Just wondering what examples if crank girdle blowing out you have? Considering "Vlgod" split a block lengthwise under the head studs and the crank apparently stayed in after running absolutely heaps of 7 second passes with the block . block split with 70psi boost.....

This thread so much negativity. saying why do it why this why that. whats the point. reminds me of a inspirational speach i heard once.

"Dont Listen To The Naysayers"
"How many times have you heard that you cant do this, and you cant do that, and its never been done before."
"I love it when someone says it has never been done before"
"That means when i do it, it means that im the first person to have done it"
"So pay no attention to the people that say it cant be done"


So i say Keep it up. :D

what Mathew said!

whatever happened to doing something different?

bloody hell, there's a dude building a torana hatchback on here with full r32 gtr running gear...

Let's see something original, some innovation and some skilled fabrication!

geez if he has the time and budget to do it i say go for it, i can't wait to follow the build and see the results.

or let's just be like a whole bunch of other modified skylines on here and not have anything unique...

When you say you want to build something, you really mean throw money at something, right? Cause if you havent even run a tape yet, I would be surprised if you know which end of a hammer to hold.

School holidays already?

Just quietly the R35's 4WD system is what makes it such a monster, and all the computers. If you can drop those in the 32 and you will have a monster of a car.

The engine by itself? Apart from people going "oh cool look at that" what does it bring to the plate?

Otherwise you can make just shy of 500hp with -7's on corn syrup. And that's on a standard Rb26....... Let alone bigger twins/Big single/stroke etc...

As much as i would love to see this be done, for the price? you could get a much better car.

wow, judgmental much

but your right, those hammers are tricky

ill go watch a youtube video and see if i can get it down pat

well your right about the RB being a good choice,

but having said that, i think its been done so much we know exactly what will happen

i can even go online and find a dyno chart for the same turbo and cam setup ill prob end up choosing

if we dont push the boundaries we wont progress,

just a little background on myself, i design and build products for a living,

in my life, i always want to do something different,

some times i win and its all fun, sometimes it explodes and we have to learn from the mistake

Do it mate, seriously you will have a lighter motor that sits further back in the engine bay and have 3.8L out of the box, a few bolt ons and it will make big power with a responsiveness that any RB could only dream of, so except the cost its win win win

wow, judgmental much

but your right, those hammers are tricky

You probably should learn, you might need one, you know, because you don't know if it will fit between the struts or not yet...

Seriously, you make a thread on a forum about your big fancy plan, when in reality, you don't even have a plan.

Not saying it wouldn't fit... But if I was planning on spending a metric shittonne of coin on a massive swap job, that would be the first thing to do. Just to know exactly what I am dealing with...

GL anyway... I'm sure this thread will be 20 pages long before there is a pic of progress...

its amazing the response,

its as if people want this project to fail,

for you info Magic Mike

i already measured the engine bay of a stripped R32 Gtr

measured all the relevant distances from the surface of the bell housing area and the center of the flywheel and the front diff of the rb26

i bought a r35 bell housing so i can get the bolt pattern

got quotes for all the work involved

found all the guys to make the parts,

found the engine, its in another state, and before i waste that guys time with a list of measurements i need,

i thought i would ask the experienced guys on this forum,

i wanted to know if it has been done, or if anybody knew of actual hurdles,

all im getting is people telling me im stupid

which i said was the case in my first post

so what your saying is, i should know everything i need to know before i come online and bother you,

i thought this was an exchange of ideas and experience

wow thats a lot of info

well ok,

it HAS to be AWD or its not worth it,

the diff ratios are the easy part, and CV joints are much more forgiving than people think,

the diff and hubs can be misaligned a bit and work fine, the whole point of the CV is the flexible transfer of the power, they have a range they can work with

the biggest question is will it fit, so jay-rod is right, we have to get the tape measure out

and i think people forget the "waste of time/money" expression was used before, on people who wanted to get 1000hp out of a 2.6L

and now guys are doing that all day every day.

in my mind a car with the same engine as a R35 but 200-300 kgs lighter is a MASSIVE incentive

just a small increase in boost on the stock engine some tuning and we might crack 10 seconds

and the engine would be relaxed and comfy so it will last longer,

then if it worked, a big IF, people would know that its possible and try other interesting builds

Sure sure mate. Good luck with that.

Over and out

Go Hard Or Go Home.

on another note have you even thought about where all the intercooler pipe work is going to go? like will it even fit behind the bumper or are you going to have to customize the radiator area /front structure of the car to make it work? wouldnt mind knowing your plans for all this. and TBH i think the Twin Throttle bodies are the least of your worries. as said above your going haltech and there capable for fly by wire systems...

i thought the haltech would be ok too,

but i rang haltech and they said i would need to convert over to a cable system

there is a way to go around this and keep the electronic throttles

but the 4wd system in the r32 will work better with a traditional TPS

this is what the guy from the ecu wiring company said

as for the inter coolers, i will make it fit,

the block is shorter and the radiator fan is gone the one i will use to replace it will be slimmer

there should be enough room for a custom setup

im pretty good with cad and i have a team of fabricators that are good at welding pipe working for me

    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
    • Yeah, that's fine**. But the numbers you came up with are just wrong. Try it for yourself. Put in any voltage from the possible range and see what result you get. You get nonsense. ** When I say "fine", I mean, it's still shit. The very simple linear formula (slope & intercept) is shit for a sensor with a non-linear response. This is the curve, from your data above. Look at the CURVE! It's only really linear between about 30 and 90 °C. And if you used only that range to define a curve, it would be great. But you would go more and more wrong as you went to higher temps. And that is why the slope & intercept found when you use 50 and 150 as the end points is so bad halfway between those points. The real curve is a long way below the linear curve which just zips straight between the end points, like this one. You could probably use the same slope and a lower intercept, to move that straight line down, and spread the error out. But you would 5-10°C off in a lot of places. You'd need to say what temperature range you really wanted to be most right - say, 100 to 130, and plop the line closest to teh real curve in that region, which would make it quite wrong down at the lower temperatures. Let me just say that HPTuners are not being realistic in only allowing for a simple linear curve. 
    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
    • God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
