RB26240Z Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 It was on and off for a while, at one point I was ready to sell it, but finally pushed through and got her running. Here are some pictures 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annunaki Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 She's Gorgeous,,,,,very well put. Congrats! I'm jealous. You're local to me, what wheels and size? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neverdone Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 That is fantastic. Now all you need is another 14 years to get it running right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtnickel Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 It was on and off for a while, at one point I was ready to sell it, but finally pushed through and got her running. And I thought the 4-5 years i took was a long time! Well done! I've just been driving my rb'd Z for only about a month now and loving it! (other than the occational exhaust smell in the cab ).

RB26240Z Posted August 26, 2016 Author Share Posted August 26, 2016 Annunaki- The wheels are CCW's 17 in. It's actually tuned also, on the lousy 91 we have here. @17 PSI - 480whp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtnickel Posted August 26, 2016 Share Posted August 26, 2016 @17 PSI - 480whp. Nice numbers! What turbo? when does it spool by? I'm always contemplating going to a bigger turbo, but the "drive a slow car fast" vs "drive a fast car slow" debate always comes in. I'm finding even on a base tune around 10psi on my rb25, it's great for back road carving being able to put the power down here and there. It feels fast as it is, but I can only image what what 480whp feels like. Certainly would be a highway monster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RB26240Z Posted August 26, 2016 Author Share Posted August 26, 2016 RB240Z_91 (2).bmpTurbo is a Garrett T04Z, I attached the graph of the run so you can have a better idea, but driving it feels different than the numbers suggest, Spools really quick after 4k, and pulls hard to 8k, there is lag in city traffic, but it's not that bad. My tuner is doing a Turbo swap on a R32 using the GTX3582r, waiting for results. I know that will spool faster but also run out in the top end at 7k.

RB26240Z Posted August 26, 2016 Author Share Posted August 26, 2016 Here is a printout from a R33 RB26 @18PSI - 557rwhp, with the GTX3582r, not sure what fuel, but you can see the difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This may be my next steps, single turbo route, I've been tracking on the stock turbos, reliable but ready for upgrades. And what EM are you using? So far I'm heading for the plug-n-play AEM.

Nisssmo510 Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 What are the specs on your wheels and tires? That looks good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
98blackbell Posted September 5, 2016 Share Posted September 5, 2016 Great build, How are engine temps? Wondering because we set up our oil cooler between the inter cooler and radiator like yours. Having some temp issues when hot lapping at events. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boosted300 Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 Looks awesome...way to stick with it! Question...are the NT01's noticeably noisy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RB26240Z Posted September 13, 2016 Author Share Posted September 13, 2016 Nissmo510- The wheels 17", with 5 1/4" backspacing. Tires are Nitto NT01's, rear 275/40/17, front 255/40/17 98blackbell- Engine temps are fine, 190-195. Haven't been to the track yet though. boosted3- they are little noisy on rough surfaces, otherwise ok on freeway. Once at the right temp, it sticks like glue.
