the motor is still kicking strong so there is no point to build it yet.


and Frank it was a ja one, then i throw it in the bin and started fresh with a sheet of steel and a bender. that is the result.

the shelds will go on later!! gota make them fit.

didn't look behind it when it was out to see if it was 6 bolt or 7 bolt?

And how much work was it to make that front end?

yer its a 6 bolt one (arnt some evos 6 bolt?)

the front end was hard to get it right, hard to get the shape,
in short it wasnt easy thats for sure!

you should of forged the bottom end cause those turbos don't really perform till like 25-30psi!

but looks like 100% sexy times!

Your kidding arent you. i made 309rwkw @ 16psi and 328rwkw @ 18psi on a stock rb26 gt35r .63 which is the smallest gt3582

My 4g63 with a highflow tc05 makes around 230rwkw, so i hope this makes at least 280

i just believe that the GT35 is not going to be at its full potential till 25-30PSI and actually looking at the compressor map efficiency it looks like its real happy from 35-40PSI.

vr4 motors are 6bolt, all evo ones are 7 bolt.

You will find that compressor maps are absolute pressures which includes atmospheric pressure of 1 bar.

your right mate.
it wont be at its potential untill 25psi + but and the same time why build a motor that is still strong?( i do plan to build it but not until it dies)

Adriano your right too the nissans motors are tuff as nails!
my brother had a rb25 that made 394bhp atw on 17psi with bolt ons, stock motor and it did it for a year till we built it!

we will know monday arvo what it gets!

thanks Ricethief! now i know the difference!! :beer

shit bender that set up at 25 psi looks alot like 300k atw to me mate.
dont let the tuner poof out either, alot of less educated minds havent seen the strength of the 4g!

especially with those sticks it'll be hairy as up top!!! :beer

stock internals will live mate provided your favourite thing isnt to pull full load speed runs all day LOL

awesome work mate love it!

hell yes!

driving style has a huge amount to do with your motors health at this power.

as a result alot of tuners wont boost your motor that hard standard as they dont want it trailered back with its guts hanging out.

its a tidy conversion so just bullshit him and say its forged.

why forge it if aint broke? makes the 4g look soft if everyone forged above 10hp :beer
