R32 GTR Drag Cylinder Head

 Hi all,

New to the forums after a little advice regarding my rb26 head build.

Im currently building a r32 drag car and im looking at building a head that will support 1300awhp+ , before anyone asks the rest of the engine and driveline will be capable of the power im chasing i just want to do the head right the first time around

I will be starting with a new core.

Im thinking about going sum custom cams but unsure who does the best for this sort of an application.

What i would like to know is who in australia does the best porting jobs on the rb26 with proven results.

Also suggestions on the valve train im looking at ferrea 1mm oversized valves but not sure on what are better in the way of spring and retainer kits. Are ferrea, tomei, and supertech all pretty similar in quality and performance?

Are tomei solid lifters and bronze valve guides going to be up there with the best or is there better available?

Also ive heard of +2mm oversized exhaust valves being an option but unsure of who makes them....

Any advice or help pointing me in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you

any of the well known shops who have proven GTR's will be able to source the right gear and head for you, Maatouks, C&V, GTR Motorsport, JW etc.

Biggest valves you can get, no squish, make is hemispherical, look into plug clocking, lots  of attention to short turn and be prepared to bin several heads finding the limits of jacket thickness.

mate,

after getting in touch with the owner of NAPREC and exchanging about 30 emails... .ive just sent a head off to NAPREC in japan which arrived to them the other day. what i'm getting is JAPANESE precision...you cant get that in australia.

the head getting ported & polished to within an inch of its life to bring out the goodness in the +1mm BIG valves.... and the squish is also getting thrown out the door in favour of the legendary hemi chamber

no need for squish when aiming for brute power with no concern for emissions : )

also, you'll want to change the valve seats for 1000ps+

 

food for thought.

I can guarentee that whatever naprec can do, can be done if not better here in aus and without the 2 year turnaround. They are notorious for taking thier time.

    • Congratulations on your find  Did you mean it has 6k miles or was that a typo? Firstly, keep in mind some movement of the shifter is normal...it is a long rod hanging out of a box bolted to the engine. Having said that there are 2 next places to look: 1. Transmission and engine mounts. If these are worn or broken the shifter will move around more. They are reasonably easy to source and replace on a hoist, and possible but uncomfortable to replace car stands 2. On the bottom of the shifter there is a nylon cup that sits over shifter's ball end. If this is worn or broken the shifter will move around more than it should (but will still shift OK). That is a cheap part and requires removal of centre console, rubber shifter hole covers and a circlip in the gearbox shifter hole to remove the shifter. Re maintenance, as with any new import you should change all the fluids including transmission when you get it; never trust the seller and previous owners to have done the right thing. I am pretty sure R34 GTT is the same as earlier big box transmissions, so use any good quality GL4 75w90 trans fluid if it is shifting well (if it is hard to shift due to synchro wear, redline shockproof lightweight will keep it alive a bit longer before rebuild is required)
    • Well considering I have the exact same problem with that as the original one I don't think that the ignitor is the problem. I would imagine that this being such an uncommon problem the possibility of getting a new ignitor that is bad in the same way as the old one has to be very slim. I'll definitely pull everything apart this weekend and check the turbo out. Got quite a bit of things to check out Saturday like fuel pressure and the pcv so I'll report back once I do that.  Thanks everyone for all the replies this is all really helpful
