should of bought my head, already had cams in it :no: ,

If I were you id slap the neo head on and add some water meth, would be very ballsy motor plus the cam has 8.5ish lift and zero hydraulic lifters to make noise later.. ;)

Yeah, I was seriously considering it man..

But I really needed the head asap as I can't bear to have my car just sitting there :(

+ Not that I don't trust you, but the head would have come from Brisbane etc.. It could have been damaged coming here and if anything happened I wouldn't be able to just send it right back if you know what I mean?

Unfortunately I have already sold the NEO Head to one of my mates for his R34 but I do regret not keeping it.. I realize now I could have kept the head and just got a thicker Head Gasket to compensate for the higher compression but at the time I did not think of that :verymad:

Oh well, That may be a task for my project motor which will be started soon :yes:

no worries im gonna use it for the RB3025 and see what it does,

nice build, front spoiler looks good!

Yeah, I'm thinking the same thing for my build but I wanna take it one step further ;)

Front spoiler..?

not sure what look you going for but here's a pic of my brothers s1, I'd drop my s2 for it if he would sell it to me...

came loaded with nismo gear from Japan, :verymad: and mine had nothing, sorry pictures not the best..

That looks nice!

It may be a Nismo 400R? - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nissan_Skyline_GT-R#NISMO_400R

Also, this.. is my goal (I'm almost there) except with the addition of Wider Rear Fenders + S2 Spoiler :yes:

:yes: :yes: :yes:

I was looking at GTR style ones (no badge of course) but seeing the black on white gives a similar effect while maintaining the S symbol :D

Yeah exactly! I don't know why people switch em out :no:

I personally like em! :yes:

I want this R33 GTR Do-Luck rear bumper, that's what on my brothers car, it continues underneath the body about a foot or more... gives it more depth at the rear..

Not really an update as such

Just something someone did for me and I thought it was cool!

I will be buying ARP Head Studs next week though!

Then all I need is the Head Gasket (Probably a Permaseal Metal Head Gasket) and the Head refurbished :D

Then she's all ready to go on! :w00t:

Keep an eye out as I'll also be documenting the removal and refit of the Head via Youtube :yes:

I will post the links here for all who wish to see it :cheers:

Looking heaps better now... what power you wanting to make?

Can make well over 300kw's with OEM bolts and gaskets... looking forward to the vids... :whistling:

:thanks: mate!

My power goal for this engine is 400rwhp, I really want to see those numbers on the dyno :yes: Then I'll be happy!

Although 1/4 times are what really counts :thumbsup:

Then I am going to leave it at 400hp and a weekender, whilst I start my engine build, RB25/34 :D

Although I am torn between using my current head (The broken one on my car, which will be switched out with the new head) or buying a NEO Head for this, I just don't know whether the slight increase in flow will be worth it with the NEO as opposed to just staying with my head. :ermm:

Update time!

I got my quote from HeadTorque yesterday and although the price seems a bit dear, I am confident this is still a fair price :yes:

They are going to:

- Service The Head

- Pressure Test It

- Sonic Clean And Bleed The Lifters

- Face It

- Supply And Fit Brand New Exhaust Studs

- Supply And Fit 24 Valve Stem Seals

- Check Valve Springs

All for the price of - $1,100 :happy:

But as fate should have it, this will not be getting done till next month! :down:

I am currently casual at my job and have my review next month as I'm waiting to go full time.

I don't want to spend big money now and then be struggling to survive later, should I not get extended :ermm:

I will however still be buying the ARP Head Studs soon, so check back for those updates! :thumbsup:

    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
