hey mate you should line hone/bore when u use arp main studs. take that crank out asap mate and get it line bored. you tend to stretch the caps and block out of round with studs. as your using a gurdle and not caps you should 100% get it line bored or checked out at a shop asap
I'm sceptical of the Maxpeedingrods claim. CP pistons in the US also make Nitto rods and pistons. All in-house manufacturing. The only other major name that comes to mind is Spool, and for the same price spool rods are seen in RBs making upwards of 1200WHP or more if you opt for the I-beam over H-beam. Where even on MPR website they claim "up to 800" so even if the same material, they dont advertise any hardeneing of the rods and quality assurance such as ultrasonic testing (to see for impurity in the metal that could lead to cracking)
Got my first project car today. Jaguar daimler 1993. Yes its real. And it was only 1850 because the owner didnt have time or care for it no more. it ran perfect and was SO good. needs paint work from sitting in finnish soil
Maxpeedingrods even has H-Beam rods for the Volvo B230 for like $150 USD cheaper than I was expecting based on my recent research. Kinda agree with other comments it may be kind of suspicious, but I want to believe.
Turns out you are correct and the machine shop has ordered the incorrect pistons! You've saved me man. If there is a way I can send you a T shirt to show my appreciation please let me know! Cheers
It was behind the turbo. Impossible to see from the top and from the back. You would’ve had to jack it up and take a look but I didn’t because it was cheap regardless of a blown motor
you have used the incorrect pistons for a neo they are different to a r33 s1/s2 rb25det piston as the neo head has a smaller combustion chamber and actually has little recess for valve clearance in the piston to stop the valve hitting the piston also piston heights are different check your oem ones your removed man
@@alexs5969 I get that, but 400hp at the wheels is like 470 at the engine, im not necessarily saying swap but maybe buy a VE ss or something, im sure with all the car, parts, repairs and machining he'd be at 20k anyway
@@joshford3960that's objectively a downgrade honestly 😂 most of us buy Skylines because they also handle amazing and look awesome.

This will make bulk power! Thanks for the Collab Rex! Can’t wait to hear it
@@TURBOTRISTO thanks for the help TT!!
Very in depth and informational this should give a lot of diy guys confidence in giving building an engine a go 👌🏽
Please make sure when you do the head you show the cam and valve spring install I need to do it on my Neo and I’m not really confident enough yet
Glad this beast is getting the engine that it deserves, She also needs rolling anti lag
Finally another skyline vid ❤
cant wait to see this finished
Thanks man me too!
Arnt you meant to tunnel bore when you do arp main studs ??

nice to see more skyline content. Cant wait for more
Props on giving this a go bud , it’s the only way you learn !

Always grind the ring towards the inside of the ring not the outside

Super keen to see how this turns out. I'm currently in the process of building a non-neo 25 with a forged bottom end.
watched the whole video with ads and watched all no skipping
Legendary 🥰
bro i am so jealous, i frikkin love the r32 and RBs, im so excited for the day it runs 🏎💨
Keep it up Rex looks absolutely beautiful
Nice one bro good to see the line gets some love now all you need is a project for the rb20
Nothing wrong with the Max Speeding rods conrods, they are actually well made, put em in and forget about em 👍
Excited for the finished product Rex!
Thanks Mohamed!!
i was wondering when the r32 would come back builds looking sick
It looks amazing rex looks like it come off the showroom floor
I’m Liking this upload schedule
Great vid bro. Really enjoyed it.
Keep up with the content, love your videos been watching your channel for years now
Cheers mate! Been a crazy ride! Appreciate u staying 😍
Can’t wait until this is done
Cranking out the videos, loving it
r32 build video finally 😭😭
Been waiting a long time for another skyline upload! Lesgo 🔥
When you forgot about the squirters I panicked ahah

Another great video dude, keep them coming
Never lubricate behind the bearing caps as it may encourage "spinning" a bearing in the block = bad
He didn’t don’t stress
@TURBOTRISTO phew, glad to hear TT! I was kinda giving a PSA for others watching too just incase haha 🍻
Gonna be a weapon!
Damn, I gotta say, that is one nice looking car
Love the 32 content bro
Good onya rex for having a go !!
i cant wait to see that con rod fly through your bonnet
Mannnnnn I hope not 😱
Awesome video mate
Awesome work!
Good on ya mate awesome video
Wrong pistons for the neo rip
Uh oh, how so???
@RexH they are s1 s2 rb25 your comp ratio is going to be messed up
Damn I didn’t order them. I’ll look into it thanks mate
Turns out you are correct and the machine shop has ordered the incorrect pistons! You've saved me man. If there is a way I can send you a T shirt to show my appreciation please let me know!

@@RexH hell yeah brother no worries at all
Been waiting 2 months for this vid😂
It's goin to be a nice car that, love the paint,
i was here, much love 💯
I love engine builds
Awesome vid bruv
Thanks bruv!
did you get the bore thickness measured?
Bro that’s dope
Cheers brother
lookin good
Crazy you didn’t see that rod sticking out the side of the block when you bought it 🤔
It was behind the turbo. Impossible to see from the top and from the back. You would’ve had to jack it up and take a look but I didn’t because it was cheap regardless of a blown motor
i swear ive seen that skyline on the road before

What wheel and tire size are you running, i dont know much about skylines
Bugger bro hoooly hectic
Yeahhh Rex!
Ms engines in yianis court springvale is a awsome machinist!!
Mick is his name !!
Look him up one of the best in the buissness!!
What do you do for work bro you a mechanic or something?
Love Tristan
TEMU HOT TANK ,PARTS $$$$
How much did the paint cost?
You using assembly lube on surfaces rex ?
Yessir !!
hey mate your end float on the dial gauge was 0.01 not 0.10 just letting u know
-
I just checked and you are 100% correct! Thanks bro i'll mention it next video
I think I'm finally realising that the car was stolen
if u can get hks oil
$B mentioned
be extremely careful with ur bearing clearences mate
W
Im sure you couldve got a holden v8 and achieved 400hp at the wheels cheaper for an engine that doesnt have oiling issues
Except then you'd have to spend more money on converting everything to make the swap work. 25det Neos will make 400hp easily even on stock bottom end
@@alexs5969 I get that, but 400hp at the wheels is like 470 at the engine, im not necessarily saying swap but maybe buy a VE ss or something, im sure with all the car, parts, repairs and machining he'd be at 20k anyway

was the skyline stolen in the past? a bit unclear i think you should clarify it, haven’t really heard you mention it being stolen before
He mentioned it in a couple of video before this one
nice
They are some nasty pricks around. Think they have the right to steal whatever they want.
no offence man but why do you keep saying my stolen R32, like I totally enjoy the videos but now it's just becoming click bait about you keep saying stolen R32
He should just name it "stolen" at this point
Well because it is click bait, and if you look at all the big names on this platform it's a must do for engagement
Honestly, that's not enough clickbait to be bad. It's isn't even technicality clickbait
@@jeddllau yea it's not big click bait, but every video he makes about the car it's alawys "my STOLEN r32" it's like we get, it was, at one point stolen
@lowact1997 it's a necessary evil to get new viewers in. It's minor enough clickbait to keep me watching and just ignore it.
the akward laugh everytime he talks about how expensive it is.... peak Skyline ownership right there
No way, a Nissan stagea sedan! Never seen one of those before!
zuuuutuuuuutuuu
Mate I hope you lubed the shit out of your bearings before dropping in the crank!
lessgo
screw the skyline, seen enough of them on youtube, bring back the au =D
First comment
Nuh uh
Nuh uh I am 😂@@Bidoof-kylekable
It looks very so generic . The boring grey is so predictable
Forget about bulk power and RB25, Come have a look at my RB20 powered R33 for inspo on building the 20. Will be driving drift X this Nov 23/24
jz or rb?
RB baby
Early gang
Dudes using crap parts to build the Skyline like its a junkie Civic
Acl race bearings very good!!
First
close second ;)
Like if u see
I see :)
TRUMP 🎉
Does the Rb 25 have piston squirters ??
Sure does !
