How is the car without the ABS?
RB26DETT into S14
Havnt driven the S14 yet without ABS, But on S13 I didnt feel any differance, ABS only works when you lock the wheels, so might make a differance on a wet road, helping to avoid lockup.
Fitted the propshaft. Cost about R350 to have the bigger yoke fitted and they shortened the shaft by about 20mm.

Had the accelerator cable shortened by 230mm to fit the linkage wich is closer to the firewall than on the SR20.

HHHMHMHMHMHM....
There aRE GONA BE SOME CRAZY SX.. 😀 SCARING THE SHIT OUT OF EVERYONE.... 😈
Build the intercooler pipes yesterday. 76mm stainless pipe. Will polish all the pipes with the engine covers after everything is tested.





where do you get the time 😮
RBSX, I do all the work myself, in our earthmoving machine workshop. Have my own space in the back of the shop. Now with all the rain in CT, I have enough free time.
Anyway, fitted the air filters, 2 x 75mm inlet Simota filters. Made some stainless pipes to place the filters in the left front corner.


All these stainless pipes wil be polished.
niiiice!
thats exactly how i wanted my engine bay to look like....... 🙁 Twin turbo...yeh ha
Got the engine covers back from polishing. A bit more work before we can start the engine. Fitting new cam belt and then the engine management system can be wired up. hope to have it started by end of the month.

That looks so sweet.
OOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHH,NICE,Cant wait to see the car on the track,hopefully i will will be on the track aswell watching you from behind 😂
ljS14, I think your car with the mod. RB25 will be faster and more power than the std RB26. RB26's only make more power once the turbo's are upgraded, so I will follow you down the straight !! 😂 😂
I still have to learn how to drive properly 😂 ,By that time you will have 2x GT 28 on the motor 😉 What are your plans with the turbos? What power does the stock RB26 make?
Rather do one big turbo in the RB26.
It will most prolly be more reliable. Or if you wanna do twin turbos, do it sequential, thus the small gt28 or t25g boosting a bigger turbo canceling lag. Just a thought! 😉
yaaaaahhh, sequential - cos that'll keep it more simple.

Not really but its a sweet setup.
Or or or TSI!!! Turbo super charged. The ultimate response machine! Mines R34!!!!
Will see what the condition of the std turbo's is once the engine started. Easiest is to upgrade the std turbo's by replacing the ceramic exhaust wheel with steel and fitting a bigger comp wheel. Then it can handle more boost. Single T66 or GT35R would be the best, but a lot more expensive.
Man you make it all look too simple...
Gonna sell my house and buy a warehouse, with a futon and a fridge, then I can also spend more time on the cars. Not sure what the gf will have to say about that though!! 😮
Hey RB........Hows its coming along
