Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.

No. there was a guy here on SAU that built an N/A RB30 stroker full of expensive internals - it was uninspiring. Just wait for turbo.

negative.

26/30 was done into a 31, sounded cool, made about 200kw. a turbo 25 will walk all over it with just a couple small mods.

This was the same car I think. build was on forum?

Cant p platers get turbos based and power to weight now? If you must have a skyline get a 32 gtst with the 20 in it.

If it has to be na then get a silvia. Heaps better na than any skyline. Or wait until you're off your ps and then do it. Nobody ever wants to hear that but it has its merits. Skylines will still be around in 2 years

Nah, buy something with a 13b Bridgeport, much more fun :)

So just looking at what your talking about and it does sound like a bad idea. Also getting prepared for a turbo when your off your ps might not even happen, you might get bored, or things might happen, do what you have to do to it on your ps, you have 2 years on your ps still, that's a long time and you never know, things happen. Having a skyline comes with great responsibility, a sense of honor and you have to keep a good reputation for skylines and the club your a part of. So don't do anything stupid with your car, or make it so that police will ream you. You have to think about what your doing and not just think power, you have to think about everything and everyone else you might effect.

Hello all :)

I'm just gonna go dirty 30 I've heard you can get big

Numbers easily?

FYP lol

high 300's with a gt35 and with the right manifold/exhaust can make full boost at 3500.

would i suggest that as a daily? not so much, too laggy? not really, but it is too much power for general street duties when you need wide semis just to avoid spinning 3rd when it comes on boost.

Hello all :)

I have learnt from past mistakes I very rarely creep over the speed limit and haven't done one skid since I've had my license back

Depends on what you want it for. It's all relative and depends on what you consider big numbers. Anything involving a built motor you better be ready to dump 10-20k in it. Looking at any of the engine builds on this forum you can see how they can spiral out of control. Not to mention anything that goes wrong and the time it takes to actually get it all sorted.

In saying that you could buy everything second hand slap it together and put an ebay spec turbo kit on it and crack 300kw pretty easily.

We make a lot of significant' stuff for mining projects (and import a fair share more of it too, to be fair), its just that that isn't a sustainable manufacturing industry.

If you would be so kind :yucky:

Sorry if i rubbed you up the wrong way there, but it twas a busy day in here yesterday

thats ok Pete. But realistically this place is not going to slow down unless it's somehow shut down.

Which I sincerely hope does not occur.

Nick's right. The machining costs alone are astronomical. It has been done time and time again and the results quite frankly sucked.

You can't have turbo compression on an n/a built motor either, the thing would be a pig.

    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
    • Yeah - I mean, go the other way. Smaller range. Not larger.
