my r32 heart transplant.....

[dazgtst]

right its time to get this show on the rd,

over the next month or so i'm gonna be giving my r32 gtst a new heart, the doner will be an rb26 dett. with the goal of gettin 350brake at the wheels with a good torque figure. i have full use of a Dyno Dynamics dyno so an accurate figure will be seen on both bhp and torque.

i have a budget of €2000ish not including the cost of a turbo or management system so we will see how i get on.

list of parts so far to get at glance of the 25

things needed

full gasket kit
water pump
n1 oil pump
piston rings
full race bearing kit
tomei rod bolts
turbo (looking at greddy)
e-manage/powerfc

things got

high mount manifold
rb26

now i know i'm gonna get people saying you cant get all that for 2G's but i have connections ....... i will strip the block down over the weekend so i will know more then!!!

the rb20 as is now

i'm just after pricing this little lot

full gasket kit
water pump
n1 oil pump
piston rings
full race bearing kit
tomei rod bolts

and it comes in at just under 2k.... well happy

as far as i know the water pump needs doing, new piston rings or more than likely a re bore and over sized pistons to bring compression back up to a more healthy figure, i will be splitting the block to see once i,ve it out.
