i spoke to a custom garage today, he is doing some numbers and getting back to me,

he is extremely confident,

and has done things like this before, not the exact same, but swapping engines with jap turbo cars

What happened to your team of fabricators and cad skills?

wow you guys are really critical

have you ever heard of collaborating

you cannot do everything on your own

i have different guys making different things

all these components have to come from somewhere

gearbox adapter plate

custom CV chafts

custom tail shaft

custom exhaust

ECU wiring

throttle bodies

inter cooler piping

custom engine mounts

custom bonnet

fuel setup

custom panel beating the engine bay (big hammer)

you want me to make all that on my own, ill be here for the rest of my life

so i have found the best guys in each area to help me out

sorry if i spread the work around

my guys have certain skills, they cant do everything

now if i said i had a team of magicians, thats a different story

Wow, yes its going to be expensive, he said he didn't care about cost, if I had money to throw around I would get a Toyota 4 litre V8 in my 5 and then blow it, is that smart or stupid, who cares what other people think, I don't.

As for the RB, yes it was a good OLD motor, but by Christ there are better newer powerplants out there.

Stop posting, buy it and build it, post in here when its done.

As for the fab work, you need a pelethera of subject matter experts and fabricators for a project that involves lots of mechanical and electrical engineering.

Its been done before, its not new, just make it happen.

BTW, all this talk about street racing makes me think you are a pimply school kid, if this is indeed true, please go away now, thanks for the LOLS everyone.

Quoted for truth

Looks like it bump steers like a mofo! What's with the manual stick AND the tiptronic? Wierd....

Sounds like he's running 044's too....

Looks more painful than enjoyable that's for sure!

looks like it runs an air shifted box of some sort...liberty maybe

Winner!

It is a drag car only, they have run mid 7's with an RB... now with a VR inside.

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
