hey guys I been looking at different things with my r33 and I relized all spoilers look shit on an R33 flat back is best and then I looked at the front and thought hmmm a nice twin round headlight conversion would look nice and then it got me thinking ive seen cefiro and R32 R34 fronts on an R33 but what about a 370z front end I reckin it wouldn't look too bed aye.

its a fat car like the R33 is really no other skyline has the fatty dynamics like the whale body r33 wide front gaurds with the lighst going up I reckin would look kick ass.

what you guys think cant find anything on the net yets still looking so either it looks shit or im 1st to think about it lol.

yer I know unique usally mean ugly but I dunno somthin about it makes me want to try it out I mean would look good as a drift car and honestly that pic makes me want to do it even more lol

id think of buying a damn 370z or even Q35 skyline non gtr But the thought of non RB non turbo just kills it.

V6 I can cope with but damn Non Turbo and non Hot plate lights whhyyy Nissan.

Yer I asked a engineer about that he said that the size of the motor is np even an RB30 though the age of the motor compared to the age of the car it cannot legally be done.

Something about pollution standards this is why 13B rotaries aren't slotted into RX8 this is what he said this is only from one engineer that is a mates mate I havnet asked anyone else about it.

I also like the 3500cc compared to even a 2600cc even though the RB26DETT has a heap more power.

What is the engine like with a turbo or 2 strapped to the sides and what about the manual boxes in the Q35's will they handle the added HP of a turbo same as engine?

Any engine with a turbo strapped to the side is the same as before, just now there is a turbo strapped to it.

Rather than going to the trouble of strapping it to the side for no real gain, a turbo conversion would be more useful and no straps required.

Ok look il take the negative comments and all that and stupidity intwined with this project I was asking about but don't insult my intelligence with your smartass comments so much you needed to post twice I was simply asking if you don't ask you don't know.

your last comment is kinda redundant as your contradicting yourself as saying a turbo conversion as what its the same as before what you mean just no plumbing and ECu and all that aswell do I have to write all that in aswell meaning

turboing the NA motor that is in the Q35 do you mean swap the motor out for a V6 twin turbo motor from say an R35 GTR as they are my simplest options im guessing not as cheap as I would expect but that's what I would do if I was to get a Q35?

Don't just jump in enlighten me please.

      Rb25 trigger kit and timing misalignment

      By drifter17a · Posted

      The trigger kit I have is similar to the one in the link below. While going through Facebook, I saw someone else mention a similar issue, and I’m starting to think this could be related to the crank gear itself. I understand these parts are CNC machined, but maybe some earlier versions or individual pieces might have slight inconsistencies—it just doesn’t look right in my case. https://www.facebook.com/share/16an8evZd9/?mibextid=wwXIfr I originally installed the crank gear using the thin OEM washer, but as shown in the attached photo, the timing belt walks very close to the edge. When I tried using a Nitto washer—which is thicker—it actually made the issue worse. The belt walks about 1mm off the front edge, which raises more concern about alignment.   I’ve gone through the full process of elimination:   The tensioner pulley and bolt are brand new and installed correctly. The bolt isn’t bent and is oriented properly. The back of the tensioner and the idler pulley are clean and seated correctly. The idler sits slightly more forward, which I understand is due to its design. I’ve experimented with both tight and loose belt tension, but it makes no difference. As soon as the engine runs, the belt immediately walks forward again—even if I reset it beforehand.     At this point, I’m considering replacing the crank gear with your Race Version 1 (12-tooth), but before purchasing, I wanted to ask:   Are you aware of any alignment issues when using this gear? Would this gear help keep the belt aligned correctly, or could the walking still occur? Does it work with a standard missing-tooth crank and rear washer? Is there any specific crank setup or install procedure required?     For reference, I’m not using a front washer, as the PRP crank gear seems to replace the need for one.   Looking forward to your advice.

      Yep, looks that way. Never driven an E30 or R31 so I can only imagine

      Yuh, My new R34 box is sitting on the workshop floor (in its large shipping box, which is a nice thing on its own), along with a front plate to convert to push clutch. There was no way I was interested in rebuilding my existing one. Was only partly interested in the risk of buying a used one. But, if you want a 2nd hander, I can point you to one in/near Melbourne at least. @Komdotkom has one that should be in good enough condition to be usable. I don't think it's in a for sale thread, you'd have to message him. @redzedhas one that definitely needs a rebuild.
