Yeah, that were good turbos, but we changed them for GT3576 analog, i'll post about it below, we have dynoes in St. Petersburg,, but i've never dynoed my car.

Cheers

After one of my 2860s stuffed I made my mind to install single turbo, friend of mine adviced me to try 3576 chinese replica, we brought it, and chinese made downpipe, installed it all, and made Y-type intake.

as we didnt have appropriate ECU we used old unit with mine's chip, AF was a little bit rich. but it was ok.

P.S Interesting red car to the right, what is this ?)

Now might be a good time to get a proper ECU and put it on a dyno to see how it really goes.

It also might be a bit safer once tuned.

Hi, new turbo on it's way to me, ETA is 20 days, so too early to talk about dynoruns.

I have Nistune ECU lyng on the shelf and waiting.

Is Nistune good ECU ? May be I should look for another thing ?

Hi SAU again, i'd been absent for a while - new job devoured my time completely and still doing that, now i understand that this season is lost for me, to the end of september-first decade of october car will be jailed in the garadge, because road conditions will be slightly hard for GTR

now todo list for a winter (Part 1) :

- completely disassemble the car, engine, drivetrain, saloon out

- body overhaul, rust extermination, everything too rusty will be cut and replaced

Here is a question, what is the best technolodgy to get rid of rust, consecution of repaint, materials, paints, primers, what you do, wnen you repainting your baby ?

- oversized oilpump

what is good, Tomei, Grex,HKS or else ?

- replace my old shattered driveshaft

is aluminium driveshaft good idea ?

As always i hope on you knowlege and kindness.

Cheers, Dim.

Hey mate. For rust I think a lot of the hot rodders use POR15 but if you jump on the forums they use anything from fishoil to mineral engine oil. Depends on if you want professional finish or just practical. Good thing about fishoil is that it's thin enough to penetrate the seams and dries thick to create a barrier. If your roads a salted then there is heaps of info on US and UK motoring sites.

Oil pump choice is up to you but more important is the oil control mods that need to be made for the rebuild relevant to the pump you install. Heaps of info on the forum.

Drive shaft...just get a stock one or a few if you are prone to breaking them.

Good luck

There are better options out there but the Nistune will be fine.

Keep us posted mate, loving the winter pics.

Cheers ! Our roads salted as hell, besides we have 96-98% humidity during winter,spring and autumn, this winter salt have deposited on the wires, shortcut them and quarter of city find out itself without electricity.

Yes, i want the best professional painting i can do.

Can you give me a clue about oil control mods ?

Thanks for answering mate.

Ha ha oil control and rb engines!!

There is so much discussion on this topic. Best to speak directly to the gurus about this. From what I have read it depends on your application, things to consider are what oil pump you are using, then oil gallery restrictors, sump baffles, catch can setup. But seeing that oil flow and control is so important especially when you start revving them past 7k, I would get my advice from someone who has done their own r&d and have proven setup. Its not something I would be doing without a proven formula. Maybe give an engine builder a call to discuss you application.

    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
