redrb26240z Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 The air cleaners are low down in front, in between the engine and the chassis rail. The idea is to pick up the air from under the car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rayaapp2 Posted December 21, 2008 Share Posted December 21, 2008 Well almost... with the exception of a radiator... and the hydraulic clutch is dry still, but it starts and runs! I even finished the exhaust up! Please excuse my mess it became late and I was sucked deep into it and started to neglect my work space.

Canadianz Posted February 22, 2009 Share Posted February 22, 2009 Here is my RB, it was a combination effort of my brother and I, and our first build . . . Its a stock long block with a T3/T4, intake and some other bolt ons. I'm running 10psi on the stock ecu, with a wide band and its still nice and rich. I plan on running a bit more this summer and saving up for an ecu and injectors. Here is the car which looks pretty stock outside . . .. Oh and here is the shell we started with ....

Almighty Wez Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 Here is my RB, it was a combination effort of my brother and I, and our first build . . . What exhaust manifold is that? A custom one or an S-tec or something similar? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canadianz Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 What exhaust manifold is that? A custom one or an S-tec or something similar? Thats a $100 ss autochrome top mount. A real gem. lol In all seriousness it performs just great. We modified it to get the fitment just the way we wanted it, and then slapped some heat wrap on there and haven't had an issue so far.

Canadianz Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 Its actually a modified ss-auto chrome header. The fit was pretty crappy I had to re drill some holes for the bolts and reposition the top flange. Other than that bit of fiddle work I'd say its a great header, no boost creep, no cracks, good welds too (checked out by a professional welder / instructor). I used a stock Nissan exhaust gasket and it seals great. I also heat wrapped and silicone sprayed the entire thing. So if you don't mind doing a bit of fiddle work its a great buy.

I wasn't sure that the regular aftermarket RB26 manifolds would fit in the S30 engine bay. How did you redo the top flange? Cut it off and reweld it? Was it too close to the valve cover or something?

Canadianz Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 You got it, we cut it off, then it was re-welded back on with a bit less angle the hot side of the turbo was super close to the valve covers... This was how close it was ... any how got it fixed up nicely ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The love of JDM Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 Great thread, really peaked my brain on doing a swap in 240 72' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oddmanout84 Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 Great thread, really peaked my brain on doing a swap in 240 72' I also want to do this swap like no other, but simply just don't have the funds for it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
240Z_Master Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 By no means are these any motor money shots... but I was cruising around El Toro and came across some abandoned buildings on the old deregualated MCAS. Sorry the last one is dark, I'm photochopping it now. Enjoy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zardilla Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 Here's a quick picture of the my updated engine bay. The local shop that finished the swap for me did a great job.
