Engine conversions?

[SkyGTRline]

Hey all,

I know most of you prefer ED to do the work on your cars...

But is there anywhere else you guys would recomend for an engine conversion..

Somewhere which will do a good, clean job..???

Thanx guys

[Amaru]

Ed is awesome and should be abl.... oh wait ... :Oops:

[leech_]

lol @ amaru

i got nothing on where to take it but what you looking at doing rb25??? the heart of a whale

[race_snooze]

what type of converison do you want to do. I say this all the time but ask Trojan

[Veilside R33]

Pay off your loan and then do a conversion, your gonna get into a huge ammount of debt at such a young age dude and its not good!

if its not for you then you, still have to much debt but its not so bad lol.

[Sinista32]

Conversion to what ?

[Sinista32]

Dont make me hurt you Andrew. Ah hell it'd be fun anyway!

Do you live on a bus route...lol

[SupaFly Skyline]

Andrew, if its a "same" engine swap (ie RB20->25/6) just DIY, most swaps like this are as simple as unbolt old engine, bolt in new engine, maybe a lil bit of wiring, but that bit isnt too hard

Trojan just finished a heap of conversions and they all looked very neat and tidy to me. You havent even told us what the conversion is and to what etc... But yeah i'd see trojan.

[Stirlo_GTR]

All I can say is, Ed quoted me on a few things like swapping turbos etc.. and I was taken back.. so much so that I decided to do it my slef.... Man... I know hwy it cost's a bit, changing the turbos on a GTR is one ****ing anoying job, and not one I'll rush into doing again. And yeah I belive he is fairly priced, but you are paying for experiance and the ability to drive in... drive out.. dont even have to clean your hands, thats a pretty big deal.

If you have the means to do it your self (and the time) I say go for it, it definatly saves money, but be prepared to be with out a car for a few months and have lots of band aids available, be prepared for pain and frustration.... taking an engine out is no easy feat, the concept is simple, unbolt pull out, put in, bolt up, but there is alot more to the application..

If you have the means to pay some one to the the job in several days, Pay it!

Ed's work is top notch! and he is a top, bloke, you get what you pay for!

Trojan are also a good work shop and reasonable priced, I dont know the guys there, but I do know Ed very well. Have known him for 4-5 years, out side of the whole car scene, He will give you no end of help!

Good luck with you decision.!

Cheers

Stirlo!

yea... so anyways... i aint spending the money Andy, its a mates car.. he is spending the money.. not me! so ner!

Still doesn't answer the question.... what's the conversion?

[SKYLVIA]

well depends on how much your mate is wanting to spend... if he has an endless budget then tell him Signal Auto in japan do a great job, lol. i dont know many places in canberra i thought only ed but maybe try looking for places in syd? and yes knowing what conversion he is going for would sure help....

[SkyGTRline]

thanx all...

if it was the RB to an RB in my car id would be doin it...

BUt its a mates lancer... i dont relly want to say much more about it, as i dont really have his permission, and i dont think he wants it let out... if you know what i mean..

Ed was ment to to the conversion within the last week or so, but has now decided it cant be done for another 2 months... thats y were just after another place to go.

Trojan just finished a heap of conversions and they all looked very neat and tidy to me. You havent even told us what the conversion is and to what etc... But yeah i'd see trojan.

They were cai18 to rb20 and an rb25 in 180's

[oscar32]

Hey, putting a whales heart in a non whale a lot of fun makes

OR

You could build a proper fire breathing RB20, 2.4 of course....

[NAman]

Mate,

Just think outside the box....

2JZ... VVTI one turbo

Similar price if not less than a RB26

Just trying to be different

Fit them to eveything...

Seen one in a Walky...
