ZRB26

Well after 3years and nine months (due to first mechanic doing a runner) my 300zx will be back on the road this Saturday. As the heading says RB26 powered. Currently a red beast but that will change in a few months. The first dyno run was a 1 bar. The final tune will be mid January at 1.5 bar. Will be doing some testing and tuning at QR late January.

Cheers,

Peter.

 

well done mate...very nice...what were your reasons for changing over to a 26?

 

:worthless:

 

Looking forward to seeing it this week.

You still bringing it down?

 

z rb26

Both very good motors, Rb26 Easier to work on , More room, Cheaper parts, Lighter,(not cheap to do conversion) But its very different and it sounds great. Trying to organise photos but having trouble with that. Still trying

 

Hopefully

I will try and get there John, Depends on work

 

Cant wait to see it.
Who is doing the conversion for you???

 

Conversion

Gt Auto Garage Wilston

 

So youve done the first run at 1 bar?

what sort of numbers did you see?

 

First Run

286.4 kws Approx 383 hp

 

not bad at all,with heaps more to come!

you must be holding your breath waiting to see the final result :zlove:

 

what turbo?

 

Very Happy

We were only expecting upto 300kws on the final tune but there is more to come.

 

Turbos

At the moment we are running Two Hks 25/30. But if we have to, the conversion has been set up to take a single turbo.

 

Nice, I will be very interested to see your single turbo setup! Going with something BIG?
