Introduction plus my GU RB26DETT build

[threedogs]

Know of a few GQ spinning all 4 at 100kph be it in the wet, but they were 37"s centipedes ,the GQs made around 325rwKw
1/4 mile times of 14.5 sec. Pretty hard to break the box i would think, these things are "truck Like" .
Your build is it because you can or are you entering comps,etc. There are heaps of wolves in sheeps clothing going around my way
that look std but when pushed, WOW

Look forward to what figures you get from a dyno

[albone90]

love it, what power you getting?

Welcome to the forum mate.

yeah there are a few monster builds going around but alot of people are going the easy and cheaper rb25 option.
Ive heard stories the gearboxes in the 2.8TD are weak as piss though?? =S
its just cause i can, i have no interest at this stage in going for comps etc but it may happen if i enjoy it.

still yet to reach a dyno, that will be in the coming week or two =D

wow. the build is looking good mate, about to start an rb25 swap into my 2.8 gu in the next few weeks.
just getting all the parts together before i start.

Hey mate what did you have to modify with the sump ? Did you use the rd28 sump with a adapter?
And did you use the rd28 engine mounts and modify them or used the rb26 mounts.

Cheers.

Should go well once its all sorted!

[burgo88]

yeah stick with the rb25det for ease of converting!! lol
yeah mate i think you emailed me regarding sump/mount issues so i replied to that.

well bit of a update, got it all in and running and it had a missfire, ended up being a intake manifold gasket, but the shop i got the engine through had warranty so i dropped it there as i CBF lol so now im back from my euro trip im going to pick it up this weekend. Cant wait to give it some P100 and go wild offroad!! =D

ok so a update ias ive not been online for a while. the car was all finished and drove it for 3 1/2 weeks intermittently between other cars and i lined up a sahara 200 series... well it was neck and neck to the top of third gear which was good untill the front turbo decided to shea the exhaust wheel off the turbo, so it was game over that day.

bam im hooked to it now and committed thus far so time for more upgrades

iv just fitted a top mount 6 boost manifold to it, a ne GT30/76 anti surge turbo, tial external 44mm wastegate, braided lines and wired in a apexi power fc dejetro so now the AFM's have gone. just based tuned it and its running so im extremely happy. off to the dyno thursday for a full tune and may run it around 14-15 psi to stay safe. these GTR engines are capable in excess of 650rwhp however my only limitation atm is my 444cc injectors which i plan to keep to try rescue some fuel on long runs haha..

in saying that im expecting a figure of 350-450rwhp on 33s so we shall see what these injectors max out at =D
