Hi all. First off I'm no expert in skyline engines. Now thats out of the way.

Block I'm using is a s2 block. Std crank spool h beam rods and arias -10.4cc forged pistons. Block will get the usual jobss done acid wash hot tank and bored 40th to 87mm. Will be decked to zero deck height. Will use a 1 mm head gasket and neo head. Head is currently in the car on 25 neo engine. Head has been ported with stage 1 pon cams. Flywheel is from extreme billet lighten flywheel. 6 puck sprung button clutch. Inlet will be a greedy copy manifold with 1000cc bosch injectors. Hot side is custom made hi mount manifold by myself in t3 form to a gtx3582r garrett ball bearing item. Fuel will flow via 2 bosch 044 pumps. Will start with bp98 fuel then change over to e85 later on. Nistune will control all the electronics. Spit fire coil packs will fire the good stuff.

If anyone has same sort of set up would appreciate input as to what power I should be able to expect.

301 to 399 rwkw. Too many unknowns. Is it going to be fully balanced with a new harmonic balancer and revved to 9000+ or standard and limited to 7000? Build and tune all count for a lot. You may end up with a sky high compression ratio which will be a problem unless you have access to E85. Don't use Bosch pumps - get something more modern, quieter and E85 friendly.

Those pistons are vl turbo spec.

Have you already bought them?

If not look seriously at something with less or no dish to get the comp up. The days of low comp have been and gone.

If you already have them, no worries, boost it up!

Looks like boost up as I have them already. For 700 delivered not going to complain. Will deck the head and use as thin as possible gasket. Head is fitted with cams 256deg and 9.15mm lift. E85 is available easy access. Will be balanced annd haven't set a rev limit yet

Besides this engine is going into a lc torana witch is around 400+kgs lighter than a r34 skyline. Neos run 9 to 1 comp but are 2.5lt engine. This is a 3lt engine. Off boost shouldn't be too bad as the 30det's only run a mid 7 to 1 comp. Off boost in a vl they are fine.

If 0 deck heights min HG thickness is 33thuo for clearance

I think the dish is a bit big can you machine them down 40-60thuo and then deck block to match

I run 14cc dome top with 0 deck hieght and 1.1mm HG with 63cc combustion chamber ( 26 head ) and have +/- 9.5:1 state CR

I can machine the pistons down 40th and take 40th off the head. 8.44 to 1 was working on 1mm hg. By doing pistons and head machine work will bump it up around 9 to 1. Have looked at the 30 hybrid pages and read verrious builds but not close to what I'm building. Haven't seen any other builds with neo head and gtx35

I've got the bulk of my engine together now

Rb30, Neo head,

Spool I beams

Wiseco 9cc dish pistons.

.051" gasket

Head studs main studs

Standard head and cams to start with but has springs and ti retainers

CPC plenum 6boost manifold gt35

6x LS2 coils

Running a .001 deck height and we had to deck the head down to 46cc ending up with high 8 comp.

I'm hoping to make around 400-450hp with the standard cams on 98 (auto)

Hey lcxu105

I think you may have messed up there with your gasket thickness. Because you're using mm but you are using inches measurement for the gasket. The gasket should be 1.295mm

Using the calculator above. mine comes out to be about 8.94:1

using the summit racing calculator (which allows to you to change hg to inches or mm) I get 8.98: 1

Mind you I could be wrong

Edited by Huzqld

Huzqld you're comp ratio will be a high 9.6 to 1. Mine with a .51 hg and 50cc head wwill be 8.96 to 1.

you have to put the HG thickness in in MM on that scale setup, so you have put in .51mm not 51thou which is closer to 1.3mm

Edit, should have read the whole page before posting lol, Husqld beat me to it :D

    • I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies. 
    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
