Not really, RB30 > N1 Block.. check out what RIPS did with their RB30 The block is far from being the limiting factor in my build.


Thanks for the kind words man

 

Oh you got the rb30. oops. Have you thought about there super charger , twin turbo set up? I'm going to find the link. The set up is dope.

I cant find the link, but here's the picture of it. I'm 99% sure its by rips but that set up would blow people out of the water. Have you encountered that one Nissan SUV beating almost every car where your at? Or I think it was where your at. It could be Bahrain I'm not to sure.

 

That hole shot was ungodly!

 

Am i the only one that noticed the car above is sponsered by Cocaine?

 

Cocaine is a helluva drug!

 

Now that's just crazy!!

My shift **** is here



That sway bar is a little too close to what looks like an idler pulley, wonder if it can be relocated. Bummer I was hoping to go with thicker sways.



Customized adapter for the clutch pedal



And another one for the accelerator



Here's what it all looks like, will have to get the clutch pedal aligned later on!

 

Can't you fab up a couple spacers to sandwich between the U-brackets and the frame where the front sway mounts up? Would need longer mounting bolts but it should work...

 

I guess I can try that, I would probably need to use a similar spacer for the swaybar bushing too?

 

Well, what I was thinking was if you fab up a couple flat one-piece spacers with the same footprint as the whole bracket+bushing assembly then you would be covered. The frame rail mounting face IIRC is just a flat. Even if it's not, just following the countour would accomplish the same thing.

Basically, I would expect the outline of the spacer to be shaped like a large pill, if that makes sense?

 

I haven't been to the shop lately, but we're hoping to start wiring the Adaptronic ECU sometime this week.

For now, here's a shot of my twin in-tank fuel pumps

 

Niiiice! RB won't ever be starved for the go juice!

 

Looking good Sam, nice progress.
I'm seriously impressed with the build.
Your gonna hurt some feelings with that monster.

 

I'm not even gonna ask how much you've invested.

I can't afford it.

But I CAN live vicariously through your pictures... keep 'em coming!

 

Update 08-01-2012:

Great news! The car was started to check for leaks, minor leak in the turbo oil feed was fixed and MAN did it sound like a monster. Stay tuned for video's If everything goes as planned she should be going for ECU wiring & exhaust fabrication tomorrow. Fingers crossed. Here are some pics for now.

Oil cooler is in



OEM wiring with ignition system



Pedals are in and functioning properly!



Close up on the accelerator pedal, was a b!tch to get right the mechanic tells me
