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.

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!

Winner!

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

      After market rear camber arm adjustment

      By sonicii · Posted

      How much have you lowered?  I had 350Z springs in the rear and was able to pull the camber into factory spec with the factory arms on the rear, obviously the front ran negative camber as it isn't adjustable, but rotating the wheels regularly evened out the wear.

      R33 Fuel Pump & Brakes after alarm swap

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Either the installer needs to come back, you need an auto electrician, or you need to learn automotive electricals yourself.   First step Id look at is where that big thing came out of, is there still things unplugged at that location? Maybe they just forgot to put a relay in or something?

      Well, this is probably where a wiring diagram and a multimeter come into play.

      gauge needle removal

      I can say to anyone thats doing this; having done a number of R clusters; just be careful if its an unknown cluster.  It takes a bit of force to pull up; but if it feels excessive then its probably stuck. I've had this and pulled the entire hair spring out; and I can tell you; its not easy getting the correct spring replacement with the correct inner diameter and winding. In my case someone had used some sort of adhesive to stick it to the spindle and it pulled the whole spindle out; which the force seperated the hairspring from the spindal and caused it to deform.  You may have to clean it (IPA); or in my case if i'd known i should have used some sort of solvent on it.  Also check out Cruizin Central on eBay. He does all sorts of dials; and you can email him with any custom designs you want. So if you want like certain logos etc...he'll send you a mock of what it will look like then you accept the order and he'll take care of the rest. Fantastic dials and he can do basically any design you want.

      R33 GTST Axles

      By Jarsky · Posted

      Have you confirmed its the actual axles? Also the wheel bearings that mount on the hubs to hold the axles wear out. I replaced mine as they got play in them. It sorted my play issue.
