Thanks mate, im hoping for much better then 12's, its run 12.8 previously with a 75hp shot of gas, it will now be running slicks and has a stall convertor so getting off the line and traction problems should be eliminated. Im not gonna speculate on what it will run but it should haopefully be stupid.

it gets all sorts of wierd looks and both positive and negative comments, quite frankly i dont care about the negatives, i did it too be different, and have a quick street car, i achieved both and now its just gonna be quicker and have a neat little whistle.

I can't imagine anything negative about it.

Top car and a top conversion.

How many RWKW approx?

Well done mate. I'd rather be original like you then to blend in with the rest.

I'd like to see you take on this guy:

Thanks mate, Im still going to lay claim to having australias first road registered V8 r33 skyline as my conversion was finished well over 18months ago now. An LS1 would be cool, but the staying all Nissan and having a more hightech lightweight engine for less cost was very appealing.

How much does it weigh and what is it's capacity?

Its 4.5Ltrs, well now for legality and registration with a supercharger its been "destroked" to 4.38 :) its lighter then the standard RB, the whole car is only 70 odd kg's heavier and all that is from the gearbox that is the size of a small house.

Though since then it has lost quite a bit of weight, if u read the thread i linked up the top, the whole car has now been gutted to bare esentials and things needed to be street legal.

Very nice conversion, although I am puzzled by the layout as the engine looks mounted East West. Is it still RWD?

that inlet manifold is decieving, have a look at the engine block :)

btw, nice work NA-R33, but not NA anymore ;)

    • The car remains in paint jail. I am now pretty convinced that the whole "RB25 Airboxes are kinda limiting to ~300kw" could be a thing. Also saw a good video from Engine Masters: (Sorry for FB link) (https://www.facebook.com/watch/?ref=search&v=761771519471924&external_log_id=c10bcbb6-2c39-4ff3-9240-287e9921fde6&q=Cold Air Considerations) Where they tested Pod Filter sizes and kept adding bends to a LS3 on an Engine Dyno to find if bends caused power loss. It's a good video worth watching - They did lose ~25hp from making an intake which had 3x90's and a 120 degree. They only lost maybe 1hp with a basic 90. I feel that by sealing up my airbox I have: 1) Created the same restriction a stock airbox would have. 2) Created a very convoluted set of intake 'pipes' by forcing all the air through the ducts. So I am pretty confident I'll be going full circle and have a huge hot air intake pod and actually see a benefit. The air does *not* stay hot once it gets flowing, aided by the ducts, and the pod can then pull air from anywhere. All the posts of yore talk about the stock airbox costing 10-15kw at 300kw+ but you know what? I f**king would very much like that 10-15kw and I remember my own pod filter in engine bay experiences. Turns out the GTT Reo and Headlight brackets really don't allow you to mount GTR items, no matter what the internet says. Various brackets have had to be made up to actually make it fit right for the front bar. Also some idiot mounted a 3L Accusump right where the bumper wants to go, so that has had to be 'relocated' To where, I am still not sure, but it's supposedly mounted in the pictures and I can't see it.
    • Sounds like the oil pressure light is wired into the oil temp sensor... As it warms up, resistance on temp sensor reduces, hence more current can flow and the dash light gets brighter.
    • Got the front subframe and suspension in.    
    • If it's cold in summer, then no issue. If it's cutting out every few seconds and you're not reaching your target temp, then there's an issue. One could be the pressure switch and the other issue could be the temp probe inside the evaporator.
