RB26DET powered S15 (bodyworxs-projects)

[TriniGT]

Nice is that WV2 Pewter grey on your S15? Also, are you running A/C and what sort of clearance do you have for an aluminum radiator and clutch fan, is it possible at all to keep the clutch fan setup?

hi...

its called (in germany) indiumgrau metallic , from mercedes , code 963.

yeah...i was talking to many people and all say thats impossible still running the a/c. i want to show them all thats possible. most people who doing a rb swap use really big radiators and electrical push type fans.

i use a (only) 25mm radiator for s14/s15 sr20. i reweldet it and use electrical fans. its impossible running lutch fan setup (i would think that). another problem is the crankpulley. its really close to the radiator. i heard that a rb25 pulley would fit and its a bit shorter but u have to move all stuff a few cm´s back.

i´m sure the 25mm radiator and the 2x 12" fans would be enought for my setup. if not i would remove the a/c, use a bigger radiator and push type fans.

Just ensure you have some sort of shroud setup for the fans otherwise I am sure you will get overheating issues.

today we fit a few parts to the car like radiator, afm´s, airfilters and so on.

we got some parts back from welding like from the exhaust and from my spoilerfeets some brackets for give my spoiler still adjustment.

then we fit the frontbumper to the car...because i dont want to peint it before fitting it without headlights. cost me 1 hour fitting it perfectly.



my english isn´t the best so i let talking pictures.

This build is absolutely amazing! I'm in awe of you, I hope that one day i can have a car as amazing as this. Cannot wait to see it finished

 

[bodyworxs]

i think the rear would look MUCH better if i could buy new clear headlights but i dont have any money axpect the money for finishing the paint and engine .

 

[TriniGT]

This is how my rear is with the Origin back bumper and my DRFT tails,

When it was on my Spec R S15, oh how I miss her

[BoostAddict]

Ja, bitte abarbeiten =)

 

[bodyworxs]

problem ist, dass ich derzeit weder geld noch zeit habe und das auto seit letzter woche fast 900km entfernt steht bzw ich umgezogen bin.

 

[faxij]

:/ wo bist du denn jetzt ganz hingezogen? nimmste das auto da nicht mit hin, oder keinen schraub/abstellplatz?

I don't mean to be a spoil sport guys, but could we keep the conversation in English please. Reason for this being that it is an international forum in the English language and obviously us that are less fluent in other languages than yourselves find it impossible to read.

Cheers

 

[bodyworxs]

sry....

so...for all other guys...



i was telling him, that i dont know when i could finish the car because i change the city where i live now and its 900km away from the car.



i went to saarbrücken....900km away from berlin. dont have space here for the car and the biggest problem is, that its impossible getting the car dont to there because its too low for a trailer .

try to find a way getting it down to here....at the same time i try to selling it.
