Shame on you for not putting this in the Parts Wanted section. This? http://www.ebay.com/itm/Nissan-Skyline-RB25DET-OEM-TURBO-COMPRESSOR-OUTLET-RB25DET-USED-/282208435178?hash=item41b4eefbea:g:qmsAAOSwYIxX9RZn&vxp=mtr

Anyone use one of these with success? Says for USDM speedos only..but ya never know. Would be nice to have the stock gauge running with a motor swap. http://www.speedhut.com/ecommerce/product/2585/SPEEDBOX%E2%84%A2-GPS-VSS-to-Mechanical-Drive-Speed-Converter

I miss being able to toss the hood up with a finger..

Nice, started watching episodes

"CAD" I like that hah. Looks good further back.

Yep that's definitely it. Interesting thing to find I guess. Thanks!

So I found this a while back in a field near my house. I'm pretty sure it's a foot peg or step of some sort but from what? If I had to guess I'd say some sort of farm equipment but being a California native I don't have much experience in such things. What do you guys think?

Alignment is complete and feels better than ever. Set camber at - 0.8 on all 4 corners. The people who run the truck scales were on vacation so I wasn't able to get the car weighed unfortunately. Got the new alternator in, no more drain! I decided not to go with the underdrive pulley in case that wasn't helping the overall cooling of the alternator. Radiator is in. Much cleaner, not as much bling but functions like a champ. Takes forever for the fan to kick on at 185*. The Spal fan runs so much smoother than the previous generic fan I was running. Just need to find a 90* barb fitting for the overflow drain tube so it's not flopped over the intake.

Having owned both n/a 2JZ and n/a RB the power delivery is quite different. The 2jz has really good low / mid range power and torque and falls on it's face in higher rpms. The RB has good power all around the rev range and pulls hard all the way until red line. Both are going to be 180-200 hp and with a bunch more money 20-40 hp if your lucky. The 5 speed transmissions in the 2j's (from the is300 at least) have issues and just don't feel right, it's one thing I hated about my IS300. I personally like the RB motor over the 2J, it feels stronger, sounds better, and it's Nissan for god sake! The question you have to ask yourself is what do you want out of the car? A track car? Sunday driver? No one here can tell you whats right for you. Do your research, make a game plan. Execute.

I planned on running the oem upper hose too but it has to come from Japan and the cheapest I was able to find it for was around $30 plus another $24 for shipping. I didn't want to pay over $50 for it. The s13/s14 guys use a z32 lower hose since it has the bulged end and cut to fit with success, you can apparently use whats left over for the lower too. I got the z32 lower hose for $25 shipped. For anyone interested the part numbers: OEM R34 upper radiator hose - 21501-AA000 OEM R33/R34 lower radiator hose - 21503-72L00 OEM Z32 lower radiator hose - 2150340P60 Gates Z32 lower radiator hose - 21878
