Yes please do a complete vid on all the best fluids to use for a street gtr. You go on the forums and you get dozens of different answers for gearbox, diff, engine oils etc.
@@MotiveVideo and coming from you we know the advice given will be sound and correct. Honestly b4 I acquired mine I thought JDM was the best and only, but after personal experience with Aussie and NZ parts I must say you blokes really know what yall are doing 💯
@@MotiveVideo I really second doing that video.

It would be great in your oil series to demonstrate difference in various 10w60s (and very similar weights), even if brand names blanked out. Its difficutl to decide on what 10w60 for my SR when you see the huge difference in data sheet numbers. Hpr10, hpr15, nulon 10w60, nulon racing 10w60, edge 10w60. Would be awesome

Oil change time...Can someone enlighten me as to why to use 10W60 as advised above? I know more info coming but would be great to know before my oil change!! Been using 10W50.

Here in my country 10-60 is used for racing (rally racing) and works great because of the beating it takes and withstands, lower grade oils (example 10-40) looses too much viscosity and pressure drops too much when hot damaging friction surfaces. 10-60 will not have that problem, however... 10-60 for a mostly street driven (mildly driven) car can rob you a small amount of power (fuel efficiency) because you wont be able to heat it up that much and its higher viscosity tends to slow down moving parts inside. So application is what really matters. A 5-50 or 5-60 would also be very interesting as the "5" would help oil get to all friction surfaces quicker when the engine is cold, preventing wear.
I beg to differ on the HICAS being junk in high power cars, in my friends R33 GTST, Hicas has kept us going straight when the DOT legal R compound tires let loose at 100km/h pushing ~600hp. If your Hicas is in great condition it helps quite a bit, combine that with boost by gear and it is way better than anything else.
I’ll have my very own gtr pretty damn soon. It’s a 91 and I’m trying to find out every single thing I can. Want it to be my daily. Even though the famous gen of gtr is now legal here in America the 91 is just hard to explain how alluring it’s become to me since finding one for sale n speaking to the seller. Might even put my tuning journey on the tube for whatever experience I can leave to others from my mistakes. Thanks for these videos man.
A stage 1 mod that was popular back in the day was 15 psi boost front pipe 3and a half inch exhause ecu tune and rotating the cams.It revved to 9000 rpm produced 430 hp and did 11.8 on the quarter
Somehow I missed this video. Curious to know your thoughts on the diff gears now your running a 3.2lt. I find the stock R34 gearing too short, and could do with a 7th gear.
2 questions.. Do you know if adjustable cam gears are just as beneficial on NON vvti JZ engines? And What are your thoughts about running water/meth injection with normal fuel instead of going E85
Should I go th400 or a sequential? I currently have a getrag swap (r32 gtr) it's amazing to drive but it is limiting what my block can make, 680whp atm limited torque
@@MotiveVideo Yeah its why I originally got the getrag to keep it Manual but it's now Nitto 3.2 paired with a G42 1200 hence the limited torque do th400 become boring to drive on the street?
@@ayycee5303 had it over 600whp for 5 yrs 2.8L than moved onto 3.2L never had an issue with it the stock 5spd manual was rubbish tho I'd worry about that I've just never been an auto person my Evo 3 has a sequential it's great but at same time is annoying
@@MotiveVideo I get it, and I am here with an open mind. I have an RB26 and oil weight is something that I can scour the internet for hours and find 100 replies. Id like to know why though. Why is the thicker weight beneficial? I am all ears. These motors are getting more expensive by the minute and mine now sits with a dry sump while waiting for your reply ;)
It will be interesting to see the oil video. Im planning on running 5w30 or 5w40 in my 25/30, mainly because my cold oil pressure is way to high for my liking. And whilst i completely understand your point, even on the Castrol, Penrite or Nulon websites, they dont actively recommend 10w60 at all for the RB? Its either 10w40 or 0/5w40 (minus the RB30). The factory spec is 7.5w30, which roughly works out to a 10w30
They’re recommendations are based in stock cars with no mileage. Who cares about cold oil pressure. Warm it up before you drive hard anyway. We have 100+psi on start up.
30 weight oil thins to dangerously low viscosity at around 250-260 degrees Fahrenheit (oil temp). Spirited driving will get there quickly. I run an oil cooler and 10w50 weight oil and have no cold start issues, in fact no issues at all.
First, you have to spend less time trying to be funny on your keyboard and more time doing research on the difference between gel, which Andrew doesn’t use, and styling mud 👍
@@MotiveVideo Hmm, that sounds like it would take long enough that all my hair will have fallen out by then. I'll just assume it's the same Scxhwarzkopf Taft tub of gel I used to use back in high school in the mid 90s when I had that same style.
i have been watching a rb20de gts for a few weeks aiming to buy wanting a car and i only want 250hp - 300hp as my goal on a budget any tips or advice i can use to make the rb20 work out
Can you explain why people out there are swapping the RB26 block for RB30.. meaning is there a problem with the RB26 bottom end or is it just for the added stroke?
Not a GT-R but I’ve always been impressed how quick an S2000 feels when I’m in one because of the close-ratio 6 speed, and it is deceptively quicker than you would think. I’ve caught quite a few off guard.
In my opinion the S2000 is one the most well balanced cars to date that came from the factory, light weight and rear wheeled drive, theyre such a blast to drive and a definite underrated car.

Should be another series or single video for the GTST/GTT guys. I'm sure there's some slight differences for the RWD skylines that many would love to hear about.
Front diff one is interesting. My 600whp gtr feel brutal on the street. But don’t want to crack another block and I heard it contributes. Is this true?

First, you have to spend less time trying to be funny on your keyboard and more time doing research on the difference between gel, which Andrew doesn’t use, and styling mud 👍
@@MotiveVideo Hmm, that sounds like it would take long enough that all my hair will have fallen out by then. I'll just assume it's the same Scxhwarzkopf Taft tub of gel I used to use back in high school in the mid 90s when I had that same style.
Yeah but fades and modern mullets are for flogs..soo maybe being back the 90’s so the mainstream aren’t trying to copy broke wannabe bikies?
@@ayycee5303 Don't have a fade or a mullet because I'm not a flog, so thanks!
Twin vs Single made me cry.... thank your germany for TÜV and laws...
I have gone from 4.11 diff ratios to 4.3 on a 5speed box and it made it feel more responsive
It definitely does
What did you use the 4.3 from?

i have been watching a rb20de gts for a few weeks aiming to buy wanting a car and i only want 250hp - 300hp as my goal on a budget any tips or advice i can use to make the rb20 work out
pull it out and drop a 25det in
Can you explain why people out there are swapping the RB26 block for RB30.. meaning is there a problem with the RB26 bottom end or is it just for the added stroke?
Extra capacity mate
Capacity
Great!!!
Whats the cause to the lower voltage to the fuel pump?
Crappy wiring from factory
Congrats on reaching the 150k sub mark...now it's time to up the boost and scream to that 200k mark!!👍
Not a GT-R but I’ve always been impressed how quick an S2000 feels when I’m in one because of the close-ratio 6 speed, and it is deceptively quicker than you would think. I’ve caught quite a few off guard.
In my opinion the S2000 is one the most well balanced cars to date that came from the factory, light weight and rear wheeled drive, theyre such a blast to drive and a definite underrated car.
Its so funny we come across the fuel pump efficiency as my car has trouble building pressure at first when i go to start it. def gonna get that fixed
Why don't you recommend Tremec 6 speed transmission like the Magnum ?
no one has made an adaptor to put transfer case on the back and most ratios are not great
Perfect list Andrew, with the number of R35s getting around now and getting modified would you consider doing tech features on them?
Maybe. The fact we have never
built our own one will make it harder to “validate” but we could do one in conjunction with some workshops.
Content from you will be more factual and unbiased compared to shops trying to sell their products. Particularly like American content and their magical horsepower figures

10w60 for the win!
Love the video
Can’t you make one for the RB25DET Neo please! 😊
Come on Andrew. Quit pulling your punches. Tell us what you really think. Love ya work!
Should be another series or single video for the GTST/GTT guys. I'm sure there's some slight differences for the RWD skylines that many would love to hear about.
I was just thinking this. I think the GTST probably suffers from the same issue with rear camber curve as the GTRs.
Motive doesn't care about those peasants!
@@mulishapatrol they're only peasants to y'all cuz y'all don't mess with rwd
Front diff one is interesting. My 600whp gtr feel brutal on the street. But don’t want to crack another block and I heard it contributes. Is this true?
Having the entire diff contributes due to twisting, not just having and LSD or not
Can u guys do top tips and tricks for ca18det s13 chasis? Best bang for the bucks upgrades to make it stronger and reliable not necessarily powerful?
I hope the series would have a price point, power level, and whatever. Is comparable to suspension , etc etc
