're Natro versions are still "welcomed" to events such as down shift meet ups, club cruises and jamboree.

It's a conformist/wanting to belong to something thing

    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
