Can anyone help? I have a company here that can make them custom, and I have only found a few companies that make h-beams for them, but I wanted to see if anyone has a set they might like to suggest. Thanks!

How much power do you want to make ? the standards go way over 300rwkw

I am sure you can track down eagle rods in america. Also www.hioctane.com.au or something like that they are guys based in Sydney they sell various brands, talk to Ian if you ring them.

pauter.com

Can anyone list some links to some sites for RB30 performance rods? Thanks.

RB in USA

Depends on the power target. For over 750 bhp we use Argo (www.argorace.com.au) for up to 750 bhp we use Spool (www.spoolimports.com). Being in the US, you really should have talk to Carrillo (www.carrillorods.com).

:) cheers :wave:

Also your in america I would be talking to some of the other obscure rod manufacturers like the indy car guys etc. depends on budget? guys that come to mind are oliver, manley, BME!!??

Just wondering, why this way around. could the Spool rods take more? or is this just a safe figure?

thanks

Hi Dalals, with engine componets I only recommend what I have actually done in real life. I am not going to say "should", or "might", "look good for" etc when it comes to engine components. I have seen an engine with Carrillos make 1100 bhp, and run 1/4's several times. I have actually used the Argo I Beam rods up to 950 bhp so I know that they are good for at least that much. I have only used the Spool H Beam rods up to 750 bhp, so I know they are good to that level. They may well handle more, when we have built an engine with them that makes more, then I will say that they handle more.

When you think about it, 750 bhp is close to 500 rwkw, rods that will do that for the price tha tSpool charges are very good value for my money.

:D cheers :D

How trustworthy would a set of custom billet (unforged) titanium rods, based on the rb30 rods plus some beefing up? I have access to some pretty good CNC machines at work and am very tempeted. What about titanium pistons and valves, retainers (oohh I am getting excited again)

    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
    • Yes sir am asking is there possible way from aem tuner from wiring pins 
    • Have you checked cam to crank timing and confirmed balancer marks are correct?
