considering the good old holden 6 is the same bolt up pattern as the rb30 (bolt in) it wouldnt be hard at all....the gearbox, and driveline would be the hard bit though.

Oh and the fact torries like to slide the arse around when u need to do a fast stop aint that fun :P

ive been in my mates LJ back to back with shit tyres vs. bridgstone bf goodrich's

He actually slammed the brakes as someone stopped in front of us, the car did its usual tail slide, and crash...bye bye 1/4 panel.

He then got the BF's about a week later and almost had the same sh*t happen, someone stopped right in front of us. This time it was a little chirp and a lockup, from which we pulled straight up. Almost a neck snapper...great rubber those BF's (lookm sexy with the white writing on the tyre too (ol school)

Remeber to box up the rear end to get the good takeoff's too :O

thats not very open minded im sure if done properly its fine. perhaps u just dont like the idea of crossbreeding jap engines with aussie cars.

im certain that v8s can be worked and dropped in to produce the same power as a rb30det and how many toranas have this done so why not a r30det?

Edited by r31turbo
surely it would be a disaster? huge power in a flexy, live axle, underbraked aussie car?

The LJ/LC what ever I'm not right up with it all tend to twist their chassis with a decent amount of power.

There used to be one around when I was growing up with a mild 308 in it that went to the drags and came back crabbing down the road. :P

Providing its done properly I can't see a problem.. Personally.. I would prefer a nice little VT 5ltr dropped in it.

They were only ever meant for a 6cyl racing @ bathurst :D V8's in torries are just plain stupid...they go like a shower of sh.. though. All my mates had, or knew of, some seriously worked torries including the guys from GTR supplies (yes it was around before skylines) who built some monsters.

I always said my dream project was an injected 5lt in a lc gtr shell... :PBJ:

Download and isntall microsofts resizer powertool here < Resizer 512kb >

Then select the photo's you want while holding down shift right click your mouse button on any of the selected pictures and select resize pictures from the popup menu. Then use the newly created resized pictures to upload.

It will default to 640x480 which is fine but 800x600 is nicer. :D

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
