hi, im finding it hard to get someone to build my rb30det. Alot of mechanics i have heard good things about are to busy and have up to a six month wait!!! so could anyone recommend anyone who i could get to build this motor?

I already have the rb25 head, 30 bottom end, forged pistons, rings, revs h beam rods, turbo and some other little things, i want it to be capable of producing over 500hp, so i need some who really knows what they are doing, so any sugestions would be much appreciated.

thanks

you are a bad man!!!

BTW, before i forget just wanted to let you know there is an Oran Park GP track day on 5th of March. It will be awesome, small numbers, lots of track time and pro instructors too if wanted. if you want to come along just pm me.

Do you want the engine built and you (or someone else) fits it to the car?

Or do you want it built and fitted?

If you just want a machine shop to build the engine I may be able to help, PM me for details.

:D cheers :)

MRC @ castle hill, used to work at UAS to

Had a VL with somthing like 430HP @ the wheels, rb30 with 25 head.

Also rebuild my RB30DET putting out 330HP @ the wheels with a shitty auto box.

Ah, I know Mark - nice guy and great mechanic

If the recommendation came from someone like Mark then go for it :D

Yes, great mech.

Like i said, got him to rebuild by RB30det when it blew, it was due for it. Was running 17PSI with stock internals apart from a cam with 235K's on the clock. one day while driving my gear box f#cked up and the car just reved out as the rev cut was not set on the microtech. Then came the smoke, HAHA.

Got it rebuilt with tomei head gasket, arias pistons etc...

mark now owns a couple of XR6's, one turbo putting out arround 3XXkw @RW

Anyho....

BLITZ- a guy who was a mechanic for rick shaw, he seems to know what he is talking about

plus ive heard of people making big reliable power and still using standard rods, and you would think REV would be better then stock rods!

    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly. 
    • That worked out PERFECTLY! Thank you big time to JJ. He was able to swap me his stock diff. He drove all the way to me as well. Killer! Removal & install was pretty straightforward. The diff itself is HEAVY. So that’s a 2 man job.  Man does the car drive nice now! Couldn’t have worked out any better 👌
