Holy crap, where can i get me some CF strut towers? thats sweet!!!!....is that a RB26? and what size is that turbo?

Post by **veilsideS14** » Tue Apr 01, 2003 2:30 pm

Yes, it's a BCNR33 GTR engine with a T66 turbo.

Post by **themadscientist** » Tue Apr 01, 2003 2:30 pm

Didn't they try to throw Han Solo and Luke Skywalker into that turbo in Return of the Jedi? My buddy has a T66 on his RB?? I took a look at the compressor map, that thing has an efficiency island the size of Australia!

Post by **veilsideS14** » Tue Apr 01, 2003 2:30 pm

Thanks for the props Night. I'm located in the very cold Wisconsin area. It sucks...hard. Anyway, I got the engine from a dude that lives and teaches in Japan and imports engines and such during his spare time.

Nice aquarium!

Thanks. The tank is a 125 gallon salt water jobbie located above the sofa in my buddy's house. Very sweet. It was just finished a week or so ago so it's not yet established to the point where we can put larger fish in it.

Post by **Siddhartha** » Tue Apr 01, 2003 2:30 pm

I have a fresh water aquarium back at home with lots of little goldfish in it. Was it anymore difficult install the rb26 after going single turbo than an rb25?

Post by **veilsideS14** » Tue Apr 01, 2003 2:30 pm

Nope. All exhaust and turbo plumbing is custom but other than that, the block is the same.

Post by **SilviaLuvr** » Tue Apr 01, 2003 2:30 pm

how are you going to set up your cooler and intake? It apperas that there isn't anymore room to do anything.

Hmm...damn, I guess I'll have to scrap the project

Actually, there is more than enough room to get it all in there. No worries my friend.

HMmm, god's speed with the project. lucky, wealthy, mudda...(grumbles and walks off)

You ever try to shoehorn an RB26DETT into an S14 chassis? If you did, you'd know why it looks the way it does.

Post by **apex_7** » Tue Apr 01, 2003 2:30 pm

Sweet setup! What kind of drag times are you shooting for?

Post by **dreamsOfSkylines** » Tue Apr 01, 2003 2:30 pm

What cross-member and engine mounts did you use? Does your shifter sit in the middle of the center console space? Is the turbo mani custom. Thanks for sharing.

Post by **WDRacing** » Tue Apr 01, 2003 2:30 pm

Thats one of the ugliest swaps I've ever seen, Horrible....F

lol, just kiddin, didn't want to say the same thing as everyone else. 2 bar of boost and some slicks and you should see 11's all day. Good job.

I'll seeya at the track my friend.

Well, the JUN 8-second Silvia runs on stock axels too so I think I'll be okay.

Post by **dcdrifter** » Tue Apr 01, 2003 2:30 pm

Do you think you could email me with your phone # so I could talk to you about a few things? I just pulled my engine out of my s14 and am looking for an rb25det but since seeing yours, many questions have come to mind. [email protected]

Post by **khmaikid** » Tue Apr 01, 2003 2:30 pm

I was just wondering what kinda intake manifold do you have, where did you get it from and how much did it cost??
