Hi guys

have done some serious work to my engine atm:

2.9L stoker kit

Neo ultimate head

Tomei 260 camshafts 

Yellow jacket coil pack

otaku garage forward facing intake plenuim with a 90mm throttle body

and I’m not even on my L plates yet

thats why I’m doing all this work so when I get my p’s I can do an actual gtt turbo not a plus t setup

so if anyone has suggestions on what I’m doing and what I could do better please let me know 

but back to my main question 

can you convert the internals of a gt gearbox to a gtt

ive heard there the same just internally different but want to be sure

and should I be upgrading diff and drive shaft

thanks jack

No. The NA gearbox is physically much smaller. Like half the size.

You don't need to upgrade either the diff or driveshafts. Not for strength reasons anyway, as the diff is the same strength as the turbo item and the axles are nearly as good. But.....you will want an LSD centre on a turbo.

Note that I said driveshafts. You said driveshaft, and it is not clear whether you meant the tailshaft or the axles. Not that it matters, as both are strong enough.

It's also not clear what the stroker kit and other parts are fitted to. The NA engine? A turbo engine in the shed? If you've done it to the NA, complete waste of time. If you've done it to the turbo, well, the yellowjackets are not a good choice, but beyond that, everything else is OK, if largely a waste of money.

You will need brakes. And, are you sure that you will be allowed to drive a turbo on your P's?

Hi mate 

yeah meant driveshafts sorry typo

and the n/a block is exactly the same as the turbo 

And do you know what ignition coils I should run

im using the n/a block as it’s the same as a det but am putting det head on top

perfect example of why not to fit that style of plenum. lost 1000rpm of response and a bucket load of power. Green is factory plenum, the others are a short runner style plenum. Bin the yellow jacket coils and get a PRP r35 coil kit.

Ok thanks

just wish the stock didn’t go over the valve covers

looks ugly and is really inconvenient when working on your engine 

and do r35 coils stick out of cover?

It's really not hard at all to remove the crossover pipe as required, which is not often.

Get split fires if you want it to all fit factory. You will have trouble with yellow jackets

But look at the peak gain! And how much cleaner the engine bay looks.

I don't like the look of most of those plenums and fitting the new plazmaman ones with engine in is a pain with the water hose/pipe underneath.

No its NOT mate, no piston oilers for a start, and past experience of these blocks found that the turbo oil supply gallery has not been drilled either, or the turbo oil drain hole as well.

Ok lol

lucky i haven’t installed anything yet

does anyone know if you can run the det neo engine without the turbo using parts of a device engine?

And just so everyone knows I’m not dumb it’s just I made a sau acct less than a day ago so am still learning 

and robbo I thought you meant put r35 coils in a rb 

that’s why I got confused

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
