After years of delays hold ups, lack of motivation... I Got the Engine done and took the old girl where she belongs, back to the track. 95% off all my research was on here trawling the forums for engine build info. Ive got vids on all the rebuild including every failure along the way but it was all worth it because.... well look below i's awesome 380RWHP on 14psi running her in, can't wait to turn her up.

Hey mate, great vid. How do you get 380 RWHP on 14 psi? I am running an RB256DET with same RWHP but at 20 psi.

Can you tell me what you have done to the engine as mine is pretty standard apart from forged internals, balance and bigger injectors with a Nistune board and LM TD06/25G turbo on a standard manifold.

Thanks.

GTX-3076
10.5:1 compression

E85

262 tomie cams

Hand ported head

VCT

Custom 6boost style mani

3.5 inch zauzt

690nm peak torque

And it's fresh obviously. I need to do a comp test now it's run it.

More supporting stuff but those are the power makers.

All the build detail is on the channel

OK now I see why thanks. Yes, should be a bullet once 20 psi dialled in.

I'll have to be honest, I winged it on that lol. But head and block were virgin just got a skim for the MLS gasket and sent it. I did hand rotate her, clear is clear.

That's not true mate, clear by hand vs at 7000rpm are 2 wildly different things!

Yes that's true mate. but still it works. And there was a silly timing issue where if it were close it would have kissed the valves, so I'm pretty confident it's okay. I might have gotten lucky, I might have measured the piston height. It was that long ago when I did it I can't honestly recll, but I remember not doing much about it, and not doing it right if I did anything.

Hillclimb looks great. Much better than what we have here in NSW. Where is it located?

    • I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!  
    • Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
    • I'd say it's a fair bet that the feed and return fluid lines will be in different enough spots that you would need to come up with a way to cut the originals short and adapt with new hard line adaption or braided teflon hoses or somesuch. But really, you have the car, you have the photos of the DMAX rack - you should be able to go out there and see for yourself whether they're in the same or different spots.
    • I've been doing some looking around and honestly was just considering throwing a new rack at it. I saw that the dmax silvia rack bolts up into the 33 with the silvia bushings but not sure if the high pressure lines will sit in the correct spot. I believe other version of the 33 rack are the same/similar to the racks that can be opened up without as much fuss so I assume the dmax rack would fit but any ideas?
    • I've never played with one, but I would expect that you are correct. That slot looks like it is intended to be used to unscrew the end, and the flats on the body would be better than grabbing it around the round bit with a pipe wrench. So, yeah, probably unscrews. You'll probably have to make a tool to drive in that slot.
