That it does.

Gearing such as close ratio boxes and holingers n diff ratios make a huge difference in how the car comes onto power. Example CRDs JUN and powertunes r34 gtr. But like you say Ash. Some people don't understand.

Rb30's also love to rev if built right. Ask RIPS. he take a dirty 30 to 9-10k rpm without a fuss. It's just not needed in most cases because of the extra torque they make.

As for the to4z maybe it gets the job done. But today there are better options!

I love the idea of going through 5 gears getting out my driveway. ..

I have one of these kits in my R34 (not rb26, it's a gtt)

Note their kit which they market as being 25 or 26 compatible didn't come with pistons that suit the Neo head. I realise this thread is referring to the 26 but worth mentioning for anyone who uses the search feature in the future. I'm sure wherever you get it from can supply pistons to suit but I would definitely ask/confirm/double check/triple confirm before you order to be 700% sure to avoid drama.

Hmm well I'm in the process of deciding to go stroker. I've heard things about mixing up the components from a step 1 and step 2 hks 2.8l kit. Or I will just dump my car at race pace and tell them exactly what is recommended based on my application/intended use. Interesting to see how 2.9 functions from a 2.8.

I'm sure Chris will sort it out one way or another. Last time I spoke to him, he was doing his own 2.8 kit which I believe is in his car right now. As far as the 2.9 goes, these things need all the stroke they can get. Every little bit counts! An extra 1.3 mm is an extra 32.5% more stroke than going from a 2.6 to a "2.8" kit. Bring it on I say :D

Thanks guys , I think I will be getting this, Speaking of the powertunes R34 gtr , spoke to the guys there who speak highly of BC obviously as they sell it but that GTR is reliable uses B C stroker makes over 1000hp been doing it for 3 yrs been driven heaps even gets street driven and no issues what so ever.

I also spoke to a few other people who have used his stuff with good comments and no issue, read a few posts of ppl who speak highly of them, I will use a new N1 block as a base, strengthen it everyway possible, do lots of headwork, should be good. Will do some more homework offcourse It is not going to be a rushed thing.

Cheers.

The bc stuff I do hear good things about.

Dont quote me but im sure boost logic are using at least one of their cranks in a 7 sec supra. Will have to find the build again to be 100% sure.

But plenty of guys using them in 2jz's stateside at more than 1000hp with no failures that I have heard of.

You either need a shorter driveway or think about parking half way down....

Just thinking about it gets me all excited to do this a lot faster! I guess you've lived and breathed 2.8's far too long ey Piggy? Chris knows his stuff, I'll let him do the hard work lol

Haha. Well the difference in drive ability and twist between a 2.6 and 2.8 is night and day, lets not even go to a 3.0 or bigger. It baffles me that anyone would consider using a standard stroke length crank when you have it all apart. I realise its more exxy but you get a much better result.

If I didn't have my stroker crank and block, it'll be bigger without hesitation.

Yea I get what you mean, if my engine was apart I would have my engine bored and longer stroke length. The results are just more crisp and can do so much more. Want to chuck some -5's on there with 25-26psi on E85 and aim for high 400's

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
