hi all. im thinking of making a drift/rally/hillclimb car with my cousin. i was thinking of using an r31 gx3.0 shell and putting his rb30et that he has in his garage in it. what i want to know is what i need to consider when doing this. is it a feasable idea. this will be the first time i have undertaken something like this and i will use it to learn more about turbo engines so any help with what i need etc would be greatly appreciated thanx guys.

also how do i go about getting a cams licence?

thanx alot guys and gals

well I don't know about rally but drift and hillclimbs are easy to get a CAMS license for. 1) join a cams affiliated car club, then its about $80 to cams and you are in.

As for how easy to but a 30det into an r31? dunno......

      thanks for the advice on the box... i was thinking the 6 speed was better for cruising on the highway but on closer inspection and comparison the Rb 5 speed box was not too different...  So the choice is going to be the RB25 box... if I can save up and find one at the right price

      Thanks Matt, yes that's what i am aiming for. Just going to apply the right voltage and grounds to the dash connector. Hence my search for these pins... any chance you know if these pins are in the same spot as the ones on the S15 Dash connector? as mentioned above on page 8?

      Yes, unfortunately that's the one. Signal was noisy to begin with; after driving once and looking back at the logs I saw pressure constantly swinging between 0-200psi, or staying at 0 randomly for a few seconds. There's a lot of good sensors that share the same look and feel, so don't presume they're all bad. I bought mine for 20$ off Amazon and I should have read the reviews prior, as it's clear they're junk.  I purchased a lowdollerr motorsports sensor.
