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

    • Kinda glad I never got to this ..    https://www.facebook.com/groups/1483859159195077
    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
