Your starvation thread was actually the reason I started looking into this, but I don't plan to track my car yet (not weekly at least) so we'll see how it goes. I'll be keeping my OEM pump in case I need a surge tank

 

Hahaha that's pretty awesome right there!

Let me know how it goes. If I keep my G in the coming year I will need to do something about that problem or my track work is going to be limited.

 

Great job Man! Can't wait to see the final result.

I used to have 1995 skyline 33 GTS RB25 (right hand) , the problem with those engines are every single part of it either you need to order from Japan or to be customized and special made . I really hated that. But when it's ready and you start the car you will love it to death. All the best.

 

Great work so far Sam! Im loving this! Cant wait to see it finished

 

Gosh I'm so pumped to seeing this finished!

 

Thanks man! You clearly haven't been introduced to Raw Brokerage then Or the Sharjah Scrapyard haha. Sourcing parts for my build has been far from difficult, just needed to be patient while they flew across the planet.

Thanks guys! Wait till you see what I have planned for the gauges & sensors They arrived today but I haven't had the time to play with them yet.

 

I'm guessing all data will stream live to your braaaaaains.

 

Sam im not on this site to much but i just read the entire thread.I have to say mad props to you on this build as it will be a one off for a long time i think.The updates you give is also great and not seen to much on these types of builds as it seems they take forever on other forums...so congrats and i hope it all turns out great for you.

 

Damn! just came across this thread.

Awesome SAM! This some good stuff. Can't wait for the beast to be born.

 

Update 20-12-2012:

Awww dayum look what showed up!



Engine bay blasted and cleaned with every detergent on the planet! Haven't seen it this clean in 5 years haha



Engine and transmission mounts, welded and painted ready to go back in



Poor crankcase was cut and welded 270 times before they got it perfect. Will be prepped and painted to look OEM again.



Oil temperature sensor thread



Transmission spacer surfaced and painted to match the engine block. Stealth mode baby!



Eibach fronts without the engine & transmission for those wondering

 

Hot stuff! You must be so excited!

 

Is that the donor Skyline I seen in the background of the last pic Sam... LOL

 

I just bought a NEO6 and will be going through similar build. Good to have someone to take notes from, many thanks !!

 

Goes to show how heavy engine and transmission really are

 

Going nuts man!!

I think it took around 5 donor skylines to source my build

Oh wow! Now we're talking! When will you be starting your build?

True that, even the rb combo wasn't as heavy
