Engineering, front brakes, nistune, injectors, turbo & splitfires would need to be done as well...

More cost effective to get the 20 singing.



For someone who's owned his 32 for like 100 years you really are a tight arse...

$2000 engine/loom + $1200 gearbox + $400 brakes + $600 engineering + $400 splitfires + $1500 turbo + $600 injectors + $500 nistune + $500 tune + $600 hoses/misc

Not going to spend $8600 when I can get my car running for $2k and re-use my turbo/injectors/splits/nistune :)

Why do you need Splitfires, Turbo, Injectors, Nistune, Tune... It's going to be faster than your 20 in every way in 100% stock form... 

230kw with my current setup vs. a 170kw stock rb25.

Even so, it will cost me $5k to drop in a stock rb25 setup as opposed to keeping my 230kw for $2k

My 33 GTST did 199rwkw with an exhaust lol. Even then that would be LEAPS AND BOUNDS above a 230kw RB20. It would be leaps and bounds above a 290kw RB20 in comparison. Peak power means shit when you have to wait till 8k to use it on the street.

Gotta look at the long term benefits and potential for future upgrade. Also shaving nearly 6-7+ years off the engine age. Resale value will be slightly increased. General reputation amongst VWLers etc.

Legit the only thing that matters though

Yah but yours is ded... Most likely because it's been forced into making 230kw and it kurt cobained in retaliation.

Stop grieving, start making 2.5L torque...

    • Hi GTSBoy, Excuse my ignorance but what does a "Bad" Knee point mean ? 
    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
