well nizy i reckons it wont be nice if it happen that the only place he finds you is on the rear view mirror, i dont care what it is, but i sure dont like being in his rear view mirror. I did some research after i heard this, and their are alot of independent guys out their that say, the xr6t has been under powered before release, while when ford tested it, they did out puts of upto 800kw. Now that is heaps for a ford

that would be a very exceptional XR6T.

Like VERY exceptional. I think he is probably yanking your chain.

the xr6t is not a particularly easy car to make really fast - because it has such a large displacement. to produce that sort of time, you're looking at 800+ ps, which would require a big turbo and some serious internal work.

the catch is, that because he throw is so long for each cylinder, he'd struggle to find rods that would put up with the sort of hammering that a high outpurt turbo would put an engine under at very high boost.

so, I call b/s on the 10 second XR6T.

Nobel what i dont understand is if your flying the flag for Ford so high .... then get dad to buy you one :P ..... we are really trying to care .... but as this is a Nissans forum we really dont give a phuck.

i know my car aint the fastest on the planet .... but it still kicks enough male butt that im more than happy :) not too mention its a Nissan!

i just dont get some people! What does he want us to do .... "a friend of a friend who knows some guy at the other side of the country may have a 10sec XR6T" ...... so? want us to worship the ground you walk on ..... or sell all our cars for Fords now :P ... you are trying to achieve what??

zanda, well i did take it all with a pinch of salt, so i did my research and here is what i found...

240kW at 5250rpm and 450Nm from 2000-4500rpm

6psi turbo pressure

that is what its set to as the standard, and the compression ratio is 8.7:1. Being a 4 L engine it has alot more potential. I just wonder what ford got out of it before it reached danger zone.

capa http://www.capa.com.au/xr6.htm has already released kits that boost it to 350kw and they are working on a 380kw which they think they can achieve no sweat.

I also heard from a ford guy that the trubo can be set as high as 32psi, but i still got to verify that.

There is alot of work happening on it, heaps of people in the east are trying things out on it.

I am just waiting to see if those numbers are true.

I was just sharing some news i heard, after all this is a car forum, and the filter doesnt seem to be set to pick out holden and ford and Maybe you have missed it all this time.

NO I DONT SUPPORT FORD, to me they just stupidly designed, the fools add weight then they think, oh shit its laggin so more fuel ahh thats better.

I hope that settles your misery nizmo, i suggest you look into something more entertaining if this bores you so much.

Gad daaaaaaaiyum some people

    • 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.
