Raw Brokerage - S14 RB26 Build Thread

[RRRRB]

looking good, however if it were me id mount the BOV out of sight, those things are goofy looking...

[higgzy]

If this is your street build I would be scared to see your full track build! So cool!!!

Ricky, you gonna run some 10's in that bad boy when it's done?

[Coolwhip]

Just out of curiosity, any reason why your using a full-race manifold and not your own?

Reason being was that I had almost everything Fab'ed up on a Full-Race we had here and given that I was running into a completion deadline for the Tail of the Dragon meet I opted to not change up the exhaust side. Only for this reason I stuck with it. The turbo setup is going to change soon, and at that point since everything is getting reworked I'll have an opportunity to switch it out.

10's as in speakers? no

10's as in wheels? yes (already up front )

[RRRRB]

i think he means quarter mile

suspension, wheel and tire combo isn't really setup for 1/4 stuff but we'll see. As mentioned earlier... for now just my daily driver which sees about 90-100miles on any given day.

[HxC_Nismo]

it looks like a mirror copy of my build lmao

That's a super clean setup. Thumbs up all the way. I'm definitely checking out your shop around the end of the year for my rb25 swap. Quick question do u sell those intake manifolds? I see it retains the oem throttle bodies. Does this make the engine more responsive?

[Beat92240]

You were creepin' up on my build thread so i had to return the favor. Like I said earlier, the white with the gold heat wrap is so clean. Looks fantastic.

As for the guy above me asking about the manifold...All the pictures I saw in this thread were just of the OEM RB26 manifold it looks like. Unless one of the last ones it was swapped out and i didn't quite catch it...So I'm sure they have a couple laying around down there.

If not I do

[DLeeTT]

Sorry I'm new to this. And my mind was stuck on rb25 so when I saw that he kept the itb and didn't have to use a single large throttle body I got interested. I've seen a guy custom make a manifold using itb's to use on a turbo engine to experiment with to see if it was more responsive so I was wondering if it was a similar concept.

[boostedh23a1]

I want a ride in a single turbo rb26... I dont know if i want to go with Group-N or a small single. Only looking for 500whp. In a S30 that will be plenty...

Added some finishing pieces to the engine bay...

R34 GTR Coil Cover badge
Custom catch can
Carbon fiber cooling panel
First pass in Cleaning up the fuse box

[chad b.]

Is that the Garage Defend cooling panel?

[Coolwhip]

So had made some exterior changes a few months back... Including is the DMAX Hood, Origin Lab Corner Lights and winkers.

Also got some new gear from Nissan including a JDM S14 Front Bumper, JDM S14 grill, JDM Headlights...

the result thus far...



And after 8 months of having fun with the car decided to pull her all the way back down apart for some paint...

[gmac708]

Any ideas on the color??????

[Coolwhip]

Base coat...
