Just a quick update:

Motor started 😈 , but turbo was F'd, had to get a new one, so on went a brand spanking new T3/T4. That blew the budget completly as it was not planned for and R 5000.00 could finish a whole lot of other smaller things.

Still to do: Build Boost pipes, Build propshaft, fit exhaust and bleed brakes and clutch. This thing needs to run BEFORE Christmas......

Hold Thumbs guys !!

awesome stuffs man!!

🙁 🙁 🙁 Car was finished, went to the dyno and melted 2 pistons because of a blown head gasket !!!!!

There goes the budget once more, but at least I got to drive the car for 15km's, thats last week wednesday.

🙂 😛

Today took delivery of my RB25, thanks to a fellow forum member !!!!
Now its starts all over again......... But at least this time its a NISSAN.....
Suppose the SX had its way of telling me the 7M does not belong there, Will be using the new turbo I bought for the 7mgte,
and also the 650cc injectors, except for that everythings
changing once more.

Having a button clutch made up at the moment.... will keep you guys posted !!! 😈

best of luck with the RB25

HHighboost21 Jan 2010, 15:27

Thanks Rat!! I really need it, This has been the most dissapointing and
most difficult build I have ever done! But I think it will also be the most
rewarding once its done...

Just want to thank Anre (neptune tyres),Japspec and Rudeboy, for the
help and "motivational" Drifts in their cars to keep me going... Nothing
like having a spin with Anre and JAPSPEC going side ways at 140km/h -
160km/h to get the heart pumping and the energy going to finish the
project.

At the moment I am that guy that normally stand next to the track telling everyone about his monster car, but no-one ever see it and I hate that !!!!!!

IT's not too late.. GO SR20 !! .. FTCW.. 🙂

Just a quick update, picking up the new clutch today....

So the RE-Build can start tomorrow. 😈

What boost can you safely go with std rb25 injectors?

jjap spec26 Jan 2010, 11:16

depends on the size of the turbo.... thought you had bigger injectors?...

0.8 is fine....

if rudeboy or bennie have anything to say.... 1.4 is fine... with your 650cc's that is

depends on the turbo but not very high. 0.8 max i think. the injectors are only 370cc

HHighboost26 Jan 2010, 12:58

I do have a set of 650cc Bosch injectors, but I do not have a fuel rail for it yet.......

Just returned......went to go pick up the clutch, but surprise, surprise its
not ready yet. So another day down the drain.

We have so far replaced all nuts, studs and bolts with brand new ones.
Coils are fitted, intake has been fitted, exhaust manifold is fitted,
powersteering pump is fitted, engin mounts fitted. Slave cylinder fitted to
g/box, G/box mounts and adaptors fitted, we only need the clutch to
Put the motor in the car.

Maybe I'll have better luck tomorrow???? 😕

Welcome to Africa.....and I can promise you that they havn't started with your clutch till today when you wanted to pick it up....

HHighboost26 Jan 2010, 14:12

Just said this morning, that I am sure we have all had the

My Tuner , become My friend
My friend then become my enemy

Just because of promises made and not kept......... Or prices changing......
Are there any tuners out there that gives a Written qoute number1 and number 2 does not find 1000 extra's that they haven't qouted
for and then want to tell you its unforseen costs.

But there is one good thing that comes from bad service..........

I AM BECOMING A BETTER MECHANIC MYSELF....... 😈 😈

Be careful... SXs' hear evertything

DDracomoderator28 Jan 2010, 07:32

Now comes the part where you hope it fits.....sometimes they take the wrong clutch....and you end up stripping everything....just to find suddenly the it does not fit 🙄

but....thats just some lucky folks. 😀

😂 just mocking you....sure it will fit 😉

CCharlvdw28 Jan 2010, 10:05

Who the f*ck are you referring to as lucky??? 😀

HHighboost28 Jan 2010, 13:54

We are the lucky ones !!!! 😂 We all own 200SX's

200SX - the car you only drive in your dreams. 😂

Back to the build, the clutch at least fits, should have everything in and
going by end of next week........ 😈 😈

Current set-up Std RB25 with a T3/T4 turbo, and a custom intake, looking
at running it @ 0.6 - 0.8bar for now with the standard injectors. Will later
upgrade to the 650cc injectors, bigger fuel pump and HKS fuelrail with
the idea to up the boost to 1.1 to 1.2bar.

......... where has my piggy bank gone (RIP)- Flippen SWINE FLU !! 😈

here you go some pics of the RB lump - waterboy
