Hope this is in the right place, but let me first tell you about me, I actually live in the US but most of you guys on here seem pretty smart and I have a few questions. First though my car is 1990 240sx (s13), has 215,xxx on it and runs real strong few moths ago converted to 5 speed and now i want more power. I want to run an rb25 mostly because its cheaper than the rb26 and will eventually get an rb30 bottom end. swap parts are simple engine mount/driveshaft kit, intercooler, freddy intake, and want to get external oil pump. Thats where you guys come in, I want to run a similar setup to this guy, sorry its upside down

now it looks so simple, i know that the pump is moroso 22596, and is just drilling and tapping the oil pump and taking out the internals? I work at a machine shop and can get mounts made easily and know how about the belting crap because i have dealt with it in school, i know the oil pressure will be a little different and later he says he blew it up cause of too much oil in the head, so i figured an rear head drain and it should be good, have about 2k for this, would like to know what you guys think.

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Waders360 · Posted

      I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way

      This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.

      Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.

      To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all

      300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
