No Frigan way, lol on my single set up yea maybe.. Not with twins

Costs you more to do an engine by the time you refill coolant, power steering, front diff too

Actually I take that back... Not even with a single

Says the bloke building a 3.2 L. :D

Oh shit, beeeeen soooooo long I forgot about that and I was just getting used of the awesome power of the Tiida on 98 pump :)

Just been told the motor is complete and they are modifying the sump to suit the RB30 all wheel drive conversion, whatever that means :)

They bloody well should have from factory. Fairy ass 2.6 junk

Rb 30s don't have an awd sump

maybe thats why they are modifying it?

I do have a 9Lt sump on the car.

Ahh yes.. I forgot about that..

Please tell me your getting your old engine and head back?

getting everything back , I will need a truck to pick up all of the leftovers :(

took me less time doing the engine swap leaving the box in then taking it out

We don't build em to drive them around the car park :P

Pretty true mate, I was going to buy a new GTR but I did not have a feeling for them, saw the R34GTR and bought it , untuned and still had 1000 Klms to run it in. Unfortunately it was nothing like the Lees said it would be once it had the final tune, peaky 338awkw and crap as a DD.

Had to make my mind up what to do with it, modify it so it drives the way I want or piss it off. I tried a few mods that worked OK but still to weak until 3500rpm. the only way I could see how to get it firing up from the get-go was a stroker, maybe I went too far with the Nitto 3.2 but I figured more is better than less for what I want and the right foot or boost controller can take care of the extra power if I do not want to use it.

Might try some Hill Climbs and a few Mugs day at EC??

Have a look at it, how could I sell it, A GTR Skyline and like anything, if you like it, you like it!

    • Hey everyone. Is there a way I can get the original window sticker (maroney label) for my 1995 R33 GTST? I doubt I’ll be able to ever get it but it’s worth a shot to ask
    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
