Hey Guys

Well I'm planning on a new project car for myself ocne i get rid of my onevia *plug*

So anywho, as it stands, I'll be chasing just an S13 Silvia. The plan is to throw in an RB30 with a 25 head on it :D

I'd like to hear from anyone who has attempted this or anyone who can provide some info on it for me

Cheers

Chris

doo it doo it..

don has an RB30DE with twin throttle bodies, and badr33 has just done it as well... both with quite nice results...

from what i gather the power to cost gains arent overly good, but its damn good to have something different.

i'd honestly like to do this conversion hey go all out with this motor would be sweet. RB26 head, individual trumpets, light weight pistons and all the supporting gear for a good 8,9 maybe even 10k redline would be sweeeeeeeeeeeeet. just not the price though :D

Cheers man that was really helpful! Anyone else like to share some experiences?

And another question - would it be basically the same having an rb25de with an rb30 bottom end as opposed to an rb30 with an rb25de head?

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
