yes i ordered those for him. which rims the mustang one? those were cheaper to get than to buy the tires for my volks, hehe but im looking into more tires now as mines are starting to go down now. ive been meaning to post on here but just been forgetting to.

the black and crome ones. they look like they would be good on a bigger car. but to each their own.

oh yea i got rid of those long ago im on 18" now those were 19". couldnt find much tires in that size. but prob going to be looking for diff rims then i have now.

[stroked_jz]

still a good looking car. i actually remember when this car, the maroon s14 and the supra from GS was out at the UTI Car meet last year. Fun times, both 240s looks great. Ive even got pictures of your car on my facebook.

[Reece]

I love it so far. Always loved the RB30.

[Oakville]

More more! my old GTR had a 30DETT, not enough guys run em!

[j2fast]

the car is under going a new front end rigth nowi just need a headlight then i t could be back on the road.

[j2fast]

I installed the Q45 rear end the 3.54 gear ratio. was not a easy task of gathering the parts BTW... love the new gears tho so worth the trouble. also i had been having lots of issues with my borg warner turbo and it crapped out on me so i got a comp turbo thriple ball bearing turbo 7879. ive been having a few issues with oil leaking but this turbo, WHOOOOOOOAA, I get out the car shaking at low boost(24 psi). i also upgraded my ECU to AEM V1 tho still good and since then my car runs better to idk why or how i tune both ecu's the same, well i do know why but the tune is better on the aem do to resolution.

thanks very torquey, love it.

[j2fast]

have anyone used the hoosiers R6 tires? ive only used MT ET streets which works good but the R6 are able to go over 180mph which i can take them to texas mile and other places like that.

[j2fast]

some new updates on the car, finished the front end swap. now im having issues with the alternator, hopefully will get it running sometime soon.

You got balls parking that car outside of an apartment complex

[supersayianjim]

lol, oh it dont sleep outside i was visiting my mom... and she was looking cute so i had to take pic.

[j2fast]

more info on why your piston blew please?? and you should upgrade to a Nissan quest alt!!

on the last setup the pistons blew b/c of bad wiring connections which caused the injectors to go from rich to lean with moments notice.

and i have the quest alternator, actually every since i went to the quest alternator ive been having issues, thinking about finding another RB alternator if it comes back with issues.

[j2fast]

well i started back on the car again. the issue was the valve springs broke and bent some valves. so i had to rebuild my entire head, nothing in there is old. i also did some bowl work and quench pad work aswell. came out pretty nice i must say.

[OBEEWON]

RB30.
I feel you son.

[future]

Did you do a 26 head?

[j2fast]

Yes it's an rb26 head.

Car looks great!! love the way you have the R34 valve cover stuffs and everything is polished right :D

also sounds awesome at idle, keep up the great work!

[future]

We need more R26/30 Hybrids in the sates!


what are your TQ numbers looking like? I can't imagine with a 3.1

[j2fast]

Most stuff in there is chrome but will be doing some polishing on the next time

The last time the tq was 670

Any updates on this car?

[j2fast]

Yes I get the car running again. Had to replace the valves and springs in the head. Cams were to big and bent the valves. Now I am trying to find my big boost leak as I can not get more than 24 psi.

I have an oem alt for sale if you need one..

[j2fast]

I upgraded the alt to a better one.

Man your always having issues with this thing.. hopefully you get it sorted

[j2fast]

I hope so to thanks. I have mounted the new intercooler as that was my leak. I will be replacing the fans today then test driving it to see if any other problems come along

How did you get your RB30 block?

[j2fast]

I bought it from a friend in Australia


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

[Sforteen]

what pistons are you using? I see you removed both quench pads.. lots of controversy over quench pad removal

[j2fast]

I'm using mahle pistons. Yes I'm hoping I have great results from the removal but haven't been having any luck with boost when the car was running for the short time


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

[Sforteen]

So you haven't tuned or messed with it since having them removed?

[j2fast]

Nope not really. Then now I have a new ecu so I have to retune the whole car all over.


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

[Sforteen]

When you putting it back on the dyno? Curious to see what happens.. compression. Ratio probably dropped quite a bit.

[j2fast]

I'm hoping I can get it all back work right by the in of may. But I'm thinking it only dropped about .5 compression


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

[Sforteen]

Did you remove the pads for any paticular reason? Any detonation issues Prior?

I still have mine, I'm running 30lbs and made 760whp on my RB25 with rb26 head.

[j2fast]

Well the main reason I removed them was in 6 cyl was damaged by spark plug tip so to get rid of it I had to cut them out.


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

[Sforteen]

Why did the plug tip come apart? What kinda plugs are you running?

[j2fast]

Idk I'm guessing it had a weak tip. I use NGK race plugs. They are expensive I think I paid $40 each


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

[Sforteen]

those are the ones with the really small electrode on the end right? should just stick with some Iridiums they work great. They a wide variety of heat ranges and they are a resistor plug.

Those are also non resistor plugs, ive seen non resistor plugs cause lots of issues with datalogging EMS issues...

[j2fast]

Well I had the older style but now I have the newer ones. But I can tell a big diff over the iridiums just at idle


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

[Sforteen]

what kinda difference?

[j2fast]

It idles a lot smoother most consistent AFR


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

[Sforteen]

Non resistor doesnt seem to bother anything??

[j2fast]

No. Seems real good.

But having some major power issues and can't figure it out. The issues is after driving the car for a lil bit the car looses battery voltage. So I replaced the alternator I had 3 of them replaced and the issue was blowing amp in the alternator. I bought a 200 amp one put it in and the system seems to be working go for a drive and the will run but seems the battery will not stay charged. I replace the battery then 5 min later turned car off and car will not start cuz battery is dead. WTF

Need to start diagnosis the circuit that controls the alternator, should be the same as a normal S chassis.

[j2fast]

I have been reading on it but can't figure it out. Me and wiring aren't good friends

What's up man, looking good. Very jealous btw.
Were you sticking to wet sump or thinking about dry sumping?

For right now I'm sticking with the wet sump more so as I use my ac still.

Yes I'm having a horrible time with figuring out why I keep blowing my alternators no matter what size or brand. I checked all the connections to it and they test good for connection

Sup man, get the car figured out?

Well as I was figuring it out a shop messed up my oil filter and now the whole engine is loss. So I'm trying to source another block and crank

Man, how do you have such weird and bad luck... and oil filter???

[j2fast]

Yes I know. My luck on this car is the worst.

Yes I made a deal with this shop. I tuned a few cars for them so I told them to put a new fmic and fans on then I said well while you at it can you do an oil change. I drove the car home and before I got there the filter came off the car.
